How to exclude a sites from Google search results

In search results sometimes on fist positions you see sites that won't let you see the content when you click the search results link - unless you sign up for an account (sometimes you even have to pay).

There is a way manually to exclude sich sites (domais) from search results.

Use "minus sign" that precedes the "site:" search operator.

-site:www.experts-exchange.com


That's how we tell Google to exclude the site/domain specified.

But what if you don't want to specify the domain to exclude every time by hand? In that case, set up a Google Custom Search Engine (http://www.google.com/coop/cse/) and specify during setup that you want your custom search engine to include results from the entire Internet. Then, after your search engine has been created, go to the Control Panel, choose the "Sites" tab, and from there you can specify as many domains as you like to exclude from every search. You'll get a custom search engine that you can tweak to your heart's content.

How Funny and Humorous - I found this site seeking a way to exclude experts exchange also. Just how much do they actually have to pay google to be ranked so highly to give us all the absolute and utters hits.
