Vim search from bottom

I use Vim when remotely connected to servers - I often need to look through the log files and a great way to search from the bottom up is:

G (Shift + g) to go to the bottom
$ to go to the end of the line
? to start a search from the bottom up
search_term - whatever you want to search for
n for next item
N for previous

For example:

G $ tag

:3,4co. copies lines 3 to 4, where . (full stop) means below your cursor

or

:3,4co14 pastes it below line 14. quite handy instead of manually yank
