To get more specific search results, try using the following tips:
Shop
ICEour free product safe secure privacy security Search Template Reference "our pledge to you" +"template language" wh*
"wh* are"
415-*-* Make sure your search terms are spelled correctly.
Using multiple words will return more refined results than a single word.
For example, typing our free product will return more relevant
results than typing just product. (Keep in mind that relevant
results are returned even if they don't contain all query terms.)
Example: Rolemaster Moments April 2002
The more similar words you use in a search, the more relevant your results will be.
Example: roleplaying game role playing
Capitalize proper nouns, and remember that lower-case words will
match any case. For example, typing search will return
all documents containing the words search, Search,
and SEARCH. Typing Search, however,
will instruct the search engine to look only for the capitalized
word.
Example: Silent Death: The Next Millennium
Use quotation marks to find words which must appear adjacent
to each other, for example, "our pledge to you."
Otherwise, the search results will include the word our,
pledge, to, and the word you,
but not necessarily in that order. The words may appear anywhere,
and in any order, within the document.
Note: if you are using the Advanced Search Form with radio buttons for "any," "all," and "phrase," then quotes can only be used when the "any" radio button is selected. Quotes are ignored if the "all" or "phrase" radio buttons are selected.
Example: "Run Out the Guns!"
Use a plus sign when your search term or phrase must appear in the search results. Use a minus sign to indicate undesirable term(s). The plus sign tells the search engine that a certain word or phrase is required in the search results, and a minus sign indicates that a word or phrase must be absent in the search results.
Note: A phrase must be contained within quotation marks. Leave no spaces between the plus or minus sign and the term.
Example: +"Shadow World"
Wildcard searches can expand the number of matches for a particular
request. The * character is used as the wildcard
character.
For instance, searching for wh* will find the words what,
why, when, whether, and any other word
that starts with wh.
Searching for *her* will find the words here,
whether, together, gathering,
and any other word that contains her anywhere in
the word.
Wildcards may be combined with the standard plus (+) and minus (-) modifiers,
quotes for phrases, as well as the field search specifiers.
+wh* -se*ch will find all pages which have a word that starts
with wh and which does not contain a word that starts with se
and ends with ch.
"wh* are" will find the phrases where are,
what are, why are, etc.
Example: Examples:
wh*
"wh* are"
