Search For The Best

How do you search information on the web? Do you just fire up Google or any search engine browser and type in a word or two?

Here are 6 basic simple tips how to most productively search for information at work:

• Choosing your words carefully –
A simple trick is to add search words to your search string, words that will more finely hone your results. Use words that are relevant to the information you’re seeking and that will eliminate irrelevant pages. Or, another way is to refine your results by enclosing multiword terms within quotation marks. Since Google does an excellent job of placing the most relevant sites up front, all you typically would need to do is peruse the first screen or first few screens of these results.

• Adding .com –
One way to eliminate most commercial websites from your search results would be to add .com to your search string. The result will yield to pages from .org’s, edu’s, and gov’s, a more reliable source of information.

• Adding the current year –
To look for a more updated and current data, you can add to your search string the current year.

• Using the minus sign –
Also, another magic trick is to use the minus sign and place it in front of words related to the subject matter you’re not interested in or in front of types of websites to further eliminate irrelevant pages.

• Finding hidden information –
If you are not using a site’s search tool, for you to be able to access the so-called hidden information in the databases of websites, is to include the term “searchable online database” with the quotation marks in your Google search string. But if you’re looking for information in a site that doesn’t have its own search tool, with Google, you can add the word “site” to your search string without the quotation mark and followed by the URL.

• Experimenting with the words on your search string –
Rearranging, editing, deleting and adding new words might give additional and different results.

Bottom line here is still to exercise caution in your searches. Much knowledge still resides elsewhere other than the web. Although, the Internet had changed the face of information, a lot still depends on your ability to look for it.
