Table of Contents
filetype:
If you are looking for a specific file(pdf, ppt, docx etc.) then “filetype:” operator will make sure that results fetched as a result of search only contain that specific file type. For example if you are searching for keyword “SEO Guide” and you need guide in the form of pdf then you can specify filetype:pdf to make sure only few and relevant results are fetched by Google.
You can copy and paste: “SEO Guide” filetype:pdf and search on Google to get clear understanding.
site:
“Site:” operator will make sure that results fetched by Google are from the specified site only. For example if you need to fetch results from site “www.yourtechnologyguide.com” only then you can search for site:www.yourtechnologyguide.com. Google will display all the search results from this specific website.
If you need to extract more specific result from the same website then you can specify those keywords after site URL or Domain name.
For example site:www.yourtechnologyguide.com low competition skills will fetch results containing “low competition skills” phrase from the specified website. Instead of displaying million of results Google will extract only few relevant results according to your search.
intitle:
“intitle:” operator will ensure that the results fetched by Google contain the certain words in the title. For example intitle:iPhone will fetch all the results containing “iPhone” in the title.
intext:
“intext:” operator will fetch results containing specified keywords in the content. The difference between “intitle:” and “intext:” operator is that the first one will check for the specified keywords in title and second one will check in the page content. For example intext:iPhone will fetch all the pages that have word “iPhone” somewhere in the page content.

“weather:” operator is useful when you want to fetch the weather details of specific location. For example weather:new york will fetch weather details for New York in Google Search Results.

it will fetch all the information about the specified movie. For example movie:Citizen Kane will force Google to fetch all the information related to “Citizen Kane” Movie. Similarly, you can specify any keyword and get all information extracted from Google relevant to that movie.
