Google Web Search Only

Generate permanent links that exclude AI Overviews and Snippets.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is "Google Web Search Only"?

It is a specific search mode that forces Google to display only traditional text-based website links, removing AI-generated summaries and other widgets.

2. How does this tool disable AI Overviews?

It utilizes the udm=14 URL parameter, which is Google's official identifier for the "Web" filter tab.

3. Is this link permanent?

Yes. As long as Google supports the Web filter, any URL generated with this tool will consistently provide the same non-AI layout.

4. Does this affect search rankings?

No, it only changes how the results are displayed on your screen. The organic ranking of websites remains the same.

5. Why use this instead of the standard search?

Standard searches are often cluttered with ads, "People Also Ask" boxes, and AI summaries. This provides a cleaner, faster interface for research.

6. Can I use this as my default browser search?

Yes, you can add https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14 as a custom search engine in Chrome or Firefox settings.

7. Does it work on mobile?

Absolutely. The links generated work perfectly on Chrome for Android, Safari for iOS, and all mobile browsers.

8. What is the "udm=14" parameter?

UDM stands for "Universal Search Document Model." The value 14 specifically triggers the "Web" results view introduced in 2024.

9. Does this block Google Ads?

While it removes most widgets and AI, some sponsored text ads may still appear at the very top of the results, as they are part of the "Web" index.

10. Is my search data stored here?

No. This PHP script simply processes your query to build a URL and does not log or store any personal search history.
