Information Sheet
Search Engine

Search engines are one of the primary ways that Internet users find Web sites.
That's why a Web site with good search engine listings may see a dramatic increase in
traffic.

On the Internet, a search engine is a coordinated set of programs that includes:

 A spider (also called a "crawler" or a "bot") that goes to every page or represen-
tative pages on every Web site that wants to be searchable and reads it, using
hypertext links on each page to discover and read a site's other pages.

 A program that creates a huge index (sometimes called a "catalog") from the
pages that have been read.

 A program that receives your search request, compares it to the entries in the in-
dex, and returns results to you.

An alternative in using a search engine is to explore a structured directory of top-

ics. Yahoo, which also lets you use its search engine, is the most widely-used directory
on the Web. A number of Web portal sites offer both the search engine and directory
approaches to finding information.

Different Search Engine Approaches

There are some approaches the search engine do to search the different infor-
mation found in the Internet. Some of them are the following:

 Major search engines such as Google, Yahoo (which uses Google), Baidu,
Bing, Ask and AOL index the content of a large portion of the Web and pro-
vide results that can run for pages - and consequently overwhelm the
user.

 Specialized content search engines are selective about what part of the
Web is crawled and indexed.

 Ask Jeeves (http://www.ask.com) provides a general search of the Web but

allows you to enter a search request in natural language, such as "What's
the weather in Manila today?"

 Special tools and some major Web sites such as Yahoo let you use a num -
ber of search engines at the same time and compile results for you in a
single list.

 Individual Web sites, especially larger corporate sites, may use a search
engine to index and retrieve the content of just their own site. Some of the
major search engine companies license or sell their search engines for use
on individual sites.

Data based from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_search_engine

There are about ten major search engines, each with its own anchor Web site (al -
though some have an arrangement to use another site's search engine or license their
own search engine for use by other Web sites). Some sites, such as Yahoo, search not
only using their search engine but also give you the results from simultaneous searches
of other search indexes. Sites that let you search multiple indexes simultaneously in-
clude:
 Google (http://www.google.com)
 Yahoo (http://www.yahoo.com)
 search.com (http://search.com)
 EasySearcher (http://www.easysearcher.com)

Yahoo first searches its own hierarchically-structured subject directory and gives
you those entries. Then, it provides a few entries from the AltaVista search engine. It
also launches a concurrent search for entries matching your search argument with six
or seven other major search engines. You can link to each of them from Yahoo (at the
bottom of the search result page) to see what the results were from each of these
search engines.

A significant advantage of a Yahoo search is that if you locate an entry in Yahoo,

it's likely to lead you to a Web site or entire categories of sites related to your search
argument.

A search.com search primarily searches the Infoseek index first but also lets you
search the other major search engines as well.

EasySearcher lets you choose from either the popular search engines or a very
comprehensive list of specialized search engine/databases in a number of fields.

Yahoo, search.com, and EasySearcher all provide help with entering your search
phrase. Most Web portal sites offer a quickly-located search entry box that connects
you to the major search engines.

 Introduction

How to Search

For tips on entering your search argument, see each search engine, including Ya-
hoo's . It's good to read the information at least once.

By "How to Search," we mean a general approach to searching: what to try first,

how many search engines to try when to quit. It's difficult to generalize, but this is the
general approach to use:

1. If you know of a specialized search engine that matches your subject (for exam -
ple, Networking), you'll save time by using that search engine.
2. If there isn't a specialized search engine, try Yahoo. Sometimes you'll find a
matching subject category or two and that's all you'll need.
3. If Yahoo doesn't turn up anything, try AltaVista, Google, Hotbot, Lycos, and per-
haps other search engines for their results. Depending on how important the
search is, you usually don't need to go below the first 20 entries on each.
4. If you haven't found what you need, consider using the subject directory ap -
proach to searching. Look at Yahoo or someone else's structured organization of
subject categories and see if you can narrow down a category your term or
phrase is likely to be in. If nothing else, this may give you ideas for new search
phrases.
5. If you feel it's necessary, also search the Usenet newsgroups as well as the Web.
6. As you continue to search, keep rethinking your search arguments. What new
approaches could you use? What are some related subjects to search for that
might lead you to the one you really want?
7. Consider whether your subject is so new that not much is available on it yet. If
so, you may want to go out and check the very latest computer and Internet
magazines or locate companies that you think may be involved in research or
development related to the subject.

