RE: Even Google ignores some searches
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Google struggles with niche searches for things that relate to pre-internet days. You have to remember that Google is only interested in giving you search results that make it money.
Interestingly, for one search I did recently (on a super-niche topic - I wanted to find out if anyone had posted a list or copy of the catalogue page of a particular range of model soldiers from the 1970's), Google gave me no relevant results, just a bunch of adverts for things in the same field currently but not the answer to my actual question. So I searched using Yandex, and even though that's a Russian search engine it gave me the answer immediately.
But when someone asks me something particularly annoying, I have been known to respond with "Well, I don't know the answer to that. But I do know a website which does. Are you near a computer ? Great. Just type in 'www . google . com'....." 😁
😂😂😂😂 that's a great response , I'm going to start using this in my own life. I can't wait for someone to ask me something and I point right at their phone to check Yandex. I actually didn't know Yandex was Russian app, that's something I've learned from you too
