7.  Use a variety of search terms › Hitler › Hitler+World War II › Hitler+Holocaust › Hitler+family › Hitler+biography

8.  Use quotation marks. Using quotes around a set of words will direct Google to search for those exact words, in that exact order  Add a minus sign. Adding a minus sign immediately before any word indicates that you don't want those words to appear in your search results. For example, "Saturn -cars" will give you information about the planet, not the automobile.  Look beyond the first page of results - most of them on the first page are sponsored =$$.  Evaluate the website - appearance, authority, quality of information.
