Two very strange Google SERP’s

by Patrick Altoft on / 5 responses

Can anybody explain this query and this one?

Obviously the correct way of carrying out the query is without the + but it’s interesting to see Google returning results and especially interesting to see the results are totally different on google.co.uk

Funny google results

I see some results from Google Books when I look for the queries above but on Google UK.
Here it is:

I just tried it with my site: site:advicenetwork.com+inurl:advicenetwork.com

And I got a bunch of google book results.

site:digg.com +inurl:digg.com
