I can't explain it. The stuff I search for is sometimes esoteric, but it's still amazing how often I have to go to the fourth or fifth entry before I find something that is useful.

It is funny to me because when I am shopping or doing research I almost never click on the first link (unless it is obviously the best site for me) or three - I figure those are just the sites with the best SEO or best links and I am usually looking for either a bargain or something off the beaten path. I always take a gander at the top ones, but generally make my picks from farther down the page or even the second page. For fun I like to randomly pick like page 8 of Google results to see who is out there and might deserve some attention. I guess that is the small-business owner in me looking out for my own.
