I never have any problem with the main Google results page. It is easy once you know how it is layed out. Hit the number 2 in the numbers row until you hear results. This goes to level 2 headings. There will be Search Options, possibly Sponsored Results, and Results. Then each result starts with a level 3 heading, so press 3 to hear their titles.
