I am trying to find the webpage where the author of "Luggage by Kroger" mentioned his sales on Itunes. But all I see at the top are the actual locations to buy the book! I know where to buy the book. And then the search degenerates. I know Google knows where the fricken website is but I am not seeing it.
Google is becoming as useless as teats on a boar, to coin an old Arkansas phrase.
I use a different search engine altogether. I would get so frustrated not being able to find what I'm looking for I quit too shhh, I won't tell
I must agree that since Panda finding just a simple answer has become almost impossible.
Before Panda, the 'ways to refine your search' worked well for me in Google, now I find it more time consuming to search after a search for the information I want.
It use to be, that you found what you were looking for in the top results, now it takes more time to 'dig out' the info. I hope the next update by Google 'whenever' will be an improvement.
Since Panda searching google has become a nightmare. I reckon it's going to take a year or so for it to settle down, hopefully in our favour. In the mean time Bing is working for me, so you could try that.

Okay, after 10 days of farting around and squabbling in the forums, killing time while I waited for Google to do a U-turn and restore my traffic (which it didn't do), I took a deep breath and went through all my hubs and did some general editing. Nothing magical, or too drastic. I...

Lately, I've noticed some Hubbers Have Their Picture along side Google Search Results for their Hubs. How is this done? Seems like it may be helpful to entice people to click on a Hub link in Google.