Different strategies for boosting search engine performance:

1. Identify keywords

When conducting a search, break down the topic into key concepts. For example,
to find information on what the DepEd has said about the TechVoc curriculum, the key-
words might be:

DepEd TechVoc curriculum

2. Boolean string

a. AND

Connecting search terms with AND tells the search engine to re-
trieve web pages containing all the keywords.

DepEd and TechVoc and curriculum

Work with Microsoft Word 2010 LO1: Explore Microsoft Word 2010 Applica- 4
tion|
 Introduction

The search engine will not return pages with just the word DepEd.
Neither will it return pages with the word DepEd and TechVoc. The serach en-
gine will only return pages where the words DepEd, TechVoc and curriculum
all appear somewhere on the page. Thus, AND helps to narrow search results
as it limits results to pages where all the keywords appear.

b. OR

Linking search terms with OR tells the search engine to retrieve web
pages containing any and all keywords.

DepEd or TechVoc or curriculum

When OR is used, the search engine returns pages with a single

keyword, several keywords, and all keywords. Thus, OR expands your search
results. Use OR when you have common synonyms for a keyword. Surround
OR statements with parentheses for best results. To narrow results as much as
possible, combine OR statements with AND statements.

For example, the following search statement locates information on

purchasing a used car:

(car or automobile or vehicle) and (buy or purchase) and used

c. AND NOT

AND NOT tells the search engine to retrieve web pages containing one
keyword but not the other.

dolphins and not Miami

The above example instructs the search engine to return web pages
about dolphins but not web pages about the "Miami Dolphins" football team.
Use AND NOT when you have a keyword that has multiple meanings. The need
for AND NOT often becomes apparent after you perform an initial search. If
your search results contain irrelevant results (e.g., Saturn the car rather than
Saturn the planet), consider using AND NOT to filter out the undesired web-
sites.

3. Implied Boolean String

a. PLUS & MINUS

In many search engines, the plus and minus symbols can be used
as alternatives to full Boolean AND and AND NOT. The plus sign (+) is the

Work with Microsoft Word 2010 LO1: Explore Microsoft Word 2010 Applica- 5
tion|
 Introduction
equivalent of AND, and the minus sign (-) is the equivalent of AND NOT. There
is no space between the plus or minus sign and the keyword.

+welding +process
+Saturn -car

couch sofa

tion|
 Introduction
4. Phrase Searching

Surrounding a group of words with double quotes tells the search engine to only
retrieve documents in which those words appear side-by-side. Phrase searching is a
powerful search technique for significantly narrowing your search results, and it should
be used as often as possible.

"Gloria Macapagal Arroto"

"Development Academy Philippines"

"global warming"

For best results, combine phrase searching with implied Boolean (+/-) or full
Boolean (AND, OR, and AND NOT) logic.

+"heart disease" +cause

"heart disease" and cause

The above example tells the search engine to retrieve pages where the words
heart disease appear side-by-side and the word cause appears somewhere else on the
page.

NOTE ON IMPLIED BOOLEAN LOGIC (+/-): When a phrase search is combined with addi-
tional keywords using implied Boolean logic (+/-), you must put a plus or minus sign be -
fore the phrase as well as the other keywords. If the search involves a phrase with no
additional keywords (e.g., "Walt Disney World"), the plus sign before the quotes is op -
tional.

5. Plural Forms, capital letters, and alternate spellings

Most search engines interpret lower case letters as either upper or lower case.
Thus, if you want both upper and lower case occurrences returned, type your keywords
in all lower case letters. However, if you want to limit your results to initial capital let -
ters (e.g., "Gloria Arroyo") or all upper case letters, type your keywords that way.

Like capitalization, most search engines interpret singular keywords as singular

or plural. If you want plural forms only, make your keywords plural.

