Checkpoint

It is extremely easy to just go to a website and believe all the information evan if inside you know it is not true. You can always check the information on the internet. For starters 1. you can check who the writer is and if they are really who they say they are. 2. Check if it is original information or if they have just copied it off another website.\ 3. If there is a fair amount of information and if there is all the information. Always remember: Unlike TV programmes and magazines, the internet does NOT have a group of people to check that the information being provided is correct.

Internet Serching Guide

This is a guide on how to use a search engine on the internet (Google, Yahoo, and Bing). There are many ways to limit the amount of results and get the best ones. With a few tips you can get a lot better results

1-      DO NOT use common words like “in, or, and, what, how”. Most search engines will ignore them but it is better not to use them.

2-      Put “  ” around common words that you do not want the search engine to ignore like the famous Shakespeare quote “to be or not to be”. They are all common words but you want them to be used in the search.

3-      If you want a search engine to specify on certain things with an added point than you add a “+” sign. For example, a hotel + swimming pool. If you want a search engine to look for results without a specific thing like a bar, hotel +Pool – bar.

4-      The most important rule is here “BE SPECIFIC”.  If you are not specific you will get thousands of useless results. The more specific the better results.

There are four simple rules to help you search on the internet and get reliable and good results.
