add a few words to your search using relevant expressions such as 'ELT' (English Language Teaching). Putting 'Present Perfect ELT' into the search box will reduce responses from many thousands to only a few thousand.
Use advanced search tool
most search tools have a section which allow you further to refine your search. Don't be afraid to use these, they are not difficult to learn and are very useful. For example if you wanted to look only for information that came from academic sites in the United Kingdom you can select in the advanced search area to look for sites with the domain '.ac.uk'. Doing this reduces the number of responses to hundreds.
Use Boolean operators (Boolean logic)
These are characters such as '-' (minus) and '+' (plus) which are used to exclude or add certain words in the search. For example, you do a search for 'English teaching', and in the results there are many job opportunities, but you are looking for classroom materials. So, using Boolean operators you could write "English teaching -jobs -opportunities +materials". The search tool will then look for sites which have materials but do not have information on jobs or opportunities. They are a very effective way of narrowing your search to exactly what you are looking for.
Validate your searches
Once you have narrowed down your search results, it is also important to establish how reliable the information is. There are many sites on the web and not all of them will have accurate information. There are some things you can look out for to help you judge a site.
The domain
for example '.edu' or '.ac' indicates that it comes from a university or academic institution.
The producer
Try to find which company or individual is producing the site - Is it supported by an organisation or company that has a good reputation?
The author
Who has written the information? What are their qualifications for writing such a piece? Is this information given?
