Question

Explain the steps you take to complete an Internet search. Do you use a particular search engine every time or do you alternate? Which search engine do you prefer? Why? What are the advantages and disadvantages of using a search engine versus a metasearch engine? Discuss how you determine if a source is credible based on the author/author credentials, date of publication, domain, bias, and works cited/links available.

Answer 1

While proceeding with an internet search I find google to be the best source considering its high accuracy. When asking your question keep it minimal yet descriptive. After having found a few sources cross reference them with each other and throw out any sources that may hold false information. After having narrowed them down look to see how recent they are because since their publication new information may have been brought to light. Look to see if they have links to where they got their information. All in all just be diligent.
