Some of Google tricks

    Manually type the following prefixes and note their utility:
    • link:url Shows other pages with links to that url.
    • related:url same as "what's related" on serps.
    • site:domain restricts search results to the given domain.
    • allinurl: shows only pages with all terms in the url.
    • inurl: like allinurl, but only for the next query word.
    • allintitle: shows only results with terms in title.
    • intitle: similar to allintitle, but only for the next word. "intitle:seoforgoogle google" finds only pages with seoforgoogle in the title, and google anywhere on the page.
    • cache:url will show the Google version of the passed url.
    • info:url will show a page containing links to related searches, backlinks, and pages containing the url. This is the same as typing the url into the search box.
    • spell: will spell check your query and search for it.
    • stocks: will lookup the search query in a stock index.
    • filetype: will restrict searches to that filetype. "-filetype:pdf" to remove Adobe PDF files.
    • daterange: is supported in Julian date format only. 2452384 is an example of a Julian date.
    • maps: If you enter a street address, a link to Yahoo Maps and to MapBlast will be presented.
    • phone: enter anything that looks like a phone number to have a name and address displayed. Same is true for something that looks like an address (include a name and zip code)
    • site:www.olipathivu.com "+www.olipathivu.+com" - (tells you how many pages of your site are indexed by google)
    • allintext: searches only within text of pages, but not in the links or page title
    • allinlinks: searches only within links, not text or title
