Have you ever tried to search for a website, but accidentally mistyped the URL? 

It can be a frustrating experience, especially if you're not sure how to fix the typo. 

Here's a Cool Tip.  Check out Google's new URL autocorrect feature.

Google Search has a new feature that can help: it suggests corrected URLs in your search request.

Here's how to use it.

• Start typing a URL into the Google Search Address bar. 
• As you type, Google will suggest corrected URLs based on your input. 
• For example, if you type www.onee  (with one too many e's) Google may suggest www.OneCoolTip.com.

If you see a corrected URL that you think is correct, simply click on it to be taken to the website. 

Otherwise, you can continue typing the URL as usual.

That's it.

Enjoy!
