Instead of using Google for everything, users increasingly turn to platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest, and YouTube to search for specific content. These aren’t just platforms for mindless scrolling they\u2019re now powerful tools for seeking solutions, recommendations, and inspiration.<\/p>

These platforms return a curated mix of videos, Reels, posts, and stories, offering authentic, user-generated content tailored to the searcher’s intent.
