If you enter "minutes ago" site:answers.yahoo.com to Google regular search box, you will get this message:
Results 1 - 10 of about 15,800,000 from answers.yahoo.com for "minutes ago".
This is the hyperlink:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&newwindow=1&safe=off&q=%22minutes+ago%22+site%3Aanswers.yahoo.com&btnG=Search
While you type site:answers.yahoo.com into Google regular search box, you will get this message:
Results 1 - 10 of about 9,120,000 from answers.yahoo.com.
This is the hyperlink:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&newwindow=1&safe=off&q=+site%3Aanswers.yahoo.com&btnG=Search
Since the first search term is more restrictive than the second, how can it generate many more results? That is 15,800,000 vs. 9,120,000.
