Searching Google for Websites

You can try the following Google search strategies to limit results to specific domains, websites, or find related sites if you find an organization or site of use:

  • limit results to a specific type of web domain using site: 
    • examples: site:.gov ... site:.edu
  • limit results to a specific website using site:
    • examples: site:noaa.gov ... site:usgs.gov/science/science-explorer/natural-hazards

With the Google searches, it's important to remove all spaces after the colon (i.e. site:.org not site: .org) to maximize relevant results.
