The Internet’s changing rapidly and it’s getting more difficult to find your favorite sites in search results. Between new algorithm updates and AI overviews, you miss out on great content from your favorite publishers. Make sure you never miss anything from Make Tech Easier by adding us as a preferred source on Google.
What Are Preferred Sources on Google?
Recently, Google announced a new way for readers and publishers to reconnect with each other. Preferred sources lets you add the sites you prefer to a list of news sources. These are then prioritized when Google shows you news.
You’ll still get results from other sources, but your favorite sources, such as MTE, get the preferred treatment. Now, instead of having to dig through AI summaries and results that are relevant, you get the news, tutorials, and more you love.
Add Make Tech Easier to Your Preferred Source in Google
First, log in to your Google account. This makes sure your preferred sources on Google sync between your devices. Plus, it saves your preferences for further searches. Preferred sources works on both desktop and mobile devices so you never miss the latest news from your favorite sites.
Perform a search for any news topic, such as iOS 26 or Android malware. Look for the Top News section in the search results. This may be at the top or near the middle of the search results page. Click the little square icon with the star just beside Top News.

In the Preferred Sources pop-up, search for MakeTechEasier to add us to your list. Check the box beside the source to add it to your preferred sources for Google search.

You’ll see all your added sources when you open the preferred sources pop-up to make it easier to manage them.
Another easy method is to just click here to add Make Tech Easier as a preferred source. Just make sure you’re logged into Google first. Check the box beside our name to add us.
