avoiding yelp

''(Note: the formatting might not work correctly in a notification email, so please read here on the forum.)'' Hmm, most search engines recognize a negation syntax, so you can add that to your query. For example: ''Standard query results:'' https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffsb&q=tapas+bar&ia=web ''Site exclusion query results:'' Add '''-site:yelp''.''com''' to your query and resubmit it: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=tapas+bar+-site%3Ayelp.com&t=ffsb&ia=web Now... it's a bit of a pain to keep editing all your queries, so you could consider one of these options for the PC side, I don't think either of these will work on your iPhone/iPad: '''(A) Build yourself a custom version of the DuckDuckGo search plugin''' This add-on can help with that. You really only need it until you've built, installed, and tested your new search engine plugin. https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/add-custom-search-engine/ The query string would be something like https://duckduckgo''.''com/?q='''%s'''+-site%3Ayelp''.''com&t=ffsb&ia=web Once you have the new DDG search plugin added, you can make it your default search engine. See: [[Change your default search settings in Firefox]]. '''(B) Use an add-on to hide unwanted sites in your results regardless of how you searched''' I maintain a user script for this. It requires an extension such as Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey to inject the script into search engine results page.
