In today's world it is difficult to find alternatives to Google. Although Yahoo or Microsoft's Bing is the closest competitor, Google is now the most popular search engine. We do a lot of searching on Google all the time, but do we always find the desired answer? Here are some tips and tricks to help you find the information you want by searching Google.
Searching for information in specific websites
Looking for information on a specific website? Many times the built-in search facility provided between different websites is not very efficient. In that case type in Google what you want to find site: site address
Example: If you want to find all the information about iPhone on Banglatech24.com website, then type it in Google and search iphone site: banglatech24.com
To find a specific topic
You can use quotations if you want to find information on a specific topic. For example, if you search by typing Amazon Echo review, Google will show you 36 million results. And if you search by typing "Amazon Echo review", it will show you more summary 126,000 results.
Subject Specification
Suppose you want to find a jaguar car. In that case, if you just type jaguar and search, you will also see links / pictures related to jaguar animals. For this you have to mention the car issue. In that case search by typing jaguar -car.
Get cached (any site) cached by Google
Google stores caches for various web pages. Even if the server of those sites is closed / the page is deleted, the content of those pages can be visited from Google Cache for a certain period of time. Older versions of the site can also be viewed by visiting the Google Cache site online. To view Google Cache, type Cache before entering the site address and do a full Google search. If you are lucky you can also get Google Cache of that site / page.
Example: cache: https: //banglatech24.com/
In addition, if you search for something on Google, the search results will come, you can see the cached content of that address by clicking on the triangle shaped sign on the right side of the green link.
Files of a certain format
Specify the file format to find the file in a specific format. For example, if you want to find a PowerPoint file on a topic, specify the type of file.
Search image by image
To search for images using Google Images, you must first go to the Google Images page by clicking on the Images link at the top of the Google Home / Search page. Clicking on the drag-drop or camera-marked button there and selecting the image will upload the image and show you the image similar to the uploaded image. In addition, when any search result is displayed at the top of the page by clicking on the text of the image can be found. However, this is not always the case.
Find similar websites
You can use the word related to find similar websites.
E.g. related: bbc.com
Calculator / Currency / Definition
You can use Google's search bar directly as a calculator. For example, if you enter 505 * 50, the product of 505 and 50 can be found.
And if you search by typing $ 50 to bdt, you will see how much Bangladeshi money is available at that moment for 50 dollars.
To get the definition of something, you have to do a Google search by typing define before that subject. For example, define computer
