You can also use Google's advanced search options to perform a search for a word or phrase on all of the pages of a specific site. You can use this in conjunction with the Find tool to locate a word anywhere on the internet.

Visit https://www.google.com/ in your browser. You can use Google to perform searches of all of the pages on a website. This can help you find matching words on large or complex websites.

For example, if you wanted to search for a word on wikiHow, you would type "site: www.wikihow.com" in the Google search bar. This tells Google to only search on the website you want to search. ^{[1]

Enter the word or phrase you want to search for after the site address. You can enter a single word or you can enter phrases. ^{[2]

- For example, to search wikiHow for any page that has the word "banana", you would type site:wikihow.com banana . To search wikiHow for any page that has the phrase "eat a banana", you would type site:wikihow.com eat a banana .

Google will return any pages that match your search, but it won't point you to the matching text once you open the page. You'll need to use the Find tool to jump to where the word occurs on the page. ^{[3]
