How to Exclude a Word from a Google Search?

Use a minus sign before the word: `search term -excludedword`

Put the excluded word in quotes if it is a phrase: `search term -“excluded phrase”`

Exclude multiple words by adding each one with a minus sign: `search term -word1 -word2`

Combine exclusions with other operators if needed: `site:example.com search term -word`

Avoid spaces between the minus sign and the excluded word: `-word` not `- word`
