Best Way to get Correct Google Search Results

If we want to find about something we use Google search engine to find it. Google is the most popular search engine. But sometimes we won't get correct answers. That because we don't use correct search requests.  There are few ways to get correct answers  on the Google search. All results are depending on the keywords that you are using. In this post i'll give some hints and few Google search tricks to get correct answers on Google search.

When you ask Google search Engine to find something, it will search your keywords on it's data base. Search results may depend on Keyword density and Page Rank of the matching pages. Most of the times pages with higher Page rank will appear first. So you have to enter the right search criteria in search request. if not Google will give you some sites with matching results, not what you exactly wanted. When you start to enter your keywords, Google will show you some suggestions related to your search. you can select one of them or enter full request. Following screen shot shows when i try to search about laser printers it shows me some suggestions about laser printers. also it shows the highest ranked page which does have information about laser printers.



Now im going to tell you the most important Trick, Use all keywords in search 

When you wanted to search something on google, you can get the best result by entering the full list of keywords. Think that you want to download Kungfu panda 2 movie. When you search for it Google will show you pages to watch it, Buy it, Download it with paid premium accounts and free download sites. so lets limit search results to free downloads by entering search request like this "Free Download Kungfu panda 2" Now google will show you sites which allows you to download Kungfu panda 2 for free. But there are many versions of it. Cam rips and very low quality videos. DVD rips, BRrips(BluRay)and versions with Embedded Subtitles. So we have to filter our search results again. Lets search to download BluRay Rip. 
                    Now our search request will be like this "Free Download Kungfu panda 2 BRrip" Google will show us all free download sites contains Kungfu panda 2 BRrip. not completed yet. there are many ways you can download it. Torrents( Which needs torrent software like bittorrent ), Direct Link downloads( Most of the times you will need paid premium accounts ), Rapidshare and mediafire links. personally i prefer downloading movies with Mediafire. It's easy and you can download multiple files using Internet download manager. Unlimited download speed with new media-fire site. lets search for mediafire links to download our movie. so change Search request like this. "Free Download Kungfu panda 2 BRrip Mediafire links" seems that enough. you will get all sites that include mediafire links to download Kungfu panda 2 for free.
Thats the way to get the best result. Put all keywords in the search request to get the perfect result on the top of the search result. It will save your time. hope this will help you. In next post i will post another great search tricks to get  more easier and accurate search results. So visit us again. Like our Facebook Fan page and Subscribe to Rss feed or E-mail Subscription.

What is Cloud Computing, Cloud Technology | Secured File hosing in Cloud Servers

What do you Know about the Cloud technology. Cloud is a new idea for secured and well organized computer usage. Software Engineers and other Computer professionals have done lots of improvements to the Cloud system. Cloud means some highly secured area to store your data as an online backup. Or you can permanently Store your files on the Cloud and use them from anywhere you go with any device like Laptops, Desktops even your mobile phone with internet connectivity. Cloud Storage is more secured than other file storage methods and File hosting methods. Because Cloud Storage  is  more powerful and Well secured technology. No one  can hack into Cloud Servers. Lets read How we can get Cloud services and Advantages of using Cloud Servers.


When you have a private files or documents on a Cloud Hosting Server, You are the one who have the access for those files. No one can use them or hack in to it. Lots of people starting to use Cloud Servers because this advanced security features in Cloud Storage devices. Lets see what are the advantages of using Cloud Storage

Advantages of using Cloud Storage
* Cloud is a Very big storing space. When you using Cloud Hosting, you don't need to buy extra hard disks to store your data or keep secondary back up for them.
* Cloud is well  secured File storing system. Because of that Cloud Servers are the best place to store your important and private data.
* Your Computer or Hard disks might stop working. What if your hard  disk suddenly stopped working? You will loss your data. Cloud has the best hardware and new tools. they are ready to work 24x7 without any problems.
* Some people might think that they have backups in another hard disk so they don't have to worry about. but imagine an accident like a fire or some thing. what if your computer system completely unusable after that? That's why you have to use Cloud  Hosting.
* You can always Sync your data with Cloud Servers. so you don't have to worry about your files. You can access the backup of your files on the Cloud From anywhere in the world.

