The world has started moving pretty fast, and with just a click on Google, the newest stories are at your fingertips. From algorithm changes to AI overviews, it’s easy to get lost in a sea of information, albeit often repetitive. To make things easier for us and you, Google has a hidden feature, preferred sources. Letting you choose which news outlets and websites you’d like to appear often in your curated Top Stories, it launched earlier this year in India. If you are searching for the latest happenings and news through Secret Mumbai on Google, here’s how it works.
How to add Secret Mumbai as a preferred source
The easiest way to do it would be to click this link, add our URL, and then tick the box that says “Secret Mumbai”.

You can also update your preferred sources through Top Stories. To do it:
- Search for a news topic and click on the icon to the right of Top Stories
- Search and select as many preferred sources as you like (such as Secret Mumbai *cough cough*)
- Refresh your results
