It seems like hardly a day passes without someone searching for something on Google. Google is a huge force in the search engine market. It is the default search engine for Android devices and web browsers such as Chrome. Google is now the most popular online search engine to find anything, from random facts and music videos to services and products.

Google has been easy to use since its inception. Google’s home page only has one field for searching and one button to perform a search. This simplicity is beautiful, but many people don’t realize that Google search is more complicated than just typing in a query or search phrase. We are not referring to Google’s search algorithm. Instead, we will be discussing how users can use the search functions of Google.

Over the years, Google’s algorithm has been updated to provide the most relevant and useful search results for specific search queries. The results almost always match the query that users enter even if they do a simple search. Google also offers ways for users to further refine their search, making the results more relevant to their original query.

These tips and sophisticated Google search techniques can help you reduce the number of search results.

1. Search Within A Website

While some websites may have an internal search function, others do not. You can still search within a website through Google by entering site:website.com followed by your search query.

site:phplift.net

Search for pages that contain all your terms. Enter allinurl and then add your search query with no spaces.
