Prelude:
I collected some common advanced keywords for Google searching. These tips are generally applicable to most search engines.
You can also “search” on this page to find what you need.
Exact Keywords
Use
"key words ..." (double quotes) to prevent keywords from being split up during the search.Exclude Keywords
Use
- to exclude keywords.For example:
python usage -w3sWildcard
The
* in the search bar works similarly to the wildcard in Linux.Search for Similar Words
Use the
~ symbol. For example, to search for words similar to "elderly," input ~elderly. This will return pages that include words like "senior," "older," "aged," and more, in addition to "elderly."Search Multiple Keywords
Use
| to separate search terms.You can also use
OR and AND keywords. Make sure to use parentheses () to organize the structure of your search.Search Within a Specific Website: site:
Use
site:url (keywords) before the search query.You can use parentheses
() around similar filters to better organize the search structure.Search Related Websites: related:
Using
related: helps you find websites related to a specific site.For example, searching for
"related:runoob.com" will return all websites related to runoob.com.Time Range: daterange: AFTER: BEFORE
Use
"daterange:" to search for content within a specific time range. For example, searching for "marathon daterange:2011-01-01..2022-01-01" will return results related to marathons between 2011 and 2022.Use
"AFTER:2020" to get content after the year 2020, and so on.Search for Keywords in Titles: intitle:
Use
"intitle:" to search for pages that have a certain keyword in the title tag. For example, searching for "intitle: Google" will return results with Google in the title.Specify Image Size: imagesize:
Use syntax like
imagesize:500x500 to find images of a suitable size.File Type: filetype:
Use
"filetype:" to search for specific types of files. For example, searching for "Python manual filetype:pdf" will return all PDFs related to the Python manual.Find Cached Versions of Web Pages
The
"cache:" operator allows you to find cached versions of web pages. Google generates cached versions so users can access pages even when the website is down.Who Linked to This Image? src:
The
src: search operator will return web pages that reference the image URL provided in the src attribute.- Author:Parker Chen
