Since the recent launch of the web site, searches for “the new hampshire independent” on Google yield no relevant results. That same search on Bing, Yahoo! or DuckDuckGo results in the very first result being this web site.

Searching for “thenhindependent.com” on Google does yield some links to the web site. So Google did indeed crawl the web site, it just appears as though its algorithms decided the content should not be listed with any kind of priority on its web site.

This type of behavior by Google is nothing new and has only increased in recent years, therefore it is our recommendation to use a different search engine if you value the quality and diversity of information you receive in your web searches.
