Search Box:
Start a search by typing descriptive words or phrases into the search box and either click the "Search" button or press the Enter key on your keyboard.
Advanced Search:
Advanced Web Search helps you structure your search to find sites that match very specific criteria. You can use it to limit your search to certain phrases, a specific language, or find sites that link to a URL. Unlike Search Preferences which can be saved, the advanced search options you choose apply only to the current search. More about Advanced Search...

Preferences are saved settings that apply every time you use Movie Crawler to search the Web. More about Search Preferences...

Sponsor Results:
Sponsor Results are sites that pay for placement in search results on keywords that are relevant to their business. These listings appear on Movie Crawler Search results pages and other sections of Movie Crawler. You see Sponsor Results when they're relevant to the specific search terms you used. For example, if you search for "digital cameras," you see Sponsor Results for web sites that provide information about or sell digital cameras. The Movie Crawler Search results pages separate Sponsor Results from other results so you can tell them apart. For more information please refer to the Sponsor Results FAQs. To participate in this program, please see Sponsored Search.

Also, if your search included a Movie Crawler Shortcut keyword, such as map, weather, news, or define, the specific information you're looking for appear in this section.

Web Results:
Web Results are the most relevant web pages found by Movie Crawler Search found in response to your search terms. Web Results are generated from the billions of web pages discovered, crawled, and indexed by Movie Crawler Search. More than 99% of web pages in the Movie Crawler Search index are included for free through the web crawl process.
Web Results might also include links to sites that participate in the Content Acquisition Program (CAP). CAP enables content providers to submit web content directly to Movie Crawler for review and inclusion in the Movie Crawler Search index; content providers that participate in CAP through the Search Submit program pay for these services. Participation in CAP does not guarantee placement or ranking in search results.
Within web results you might also see:
- PDF: Result is a Portable Document Format (PDF).
- View as HTML: When a web result links to a PDF file, we give you the option to view the information as a web page instead of downloading the file. Your search terms are highlighted on the cached page to help you find the relevant content.
-
RSS/View as XML: Now web results include sites that support "RSS" or "Really Simple Syndication", a method used to access web content. You can use RSS with My Movie Crawler to incorporate, gather, read, or quickly scan frequently updated headlines.
Specific search results that have an associated RSS/XML feed returns two additional links: - View as XML: A direct link to an XML feed for a specific RSS result. XML is a document markup language used to describe different types of information on the Web including RSS feeds. Note: Clicking this link displays raw XML markup within the browser. Don't be alarmed—you see a page of source that looks like HTML, designed to be read by software rather than by people.
- Add to My Movie Crawler Beta: Automatically add the specific RSS feed to an RSS Headlines module on your My Movie Crawler start page. More about RSS Headlines Module...
- URL: The web address of the result.
- Cached: A link to a copy of the page saved by the search engine, in case the site is unavailable. Your search terms are highlighted on the cached page to help you find the relevant content.
- More pages from this site: Search for the same term on pages within this particular site.
