Elaine,
The tips were designed for use on the site http://fmpbsol.1911census.co.uk
That site was the first to put the 1911 England and Wales census on the net, well before the other sites that you mention.
In my humble opinion it still offers the best search facility amongst those sites who now offer access to that census. Although I now have access to the census via FMP and Ancestry I still tend to use the1911census.co.uk site when I am struggling to find someone on the 1911 census.

Things can change a bit if you have access to Ancestry's 1911 summary books. Here's a look up for McCann in Wigan - there're several hits, but mine is at his 1901 addy, so no worries:
1911 England Census Summary Books about Mr McCann Name: Mr McCann Number of Males: 2 Number of Females: 5 **Household schedule number: 213 Street Address: 7 Westmoreland Street Civil parish: Wigan Ecclesiastical parish: Wigan St Catharine County/Island: Lancashire Country: England Registration district: Wigan ****Registration District Number: 3 Sub-registration district: Wigan **Sub-Registration District Number: 3 **ED, institution, or vessel: 7 Neighbors: View others on page Piece: 1345
NB Ancestry always(?) mistranscribe the RD # - for Wigan it should be 458.
You can do a free look up at http://www.1911census.co.uk/ Take the full person search, then take advanced fields. Now I just look up the census ref: rd458 sd3 ed7 sn213
7 results found. You searched for: Census Reference RD458 SD3 ED7 SN213
Schedule type Last names First names Sex Birth year Age in 1911 District / other County / other Transcript Original page HOUSEHOLD HACKETT ALICE F 1876 35 Wigan Lancashire HOUSEHOLD HACKETT ANNIE F 1902 9 Wigan Lancashire HOUSEHOLD HACKETT ELLEN F 1899 12 Wigan Lancashire HOUSEHOLD HACKETT ROBERT M 1904 7 Wigan Lancashire HOUSEHOLD MCCANN MARGARET F 1856 55 Wigan Lancashire HOUSEHOLD MCCANN MARGARET F 1887 24 Wigan Lancashire HOUSEHOLD MCCANN THOMAS M 1853 58 Wigan Lancashire
So now the only problem is Wigan's RD #. A catalog search for Wigan 1911-1911 code=rg at: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/catalogue/Default.asp?j=1 gets 47 hits - typical is:
