All the hits were from pages directly linked to the page we'd searched, and, as we suspected, there was a lot of related or interesting content tucked away in odd corners that cursory checks would have missed. It did, and Search Everywhere displayed them on a Google page in a new tab, just as we'd specified. We browsed to a Web site of interest, opened Search Everywhere, and entered a term that seemed likely to produce hits. Aside from a check box to open search results in a new tab, the only other control is the program's status bar icon, which toggles the Search Everywhere toolbar open and closed. The Filter option filters out URLs that would otherwise dominate results, while Boost Exact allows hosts and paths but gives preference to exact URLs in searches. You can also select three URL extraction options: Exact, for narrow searches Paths, which omits file names and Hosts, which searches only hosts extracted from URLs, creating the broadest search engine. There's a hot-key combination, Alt + I, for this frequently used option, too.

This toolbar's first option is marked SiteSearch checking it limits searches to just the target site. Clicking this icon opened a narrow search toolbar along the bottom of our main window. Search Everywhere placed its icon in the Firefox status bar in our browser window's lower right corner. This lets you quickly zero in on content, find hidden gems of information buried deep in large sites, and browse similar sites for related interests or content. When you enter a search term, Search Everywhere queries only those linked sites. This free extension creates a Google Custom Search Engine based on pages linked to the current page. Search Everywhere doesn't actually search everywhere it only searches directly linked Web pages.
