Turns out removing the top million results from a search for Google... still returns google. Or google.com.au to be precise.

It's a cool idea, but I'm not sure it's working. I tried "american history" but it wouldn't return anything at all if I changed the "Remove the Top" dropdown.

I think remove results with my search term in the domain name and this would be perfect!

For example I searched for how to start a garden and I can guarantee that startagarden.com is junk. But indie see some useful advice from small blogs etc

It doesn't appear to work. I did a search for aspirin and the top match returned by this is #5 doing the same search with Google.

We're simply removing the top million (or what you select) sites. The results can be the same - it just means that that site isn't in the list of top one million sites on the web.
