Learn About Advanced Google Operators

There are many helpful advanced search engine operators that can be of great value and importance to the webmasters if they are used properly. Read below about them and how they can be useful:

Cache Command Operator- This operator tells you about whether your site has been indexed and when it was indexed.All you have to do is type the url of your website after the word "cache:" (for e.g "cache:www.segnant.com)into the Google search engine and you will know when your site was last indexed. This operator also displays the web page that was indexed last time so that you get the latest version of the page that was indexed. The cache operator can be really helpful in case you have lost your website and backup data due to some major computer failure. With this operator, you can get all lost data back in the form that Google last indexed it. The only problem may be the amount of time it will take to retrieve the web pages depending upon how big or small the website is. Not only to the webmasters, the cache command can be and has been a great help to the forensic experts also in retrieving incriminating evidence against criminals. And those webmasters who think that by using a "no cache" tag they can block Google from caching their sites should better know that doing this does not affect web rankings.

Link Command Operator-This operator, used along with the domain name informs you about the number of links pointing to your site. By using the syntax "“link:http://www.segnant.com/", with your website's url mentioned, you get to see the total number of links indexed by Google that are linking to you.

Inurl Operator-This operator restricts your search to one site only. Like if I type the url of my company "inurl:www.segnant.com guaranteed SEO", it will show you the guaranteed SEO webpage only. This can be especially helpful in case when you are looking for a specific phrase on one site.

Intitle Operator-This operator helps you find out websites that have a particular keyword in their title tag. So by typing "intitle:web design" or any other search term you are looking for, you can find the website having that keyword in it's title tag.

Allinurl and Allintitle Operators-These operators help in finding out for a string of keywords in either a title or site. So starting a query with allinurl operator command will restrict your results to those pages that have all the query words in the url. For e.g by typing "allinurl:www.segnant.com segnant" will give you only documents that have segnant word in them.
