Description

This extension simply adds -site:w3schools.com to your google.com and google.co.uk searches to prevent w3schools results.

This plugin will redirect any requests to google.com/search and google.co.uk/search pages so that the query includes the term -site:w3schools.com.

This means your results will not include any results from that site while still maintaining a full search result set. (Nothing is removed from your results, they never come in in the first place)

This plugin is aimed at web developers and web designers.

Works in most cases, it adds "-site:w3schools.com" to every search you do. It will show that in your search bar, which may drive you crazy if you're picky. One problem/bug I have found is that if you search for something with a "#" it will not work correctly. If you search for "C# generic method" your search will turn into just "C".
