Re: Etiquette of constructive criticism 101

Now I hope all the new people, (and some of the old people) read post 1 and follow it!

Just a tip for people looking for something on this site (I apologize if someone already posted this info), and knowing how hard it is to search on this site, here's how I use Google to something on PPCGeeks.com:

1. Go to Google.com (That one seems obvious!)
2. In the search bar type "MY SEARCH site:forum.ppcgeeks.com"

That second part will make Google look for your search term ONLY on PPCGEEKS.COM!

Now before anyone who doesn't already know how to use this google operator, the quotes don't need to be there, and MY SEARCH should be replaced with what text you're looking for. You can type in any search term and use the operator SITE: followed by a web address and Google will search that site only. Since all the forum posts come up with the forum.ppcgeeks.com URL format, this must be used after the SITE: operator, not just ppcgeeks.com.

This can be really helpful when you're doing a search for software version numbers (since it almost never works on this site's search feature, found that out looking for Arcsoft MMS), or for any search terms that don't meet the "3 letter rule" on the PPCGeeks search.

Hope this helps at least one person find what they are looking for on PPCGeeks.com...
