Did you try looking past page three in the search results?
And did you verify that at least a few of those pages contained the search terms?
Because in my experience that is not given:
- Google used to brag about crazy number of results but if I tried to go to page 5 it would admit there weren't any. I guess it was a naive bloom filter or something out of my league that caused it - and those that knew didn't care because it looked good for 99,999% of the users.
- Google has happily ignored double quotes for well over a decade now. Lately I've had some success by using the plus operator immediately in front of the doublequotes. Side note: I feel hesitant to write that. An UX-er from Google might notice it and fix that bug to make it consistent (consistently useless, that would be) :-/
These days I use DDG as default though and after being fooled a lot of times and one too many I don't even bother to look behind page 2 on Google since years ago.
