Hi @OmarioHasan,

Thanks for raising this, let me check. I was able to reproduce it as well. Also try to use standard template for raising issues. If you can update this issue would be better.

Hi @gkalpak, @kapunahelewong ,

After looking into the issue this is what i found

https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Av8.angular.io+component (existing doesn't work)

https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3A%20v8.angular.io+component (added a space after site and this works)

I also referred to http://www.googleguide.com/advanced_operators_reference.html#site where it says we should not use space between site:domain. Can you guide me to official doc if possible.

AFAICT, having a space after site: just voids its effect (i.e. searches for the three terms: site, v8.angular.io and component). The reason the query does not show any results is that we do not allow the *.angular.io domains (such as v8.angular.io or next.angular.io) to be indexed by search engines (only angular.io).

We have to discuss this with the team and decide what is the most appropriate solution.
Thx for bringing it up, @OmarioHasan (and @santoshyadav198613 for doing the initial investigation) 👍

Some possible solutions off the top of my head (non-exhaustive list):

• Change CLI to always use site:angular.io (regardless of the version).
  Cons: Might show info that does not correspond with the user's Angular version.

• Change CLI to use https://v8.angular.io/?search=<some-term>
  Cons: Might show less matches than a Google search.
