DuckDuckGo: These are bangs - and how to set them up

With bangs, DuckDuckGo has a very special mechanism for page views and on-page searches. Our guide explains how it works and shows how to set it up.

Bangs allow advanced access and search functionality via DuckDuckgo.

DuckDuckGo is not only a particularly secure search engine, but also offers innovative features.

DuckDuckGo: Set up bang - this is how it works

With the help of a bang, your page can be entered without entering the complete URL. The necessary input looks like this:

• "!name of the page", so for example "!amazon"

It is important that you make this input on DuckDuckGo.com. In addition, the function can be used to search on specific pages, and this is convenient. For example, you can use Bang input to search for specific products in an online store. An overview of the possible commands can be found here.To make this work for your site, you must first set up the Bang. Proceed as follows:
