All About Google Dorks

 Hello and welcome again to osintlearners blog, today i'm very excited while writing this blog because today we are gonna talk about a most useful and powerfull technique in the field of Cyber Security and OSINT and believe me after knowing this technique you won't be able to live without using this technique in your investigation, so let's move forward and start the blog.

Google dorking is a technique used by many IT professionals, hackers, osint investigators and also used by many pro internet users to filter out the results from google. Basically google has some pre-defined keywords which anybody can use to get the desired results.

Now we all know that there are three WEB's on internet Surface Web, Dark Web and Deep Web and we all know that many illegal things found on the Dark and Deep web but there is a fact about surface web is that there are tons of hidden information are also available on surface web which we can't see on our result section and that's where the dorks comes in hand to find those hidden information, such as usernames, passwords, open directories, personal images and sometimes leaked databases and that's why you should know about this technique.


Practicle Example

intitle: This dork will search only for those site's which contains the title you specify.


intext: This dork will look for a specific word in webpages and then give you the result.

inurl: This dork is used to find websites with a particular web extensions for example "php?id="


filetype: You can find anything with this dork for example if you want pdf then just enter the pdf name in double quotes then just add filetype:pdf.

In this blog i've covered a very basic dork technique, but in my next blog i will share some more dork or you can search for more dorks if you want. That's it for todays blog will see you in my next blog till then practice these dorks and try to find more by yourself.
