How we're improving search results when you use quotes?
Now we're making quoted searches better. The snippets we display for search results (meaning the text you see describing web content) will be formed around where a quoted word or phrase occurs in a web document. That means you can more easily identify where to find them after you click the link and visit the content.
Why is it best to put searches in databases in quotation marks?
Phrases. Most databases allow you to specify that adjacent words be searched as phrases. Using quotation marks around search words is a common way to do phrase searching. By using quotation marks, you are telling the database to only bring back results with the words you typed in exactly the order you typed them.
