For locking to a particular domain I had always added `site: example.com` to the query, rather than adding domain to a double quote statement. I have used double quotes to limit to a particular _phrase_ as recently as last week. I'm not privy to the improvements you mention, do you have a link? |

Incorrect:
site: domain.tld
Correct:
site:domain.tld
The - modifier to exclude a word does not have a trailing space.
Incorrect:
- site:domain.tld - query
Correct:
-site:domain.tld -query
I’m less certain about excluding a verbatim phrase, but I believe you can do as follows.
-“exclude this query string”
While this space rule still applies, so don’t insert a space, although this needs more testing by me to know for sure that this exclusion works properly.
- “this is not correct syntax imo”
