Select your search terms carefully
You are usually searching on the creator’s/publisher’s file name, title, tags, description. For images possibly the text immediately surrounding the image
Some databases have minimal descriptions of the content if any
You won’t be using Google all of the time – most tools will not automatically search for variations and synonyms of a term
Also, not all media may be available in your location. You may have to find another version of the tool or a country version e.g. BBC content
