Dear R folks,


I am having problems getting good results when searching for R related
topics, that means I have not found out yet what keywords I should use
to get only relevant results. Most of the time I get also MATLAB related
things and nothing related at all. The nature of this is of course the
name of R consisting just of one letter.

What keywords do you use? Or do you just go to certain sites and do not
use any search engine at all?

Until now I am always adding the keywords »r statistical« to my search,
but it is not optimal.

I just add R as a search term. I think Google does do some personalization of search results, so if you always choose the ones that involve R, you'll eventually have those ones get higher ranking (assuming Google knows who you are).

But it's also possible that Matlab is a better platform to solve the kinds of problems you are trying to solve in R.
