The amazing part is that you’ll probably get the same site a month or two from now. I am disappointed that Google doesn’t have a blocklist feature & you’d think they’d want the training data (although I imagine abuse could be a severe challenge).



They could at least let their users blacklist sites from their personal search results.

There are extensions that do this though, thank God.


Which extensions would you recommend for this?


uBlacklist allows manual blacklisting from Google Search. Somewhat useful for me.


uBlock origin in combination with a list like this one:

One possible reason that Google doesn't offer a blocklist is that Google only provides a limited number of results per query. Given Google typically shows more than one result from the same domain, so with a blocklist, it would actually have to devote resource to find results from different domains.
