Searh Engine Hints

Search hints:

The main problem is search engines are all different. Best go to their help sections if you are having problems.

Be specific. The author of Rough Guide to the Internet, gives an example of what can happen if you do a search on his name, Angus Kennedy

If you search for angus kennedy in some search engines, you may get thousands of matches for JFK and angus cows. angus+kennedy is better and more accurate "angus kennedy" in quotes makes sure that both words have to be together in the web pages.

But not all engines are alike. While putting something in parenthesis will give you the desired results in one, on another, by NOT putting something in parenthesis, will result in exactly what you want. Best try both approaches on all!!
