Advanced Search Tips

You can increase the accuracy of your searches by adding operators to fine-tune the terms you enter into the search field.

Using the '+' Operator

Google, our search provider, will generally ignore common words such as "where" and "how," as well as certain single digits and letters. Because these terms are so common, they often slow down your search without improving your results.

If one of these common words or characters is necessary to find the results you want, you can include it by putting a "+" sign at the beginning of the word.

Example 1. 

+how +to find serial number

Another method that can be used to find exact text matches is to use a phrase search.

Using the ' - ' Operator

Sometimes what you're searching for has more than one meaning—"windows" can refer to the Microsoft operating system or application windows. You can exclude a word from your search by putting a minus sign ("-") immediately in front of the term you want to avoid.

Example 2. 

windows -Microsoft

Using the 'OR' Operator

Google supports the logical "OR" operator. To retrieve pages that include either word A or word B, enter the word "OR" in uppercase between terms.

Example 3. 

XML OR Extensible Markup Language

Phrase Searches

Search for exact phrases by enclosing them in quotation marks. Searches performed on exact phrases will include common words. Phrase searches are especially useful when searching for exact quotes or proper nouns.

Example 4. 

The phrase search "how to find your serial number" will find pages that include that exact phrase.
