What will this search produce?

• A. All search engines that link to .net domains
• B. All sites that link to ghttech.net
• C. All sites that ghttech.net links to
• D. All sites that contain the code: link:www.ghttech.net

Answer: (B)

This tests understanding of a search operator used to find pages that link to a given domain. The syntax link:www.ghttech.net directs the search engine to return all pages that contain a hyperlink pointing to ghttech.net, i.e., all sites that link to ghttech.net. That is why the correct choice is the one describing all sites that link to ghttech.net. The other options describe different behaviors: looking for search engines linking to .net domains, listing outbound links from ghttech.net, or searching for a literal code phrase rather than using the link operator.