A few search engines support truncation or wildcard features that allow varia-
tions in spelling or word forms. The asterisk (*) symbol tells the search engine to return
alternate spellings for a word at the point that the asterisk appears. For example, capi-
tal* returns web pages with capital, capitals, capitalize, and capitalization.

6. Title search

Field searching is one of the most effective techniques for narrowing results and
getting the most relevant websites listed at the top of the results page. A web page is
composed of a number of fields, such as title, domain, host, URL, and link. Searching
effectiveness increases as you combine field searches with phrase searches and Bool-

Work with Microsoft Word 2010 LO1: Explore Microsoft Word 2010 Applica- 7
tion|
 Introduction
ean logic. For example, if you wanted to find information about Gloria Arroyo and her
husband Mike, you could try the following search:

+title:"Gloria Arroyo" +President +Mike

title:"Gloria Arroyo" and President and Mike

The above TITLE SEARCH example instructs the search engine to return web
pages where the phrase George Washington appears in the title and the words Presi -
dent and Martha appear somewhere on the page. Like plus and minus, there is no
space between the colon (:) and the keyword.

7. Domain search

In addition to the title search, other helpful field searching strategies include the
domain search, the host search, the link search, and the URL search. The DOMAIN
SEARCH allows you to limit results to certain domains such as websites from the Philip-
pines (.ph), educational institutions (.edu), or government sites (.gov).

+domain:ph +title:"Manny Pacquiao"

domain:ph and title:"Manny Pacquiao"

+domain:edu +"lung cancer" +smok*

domain:edu and "lung cancer" and smok*

The current domains are the following:

.com = a commercial business

.edu = an educational institution
.gov = a governmental institution
.org = a non-profit organization
.mil = a military site
.net = a network site

Most websites originating outside the U.S. have a country domain indicating the
country of origin. See Appendix A –Country Domain

8. Host search

The HOST SEARCH comes in handy when you need to find something located at
a large site that does not have an internal search engine. With this search technique,
you can search all the pages at a website (contained in the engine's database) for key-
words or phrases of interest.

NOTE: Because the major search engines do not always log an entire website, use an
internal search engine, if the website has one, for best results.

+host:www.dap.edu.ph +"special offer"

Work with Microsoft Word 2010 LO1: Explore Microsoft Word 2010 Applica- 8
tion|
 Introduction
host:www.dap.edu.ph and "special offer"

9. URL search

The URL SEARCH limits search results to web pages where the keyword appears
in the URL or website address. A URL search can narrow very broad results to web
pages devoted to the keyword topic.

+url:christmas +title:stories

url:christmas and title:stories

10. Link search

Use the LINK SEARCH when you want to know what websites are linked to a par -
ticular site of interest. For example, if you have a home page and you are wondering if
anyone has put a link to your page on their website, use the Link search. Researchers
use link searches for conducting backward citations.

Information Sheet
Saving a Web picture, copying, and printing from the Web
When you visit a web page, you might like an image (graphic) or picture
on it so much that you want to save a copy of it for yourself for whatever reason.
It is easy to capture an image from the web. But before I tell you how, let me
warn you that most items (that includes text and graphics) on a web page are
generally copyrighted and it is illegal to grab somebody else's copyrighted prod-
ucts without the owner's previous written permission.

Read the little note about copyright. The note below is by no means com-
plete legal information about copyright. This is very basic information to give you
a sense of what it is so that you are not sued for copyright infringement by any -
body.

Copyright

The creator of anything, whether it is a drawing, photo, painting, text, po -

etry, music, movie, video or anything, as soon as he/she has recorded it or saved
it (called fixation) on paper, film, or electronic media becomes the legal owner of
it, irrespective of the fact whether he/she attaches a copyright notice on it. No -
body can copy and use somebody else's creation without the lawful owner's prior
written consent. However, it is usually tolerable to copy something from the In-
ternet for one's own personal use (such as copying a photo from the Internet to
make wallpaper on your computer's desktop). But please remember it is not ac-
ceptable to copy a picture from one site and put it up on your own web site with -
out the permission of the rightful owner of the picture. Always e-mail the person
first to seek permission before you use somebody else's creations. And never
download music or video from commercial sites even for your own use. These
are almost invariably copyrighted products, and if caught you may be sued for
damages.

