Searching using google INSIDE OTT

[85Hokie]

How many times have we searched for "filter" and not got any results inside of OTT? OR due to the search mechanics - words too short will not work?

Using google.com type this: (place the word site: in front)

site:w w w.orangetractortalks.com (then topic of search) (no space b/w www)

example:

site:w w w.orangetractortalks.com B7100 oil filter type

this will ONLY search inside OTT .......now rather than typing all that up, save the bookmark or link blank - then add the data as you need it

I use Yahoo advanced search for ott and others.

I use the "SITE:" search particularly as the OTT engine will not let you search for threads with 3 characters like B21, so to search for B21 threads site:www etc "B21" is great.

Gee 85Hokie... what do you think you are.. some kind of teacher or something...

thanks for schooling the members. Searching sometimes feels like a black art.... but in reality..... it's just learnable science.

The owners/admins could add a Google search to the site and make it real easy for the members...
