Google Search Techniques

Google is the search engine most of the people in the world use. Today I am going to share some techniques with all of you people. With these techniques you would be able to search on google more perfectly and quickly. These are really very easy techniques. Even a child can easily perform these techniques. Ok let's start.

1. If you want to search not only for your search term but also for it's synonyms, place the tidle sign (~ ) immediately in front of your search term.

Suppose your search term is house and you want to search for it's synonyms at same time i.e.  Home , Residence etc. just place tidle sign after house.

2. Google ignores common words and characters such as
Where , The , How , Digits , Letters that slow down your search without improving the results. To search common result is essential to get the results you want. If you want common words to be searched in google then just put a " + " sign in front of it.

Peanut Butter +and Jelly

3. Surround it by quotes, to obtain only results that contains that pharase.
i.e. "There's no smoke without fire"

4. Use a star for each word of the expected answer
i.e. "There's no * without fire"

5. To search for web pages that have similar content to a given site, Type "Related:" followed by the website adress into the google search box.

8. Google main search invisibly combines search term with the Boolean construct "and". When you enter Smoke Fire Google will search for smoke and fire. To make google search for smoke or fire, Just type smoke or fire. Instead of OR you can also use the | Symbol. i.e. Smoke | Fire .

9. To use Google's built in calculator function , Simply enter the calculation you'd like done into the search box.
i.e. ((3*25) +65) / 2 = Then Google will automatically answer it. The answer of this question is 70 when calculated on google. You just use your own calculator . If your calculator is correct then it will also give 70 as answer.
