Internet searching

 There are internet searching tips that you should know to make a good search or else you will come up with a bunch of website with useless information. To make a good internet search, do not use common words like "a" or "the" in your search because Google or many others "search engine" would search every single pages that has those common words. The second tip is use plus sign in your search to include other things that you want to search with and use minus sign to NOT include. Use quotes to keep words together and remember to be SPECIFIC IN YOUR SEARCH.
