Facebook Searches Using Google

Have you ever tried to find a group or page on Facebook but haven't succeeded? Don't worry, you're not alone! You're one of the many to discover the limitations of the Facebook search engine.


Rather than get discouraged and give up, you can simply try searching the group or page on google.com, but by adding the keywords "site:facebook.com", you can limit your search results to that site. So, for example, a search for the Facebook page or group of Tyndale St-Georges Community Centre would look like: "Tyndale St-Georges site:facebook.com".

You can also use this method to search on sites other than Facebook by substituting the domain name "facebook.com" with whichever site you'd like to visit. For example, to find the Wikipedia article about pumpkins, try "pumpkin site:wikipedia.org".


To find our project's Facebook group, you can click on the link under Contact in this blog, or simply click here.
