Basic Tips for Google Search

1. Use the Right Keyword to Get the Right Result

Using the right keywords while searching for something on Google is important. If you don’t, you might not get the results you’re looking for.

For example, if you’re looking for a new car, some good keywords might be ‘cars‘, ‘new cars‘, or ‘car dealers‘. Also, avoid using question words, prepositions, articles, auxiliary verbs, punctuation, etc., in your keywords. For example, using ‘windows keyboard shortcuts pdf‘ is better than ‘download the pdf file of keyboard shortcuts for windows‘.

You can also try using Google’s Suggested Searches to get ideas for other keywords. If you still don’t find what you want, try rephrasing your query or using different keywords.

2.  Search for an Exact Phrase or Word

To search for an exact phrase or word on Google, enclose it in quotation marks. By surrounding your search query with quotation marks, you can tell Google to return results that match your exact phrase. This can be helpful when looking for a specific song lyric or finding information on a particular person or place.

For example, if you want to search all the websites where a particular phrase “history of the UK government”, appears, enclose your search keywords within double quotes. When you do so, Google will give results that contain that phrase or keyword.

3. Search for a Specific Letter or Number

You can also search for a specific letter or number across the web. All you need to do is to put a period (.) before your search query. For example, if you want to find all the available information about the letter ‘A‘, and the words that start with ‘A‘, you would search for ‘.A.’ You can also use this technique to find a specific number.

4. Use Google’s Cached Pages Feature

What if a website you are trying to visit loads slowly or is offline? You can use Google’s cached pages feature to see old versions of webpages. Google takes snapshots of web pages and stores them in its cache. You can use this feature to view web pages that are not available for some reason.

On the Google search results page, click on the 3-dot icon () next to the website’s URL. Click on the Cache option in the pop-up that appears. You can also view the cached version of a website by typing ‘cache:website name‘. Thus you can browse this website by entering ‘cache:technastic.com‘ in the search box.

Google web page cache option

You can also use Wayback Machine to view the permanently archived versions of web pages.

5. Search by Voice

I don’t remember using a voice command to search on Google. However, if you like, you can use your voice to search for something on Google. Click the microphone icon in the search box and answer your query. The feature is available in Chrome for desktop and mobile. You can also search by voice using the Googe app on your Android device. Do not forget to check out our list of 700+ Google Assistant voice commands to learn more.

6. Search by Image

Google’s Search by Image is a Reverse Image Search engine. It is a handy tool that allows you to search the web using an image instead of a text query. All you need to do is upload an image or enter the URL of an image, and Google will show you all the websites where that image appears. You can also use Search by Image to find similar images or discover new and related images. The feature is available on desktop and mobile versions of Google Search.

To search for similar or related images, go to the Google home page and click on Images.google images

The Google Image Search page will open. Click on the Camera icon located in the search bar. Now you can upload your image or paste its URL to make a reverse image search. Once you click Search, Google will show you all the images matching your criteria. google reverse image search page

It’s easier to use Search by Image or Google Lens on smartphones because you only need to tap the camera icon next to the microphone icon to search for a related image.

7. Use Google’s USA Version

By default, Google’s results are customized according to the country you search from. If you want to use the USA or NCR (no country redirect) version of Google, you can access it anywhere. Earlier, it was possible to access Google.com instead of your local version (google.co.in, for example) by going to google.com/ncr. But now it doesn’t work anymore. The good news is you can still use the USA version of Google via the following link:

https://www.google.com/webhp?pws=0&gl=us&gws_rd=cr

A Chrome extension called Google & Youtube NCR lets you do the same.

8. Enable Safe Search

Google’s Safe Search feature can help you keep your kids safe online. When enabled, it will filter out explicit results from your search results. That means no more accidentally stumbling across nudity or other offensive content. You can also set it to ‘strict‘ mode, which will be even more restrictive. You can add certain keywords that you always want to be filtered out. Once enabled, Safe Search will work across all of Google’s services, including Image Search, YouTube, and Maps.

To turn on Safe Search, click on the Gear⚙️icon in the top right-hand corner of the screen, select Advanced Search, and click on the toggle next to Safe Search.

