[Firefox] Search different sites right from your address bar.
#1
NOTE: This tutorial is for Firefox.

Hello.

So, this is probably well known, but if not, it'll help you greatly. In short, this tutorial is over being able to assign a letter (or letters) to search a website, so you can type like "[letter(s)] [search term]" from your address bar and it'll search that site. So, if I assigned 'sf' to supportforums, I could type, for example, "SF firefox help" to search SF for "firefox help". Let's get started.

1. Go to the site you want to do this with. I'll use Youtube as an example.

2. Right-click the search bar (where you enter the text to search) and click 'Add a keyword for this search':

3. Enter whatever you want to call it under "Name" (it can be anything; I used Youtube as an example). Then, enter what you want the keyword to be under 'keyword'. I personally use 'y'.:

4. You're done! To test it, type, for example, "y Tim Mcgraw" in your address bar. You should arrive here.

Enjoy.
