How to Googlewhack

Googlewhacking is a game, played on Google, where you try to search something that only gets 1 hit, 'the perfect 1'.

Steps

  1. First of all, some rules.
    • You can only use two words.
    • No proper nouns.
    • They have to be real words.
    • Proper spellings only (you might want to check your phrase on Word or something before whacking)
    • The words must appear in Google's dictionary (if they do, then they'll be underlined in blue at the top of the page after you search)
    • No putting quotes around the words.
    • Google gives you a little blurb of the page that the words came up on. If it's just a list of words that the two happen to appear in, then that page doesn't count.
  2. Go to Google. (obviously)
  3. Enter a two word phrase of your choice.
  4. See how many hits come up!
  5. If you get more than, say, 100, then modify your phrase or start with new words!
