Why is NHSEO using yahoo and not google ?

[Davvit9]

I guess its an obvious question.

But I use google searches on SB so
why is NHSEO using yahoo and not google ?

Thanks

NHSEO can use either Yahoo, Google or Both. If you are using public proxies then the Setup Wizard will automatically set the search option to Yahoo only as you are unlikely to get any reasonable amount of usable proxies that work for scraping Google.

You can manually set it to use Google or both Google and Yahoo but it is generally better to stick with whatever settings the Setup Wizard sets.

I am using PRIVATE proxies, so maybe I should change it to use both ?

Could that be the reason for the low number of links ?
(see my other post )

Many thanks for your help.

You could use Both if you have private proxies. The Setup Wizard would actually set the option to Both if you entered in Private Proxies.
