Search Engines


It's time to search AND actually find what you are looking for !
Having trouble finding what you want in your searches? Keep in mind that the quality of your results
depends a lot on the words that you use. Here are some tips to make every search more effective:
-
Make sure
that you spell search words correctly. Remember to leave a space between each word in your
query.
-
Use words
that you would expect to find in the websites that you're looking for.
-
Use
the OR
and NOT keywords to combine or exclude
words. For example, if you use tree NOT evergreen, you will get results for
trees but not for evergreen trees. This feature is currently available only in select countries and
regions.
-
Vary your
search terms. A different word or phrase will return different search results. Use fewer descriptive
words, or try words that have a different but similar meaning. For example,
try alloy
instead of metal or steel.
-
Search for
exact phrases by placing the search words within quotation marks. For
example "short evergreen
tree".
-
Click a
category to see only the results associated with that category. A list of categories may appear at the
top of the search results.
-
Use
Instant Answers keywords to focus your search. For example, to learn the definition of a word, type
define , followed
by the word you want to define. For more information, see Instant
Answers. This feature is currently available only in select
countries and regions.
Notes
-
Basic searches aren't case sensitive.
-
Common words, such as a, and, and the are ignored unless you use quotation
marks around them. For example, "a" car" and" car, or "the" car.
-
If your search includes a date, type the name of the month instead of the calendar number.
-
You don't have to type the word AND between your search words. By default, all
searches are AND searches.
-
You can type up to 150 characters, including spaces, in the search box.
