Would something like this be useful?

Not really a site review, more of a - Is this useful and worth doing more with question

Using a combination of setting the Google UDM parameter and the w+CAIQICI trick to set locations, I've created a way of going direct to the different search options on Google.

The page below has a multi select option and also 8 individual search options

I know you can do the same on Google, although they make some of them tricky and hard to find for people who don't really know how to search.

Is something like this useful and worth spending anymore time on?

If not the multi search, any of the individual search options?

Google UDM Search by UKSBD

Select how you would like to search on Google with the added advantage of being able to set a location for where Google will think you are searching from.

Maybe it's useful, but tbh, I don't see it going anywhere, and to anyone that finds your search tool, I can assume they'd know how to filter google results.


I do think it has use, just not potential for reach tbh

Yeah, it's more of a play thing really.

The filtering itself is very simple, the tricking Google in to thinking where the person is searching from, not so simple.

Location isn't important for most of the search options, but is very useful for Places searches, web searches and default searches.

Particularly useful if you are running ad campaigns targeting locations which you aren't in.

I doubt I will be pushing it or doing much more with it, but personally I use it nearly every day.

Make it look nicer with tailwind css, then just leave it where it is and add some good SEO no reason to take it down, but yeah, I dont think its worth updating/improving unless for your own needs,

i'd recommend opensourcing it, if it isn't something that HAS TO BE close sourced.
