Tips on searching
Read tips provided by each search engine, directory or multi/mega engine
Use synonyms if you are having trouble with a particular keyword/phrase
Decide which search tools (engine, directory or multi/mega-engine) would work best for you and your needs
Use more than one search engine or subject directory; this will expand the results of your search
Make sure the spelling of the keyword/phrase is correct
Be aware that some search tools (engine, directory or multi/mega-engine) have a percent symbol
located on the side of the annotation. This indicates the amount of information that
is relevant to the key words/phrases. The higher the percentage, the closer the result
is to the search criteria
