Tired of putting in a key word in your search engine (google, msn, overture, etc.) and getting over a million websites as a result? Try these simple steps to help narrow down your search.
"Put the exact phrase you are searching for in quotes"
What you are looking for -what you are not.
Example: Search {banana -apple} will find all the banana word but not include apple in the search.
Adding +the +plus +sign +will + require +the +search +to +include +it.
Example: Search {banana + apple} will find web pages with the word banana and apple within the text.
The wild card * after a word and you will get a variation of a word.
Example: Search {app*} this will find words like apple, applies, applied, etc.
You can also combine symbols in a search. Just tell the search engine what you are looking for.
