To enter a query into
Google, just type in a few descriptive words and hit the 'enter' key (or click
on the Google Search button) for a list of relevant web pages. Since Google
only returns web pages that contain all the words in your query,
refining or narrowing your search is as simple as adding more words to the
search terms you have already entered. Your new query will return a smaller
subset of the pages Google found for your original "too-broad" query.
Choosing Keywords for Google Site Search
For
best results, it's important to choose your keywords wisely. Keep these tips
in mind:
Try the obvious
first. If you're looking for information on Picasso, enter "Picasso" rather
than "painters".
Use words likely
to appear on a site with the information you want. "Luxury hotel London"
gets better results than "really nice places to spend the night in
London".
Make keywords as
specific as possible. "Antique lead soldiers" gets more relevant results
than "old metal toys".