9. Use Google’s Advanced Search Options

Advanced Search options are meant for those who want more control over their search results. Advanced Search lets you narrow your search by language, region, file type, date, website, or region.

Suppose you enter the query ‘United States history‘ into the regular Google search bar. Your results would likely include a mix of websites, articles, books, etc., many of which might not be relevant to your needs. You can then go to the Advanced Search page for that search keyword and specify that you’re looking for websites, published within the last year (under the Last update tab), and containing the keyword ‘Founding Fathers‘ (under the Find pages with… section), and so on. Finally, click the Advanced Search button, and our results will be more targeted and relevant.

So, next time you start a Google search, check out the advanced options by clicking the Gear⚙️icon in the top right-hand corner of the search result page and selecting Advanced Search.Google search settings

Now, you’ll have the options to help you fine-tune your search results.

10. Google Advanced Image Search

You can also use the Advanced Image Search options while searching for images to specify the image file type (JPEGs, GIFs, PNGs, etc.), image size, aspect ratio, colors in the image, and specific website where they should be located.

To access the Advanced Image Search options, search for an image, click the Gear icon in the top-right corner of the search results page, and select Advanced Search. You’ll then be able to define the parameters.

You can also use [keyword] image type as a syntax to search for images in a specific format. For example, if you want to download Spiderman’s transparent image, use ‘spiderman png transparent‘.

11. Narrow Down Image Results by Size, Color, Time, and Type

While searching for images on Google, you can filter your results by image size, color, image type and dominant color, usage rights, etc. This allows you to find the perfect image for your needs more easily. To narrow down and customize your image results on Google, type your query and press Enter. Then click Images > Tools and add the filters.

12. Filter Video Results by Duration, Time, Quality, and Source

Google Search offers a variety of options for filtering video results by duration, time, quality, and source.

To filter video results in Google Search, enter your query and select Videos. Then, click on the Tools option just below the search bar. This will bring up a new set of options for filtering your results. You can now filter videos by duration, time, quality, or source.

You can choose how many results you want to see per page, and you can also select the SafeSearch filter which will remove any graphic or explicit results from your search. You can also make Google show you personalized results based on the info in your Google account.

14. Use Google’s Search History to Track  your Searches

Google’s search history feature lets you view all your past searches chronologically. You can also use the search bar at the top of the page to find specific searches. If you want to delete a particular search from your history, click the ‘‘ icon. The search history feature can be a helpful way to keep track of what you or anyone else using your account searched for in the past. It can also help you troubleshoot if you’re having difficulty finding something on Google.

Use Google Search Operators

Search operators are special characters and terms you can add to your search queries to filter your results on Google and get more specific results. These operators can narrow your search results to match your query. Let’s check out the following Google search operators with examples:

42. Exclude Words from your Search

If you want to search for a term but exclude certain words or things in the results, you can use the minus sign (-).

-[keyword to exclude] [keyword to include]

[keyword to include] -[keyword to exclude]

For example, if you’re searching for information on smartphones but want to exclude Samsung smartphones from the search results, you would search for ‘smartphones -samsung‘. You can also use this search operator to exclude a specific website from search results. If you want to remove Amazon.com from the results, use ‘samsung galaxy s24 – amazon‘.

43. Include Additional Terms in your Search

With this Google search trick, you can include additional terms in your search. If you want to ensure that your results include a certain word or phrase, you can use the plus sign (+). For example, if you’re searching for information on cats and want the results to include the word ‘kittens‘ too, you would search for ‘cats +kittens‘.

44. Use ‘OR’ between your Search Terms

The ‘OR‘ search operator allows you to search for multiple keywords. It is useful when you don’t know which keyword will yield the best results. You need to separate your keywords with OR (capitalized). For example, if you wanted to find information on cats or dogs, you would search for ‘cats OR dogs‘. If you don’t use OR in capital letters, Google will take it as a part of your keyword.

45. Combine Search Terms with AND

‘AND’ is a Boolean operator that combines two or more search terms. For example, if you were searching for information on cats and dogs, you would use ‘cats AND dogs‘ as the search query. This would return results that contain both ‘cats‘ and ‘dogs‘.

