Web Search Tips
1. If you only have a general notion of what you are looking for, use a subject directory, these are collections of web pages organized by people. Examples of good web directories are the Librarians’ Index to the Internet (http://lii.org) and the Open Directory Project (http://dmoz.org). Use a search engine such as Google or Yahoo for specific information.
2. For more relevant results, use at least two unique keywords. Place the most important first. Do not use words such “what”, “where”, “the” or “of”. Phrases should be placed within quotation marks, ex: “cleaning services” or “WH Cleaning”.
3. Use the “advance search” feature in the search engine to refine your search. To customize the results go the preference section. For example, select a 100 links per page instead of the default ten, and specify the language. Be sure to save your preferences.
4. Do not confine yourself to one search engine. Conservative estimates on the size of the web put it at about 50 billion pages, Google, the largest search engine, only indexes 8 billion pages. Thus, a great deal of high quality information is not indexed by the search engines, but it is part of the invisible or deep web. To find more about these resources visit: http://www.invisible- web.net/ or Resource Discovery Network (http://www.rdn.ac.uk/)
5. Evaluate your results, be skeptical! Check to see if the site has complete contact information and if it has been updated recently and regularly. Always confirm the information with other sources.
