Keywords and phrases

  • Specify words which must appear in articles, and words that must not, to remove irrelevent results: q=gamestop +stonks -sell
  • Boolean operators AND / OR / NOT and brackets are supported so you can do this: q=(crypto AND bitcoin) NOT ethereum
  • Limit your search specifically within titles, or content: qInTitle="title search"
