I don't know if we can discuss your search problems well without knowing how you search, what sort of phrases you use, whether you use things like quotation marks, etc.

Good search engines today are consumer products and make searching as easy as possible. These days, you don't have to know much to get good results but if people do certain things such as misuse quotation marks, they may get poor results. Gene
