Googling Genealogy Search Tips

Back in July I posted an article titled, Getting the Most out of Google Searches. I had found an article at Ancestry.com that gave some tips for using the search engine with your genealogy research. I just found another article written by Kimberly Powell titled, Googling Genealogy Style. She lists 12 google search tips for genealogists. They are:

1. Search with a focus
2. Search without stops
3. Search suggested alternate spellings
4. Bring sites back from the dead
5. Find related sites
6. Follow the trail
7. Search within a site
8. Cover your bases
9. Find people, maps, and more
10. Pictures from the past
11. Glancing through google groups
12. Narrow your search by file type
