Get smart with searching

People tend to think of searching the web as Google, but there’s more to it in

Safari than that. In Safari’s Search prefs are several search engines to choose from; DuckDuckGo is increasingly popular.

If the Include Safari Suggestions item is on, you’ll get results for basic queries in the search bar: start typing ‘weather’ and you’ll likely get a local forecast before you finish. Enter your favourite football team’s name to see its last match result.

You can even submit terms straight to a website’s search engine. To train Safari, visit a site and use its search engine; next time you start typing the site’s address, use to complete it, then add terms and press to go straight to the site’s search results.
