Search.gov

Search.gov makes it easier for people to find the information they need from federal websites. As the search engine used by more than 2,000 federal websites, Search.gov supports more than 245 million searches a year.

Search.gov shares its history with USA.gov, beginning when internet entrepreneur Eric Brewer donated a powerful search engine to the government. In 2000, USA.gov, at the time named FirstGov.gov, debuted. It featured a search box that allowed users to search across government websites. In 2010, Search.gov expanded to serve agencies throughout the U.S. government.
