Make your search easy on Google


Google is clearly the best general-purpose search engine on the Web. But most people don't use it to its best advantage.  With more than 3 billion pages in Google's index, it's really a struggle to find results that, you really need, but by using a special syntax, you can restrict your searches to certain elements or characteristics of Web pages. Google has a complete list of its Syntax Elements

Let's explore some of Google's lesser-known options.
Intitle:  It restricts your search results to just the titles of Web pages.
Way to use :- intitle:"Three Blind Mice"

Intext:  does the opposite of intitle, searching only the body text, ignoring titles, links, and so forth.
Way to use :-  intext:html.

Crack : Search crack for any application
Way to use :- crack: app name

Notes:-
1:- Google has a number of services that can help you accomplish tasks .  For example, the new calculator feature, lets you do both math and a variety of conversions from the search box.

2:-  Suppose you want to contact someone and don't have his phone number handy. Google can help you with that, too. Just enter a name, city, and state. If a phone number matches the listing, you'll see it at the top of the search results along with a map link to the address. If you'd rather restrict your results, use rphonebook: for residential listings or bphonebook: for business listings.

3:- Google even helps you with your shopping via its tool named :- Froggle
It indexes products from online stores, and Google Catalogs
