How To optimally use Google
Search a piece of sentence
Put your words in quotation marks and you will only receive results with the entire piece of sentence in the webpage.

Search in only one website
In de searchbox, type your keywords and site:www.nomdusite.com (without spaces between 'site', ':' and the URL). Ex: You want to know everything about KudoZ on ProZ. Type in the searchbox: kudoz site:www.proz.com

Find a word's definition
Type define: followed by the word (only available in English).

Refine your search by elimination
If you want to know everything on George Bush (father), type George Bush –W. When you type the less mark before a word (here the W), all pages containing this word will be eliminated.
