Unlike general Internet meta search engines NewsTrawler limits searches to newspaper, magazine and news service sites. Searches can be narrowed by country, category or specific titles. As with other meta search engines it is searching across a variety of sites that support a range of different search options. It is up to the person conducting the search to try and use a range of terms, and to utilise NetTrawler's options for narrowing searches. Other features Users can freely register to NewsTrawler.
Registered users can customise the home page to reflect particular news sources.
