            replaceUnwanted = replaceUnwanted.Replace("See full business details", "")

    How about going through the same regular string manipulation?

    replaceUnwanted = replaceUnwanted.Replace(vbCrLf, "")
    

    If you were dealing with the <span>...<span>:

    replaceUnwanted = replaceUnwanted.ToLower().Replace("<br>", "")
    replaceUnwanted = replaceUnwanted.ToLower().Replace("<br />", "")
