In addition to what I have mentioned above, there are many Operators that you can add to Google search to modify your search in some way. I'll show you the most useful ones, don't use a space between the operator and the word (operator:word)
- site: To search for words in specified site. This operator is very helpful when you want to search something in a site that does not have a search option. Try "site:www.tutorialsroom.com Photoshop " and you will get all the pages that has the word Photoshop in the www.tutorialsroom.com site. Notice that typing site:www.tutorialsroom.com without any additional words will return all the indexed pages of the site (all the pages that Google know about).
- inurl: Google will restrict the results to the documents that have the specified word in the url, try "inurl:loans cars " and you will get all the documents that have loans in the url and the word car anywhere in the document.
- allinurl: the same like the above but Google will restrict the results to the documents that have all the words that come after the allinurl in their urls, try "allinurl:real state" and you will get all the documents that have both real and state in the url.
- intitle: Google will restrict the results to the document that have the given word in the title, try "intitle:pets cats" to get all the documents that have the word pets in the title and cats anywhere in the document.
- allintitle: The same like the above but Google will return the documents that have all the words in the title so "allintitle: pets cats" will return the documents that have both the words pets and cats in the title.
- filetype: To get a certain file type documents, try "filetype:pdf car loan" and you will get all the pdf files that have the words car loan somewhere in them and you can click View as HTML to make Google display the pdf file as html page if you don't have a pdf reader.
