What I’m going to teach you about is called ”Google Operators”. If you master most of these you will become the master of searching on Google. You see these operaters let's you search on specific things such as special filetypes, websites, or even definitions on words.
Define: This Google operator will search for definitions for a certain term or word. This could be useful if you find a strange word on the Internet i.e.(define hacking).
Site: This Google operator could be used to see the number of indeed files on your website. i.e. (site: www.yoursite.com)
Link: This Google operator allows you to find backlinks pointing to your site. But be aware of that the count isn’t updated frequently. i.e. (Link: www.yoursite.com)
Allinurl: Using this Google operator will limit the search to results that contain the keywords you have entered in the URL. i.e. (allinurl: ilovemusic)
Info: This Google operator will show you how much information Google has from a specific website. i.e. (info: www.yoursite.com)
Fileformat: This Google operator is useful when you want to search for information in a specific file format. i.e. (fileformat:.pdf market price) This will search for .pdf files which contains the terms ”market” and ”price”.
If you remember these ten Google operators you will get more accurate search results and therefore master Google’s search function.
P.S. Sorry for the green colour, the white (standard colour) was fucking my eyes up when writing this.
