The best way to locate information on the Internet is by using a search engine, an Internet subject guide, or a meta search engine. A search engine is an index to millions of pages on the World Wide Web and each different search engine looks at those pages a little bit differently.
Most search engines are free to use and there are many to choose from.
Search engines provide you with spaces to enter keywords or phrases that are used to search the Internet. In many cases, a satisfactory Internet search can be accomplished by entering a few good keywords or phrases. However, most search engines also include advanced search features that you can use to construct more precise searches.
