Search Without Distraction

You are typing “marketing” but Google Search Machine keeps bringing back results not relevant to what you are looking for? Type:

define: marketing

You will get results that provide clear definition about marketing. Just pick the one you need and read it. If you want to narrow down the results, then try to use the AND + OR operator. For example:

marketing AND online courses

marketing OR digital marketing

• Search with an exact phrase and make your life easier! Put quotation marks around words “[any word]” to search for an exact phrase in an exact order. 
• Find related pages by using the related: operator to find pages that have similar content. Type related: followed by the website address.
