First you need to ask, why everywo is using Google:
Habits and ignorance. The casual web user is just fine with what Google has to offer.
And besides that: Google is convenient and everywhere. To get rid of it it requires not only the will but also the technological skill that the common user just does not have.
And that leads to the answer of your question: Create an alternative that is easy to use,ofcourse, that can be implemented by just "a click" and is has to be everywhere. On your phone, TV and computer.

If it’s just fine for their needs, the they have all the relevant information they need. They know perfectly well finding another service would take considerable effort, might well lead to a worse experience, and there’s a high chance they’d switch back anyway. That’s an informed decision, not an ignorant one.
- azangru 5y agoSo why did everyone start using Google when before that everyone had been using Yahoo or AltaVista?
- robin_reala 5y agoBecause Google at the time was a dramatically better experience than AltaVista, and Yahoo was more of a directory than a search engine.
