The reason why looking for the wreckage of even a large aircraft like the 737-800 over the terrain it may have crashed in is like looking for a needle in a haystack is due to several reasons. Firstly the area is mostly covered by dense forest so after crashing it becomes very difficult to see anything over the foliage from the air. The fact that the plane seems to have crashed shortly after take off makes matters worse because it means that there was a fair amount of aviation fuel and therefore fire shortly after impact is a high likelihood making it even more difficult to find any remains or wreckage.
There is also the remote probability that the pilots in the last moments of the flight tried to control the aircraft to find some place to bring it down which would put the wreckage anywhere within a huge radius off the flight path and close to where the last signal was received.
The Kenyan government has asked the Americans for help using their sophisticated satellite technology in finding the aircraft. Again because the area is rough, mostly forest terrain, it is also difficult using this technology to see the plane. Satellites do not operate like metal detectors, one still has to scan vast tracts of land in their search and in this case it will be slower because of the factors mentioned which means they really have to zoom in and go over a very large area extremely slowly. It is still akin to looking for a small needle in a very large tract of long grass.
