12. Use the asterisk wildcard

13. Search for multiple words at once
Google search is flexible. By using this trick, you
can search for one word or phrase along with a
second word or phrase. This can help narrow
down your search to help you find exactly what
you’re looking for.

14. Search for multiple words at once
“Best ways to prepare for a job interview
” OR
“How to prepare for a job interview”
By searching that, Google will search both
phrases.
It can be done by word too, like this:
chocolate OR white chocolate

15. Keep it simple !!
Google knows how to search for a lot of thing
s.
This means you don’t need to be too specific.
If you need a pizza place nearby, use this:
Pizza places nearby
Google will grab your location and deliver a
variety of results about pizza places that are
near you.

16. Gradually add search terms.
As Google itself suggests, the best method is to
start with something simple then gradually get
more complicated.
First try: job interviews
Second try: prepare for job interviews
Third try: how to prepare for a job interview

17. Use words that websites would use
When people use Google to hunt the web, they
generally search for things using the same
language that they would use for speaking.
I have a flat tire Repair a flat tire
My head hurts Headache Relief

18. Google Images
