FirstStop WebSearch is designed to increase Web searchers’ productivity by allowing them to do the things they cannot do with standard search engines.

Search multiple engines all at once.

Save and export search results to office and web applications.

Get all search results instead of only 10 per page.

Automatically conduct multiple searches.

Working with multiple search engines:

• You can search multiple engines all at once or just any single engine at a time.
• You can choose which engines will be used for each search.
• Almost any web search engine can be added to FirstStop WebSearch. (How to add search sources?)
• RSS search feeds can be easily added to FirstStop.
• Utilize five modes of search: simple, all words, any words, phrase, custom. *
• Using Query Builder, you don’t need to study each engine’s syntax to conduct advanced searches. FirstStop will ensure that each search engine will receive your search in a correct format.*
• Duplicate links in search results from different engines are automatically removed.

Retrieving large volumes of search results:

• FirstStop can automatically retrieve as many search results as you need: *
  • up to 1,000 results per search source (is 1,000 enough?)
  • up to 10,000 results per search (request a custom version if you need more)
• Batch searching. Automatically retrieve and save search results from multiple searches.*

Working with search results:

• Permanent search results are stored in your history of searches.
• You can merge search results from two searches into a single results list. *
• You can repeat searches from the history and see if new search results are available. *
• You can verify links in the search results and remove unreachable documents.
• You can export searches to various office and web applications:
  • XML
  • HTML
  • RSS
  • CSV
  • Plain Text
  • MS Word *
  • MS Excel *
  • MS Access (on request) *
  • other formats (request a custom version)

Making large volumes of search results manageable:

• Search keywords are highlighted.
• The Discovery Tree breaks down search results by search sources, domains, countries, and words and phrases most frequently found in your search results.
• You can sort results by clicking on the column headers.
• You can filter results by inclusion or exclusion of a word/phrase in the specified column.
• You can delete the results you don’t need and mark the results you want to take a closer look at later.
