People come to Google to find information quickly, understand complex topics and to parse facts from fiction. Google Search helps people find high-quality information from around the world, from a variety of diverse and credible sources, and find new perspectives to help them better understand the world. But sifting through all of the content available on the web can feel overwhelming, especially when you're trying to determine what information you can rely on.
International Fact-Checking Day on April 2 is a call to action – because in this day and age, nearly everyone has found themselves needing to put on their own fact-checking hat to verify a claim or check a source. Everyone should be empowered with the tools they need to find information they can trust. That’s why we build features to help you evaluate the information you come across online while expanding the range of helpful information you can find.

When you search on Google, you probably see results from a number of websites and sources that you recognize – maybe it’s your favorite store or a blog you read regularly.

With this context, you can make a more informed decision about the sites you may want to visit and what results will be most helpful for you. ... '
