Some search boxes. [TopLink]


IndySearch. Choose sites from dropdown menu. Click Google button. Then enter additional search terms after the inurl: operator and its URL. You can put quotes around phrases. Search again.
On the Google results page you can click the "News" tab. This will pull up results from thousands of news sites indexed daily by Google News. If the "site:" term was used, you can delete it because it does not work at Google News. If you still want a site-specific search you can try substituting the Google operator "inurl:" for "site:" and then search Google News again. Remember that Google News does not index all news sites. Another way to get specific site searches using Google News is to use "source:" terms: source:indymedia_italia or source:the_narco_news_bulletin or source:mother_jones or source:guardian or source:common_dreams or source:venezuela_electronic_news or source:pacifica_radio . A less consistently-implemented method is to use search term(s) and the full, correct name of the news site. Such as: Narco News Bulletin, Mother Jones, Guardian, Common Dreams, or Venezuela Electronic News. To search sites using standard Google (not Google News) searches one can use either site: or inurl: followed directly (no space) by the site's homepage URL. You can use inurl: more than once in a single search. For example; one can search for dates in URLs. For Indymedia searches add the search term inurl:2003/10 to possibly find October 2003 articles. The IndySearch form above uses inurl: to search various Indymedia sites via regular Google searches. Note the pattern and adapt it to search almost any Indymedia city site. Due to technical reasons one has to add the search terms after clicking the Google button in the IndySearch form above.
Another option to search specific news sites via Google is to use this specialized MAP/DrugNews search form: http://www.mapinc.org/media.htm - Choose from any of hundreds of news sites in that Google search form. The Google search form is at the bottom of the page there. Choose the area of the world, or the beginning letter of the publication, etc., at the top of the web page. Then use the dropdown menu in the search form to select the specific news site. Enter search terms. Click the search button.

San Francisco Indymedia. The web. Enter search term(s). You can put quotes around phrases. Click Google button.

Google indexes many more pages of the San Francisco Indymedia site using indybay.org URLs compared to sf.indymedia.org URLs.

Verify this by comparing the number of results found by clicking the 2 search shortcut links below:
http://google.com/search?q=inurl:indybay.org and
http://google.com/search?q=inurl:sf.indymedia.org

Two ways that Google search forms can be set up to search San Francisco Indymedia sites are to use site:indybay.org or inurl:indybay.org - Click the search shortcut URLs below to see the results either way.
http://google.com/search?q=site:indybay.org and
http://google.com/search?q=inurl:indybay.org

Query inputs in the HTML of the search forms on this page have been minimized. This means the resulting shortcut URLs will have less characters, and will be easier to pass on, especially in email where URLs that wrap to two lines often don't work right.

Search Google News or the web.
Enter search term(s). You can put quotes around phrases. Then click one of the Google search buttons.

Google News does not index too many Indymedia sites. Some Germany Indymedia articles continue to be indexed by Google News. Google News was indexing Italy Indymedia, though not anything recently. Here is the search shortcut:
http://google.com/news?q=source:indymedia_italia

Note that a Google web search will not use the source term. Only Google News uses the source term. Click both buttons in the searchbox above to see. Google News is in beta testing and the "search news" button may sometimes search the web instead. If that happens just click the "news" tab or button on the results page. 

You can substitute other source terms. Just copy and paste from the examples below:
source:the_narco_news_bulletin
source:mother_jones
source:guardian
source:common_dreams
source:venezuela_electronic_news
source:pacifica_radio

"source" method for Google News searches of specific sites:
http://google.com/news?q=source:indymedia_italia
http://google.com/news?q=source:the_narco_news_bulletin
http://google.com/news?q=source:mother_jones
http://google.com/news?q=source:guardian
http://google.com/news?q=source:common_dreams
http://google.com/news?q=source:venezuela_electronic_news
http://google.com/news?q=source:pacifica_radio

Or use the correct (according to Google News) name of the news site. Click the links below. Note that until you add search term(s) and click "Search News" again there will not be a link to search that site exclusively. The search term(s) can be added before or after the name of the news site. At the top of the search results there will be a link in the form of "Search news source..." This method does not work consistently. Google News says it is still in beta testing. The "source" method above works more consistently.

To get Google (or other search engines) to index all the pages on a website every month or two the Google indexing spiders need easy access to all of the site's pages. So somewhere on the website there should be a quick links page or sitemap page. Or a sitemap or quick links spread out on multiple pages if necessary. With all sitemap or quick links pages linked to each other. With pages organized by the month or week in which articles were added. Or some other easy browsing or spidering method. The less nesting of pages, the better. The links should be text links that are openly visible and easy to access by the indexing robots and spiders. The Google robots seem to ignore links in dropdown lists, hidden or invisible links, invisible image links, some other image links, etc..