Here im giving you a Free Cloud Hosting Software. This is very easy to use. Just Download and install small client software and Upload and use 2GB of online Cloud Server Space. it  has all basic file  sharing features and you can increase your Cloud Space uo to 10 GB for free. Click this Image to Get Your Free Cloud Hosting package

Click this yellow image to Download DropBox. Normally you will get 2GB Cloud Storage from Drop Box. But when you register through our site  you will get extra 250 MB and  you can earn up to 10GB free storage. try it now. Make your free account and reserve your storage before this offers going to stop. I don't think they will keep giving people extra free hosting. so better to get registered before those offers finished. you can use it when  you wanted. Registered users will have all benefits even after they have stopped giving free Cloud accounts anymore.


I will post how to use Drop Box to upload and use them.

Google is going to Track facebook chat and Comments | Facebook Web Traffic

Facebook has introduced lots of new Features recently. Few days ago they have introduced the Facebook chat subscribe for the plugin they have made to use in blogger  pages and web sites. This will be the next version of it. When you subscribed to someones comments on a blog, it will  give notifications to you when he comment on that blog. That is the difference between Profile Subscription and Comment Subscription. Let's see some details and advantage  of this new Facebook comment indexing feature.

I Don't know why Facebook has given permissions to Google to access the Facebook chat and comments. That means third party sites can spy  on our chat history. That is something i won't like. it feels Facebook giving our privacy opened to others. Anonymous Hackers Team  said that facebook sell our details to third party Organizations and Government. Finally they have proved  that they going to reveal our privacy to another company.

Anyways there are a good side also. This will be better than Comment Subscription. Because when Google can index comments on pages and blog posts we can search for the comments as we do for blog posts. It will be useful to find a post in a blog which  have lots of similar type posts. 



Google will index comments both inside and outside from Facebook. When you use Facebook comment box on a blog like i used in this blog, Google bot or spiders will index comments while indexing posts. If you  like to know more about How Google bot index blog posts and Add your blog to Google Search engine with optimized better SEO tricks, Download this Free Search Engine Optimization E-Book written by Google  web masters. 
  
Still they don't index Facebook comments. Google still developing this system. It might take little time to develop and release. Let's wait till then. With indexed comments Facebook will give us lots of good SEO and keyword density.

Easy way to download Youtube and other online videos free without softwares

Almost everyone wants to download some or other video of his/her choice from Youtube.com, Google’s site, which is one of the most popular video site. You can find hundreds of softwares to do it. But most of them are not free to use.They might allow you to download low quality videos or to download only few minutes. You might use cracks and register those softwares. So its ok. But when you are not at home,  In a Cafe, Friends home you cant use your softwares when you needed. You cant download them and reinstall again to download a Video from web. So there must be an easy way. im going to show you how to to it.
                                           There are lot of online sites and tools promising some or other way to download youtube.com videos permanently on to PC. I have used most of such sites and am recommending one free site that lets you download youtube.com videoto your pc. You can download videos faster than streaming with quality. Interesting! Isn’t it great as once you have downloaded youtube.com video, you can see it at the desired resolution without even getting connected to the Internet. I'll post step by step details to use this feature.

At the top left of your youtube.com browser window, in the address bar you will see some characters before & starting with youtube.com such as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sktLW2au13k (shown with the red big oval in the next screenshot). Highlight and copy the full address of that video.


Now go to savevid.com/  and paste that URL in the url box as shown in below.


If this is is first time you are downloading video from savevid.com, it will prompt for installation of a plugin along with Java. Install the same without any worries and follow the instructions that appear for Running the Java etc. If you have java and plugins configured, Download will automatically started. Also, after the installation of Plugin at Savevid.com is over, click on Download again (make sure that the youtube video address is there in URL window)

* If you again get the warning that Savevid.com plugin is not installed ignore it and click on some option to inform the window alert that it’s already installed.

Now after clicking on Download, you will see a small window on left showing the picture of video of yours choice on left along with different formats of the video to be downloaded such as .flv, .mp4, .3gp and HD etc. with the relevant sizes (shown in the next screenshot) The more the size of the video format, the better will be the quality of the video downloaded from youtube.com. But take care of the hard disk space on your PC because if you download too many high resolution videos, finally you may end up with shortage or no hard disk space. Click on which format of video you want to download, choose the download path on your PC (Drive\folder) and click on OK on the Video Download window.

Also, another big plus point of savevid.com is that it can download not only online videos from youtube.com but also videos from reputed video sites such as: 












http://rutube.ru (Russian video site)



  


The above URL’s of the video sites from where videos can be downloaded using savevid.com is as per the names of the videos sites available at savevid.com front page. There can be changes in the above URL’s of the video sites from where savevid.com can download videos in future. Hope you will enjoy this feature :)
