Less is more.

Start with a basic idea, not more than 1 or 2 words and see what types of results you get.

Depending on the quality and relevance of your results, you may want to modify your search terms by swapping out terms with synonyms or adding more terms for more specificity.

Finally, be aware of "filters" - tools that let you screen out different categories of item or favor a category you want to focus on.
