WOuld like to request this feature in SM.
Google had a blocked sites feature that didn't work out, and I imagine
the
reason was that it couldn't use text strings to successfully do so.
Example, I want to block ALL of pricegrabber.com from my search results,
because they give nothing but useless shopping results, trying to sell me
crap that I don't want. BUT cameras.pricegrabber.com would still show up,
even though I blocked pricegrabber.com in Google.
So it needs to be anything with the pricegrabber.com string in it.
CAN this be done on the browser level, instead of the search engine
level? So
that if I put the string pricegrabber.com in the blocked sites list,
NOTHING
will show up in my browser that has that string?
I tried this search on Google, it seemed to work fine:
cameras -site:pricegrabber.com
I didn't see any instances of cameras.pricegrabber.com in the results.
I typed "cameras" and didn't see any instances of
cameras.pricegrabber.com in the results either. That's a cool minus
trick for Google searches though, Paul. Thanks!
To the OP, I don't know of a browser level string block, but my firewall
(NetBarrier) has string blocking. None of the six web browsers I use
will ever see ".ad." or "facebook" e.g.
