    Default SEARCH Grandprixforums.net How-TO

    I found a good way to search for stuff on the site using google. Some people may already know this but for those that don't, its pretty helpful.

    All you do is type in.

    site:grandprixforums.net: (enter search term here)

    On the google search bar
    Don't include the brackets

    Hopefully this helps some people, I know it has helped me.

    Typing "Grand Prix" without quotes usually leads you back to this forum anyway using bing or google.

    Ya but this way it searches this site only, which imo is usually the most helpful.

    Note that the pages have to be indexed by Google to appear there, so anything really new or hidden from crawlers won't show up.

    The site's owner could set up a search bar through Google, which can be customized and monetized (optional) for free. I use it for my sites, though it's more function than financially beneficial.
