Making Forbes Your Digital Companion: A Simple Guide to Personalized News
In today’s fast-paced digital world, staying informed with trusted news sources has never been more important. Google’s innovative “Preferred Sources” feature now offers a way to ensure you see more content from publications you value most. This thoughtful customization tool allows you to shape your online experience, bringing Forbes’ award-winning journalism directly to your daily feed with minimal effort. By taking a few simple steps, you can ensure that Forbes’ unique blend of business insights, entrepreneurial wisdom, and wealth analysis becomes a regular part of your information diet – keeping you informed on the stories that matter most to your professional and personal interests.
When Google introduced the Preferred Sources feature, they recognized a fundamental truth about our relationship with news: we all have publications we trust and return to consistently. This feature works by allowing you to select specific publishers whose content you’d like to see more prominently in your Google search experience. Once you’ve selected Forbes as a preferred source, our articles will appear more frequently in the Top Stories section when you search for relevant topics. Additionally, Google creates a special “From Your Sources” carousel that specifically highlights articles from publications you’ve chosen to follow. This personalization ensures you don’t miss crucial business insights, market analysis, or profiles of innovative leaders that Forbes is known for delivering with depth and integrity.
Adding Forbes as a preferred source is remarkably straightforward. The most direct approach is visiting Google’s source preferences page, tapping the search icon, typing “Forbes,” selecting our publication from the results, and finally clicking “Take me to Google Search” in the bottom-right corner. Alternatively, you can add Forbes while browsing search results by looking for the Cards Star icon beside the “Top Stories” label. From there, simply search for Forbes, check the box next to our name, and click ‘Reload results.’ Either method takes less than a minute but transforms how you’ll interact with Forbes content moving forward. This simple action ensures our journalism becomes more visible in your personalized digital experience without requiring any additional apps or subscriptions.
By selecting Forbes as a preferred source, you’re ensuring our headlines appear more prominently and frequently in your feed, giving you consistent access to our unique perspective on business, technology, leadership, and wealth. Our commitment to breaking news means you’ll stay ahead on market movements, policy changes, and global business developments that could impact your decisions. Forbes’ century-long tradition of journalistic excellence means you’re prioritizing content that’s been carefully researched, thoughtfully analyzed, and presented with clarity. From exclusive interviews with world leaders to detailed analysis of emerging technologies, from profiles of rising entrepreneurs to insights from established business titans, Forbes brings you journalism that goes beyond headlines to provide context, perspective, and actionable intelligence.
