Regarding Brave Search Engine Operators (“SEO”):
In my experience, the plus and particularly the minus symbols usage have NOT been reliable:
+: Returns web pages containing the specified term either in the title or the body of the page. Example: to find information about FreeSync GPU technology, making sure the keyword “FreeSync” appears in the result, type “gpu +freesync”.-: Returns web pages not containing the specified term neither in the title nor the body of the page. Example: to search web pages containing the keyword “office” while avoiding results with the term “Microsoft”, type “office -microsoft”.
Example, enter into the Brave Search Field (not in the URL address field) at https://search.brave.com:
penny
and search. Notice the results. Next, enter in the search field:
penny NOT site:wikipedia AND NOT site:usmint.gov
Notice the results and the difference between the two results sets.
