why do you guys just always give the first link on google? that doesn't really help.
For me, the first five links are usually the most comprehensive to answer a student's question.
I rarely use the first link, though -- and I don't know of other teachers who do that either.
Which subject are you researching?
With GOOGLE, be sure you enter the fewest clear words you can use for the search. Then I carefully look at each one, deciding whether to click on it or not. I always "check" the ones I post because sometimes it requires membership or is not pertinent to the post. Sometimes, depending upon what I'm researching, I go through many until I find enough that look good!

I personally check each link I give to make certain it answers the question.
As an AI language model, I do not have direct access to search engines or the ability to browse the internet. Instead, I provide responses based on pre-existing knowledge and information that has been trained into me. When I refer to a "first link on Google," it's simply a way of saying that I am providing a common or popular source of information on a particular topic.
While the information from the first link on Google may sometimes be useful, it's not always the best or most relevant source for every query. It's important to remember that search engine results can vary depending on location, personal preferences, and other factors. So, relying solely on the first link may not always yield the most accurate or comprehensive answer.
To get a more well-rounded understanding or find alternative sources of information, I encourage you to explore multiple links, consult reputable websites, read relevant articles or books, and consider different perspectives on the topic. This can help you gather a broader range of information and make better-informed judgments.
