Main Google search operators, what do you think?
Monday, September 21st, 2009Google as the world’s popular search engine has many featured search options. For example, you may find weather forecast (using phrase weather: before mentioning your location) or calculate the mathematical phrase by writing it in Google search field.
But for sites owners the interest is in featured search, to get more information about the site position, site backlinks or when and what version of site Google has cached. So lets go)
First option is info:yoursite.com – it offers you a general information on the website (e.g. info:cogniance.com). It will present information about entered web page. On the opened page you also see several other link:
- cache:yoursite.com (e.g. cache:cogniance.com) displays cached web page, instead of the current page version. On the cached version of a page, Google will highlight terms in your query that appear after the cache: search operator (e.g. cache:cogniance.com software)
- related:yoursite.com (e.g. related:cogniance.com) lists web pages that are similar to the web page you entered.
- link:yoursite.com (e.g. link:cogniance.com) shows pages that are linked to that questioned site. Also you will find backlinks on your site. To exclude a certain website from search query type -site:site.com (e.g. link:cogniance.com -site:cogniance.com)
- site:yoursite.com (e.g. site:cogniance.com) restricts your search results to the site or domain you specify.The same option as to the previous one – you can include or remove the site from where the link would go to your site (e.g. - site:google.com).
allintext:, allintitle:, allinurl: show the search results with specified phrase in text/title/URL/subject. For example,
Tag define, another operator, is also very useful for definitions search; you can specify any word or phrase and the definition for it will be found in Google. For example, define:software
The main and mostly used search operators are mentioned above. What other do you know which you think would be useful for site owners?
