Searching and finding what you are looking for is easy


Dearching and finding what you are looking for is easy if you are armed with the knowledge how to do it.

The best way to find information is through a virtual search engine.

Most search engines have advanced search options which can come in very handy if you are not skilled with operators when searching.

Search engines explore resources on the Internet and return results related to your query.

Search engines allow keyword searches and use crawlers to find sites or pages that match the query.

A simple query like "web hosting" on Google returns 15,100,000 results. Now how do users know which sites are useful to them, thus creating a kind of "Information Overload". How can users be sure of the quality of the information?

The thing about search engines is that they usually display all web pages that contain one or both of the words contained in the search query.

So the question arises: how do we find the information we are looking for?

There are various techniques you can use to make your search queries better which will then help you achieve more relevant results.

For example if you use the "+" operator and reorder your query to "web hosting" + Windows, it will only show sites that offer Windows hosting. You can also use the Boolean "AND" operator, depending on your convenience.

You can use the "-" and "web hosting" - Linux operator keys thus telling Google to make sure that it doesn't show Linux related hosts. This is the same as using the Boolean operator "NOT".

There are also keywords like ADJ, NEAR etc. which are used by some search engines. The NEAR operator looks for the keywords specified in the query within a certain distance from each other, ie ensures that the keywords "web" & "hosting" are on the same page and placed close to each other in the text.

The ADJ operator is a stricter filter and returns only pages that have contiguous keywords, ie it will only return pages where the keywords "web" and "hosting" are mentioned together.

Another technique to ensure you get better results is to use queries that make sense. Use the words you think will fit on the site you are looking for: "web hosting" is better than "I want web hosting".

Also note that search engines usually ignore certain words like "a '," for "," from "," in "," in ", etc.

Another important thing to remember is that most search engines have 'tips' pages that specifically contain information on how to perform better searches on search engines. It's always great to read these tips.

"The internet is an amazing place full of resources that can really help us"

However, finding information that is relevant to you is a challenge.
