Time and again clients ask me questions and seek advice they could just as easily have found out themselves had they simply used Google, or used Google better.

The secret here is truly getting to know Google, and even if you think you know Google very well, spend some time once a month getting re-acquainted. It is constantly moving on and changing. However if you have not spent time understanding the advanced search features,  exploring some of their specialist search portals and sister sites then you are missing out on maximising the value of the web.

Once you have a good grip on the advanced functionality of Google you will find your search time decreases and the usability of your results will increase.

There are a few key titles that I think will help anyone and you should take a few hours out to read through them and practice some of the tips and techniques contained there-in.
