How to get better Google Search results: add Guitar.com as a Preferred Source on Google
Have you been browsing your search results of late and wishing they could be a little bit more, well, guitar-y? Well, thanks to a new feature introduced by Google, you can now ensure that Google knows that Guitar.com is your top source for all the latest guitar news, reviews and features.
Available currently only to US- and India-based users, the new Preferred Sources feature lets you tailor your top news stories on Google based on your favourite media outlets – and you can do it in just a few clicks.
By adding Guitar.com to your Preferred Sources, you’ll be kept up to date with all the most important news from the guitar world, as well as our trusted expert reviews, in-depth artist interviews, and handy buyer’s guides. You won’t miss a thing, we’ll have you covered.
If you’re in the US or India, adding Guitar.com to your Preferred Sources is as simple as just clicking on this link right here, and ticking the box next to ‘Guitar.com’ – easy!

You can add as many other sources as you like, and can remove them at any time via the same method – though why you’d ever want less of Guitar.com in your life we simply cannot imagine.
And rest assured that you won’t only see Guitar.com news in your search results from then on – you’ll still get results from a variety of sources, this is just your way of telling Google that you like what we do and you want to see more of it when it’s appropriate.
As Google itself said in a statement: “When you select your preferred sources, you’ll start to see more of their articles prominently displayed within Top Stories, when those sources have published fresh and relevant content for your search.”

In practice, that means Guitar.com will appear more frequently in the “Top stories” and “From your sources” sections on Google – and what a lovely idea that is.

In the meantime you can ensure more Guitar.com in your news feed by following us on Google News – simply click this link and then hit the ‘Follow’ button on the top right.
