Improve your Search Skills - Find more, Spend Less Time
What is the secret behind a good search?
Simple, you should use the right keywords in your query; well, sometimes it isn't so easy, especially if you are new to the search topic or not familiar with the appropriate terms and expression.
But don't worry, with a little practice you can really boost your search skill and use it to find the information you need. And "in today's world" information is everything.

Web Search 101
Most of you probably know it by now, but we need to start from somewhere.
Ok, the main thing is to try telling the search engine exactly what you are looking for.
Let's say you need info about Golf (A car manufactured by Volkswagen). If you just write golf, you will receive results about golf course or golf tournaments. Instead, try writing golf car, or even better, golf Volkswagen. However, this is not enough, you should also tell the search engine what kind of information is needed (a review, spare parts, or maybe you want to buy a used car). If look for a specific model like year 2002 you should add that also.
So a query like: ,golf Volkswagen spare parts 2002, is a relatively good starting point.
Just one more tip for today, the order of the word is also important, so you can also try changing the order of the keywords and you might get better results.
