To search for a word on a page, the most common and effective method is to use your browser's built-in search function:
- On Windows or Chromebook, press Ctrl + F on your keyboard.
- On a Mac, press Command + F.
This will open a small search bar where you can type the word or phrase you want to find. The browser will then highlight all occurrences of that word on the current page, and you can navigate through them using arrow keys or buttons in the search bar
. Alternatively, if you want to search for a word across an entire website or
specific web pages without opening them, you can use Google Search with the
site: operator:
- Go to Google.com.
- In the search bar, type
site:followed by the website URL and then the word or phrase you want to find. For example:site:example.com vitamin C. - Press Enter, and Google will show results from that site containing your search term
In summary, for searching a word on a single page, use Ctrl/Command + F.
For searching a word across a website or multiple pages, use Google with the
site: operator.
