How to make our search more effective?

Sometime when I search for some topics in search engines, I will find some web site that is relevant but not giving me the satisfied result. It seems like those webs are found below. Why is that?

This is because of the search engines indexing websites in bad places there are ways of doing searches to get what you need like

webmaster "forum"

that would and should pull up links that are all forums and related to webmasters

When I make a search for something specific, I try to use quotation marks. Sometimes, I put plus marks in between search terms to make them all appear in the search results. You may also want to use the search options. If you are interested in pulling up educational sites in the results, you may filter the them for those having a *.edu domain. These are just some of the things you can do.

I agree with you. Sometime, when I search for something, it will come out right or has some information that I don't want coming first. So, I have to try to be more specific with my wording.
