Wait a sec, you're saying to put this in my browsersite:http://www.name of my site
No, don't put the "http://" in there. If your site has its own domain name, just enter the domain name. If more than one name points to your site, use whichever name you're actually indexed as.
If you share the same domain with other sites, you can tack on a directory path. My site doesn't have its own domain name; it's just a subdirectory of my personal Web space on one of my college's Web servers. I can enter
site:hostname.edu/~myuserid/directoryname/
and I get all the pages in that directory, that Google knows about.
jtbell that does not work for mine. I do www.domain.com/subdir/ and I get nothing.
<blink> By golly, you're right! This is a recent development. I've done "site:" searches to list my pages many times, but it doesn't work any more. I can't remember the last time I did it. It might have been in May, before I went off on vacation. Certainly it worked sometime earlier this year.
