Search engines often keep track of keywords that appear together on webpages. It is quite possible that other keywords exist that you may not have considered. Using this feature should turn up some other "hits" you may not have yet seen. You can use the same keywords you used earlier or modify that group of words now. Use the cut and paste method described earlier to insure that you are using an identical search string.

Add your observations on using this technique to your digital logbook and add bookmarks when you find appropriate resources. search engines continue
