Bio,
Solution to the problem is simple, just don't click beyond the first few pages. Most people do not go beyond page 3.
Another way is to refine your keywords for example. If you are looking for a plumber in Ikeja, Lagos state, you should search for say 'plumbers in ikeja' instead of searching for 'plumbers' or 'plumbers in lagos state'.

I am sure other members have other tips

Okay Temi, ...so i have to narrow the keyword down so that i can have specific result on what am searching for.

Thanks

Yes biodun, narrowing the keyword down is one of the tricks

Another tip to narrow your search down. Say you are searching for 'web directory' but wanted to filter out certain words from search for example Free. You could write 'web directory' -free
