    Hello, so, does it matter where I type this? Before or after the words I’m searching for?

      You can look up URL parameter structure online, but the short version is that you use ? if it is the first parameter (no other ? in the URL), or & otherwise.

      So you can use:

      • https://google.com/?udm=14 and then search for something.
      • https://google.com/?q=question&udm=14 by adding it with an & after an existing search

      I recommend adding a custom search engine to your browser with this baked in. It’s incredibly easy in Firefox and it’s derivatives, with a ton of tutorials online.
