Google Confirms Removal Of Extra Site Search Box Within Search Results
If you’re an avid Google Search user, you must have noticed an extra search box pop up, each time you try to explore something.
It always seemed like the search giant was encouraging users to dig down further and search for answers from specific websites. Thankfully, that site-linked search box will no longer be found because as per Google, the usage is not that high.
Google confirmed the news through a blog post where it says that it’s been there for more than a decade. With time, they noticed the usage kept falling. So to make search more simple, they’re getting rid of this visual element starting next month.
Some might not be too happy as you could always use that extra search box as shortcuts to look for something inside a website. After the deadline arising in November, Google vows to not display the box in any other nation or language.
If they didn’t see this announcement from the search giant, many users feel they wouldn’t have ever noticed that it disappeared because that’s how less the usage is. As a whole, it’s a tiny tweak when compared to others that Google makes across its search engine. In case you forgot, the company is leaning more towards AI and shuffling the team that heads Search.
