Click on the example Google trick, and You will be redirected to Google.

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 computer)

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

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

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

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

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”)

intitle: “text we are looking for” , for example, Intitle: “IPL India”

Then Google search results are going to show us all the Websites which contain IPL India as a title or part of it.

Otherwise, if we are looking for some information described in an article, we would search the information as a part of the text from the website. So we have to indicate in the search bar on Google:

intext: “text we are looking for” ( example: intext: “rhythmic gymnastics”)

In this case Google will show us the results of websites which contain descriptions about rhythmic gymnastic.

Other trick is when we are looking for links which give us directly the information desired.

Inanchor:”text we are looking for” (example: Inanchor: “catalog Olympics download”)

Google results will show us all the links where we can download the catalog of the Olympics.

Please, you have to be careful if you would like to download any information or programs and you don't know where the link comes from. Make sure you know the main website where the link belongs.

inurl: “Text we are looking for”  (example: Inurl: “Olympics2012″)

Google will show us if it is any website, which its URL is or contain olympics2012, like for example: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/olympic_games/london_2012/default.stm
