I am doing a search for a phrase and when I do that search it does not come up with everything that I know it should. When I do this seach, I type the phrase in the search (with quotation marks) then hit search. I then repeat with the omitted results. Problem is, it comes up with about 20 results and I know for a fact that there are more than that. I'm wondering if anyone knows how I can do a deeper search for this phrase and hopefully be able to come up with more results? I'm also open to any search engine tips you may have. Thanks, JLock
I would try using Google's advanced search to see if it will help. http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en You can also read about some of their search tips. http://www.google.com/intl/en/help/refinesearch.html
I tried to work the Advance search, but it didn't help... It's like it just isn't finding the phrase except for those few times. I think the main issue is that the search is not taking enough time to dig deep so it ends up skipping a bunch of it. In fact it is finding older posts of this phrase than it is the newer ones. I guess if there is not a way to get a deeper search, then my question would be why does the search not find the phrase everywhere... and why does it find the same ones everytime? Thanks, JLock and thank you
You can also try a different search engine. Yahoo or live search will most likely give you some different results.
lol Indo. I have. I read something about these being these last snap shots from the last time google went "crawling" by... not sure exactlly what that means, but I'm thinking it to mean that it scanned these into it;s database or something. Anyone got a better explination of it? Thanks y'all, Jlock
if the phrase is that personal it may not have made it on to google just yet.lol.i dont mean to sound flip but you are going to have to be a little more specific if you want results.if the topic is phrasiology,and you cant get what you are looking for off the net,then there is something called a library.
