| 4. Search for the exact order of words:
If you are looking for the origin of a quote or a song you can only remember one line from, then this is the right tip to find what you are looking for. Simply put your search phrase inside quotation marks and search.
5. Search for items in a specific price range:
If you are looking for something to buy but you don't want google to show you all the price options simply use this handy little trick. First type in your term, let's say phone, and after that type the lowest and highest prices you're willing to pay with two periods (..). The end result should look like this: Phone 100$..200$. The more accurate the item you are looking for will be the better results you will get.
6. Limit your search to a website:
If you once read a good article on a site and you can't remember its name and how you got to it then it's very easy to find it again. Type "site:" followed by the URL of the website you'd like to search. A URL of a site looks like this: www.baba-mail.com. After the site name type the rest of your terms, for example: "site:"www.baba-mail.com dog.
7. Search for a GIF:
A GIF is a type on animated picture file looping over and over like a very short (mostly poor quality) video. Finding GIFs is as easy as using the Google images search. Go to Google Images, type what you are looking for, click "Search tools" and then "Type". A small drop down list will appear, select "Animated" and search. The results you'll get might look like normal pictures at first but press on any of them and you will see their animation.
8. Setting a timer:
Not really a search option, but still a very useful feature if you want to remind yourself to take a break or to take something out of the oven. Type "set timer for" into the search bar and you will see the Google timer as your first result. Enter the time you want in hours, minutes or seconds, and start the timer, Google will start beeping when the time runs out.
