As an internet user not a webmaster, have any of you noticed crappy search results lately? The last week or so I have done some searches and the results being displayed were not accurate or related to what I searched for at all. Usually if you have a question, you can Google the entire question and find people that have asked the same question. The last week or two I have noticed these bad search results and I am wondering if it's due to the most recent updates. Searching for a question, with the words "how to" in them, all I got was products for sale. What do you all think? Have you noticed any difference or am I just crazy? lol
Nope. Nothing changed for me, maybe cos of my search behavior? lol, as usual, my search results normally get me to Wikipedia.
Yeah, it seems like Google really favors Wikipedia lately. As for search results, if I'm not happy with Google results, I'll just try Yahoo.
Well, give this search engine a try, pretty good. http://duckduckgo.com/ DuckDuckGo does not collect or share personal information.
Google been blending and blending as many variety of result related to the topic. For it me is getting better but not applicable for every topic.
Ya, does seem to be mixed results. a few of the things I searched for though didn't have anything related lol
Hey I did not notice anything like that... also i tried searching for "How to" related term in google and the results showing up for me are pretty relevant.
Ya, might have just been the things I was searching for. When I searched my term it was only showing products for sale for 3 pages.
Hey it is also possible that it has something to do with your browsing history. Were you logged in when u were searching for the keywords and are those search results related to the things u might always keep looking for...??? what do u think??
