An internet search engineInternet search engineinternet search engine is a program or website that allows you to find information on the Internet according to the keywordskeywordskeywords or phrases provided by the user. The term „search engine” is used not only for websites that search for information, but also for software designed for indexing information on the Internet.

The most popular search engines are Google, Yahoo and Bing.

Keyword - this is a characteristic string of characters that is a distinctive feature of a document, article or website that directly relates to the content contained in them. The purpose of using keywords is to support the classification and retrieval of information.

If the user wants to find information on a specific topic, he can do it by entering keywords in the browser window of the Internet search engineInternet search engineInternet search engine. However, there are several elements that allow you to specify the content you are looking for and narrow the number of results:

1. Excluding a word or phrase - to exclude a word, precede it with a minus sign „-” without spaces.

   • Example: keywords -word

2. Selecting required words - to select a word, precede it with the plus sign „+” without spaces.

   • Example: keywords +word

3. Search for a specific phrase - in order for the search engine to find only pages containing a specific phrase, enter it in quotation marks.

   • Example: „keywords”

4. Searching for a phrase on a specific page - to search the site in terms of the content you are looking for, enter site:website_address, and then place the search phrase after the space.

   • Example: site:website_address keywords

To further narrow down the search area, you can also choose the option Narrow by language and then choose a specific language. Remember that most search engines are not case‑sensitive. An additional advantage of search engines is showing hints when entering the search phrase - it is helpful at the moment when we do not know, for example, the exact name or surname.

When searching, remember about:

1. update of information (date of addition),

2. accuracy and reliability of information (references to sources),

3. author's credibility (e‑mail address),

4. accessibility (e.g. adjustments to the user's age),

5. objectivism of the content (links to other websites that touch a topic).

With Google search engine, you can search for images in several ways:

1. Typing a keyword and switching the search engine from the All tab to the Images tab.

2. Image searchimage searchImage search - when searching for the same images in other resolutions or similar images. In this case, click the camera symbol located on the bar in which the search phrases are entered, and then select the graphic from the file or enter its source address.

Also in the case of images, you can narrow down the search area by selecting the Tools tab - thanks to that you can reduce the number of results for images of a given size, colour, usage rights, type or time of addition.
