I found a great post on the Money Making Student blog, which lists some nice techniques for effective Google searching. With the amount of information that is published on the Internet, sometimes it’s hard to find the right information quickly. Luckily, help is available. I was going to list some techniques that may help you find information quickly, but someone else has already done a good job. The money making student explains top 5 search techniques, which include:

1. Include - use of ‘+’ symbol
2. Exclude - use of ‘-’ symbol
3. Synonyms - use of ‘~’ symbol
4. Alternative - use of ‘OR’
5. Explicit Phrase - use of ” ” symbols

There are also links to other sites that offer search help and techniques. For more Information, please visit this site.
