3. Applying The Basic Search Techniques Use the plus sign (+) to force a search for an overly common word. Use the minus sign (-) to exclude a term from a search. No space follows these signs. To search for a phrase, supply the phrase surrounded by double quotes (""). A period (.) serves as a single-character wildcard. An asterisk (*) represents any word—not the completion of a word, as is traditionally used. Topwebtoday.wordpress.com
4. Advanced Operators Google advanced operators help refine searches. Advanced operators use a syntax such as the following: operator:search_term Notice that there’s no space between the operator, the colon, and the search term. The site: operator instructs Google to restrict a search to a specific web site or domain. The web site to search must be supplied after the colon.

The web proxy basically acts as a middleman between your web browser and the third-party website you are visiting. Why should you do that? There are two common reasons: You’re connecting to a public network at a coffee shop or internet café and you want privacy while you browse the web. You don’t want the admin to know every site you visit. Topwebtoday.wordpress.com
18. You want to bypass a web content filter or perhaps a server-side ban on your IP address. Content filtering is common practice on college campus networks.

However, this trick is free and easy to access from anywhere via Google. All you have to do is look through the search results returned by the queries below, find a proxy that works, and enter in the URL of the site you want to browse anonymously. Examples: inurl:”nph-proxy.cgi” “start using cgiproxy” inurl:”nph-proxy.cgi” “Start browsing through this CGI-based proxy” Topwebtoday.wordpress.com
