I did not know that but have jotted it down - do you have to include all the https:// or just the website name i.e., thehousekat.com?

Good tip, search operators are very handy.

You can even go further, for example:

site:activerain.com inurl:membersupport
(searches pages on activerain.com with membersupport in the URL)

site:activerain.com inurl:"covered bridges"
(searches pages on activerain.com with "covered bridges" in the URL)

site:activerain.com intitle:"patio homes"
(searches pages on activerain.com with "patio homes" in the page title)

Using quotes, forces Google to search for two or more words together.

I did not. I knew you could put words in quotes to only get results that contain all the words you want.

 I don't use Google.  Their SERPs are rigged, to the Left.  

Will this work with Brave Search?  Or Startpage?  Or Yandex?  Or even Bing?  TIA
