Hi, when you do a google searching it shows a certain amount of results. But it will not continue to show these all results as you scroll page after page. You will just see the same ones over and over again after reading them.
How can I continue to scroll and see all these results? Is there a certain comand you can enter that will allow you to do this?Use the advance search or check goggle's search settings.I looked at these and cannot figure it out. Any more hints please?Open a search page...upper rite hand corner there's a little gear icon...that's preferences...
Scroll down to how many pages are displayed....100 is the limit...which i think will keep you busy enough...
It does not go higher than that so the SHORT answer to your question is No...That changes "results per page" not the total number that you can view as you go from page to page. They usually list a very high number of results gotten - like 2,500.000 but if you keep viewing each page (a standard page is about 20) after about 55 pages thats it. If you just hit the same searchyou will just see the exact ones you already saw. So you get to see about 550 out of the very high number they claim to have found.I tried changing to not instant and then to 100 per page and it did NOTHING. I still got about 20 perpage and about 55 pages.  Thanks for the help.I don't think you get how google works...did you choose "save preferences" after changing the settings ? ?Personally, I'll seldom read more than two pages and if I don't see what I am looking for I'll reword the search and try again.  Most searches that come up dry are because the original query wasn't worded quite right.On Google search for
Basic search help
And find their search help page.He doesn't need it...i already told him the same things he will see there.When I do a search it shows a massive amount of results anyware from 65,000 to 2 million. So I start to look these over but after doing a complete viewing of about 55 pages it asks you "do you want omitted results shown" and if you click on this you will get another 55 pages to view.
Now that is only 110 times 20 on a page what 2200. There is alot more to see. Thanks for the help.I have clicked on the icon on the upper right. You can only increase number per page if you DONT use Google instant. So I turn that off and check for 100 per page and save preferences.

The amount per page is what it always is about 20. Nothing changes. Help!What can be further said? The behavior is by design.

Suppose the item thou want is the last in a long list of 50,000 items. What you you do to get to it.? If there are 10 items per screen view, there would be 5000 screen views. So you would hit the page down key 5000times. Is that what you would want? So would it help to have 20 items per screen view? !00 items? How fine is the  resolution on your display? Do you have micro vision?
Now if you have micro vision, you MUST be superman. Superman has no problem going through 50,000 items in a Google search. He can hit the page down key so fast it melts. Quote from: ricky2me on June 18, 2011, 01:22:22 PM
