Can I Google That?

Using Google

site: tool

Use site: in Google to narrow your results. Get you what you need faster.

Use site:.gov to find only websites ending in .gov. Like this:

null

 

You can also use site: to search within websites. Find the base URL of a site (commercialappeal.com, for example). In Google, type your keywords, then use site:commercialappeal.com. Google will only search within The Commercial Appeal. This can be done with any website, not just newspapers.
