Google Advanced Search and Google Subdomain
The better you know how to search, the better you’ll get information. The most searched on the surface web is Google, so I will try to write with Google predominant here. According to Statcounter 2021, the total Search Engine Market Share Worldwide was 91.66% on Google, 2.74% on Bing, 1.53% on Yahoo, and 1.91% on Baidu.
The way we search on Google to find something may seem like enough to the average user, but it is never enough for an advanced user. for example, when a hacker confirms his target, he does enough research on his target. He reads in many ways about his target online resources.
Suppose my target name is ‘Md Sazibur Rahman’. I want to know what is online in his name, what are his social media accounts, what are the websites in his name, what are his pictures online, wanna know some information about these, so how do we find out? We may do a Google search with his name, which is done by ordinary Google users but it does not contain enough related information. That’s why we have to use Google Advanced Search. Below is a list of the most common types of advanced Google search operators:
Intitle:
Now if I just want to know what web page or site title resource is online in the name of my target ‘Md Sazibur Rahman’, then I have to use the Intitle operator. always use double quotations to get the best results.
intitle:”Md Sazibur Rahman”
Google has found 163 online resources under the name ‘Md Sazibur Rahman’.
Allintitle:
Allintitle operators often work in the same way as Intitle operators. However, with this operator, you will get his detailed information online under the name ‘Md Sazibur Rahman’.

Inurl:
If you want to find out if your target keyword is in an online URL, you need to use the Inurl operator. Suppose you are looking for a site where the word ‘ethical hacking’ must be in the site URL. Then you need to use the Inurl operator.

Google has 1,93,000 links that use the keyword ‘ethical hacking’.
