TIPS TO USE GOOGLE SEARCH EFFECTIVELY

If you want to use Google effectively, then you will need some Google search tips. In this article, you will get to know some Google search tips that will give you a great internet experience. So without wasting much more time, let’s get started.



Multi-Keyword Search

Sometimes we need to search for content with multi-keywords and it’s quite difficult to find the relevant content. You can solve this problem by adding a “|” or a word “or” between keywords and Google will show you content related to the keywords.

Search by Related Results

If you want to find synonyms of a word, I will suggest you add a ‘~’ before the keyword in order to get the most accurate or related results.

Search by Images

Despite keyword searches, you can even use Google to search for content using images. Well, this image search method doesn’t work fantastically, but still, you will be able to find whatever you want. You just need to search “Google Images” or click this link: https://www.google.com/imghp?hl=en

Use Keyword Suggestions

It’s quite difficult to remember search content, so in this case, we can simply add a * before and after a keyword that needs suggestion. When you enter * before and after a keyword Google will understand that you want to find something related to the keyword you entered and it will expand the search for you. Like if you enter the word “AI”, then Google will suggest searches related to ‘AI’.

Search for the Latest Posts

Google is unquestionably a very powerful search engine that provides you with a variety of great features, searching for the latest posts is one of them. If you want to find the latest posts related to anything, type your keywords, go to the Tools and select the “Last hour” option and Google will show you all the latest content related to your keywords.

Use Timeline Search

If you want to search for a document but can’t remember the exact time, you can use evidence to approximate the amount of time you need for searching. You just need to add a ‘…’ sign between two different timelines and you are good to go.

Exclude Irrelevant Results

Well, whenever we search a keyword on Google, we get a bunch of search results. Some of them are useful and some are entirely useless or irrelevant. You can easily remove irrelevant search results, you just need to use the command ‘_ keyword excluded’, and you are ready to explore the content with no irrelevant stuff.

Search by File Format

Sometimes we need to find a specific file format of a document shared on the internet despite searching for basic stuff or content. So to do this, we just have to add the command ‘filetype: format’ at the end of your keywords and press enter to search.

Calculator

Despite searching for various content, you can even use Google as a calculator. You just need to type the calculator in the Google search bar and press enter. Now Google will take you to a new page showing a straightforward calculator. You can calculate your numbers here very easily.

So these are all the Google search tips that I wanted to share with you. I hope you liked the information given in this article.
