Google Search Tips And Tricks How To Search Like A Pro
Google Search Tips And Tricks How To Search Like A Pro
The internet is a vast sea of information,
therefore to get the most out of Google search,
you must instruct the search engine to bring
exactly what you want. Since Google is the
largest search engine in the world, i'll share with
you some tricks on how to search like a pro on
Google.
1. Use of Quotation Marks and Key
Phrases
When looking for something on Google,
envelope the key word with quotation marks to
instruct the search engine to bring all about
what you searching for. For example if you type
in"Reebok", search engine would bring all about
Reebok and nothing else.
2. Time Range Search
If you want to know about the NFL between
2011 to 2014 for example your search would
look like this NFL 2011.2014. This would
instruct the search engine to bring up all about
the NFL between 2011 and 2014.
3. Document Type Search
If you are looking for a particular file type say a
PDF file for example you can instruct Google to
look for PDF files on Technology by typing in
"Filetype: PDF Technology". For word file
replace PDF with docx, for PowerPoint files put
in ppt, for excel type in xls.
4. Inclusive Search
If you want search engine to bring up two terms
in the search, like Apple and Mac for example,
just type Apple OR Mac.
5. Searching for Word Definition
You don't need to type a word on Google and
start looking for dictionary definition on
dictionary sites. To get a definition on Google
just type "define: word" and the definition
would pop up on top page.
6. Make Calculations
You could do your maths calculation if you know
how to use your symbols properly. You could
make calculation direct from Google by using +
- ( ) * to do your basic maths.
7. Unit & Currency Conversion Search
When search for a unit conversion, type in the
command telling the search engine what to
convert and to what. for example "1 dollar in
Naira".
8. Using Wildcards
When you have partial information about
something and want to get full details about the
matter, use wildcards such as asterisk (*) to fill
the missing fields. For example if you want to
know properties Gogle bought and how much,
your search would look like this "Google
acquired * for *".
Enjoy!
