To find certain words on a page, the simplest and most common method is to use the "Find" function available in most web browsers and software programs:

  • On a Windows or Linux computer, press Ctrl + F on the keyboard.
  • On a Mac computer, press Command + F.
  • A search bar will appear, usually at the top or bottom of the window.
  • Type the word or phrase you want to locate on the page.
  • The browser or program will highlight all instances of that word or phrase.
  • You can navigate between matches using arrow keys near the search bar.

This method works in most web browsers (like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) and many other applications, making it the fastest way to locate specific words on a webpage or document. On mobile devices, many browsers have a "Find on Page" option in their menu, where you can enter the word to search and see it highlighted on the page. Additionally, for searching words across an entire website or multiple pages, you can use Google by typing site:website.com keyword in the search bar to locate pages containing the word. These approaches cover most needs for finding words on pages efficiently.
