Hello friends.

We always try to find something on the internet and the best way is to find that is using search engine and when we thought about search engine the most popular search engine comes in our mind is 'Google'.

Today i just try to find some eBook on Google but i can't find any proper site which give me what i want.

it's not because Google is showing wrong results it's because i am not asking right question.

there are some tricks to find correct eBook in correct format.  most eBooks are also available in the various eBook formats, like .pdf, .chm, .cbr, .djvu, .epub and many more depending upon your eBook reader. So its a good idea to check the eBook version of a book before buying its printed version.
Some of the best queries to find eBooks are listed below:

Intitle search operator: intitle operator can be used if you want to search only the HTML title tag of web pages. For example, the following query will find only those web pages that have the keyword money in their title tag.

intitle:money

You can use a query of this type to find eBooks on a specific subject with a specific eBook format.

intitle:index.of?file_extension book_info

Examples of using the intitle operator to find eBooks:

intitle:index.of?chm health


intitle:index.of?chm “Harry Potter”


Allinurl search operator:allinurl operator can be used to restrict the search results to only those web pages which contain the keyword in their url. For example, the query below will list only those web pages that have the word money in their url like, money.rediff.com/ or www.money.co.in/


allinurl:money


Now, as Google’s spiders crawl the web they also find eBooks. We can use allinurl operator to find eBooks like this


allinurl: pdf “Harry Potter”


This query will find all the web pages that have the word pdf and the phrase “Harry Potter” in their URL. And its highly likely that you will find the book “Harry Potter” in pdf format using this query.


Google Phrase Search and + Operator: You can use the double quoted phrase in Google search to find web pages that contain the phrase exactly as you used. For instance, the following query will show you web pages that contain the phrase “Harry Potter” exactly.“Harry Potter”


The + operator can be used to find only those pages that contain the terms prefixed with +. No synonyms, only exact match. For example, the following query will find only those pages which have the word Harry in it and the word Potter and the words similar to Harry.


Harry + Potter


Combining both the phrase search and the + operators, the following query can be used to find any eBook easily.


+(“index of”) +(“/ebooks”|”/ebook”) +(chm|pdf|zip|rar) +book_info


Some more examples of using the phrase search with + operator:


+(“index of”) +(“/ebooks”|”/ebook”) +(chm|pdf|zip|rar) +health


Hope this helps you to find any ebook you are looking for.
