GoogleSecrets-TipsTricks


  1. define:

    -- This google operator will find definitions for a certain term or word over the Internet. Very useful when you come across a strange word when writing a post. I use this as a google dictionary. example : (define: proxy servers)


  2. info:

    --The google info operator will list the sets of information that Google has from a specific website (i.e. info:http://www.completehack)


  3. site:

    --This google operator can be used to see the number of indexed pages on your site (i.e.site:www.completehack). Alternative it can also be used to search for information inside a specific site or class of sites.


  4. link:

    --This google link operator allows you to find backlinks pointing to your site. Unfortunately the count is not updated frequently and not all backlinks are shown


  5. allinurl:

    --Using this Google operator will limit the search to results that contain the desired keywords on the URL structure. (i.e. allinurl:dailyhealttips)


  6. fileformat:

    --Useful Google operator for finding specific file formats. Sometimes you know that the information you are looking for is likely to be contained in a PDF document or on a PowerPoint presentation, for instance. (i.e. “fileformat:.pdf market research” will search for PDF documents that contain the terms “market” and “research”).
