In the Google search process, in addition to the logic and phrases, you can also use special syntax to narrow the search scope.
As a full-text search engine, Google can search for the title, body, and appendix of a webpage. However, sometimes we only want to search for a specific webpage or webpage location, which requires special syntax.
It is worth noting that some of the special syntaxes described below can be used in combination or nested mode, and some can only be used separately. The specific usage will be introduced in the next article.
I. intitle:
Intitle: used to search for webpages with keywords in the title. It has changed to allintitle: used to search for webpages with all keywords in the title. For example:
Intitle: "George Bush"
Allintitle: "Money Supply" Economics
It is worth noting that allintitle cannot be used together with other special syntaxes.
Ii. intext:
Intext: used to search for webpages with keywords in the body (note that links in the body are ignored ). Similarly, it has a variable usage of allintext: To search for webpages with all keywords in the body. For example:
Intext: "Yahoo.com"
Intext: HTML "Yahoo.com"
Similarly, allintext cannot be used together with other special syntaxes.
Iii. inanchor:
Inanchor: used to search for webpages with keywords in the anchor. It also has a change of allinanchor: the Web page used to search for the anchor that contains all the keywords in the anchor. For example:
Inanchor: "Tom Peters"
Inanchor: "Tom Peters" "Yahoo.com"
Similarly, allinanchor cannot be used together with other special syntaxes.
PS: For the definition of the anchor, if you don't know it, Google it.
4. Site:
Site: you can narrow the search scope to a specific website or a top-level domain name. For example:
Site: loc.gov
Site: thomas.loc.gov
Site: edu
Site: NC. Us
It is worth noting that site: only the homepage of a website or top-level domain name can be searched. That is to say, you cannot search all the content of a website. To search all the content of a website, you need to use the following special syntax.
5. inurl:
Inurl: used to search for webpages with keywords in links. Similarly, allinrul: A web page with multiple keywords in a link can be searched, and allinurl: cannot be used together with other syntaxes. For example:
Inurl: Help
Allinurl: Search Help
Google recommends that we use inrul: to replace site: Because inurl: allows you to search for subdirectories of a website. At the same time, site: ignores http: // while inurl: Does not.
6. Link:
Link: used to search for webpages that point to a specific website. For example:
Link: www.google.com
Note: 1. http: // Google automatically ignores http. 2. Link: The difference between link and inrul is that the link needs to completely point to the search URL, and the link only needs to contain keywords.
VII. cache:
If you are an online archaeological, you must look at this syntax.
Cache: used to search for snapshots of a Web page, even if it does not exist. For example:
Cache: www.yahoo.com
VIII. filetype:
Filetype: used to search for objects in a certain format. For example:
Homeschooling filetype: PDF
"Leading economical indicators" filetype: PPT
IX. Related:
Related: used to search for similar websites. For example:
Related: Google.com
You will get websites such as Yahoo and CNN.
10. Info:
Info: used to search for more information on a webpage. For example:
Info: www.oreilly.com
Info: www.nytimes.com/technology
11. phonebook:

12. define:
