- nervechannel 16y agoI've discovered you can also set up a Custom Search Engine, with no included sites (default to everything), and specifically exclude the sites you don't want. Then do all your searches through this. http://www.google.com/cse/ http://www.google.com/cse/ Usability-wise, though, it's not nearly as much use as a 'ban' button next to each result would be. But it shows Google already have the infrastructure and code that would allow this -- they just need to make it instant to use. EDIT: The other downside of this is you lose a load of bells & whistles, e.g. previews, "pages from the UK" (without typing), icons for images/news/etc. Time will tell if I miss those.
- srean 16y agoBut its not free, right ?
- duck 16y agoIt is free.
- JoachimSchipper 16y agoFrom the signup page: "Standard edition - ads are required on search pages" There's an ad-free premium version as well, but you definitely can get it for free.
- wccrawford 16y agoIt's free if you show ads on the pages. It costs money if you don't.
- nervechannel 16y agoBasic ad-supported version is free.
- tszyn 16y agoYes, it works and it's completely free. Here's an example Custom Search Engine I set up: http://www.antimoon.com/ce/ http://www.antimoon.com/ce/ It includes only sites which are known to use (mostly) good English. It's designed for English learners/teachers who want to find correct usage examples without risking exposure to Yahoo-Answers-style English.
