Google Review: "
Field Searching:Google offers several field searches connected with entering URLs. In the December 2000 revision of its advanced search form, it add several title and URL field searches.
Note that most field searching cannot be combined with other query words. In others words, a search entered such as uniqueword link:name.com will only be processed as if only the field search was present as in link:name.com. The uniqueword is ignored. One exception is the site: limit which cannot be used alone and must have another search term. The more recently added intitle: and inurl: fields can be combined with other search terms.
FieldExplanation
intitle:Finds pages that have the term(s) in the HTML title element. Can be combined with other search terms. intitle:search engines. This should find 'search' in the title and 'engines' anywhere in the page.