Not all things in the Internet are always copyrighted. Some of the things
are in public domain, meaning nobody has copyright to them. These are usually
old things - nobody knows who created them - and going on forever. Copyright
owners may intentionally release some of the things to public domain. And 75
years after the copyright owner's death, things go in the public domain.

Now that you know about copyrighted products, you can now copy, save
or print some information from the Internet.

Capturing an image from a web page

Here are the steps in capturing an image or picture from a web page.

1. Right-click on the image you want to capture.

2. A small menu will open up. Find and click on "Save Image As ..."

 Introduction

Figure 6.1 This menu will appear when you right-click on the image.
3. A "Save Picture" dialog box will open up.

b
c

Figure 6.2 Save as dialog box

4. In this dialog box,

a. you need to specify the location where you want to save the file (i.e.,
name of the folder in the Save in box)
b. give a short but descriptive File name (a name of the file will already be
there, but you may want to change it to something of your own choos-
ing),
c. select Save as type, that is .jpg or .gif or .bmp, .png etc.
5. Now click on "Save". The image will be saved in your computer in the folder you
have specified under the file name you have given or accepted.

As you can see from the above screen shot, the menu also gives you the
options to copy it so that you can paste it to any application such as your word
processor. Just click on the option you want.

Copying text from the web

You have already known how to copy an image from a web page. To copy text:

1. Highlight the part you want to copy.

2. Right-click on the selected text or press Ctrl+C.
3. Open a word processor such as Notepad, Word Pad or Word and paste the
copied text.

 Introduction
If you are copying a large amount of text, the easiest way to highlight the
text is to click where you want the highlighting to begin and then press the Shift
key and while pressing down the Shift key, click where you want the highlighting
to end. The entire chunk of the text will then become highlighted which you can
now copy by pressing the Ctrl and C keys simultaneously.

Printing from the web

Printing a page or part of a page from the web can sometimes be a little
tricky. Many web pages have special formatting, and they contain a lot of unde-
sirable graphics, advertisements etc. which you may not want to print. Luckily,
many such pages also give an option (often in the form of a button) for a "Printer
friendly version" or something similar. Just click on that option. You will see the
page changes to a simple looking page with most of the unwanted things gone,
just the main substance remaining.

To print the whole document:

1. Click on the browser's printer icon. Or right-click on the document and then click
on Print.

To print a part of the document:

1. Highlight the portion you want to print.

2. Right-click on the highlighted portion, click on Print, choose Selection and then
hit OK.

To print certain pages of the document:

1. Click on the browser's printer icon.

2. Click print.
3. Instead of choosing Print Selection, you can choose Print Pages from x to y in this
dialog box and then hit OK. The desired pages will be printed out.

To print the page in black and white:

Most printers will give you an option of printing in grayscale, meaning the col-
ored parts of the page will be printed in various shades of gray. This is a useful option
as it lets you save the colored ink in your printer which is more expensive than black
ink.

1. On Print dialog box, click on Properties.

2. Another dialog box will open up. In that dialog box select Print in Grayscale by
putting a check mark in the box next to it.
3. Click on OK. Needless to say, if you want to be thrifty and want to economize on
the printing ink, you can always choose "EconoFast" or "Draft" or something sim -
ilar in this dialog box for print quality. Choose this mode whenever printing
something for your own use, and not for presenting it to others.

Figure 6.3 Printer dialog box in printing web page

Use this dialog box to print the entire document or to print certain
specific page(s) or selected text. You can specify here the number
of copies desired. You can also tell the printer in this dialog box
how to print frames or which frame to print.

If you click on the Properties button of the above dialog box, another dia -
log box will open up as shown below.

Figure 6.4 Printer Preferences dialog box

In this box you can choose whether you want color print or print in
grayscale. Unless you choose print in grayscale, color will be chosen automati -