46. Use * as a Wildcard to Fill in Missing Info

When you use the asterisk (*) on a Google search, it acts as a wildcard and will return results for any word that matches the part of the word that comes before or after the asterisk. Google uses an asterisk (*) as the wildcard character and for proximity searches.

For example, if you search for ‘test*‘ you’ll get results for ‘testing‘, ‘tests‘, and ‘tester‘, etc. Similarly, if you don’t remember the first, middle, or last name of a famous person, the full name of a movie, or part of some title, saying, or lyric, etc., you can use an asterisk (*) as a placeholder for the missing letters or words. Google will retrieve the missing

Try the following examples:

  • steve*
  • everybody knows that the dice*
  • humpty dumpty * a wall

47. Use ‘..’ to Search within Numeric Ranges

If you’re looking for a specific number within a range of numbers, the best way to search is by using the ‘..‘ (2 periods) operator. For example, to find all numbers between 10 and 20, you would use the following query: 10..20. This would return all results within that range.

Try the following examples:

  • 10..20
  • star wars 1977..2015
  • wwdc video 2015..2023
  • samsung phones 2021..2023

48. Use ‘@’ to Search Social Media

You can easily search for someone on social media using ‘@‘ before a word. For example, you can use ‘@technastic‘ to find our website’s social media pages.

49. Get the Definition of a Word

Using the “define:” search operator, you can find the definition of a word on Google. For example, if you enter “define:epistemology” into Google, the first result will be the definition of the term.

50. Find the Origin and History of Words

If you want to find the origin and history of a word, you can use ‘etymology:‘ as a search operator followed by the word. For example, to check the origin of the word ‘religion’, you can search for ‘etymology:religion‘.

51. Limit Search Results to a Specific Website

You can also use search operators to find results from a specific website. For example, if you want Google to display web pages from Technastic.com, you can use ‘site:technastic.com‘. Similarly, to find all instances of a certain topic (Google, for example) on this website, you can use the ‘site:technastic.com google‘. This operator helps you find websites using a specific TLD (top-level domain). For example, if you want to search for veg curry recipes from websites in India, you can use ‘veg curry recipes site:.in‘.

52. Search for Keywords within a URL

Two search operators let you search for terms in a URL. For example. if you want to find all the URLs containing ‘Google’, you can use ‘inurl:google‘. Similarly, to search for all Google URLs that contain ‘Android’, you should enter ‘allinurl:google android‘ in the search bar.

Other examples:

  • allinurl:technastic
  • allinurl:technastic.com android

53. Search for Specific Words in the Title

To find web pages that have specific word/words mentioned in their titles, you can use the ‘intitle:‘ search operator. For example, if you want Google to list all pages that contain “Windows 11” in their title, you would enter ‘intitle:windows 11‘ in the search box. Similarly, you can use ‘allintitle:‘ as in ‘allintitle:google android‘ to file all web page titles containing ‘Google’ and ‘Android’.

54. Find Specific Words on Web Pages

The ‘intext:‘ and ‘allintext:‘ search operators can be used to find all the instances of a particular word or phrase on a web page. This can be useful for locating specific information on a page or finding all instances of a particular word or phrase on a site.

Examples:

  • intext:google
  • allintext:google android

55. Search for Pages Related to a Specific Website or Topic

The ‘related:‘ search operator can be used to find web pages similar to a specific website or deal with similar topics. Take a look at the following example:

  • related:amazon.com

56. Narrow your Results by File Type

While searching for files, you can narrow down the results using operators like ‘filetype:‘ and ‘ext:‘. Try the following examples:

  • diet plan filetype:ppt
  • adb shell commands ext:pdf

57. Find Results from a Certain Source

The ‘source:‘ search operator tells Google to show results from only a specific website or domain. For example, if you wanted to find information about Google from The Verge, you would use the following search query: ‘google source:theverge.com’.

58. Convert One Unit to Another Using ‘in’

While Google Search has a built-in unit converter, there is also a simple search operator to convert one unit into another quickly.

  • 560cm in inch
  • $500 in gbp
  • hello in spanish

59. Find Information about a Movie

Google search also lets you find detailed information about movies. Just use “movie:” followed by the its name to find its showtimes, cast, IMDB rating, user reviews, and OTT platforms where it can be watched. Example: movie:shawshank redemption
