Subject Finder Search Help

Subject Finder, a web directory, helps you find only educational websites which contain information, research resources, tutorials, learning and teaching materials easily without overwhelmed with a huge number of search results such as Accounting, Arts and Design, Biology, Business, Chemistry, Computing, Construction, Counselling, Economics, Electronics, Engineering, Geography, Health, History, Law, Languages, Mathematics, Physics, Psychology, Reference, Science, Social Science, Sociology, Travel, etc.

Here is how it works. You tell Subject Finder what you are looking for by typing in keyword(s) in the search box. Subject Finder responds by giving you a list of all the web pages in the Subject Finder index relating to those topics and the relevant content will appear at the search engine result page.

Alternatively, you can browse the Subject Finder's directory which is the fastest way to find information on a specific subject. Browsing through the categories is particularly useful when you're not sure how to use keyword(s) in the Subject Finder's search box.

How to use the Subject Finder:

  1. Type your keyword(s) in the search box.
  2. If you want Subject Finder to find the web pages that contain all the words you have typed, select the option "All Words".
  3. Alternatively, if you want Subject Finder to find the web pages that contain at least one of the words you have typed, select the option "Any Words".
  4. Click the Search button to start the search.

An example using "All Words":

  1. Type Internet Tutorials in the search box and select the option "All Words".
  2. Click the Search button or press the Enter key.
  3. The search engine result page will return with a list of web pages, which contain both the words "Internet" and "Tutorials".

An example using "Any Words":

  1. Type Geometry Algebra in the search box and select the option "Any Words".
  2. Click the Search button or press the Enter key.
  3. The search engine result page will return with a list of the web pages containing the word "Geometry" plus the web pages containing the word "Algebra".

What is a keyword?

When searching, think of a keyword or keywords as a combination of letters. The search engine needs a keyword or keywords in order to find exactly what you want from the Subject Finder database. If you type more than one keyword in the search box, you must separate the keywords using a space.

You can use lowercase or uppercase keyword(s), as Subject Finder is not case sensitive. For example, searching for "Maths" will match the lowercase "maths" & uppercase "MATHS", and vice versa.
