What are some Internet search tips?

Tips and Tricks on Searching the Internet - Using Quotes in Searches

If your Internet search produces very general results, try enclosing your search term in quotations. The search engine will view any term in quotes as a phrase, and will look specifically for that phrase. The term "computer diagnostic scan," in quotes, will yield fewer, and more specific, results than typing in the phrase without quotes.
