Well yet again I'm reduced to trying to use Google to find somewhere that sells something ridulously simple but which doesn't have a serial number (I wanted to buy some simple, cheap fruit as a gift).

Can I get good results? Can I ******** as like!

Serial numbers for consumer goods searches are great because they instantly slay most of my personal SERP demons - time wasting, spammy, 3rd rate, wannabe business directories or even more irritating - affliate schemes thinly disguised as "price comparison" sites.

Oh look a promising snippet attached to a result {clickety} joy yet another page stuffed full of spammy link text, and look just to add insult to injury they used UK as a keyword but don't actually service the country with the stuff I want.

Don't you just love those quality SERPs it spits out at times!

I swear that I would kill for something along the lines of an adult filter but which dropped out any site which spent more time linking to other people than it did with content, or had excessive amounts of links on one page.

Either that or start giving oranges "part-numbers"

{takes a deep breath, feels a lot better now thats out}

Yes except that I want companies that serve the UK (rather than just having UK in their burb) and I want the pricing in real money, not those funny s's with a line through them... :)
