7 Internet Tips and Tricks to Boost Your Online Productivity

April 23 2013

We recently published an article highlighting 10 keyboard shortcuts that make life easier. That post was so popular that today we're letting you in on some shortcuts for surfing the World Wide Web:

mcw web shortcuts1. You don't need the http:// portion of a web page

When typing an Internet address, you do not need to type http:// or even www. in the address. For example, if you wanted to visit My Computer Works, you could just type mycomputerworks.com and press enter.

2. Quickly move between the fields of a web page

If you're filling out an online form, e-mail, or other text field, you can quickly move between each of the fields by pressing the Tab key or Shift + Tab to move back a field. For example, if you're filling out your name and the next field is your e-mail address, you can press the Tab key to switch to the e-mail field.

3. Use Internet search engines to their full potential

Make sure to get the most out of every search result. If you're not finding what you want, try surrounding the text in quotes. For example, if you were searching for 'computer help' this actually searches for pages that contain both computer and help, and not necessarily pages that have computer and help next to each other.
