hey Jackie,

I like your example!
Whilst it used to be very true that quotes were essential to good google searches, now they aren't as necessary as they once were, google having got so good at interpreting what we're looking for. but if you want a specific term or phrase, and no other, then use them around it.

Hey Vincent
Adding to what John L said I was also taught the quote thing. But I also use plus and minus signs when searching example, if your looking for me on the web you'd put my name in quotes "jackie mcbrearty"+sligo-donegal I have put plus Sligo and dash Donegal. This will bring up things about me in Sligo as there is loads of Jackie McBrearty's in Donegal that arn't me.

hope that helps
yours
Jackie
