To look for certain words on a page, the quickest and most common method is to use keyboard shortcuts:
- On Windows or Chromebook: Press Ctrl + F.
- On Mac: Press Command (⌘) + F.
This opens a search box near the top or bottom of the browser window where you can type the word or phrase you're looking for. The browser will then highlight all instances of the searched word on the page. You can usually navigate through the occurrences using arrows in the search box. For mobile devices:
- On iPhone or iPad, tap the Share button and select "Find on Page."
- On Android phones, tap the three-dot menu and select "Find in Page."
Additional methods include using browser menus to find a "Find" or "Find on
Page" option, using Google Search operators like site: to find words on a
specific website, or using browser extensions for more advanced searches.
These techniques work across most browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox,
and Edge.
