Advanced Google Search

Have you ever searched page after page of Google search to find information? With Google’s Advanced Search, you can narrow that long quest for information to just a few short pages to find what you need quicker and easier.

In order to save time and frustration, many Google users make use of the Advanced Search feature. There are many ways to narrow your search. For example, you can have results show web pages that have all of the containing words, exact words or phrases. You can also ask Google to not give results containing certain words in the search.

Another useful tool is the reading level option where you can choose if you want basic or advanced results.

Google explains, “For instance, a junior high school teacher looking for content for her students or a second-language learner might want web pages written at a basic reading level. A scientist searching for the latest findings from the experts may want to limit results to those at advanced reading levels.”

A very useful tool is the able to narrow search by the date it was published. For example, you can search pages that were created within the past day, week, month, and even year.

According to PCMag.com, “most people don’t use it to its best advantage or in an advanced way. “Do you just plug in a keyword or two and hope for the best?” It’s hard to say why the many users of google don’t take advantage of the advanced search feature. Maybe the small link on the side is too small for people to care or see so they forget about it. It’s also possible that people simply aren’t sure what they’re looking for.
