Experts Exchange

December 16th, 2008

I really hate Experts Exchange - I'm not even going to provide a link to them because I don't want to help their page rank. Please do not sign up for this site. They take content normally available through other (free and hassle-free and pester-free) channels and hold it hostage so they can get your personal information and sell you ads. They have a right to do it. I have a right to hate it.

I created a javascript link that I use for tech searches that will pass the "-site:experts-exchange.com" parameter so I can prevent their hijacked content from popping up in my search results. If you want that link just drag this link Search Google (no EE) to your browser toolbar to use it too.

    One interesting thing is that they do have the answers for whatever you googled, you just have to scroll through 50 pages of their ads to see it. If you go all the way down to the very bottom, you'll find the whole thread listed...it just that no one does. I believe they have to do this or they'd get delisted from google. Are they still annoying? Definitely.
