Earlier this week, I attended an event for content creators at Google New York. I must say that the offices were quite impressive\u2026 While I was walking through the various areas, I started getting flashbacks to the investment banking days at Salomon Smith Barney. I assumed that the office was so cool and the food was so delicious because the company expected its workers to practically live there. I was happy to learn that I was wrong. Great perks plus sane work hours? Call me Google\u2026maybe? (I\u2019m just joking. I love working from home!) <\/p>\n

Anyway, I learned some helpful information about search, safety, Google plus and YouTube that I think you will appreciate. I am sharing the top 10 takeaways about Google Search below:<\/p>\n

1. Google is constantly changing its algorithms<\/strong> so that Google Search can better understand what users need and pull up searches that give them what they want.<\/p>\n

2. The keyword ads<\/strong> (on the top and side of the page) are based on your specific searches and your search history.
\n\u2028
\n3. Google Inside Search<\/a><\/strong> is a great site to learn how search works, because it details what is going on behind the scenes.<\/p>\n

4. If you type the name of a movie, \u201cweather\u201d or \u201ctime\u201d<\/strong> in the Google search bar, it will pull up your local information. You might have already known that, but I didn\u2019t!<\/p>\n

5. There are several different search tools that allow you to refine your search<\/strong> (i.e. time frame).
\n<\/p>

\"google<\/center>\n

6. Knowledge Graph<\/a><\/strong> is also another great way to explore different aspects of the topic that you are searching.<\/p>\n

7. You can also use modifiers<\/strong> to better help you with your search. Google\u2019s search operators page<\/a> gives some prime examples (i.e. excluding words from your search and searching within a specific site or domain). <\/p>\n

8. You can also search for public data <\/a>in Google web search. For instance, if you want to examine census and other public data over a period of time, you can easily get that information and place it in an embeddable Google chart<\/a>. <\/p>\n

9. Google \u2028Image searches<\/strong> are also helpful. They can easily be refined (by size, color, type and more).<\/p>\n

10. Now, if you feel like these tips have helped you become a search master, you might want to try out A Google a Day<\/a> on Google+. It\u2019s a fun trivia game that actually encourages the use of Google search to find the answers: <\/p>\n
