A new Google feature lets you choose which publishers you want more of in your Search results, offering you a more personalised experience.
The ‘preferred sources’ feature lets you customise your results and by selecting RNZ as yours, you’ll see more of our articles in Google Top Stories and Search results, which means more of our great journalism.
As New Zealand’s independent non-commercial public media organisation, RNZ serves as a platform for topics that matter to New Zealanders, delivering a diverse range of content that reflects who we are for over 100 years.
To make sure you see more of RNZ’s content in search results It’s really simple; just click here and type RNZ into the box, tick the box next to rnz.co.nz, and you’re done.
Alternatively you can:
- Open Google and search for any topic, e.g. “NZ news”
- Click on the Cards star icon on the right of Top Stories
- Search for RNZ and tick the box
- Click “Reload results”
Once you select sources, those publishers will appear more often and more prominently in the Top Stories or the dedicated “From your sources” section of the Search results page – it’s that easy.
