I can't find the matching search result or no search result at all. What can I do?

How accurate or appropriate search results are depends mainly on the search query. Therefore, if necessary, improve your search query in the GMX Search.

You have an approximate search result in mind, but you do not get the matching search result or no search result at all. You can eliminate some reasons for this yourself by checking the search query for grammatical correctness or by making it more precise.

Spelling error in search query

When typing the search query, spelling errors can occur.

Check search query for grammatical correctness

  • Check the spelling of your search query for misspellings or incorrect word order.

Inaccurate search query

You have formulated your search query too complicated or too imprecise.

Simplify or specify search query

Try to simplify your search query, try other search terms or specify them further.

Note the following recommendations:
  • Make sure to use precise search terms and make your search more specific by adding additional terms or using boolean operators (e.g. AND, OR, and NOT).
  • As you enter your query in the search bar, GMX will suggest other matching terms. The suggestions are based on searches by other users and can help you find the best matching results.
  • Make sure to keep your search requests short and only use relevant terms.
  • Capitalization (upper and lower case) of the search terms has no effect on the search results.
  • Press Enter or click on the magnifying glass icon to start your search. After that, matching websites will be listed in the search results.
