#23> Wrapping a phrase in quotation marks forces Google to find pages where those exact words appear in that exact order. This hasn't been the case for at least five years surely?
It works some time. The problem is that you need it to actually search what you want, and it just ignores it every now and then.

#24FWIW, this article isn't your usual substack slop. There are some Googling tricks and techniques here that I've never seen documented elsewhere, such as AROUND(n).

#25A great resource - I decided hey, I’ll definitely forget this stuff so why not turn it into a tool for myself:
> Can you read https://cardcatalogforlife.substack.com/p/google-has-a-secre... and create a single file html tool (browser only, no backend) that lets users construct a Google search and jump to google with their query, helping them make use of the features mentioned when building up their query?

#26I use UDM14 (I don't like using or seeing AI anymore, and I've even tried to quit AI, which now that I think about it, I quit it now. I do not use AI anymore), and I also use quotation marks to search mostly everything I like, because without them I get irrelevant articles. I don't want to see a random website unrelated to the topic at hand, e.g. if I was searching "hockey" or "baseball" I don't want unrelated news. Works best with my language English, not so with agglutinative languages.
