I have shared quite a few methods to tweak Google search results page: we know already how to remove redirects from Google SERPs, or how to add a sidebar to Google search which allows to see more relevant information.

And here’s another way to make even more of Google SERPs: see more Google results at a glance as well as preview target pages. Google Monkey is one of possible ways to do that. That’s a Greasemoneky script that has quite a few cool features worth checking out.

The script allows you to add the following features to Google SERPs:

  • Sort search results into columns (up to 4 columns);
  • Number results;
  • Open results in a new tab;
  • For each result show the domain favicon or thumbnail (or both).

Additionally you can also:

  • Remove "Related searches" and "AdWords" results;
  • Auto load more results;
  • Hide the Google web search dialogs (if you use the Google toolbar instead);
  • Set the background color;

Also, you can customize all settings via the handy dialog (accessed via the link in the top right corner of the SERPs):

    Thanks Ann for sharing the article. It rarely happens but there is a spelling mistake in the second paragraph, which says – “Greasemoneky ”

    If I am not mistaken it should be – “Greasemonkey “. Anyways again a great find.

    Thanks!
