TRY THESE TIPS FOR BETTER GOOGLE SEARCH RESULTS!
1. Use the Advanced Search option in Google. This allows you to get more specific search results because you can select filters such as dates, file types (ex: ppt), and domains (ex: .edu). You will find the Advanced Search option under "Settings" on the Google basic search screen.
2. Use the Search Tools option that appears below the search box on the results page. This allows you to narrow or refine your results.
3. When searching for business information, try combining your keywords with words such as "report" or "study" to learn about research conducted on your topic.
4. Find trade or professional associations by adding the word "association" to your business keyword search.
See the table below for other shortcuts you can use in a Google search to refine your results.
