Custom search engine to exclude parts spammers

When I search for electronic parts, or other parts, I often get a lot of search results that are worthless asshole spammers who put up millions of fake pages saying "We have ABCXYZ in stock, call us" whereas they have nothing in stock. Just a perl or php script to spam google.

So, I created a custom search engine called "Search without spammers". This is a Google custom search engine and there I defined a list of a couple of dozen of most prolific parts spammers, like netcomponents, to be EXCLUDED from search. The list is by far not complete, so, I would like to ask if perhaps anyone wants to try it and contribute.

The "custom search engine" is mainly for my own use, but, of course, you are welcome to use it too.

If you want, I can try to add you to the list of contributors so that you can expand the list.

Thoughts?

Looks good Igor. Is there a way to see which sites are excluded?

Could you do a similar one to filter out the ones that offer to *sell* data sheets that are available free elsewhere?

I believe he's done that by banning P*rtm*ner et alia.

Absolutely, give me domains, or, alternatively, give me your google userid so that I can add you to the list of "collaborators", you can add your own.

I will not change the list, but I do hope to add more spammers to the excluded list.
