    When I need to find a particular article I wrote, I spend a ton of time looking through all of my articles trying to locate the particular article. Is there a way to run a keyword search to find the article right away?

      Hi, Kenna. If you have an idea what the title might be, hit control+f to search for terms. Also, if you know what niche site (or lack thereof) it's on, you can use filters to help narrow it down.

      If you use Chrome you can go to the three little dots in the upper right hand corner of your screen, click on them, scroll down to "find", click on it and a box will show up.  In it type a word from the title you are searching for, and every title that has even a portion of that word in it will be highlighted.  Easy Peasy.

        That is Easy Peasy. I wonder what other easy peasy stuff I need to know about my Chrome.

            No worries. It's more than I knew.

    Jeremy, This is very helpful. Thanks. I saw someone do the control+f once when I was looking over his should while he was on the computer. It happened so fast that I didn't catch how he did it. Now, I know. : )

    I am not sure if having many articles makes the stats page have pages? If it does, it may not be the best option to use ctrl+f (if it's a single page, ctrl+f all the way). In case of multiple pages just go to google type in the following:

    site:nichesite.com title words that you can recall

      Brandon, this is helpful, thank you. I am thinking of making a little HP Notebook on tips that help me work faster and better.

      I have almost 300 and it is still on the same page so I do not think they use separate pages like the profile page. I still use the ctrl+f on mine.

          You might ask Patty or Alexandry if there might be more than one page. (They both have more than 1000 articles.) If that was the case, Brandon“s second method would be the best.

            Okay. Let's see if they pipe in. smile

    And I guess this is obvious but you can also click on the top of a column to get the page to sort based on the column.  So click the title column and you get all your articles listed in alphabetical order forwards or backwards.  I use that one a lot and ordering them by publication date when I'm looking for one of my more recent articles.  The other tips seem really helpful though.
