ESSAY

	50.	ANS:	
When you use a search engine, the more specific you make your keywords, the more likely you will find what you want. You can make the keywords more specific by using phrases, math symbols, Boolean operators, and wildcards. If your search engine has an advanced search page, you can use it to add words and phrases to include, omit topics, or refine the search with filters or specific criteria. Some advanced search forms also provide options to specify a time period, a language, or other options.

You can also improve your odds of finding the information that you are seeking by using related search. These are preprogrammed queries or questions suggested by the search engine that often lead to other Web pages containing similar information. Links are provided to pages that are related to the selected search results. Many search engines also list search terms at the bottom of the search results that are related to the search term you entered to help you refine your search.
