No good way to manage Google Search results — I keep seeing the same links across searches

I would pay for a way to manage my Google search results. I sometimes go to page 10, I make extra effort to avoid some websites, and I keep expanding my search words. If I search for something now and two minutes later refine the query, I don't want to see the results I already dismissed.

Either Google should have a way of not showing these results, or some kind of Chrome extension could remove/deprioritize them for me. Basically a "never show me this domain again" button that actually works across sessions.

The problem gets worse for niche technical queries where the same 5 SEO-optimized sites dominate every variation of the search.

I've been thinking about this too. The closest thing is uBlacklist (Chrome extension) which lets you block domains from search results. But it's manual — you have to block each domain one by one. What I really want is something that learns from my behavior. If I consistently skip past a domain, downrank it automatically. Like a personal search quality signal.

The real problem is that search has degraded so much that we need tools to fix it. I spent 30 minutes yesterday trying to find a genuine user review of a product. Every result was either affiliate spam or AI-generated content. Someone building a "curated search" layer on top of Google/Bing with community-driven domain quality scores could have something real.

I built something like this as a side project — a Chrome extension that tracks which results you click and which you skip, then reranks future results. Got about 500 users but the maintenance burden of keeping up with Google's DOM changes is brutal. The business model challenge: people expect search to be free.
