Phrase Searching

Google allows phrase searching.  Putting double quotes around a name or 2 keywords is the most precise way to search.  This tells the search engine to find only sites that have the words you want side-by-side.

Examples:

Tip: To search precisely, combine phrase searching with implied Boolean (+/-) or full Boolean (and, or, and not) operators.

Example: +"poison ivy" +symptoms

Caution: If a phrase search is combined with additional keywords using + and/or -, you need to put a + or - sign before the phrase in addition to the other keywords.  When the search consists of a phrase with no additional keywords ("To be or not to be",) you do not need a + before the quotes.
