Lets say I run a search for Alabama, it often happens that one of the questions is "what's the average salary in alabama?" then it jumps to something like "what's the average salary in new york?" and from there to something like "is donald trump from new york?" and i end up with some questions that are totally far off the topic I had searched initially.
I once ran a search for how to find a job in houston and after a few questions on work in houston, from there it jumped to "is houston sinking?" and from there to "is indonesia sinking?" and then " is thailand sinking?" and I ended up with a lot of Thailand related questions when I was searching into houston.
Any tips to avoid that?
Thanks for your input! I believe the best way to solve this will be to add a filter system in where you can set specific keywords for the software to look for as it goes through questions, so it will only click relevant questions (which will pull up more relevant questions in the list) - the downside is that if it doesn't find a match to the specific filter keywords entered when Google suggests new questions it will run out of content, but that may be best if the content starts getting too off topic - but clicking only relevant questions to scrape should help generate more relevant questions and keep things more on track. Will work on adding this as soon as I've pushed the current duplicate question update and added a few other tweaks - shouldn't be long. I appreciate your input, please keep it coming as you continue to use the software!
