SearchTempest is an aggregator of online classified advertisements that allows users to search results from craigslist, eBay, and Amazon.com together.[1]

Created in 2006 by Nathan Stretch, SearchTempest was originally named Craig's Helper and was made to help users search more than one craigslist city at once.[2] Eventually, Craig's Helper's name was changed to SearchTempest and began to search eBay and Amazon as well.

In 2007 the offshoot AutoTempest, originally called Hank´s Helper, was created as a specialized aggregator of online classified advertisements for cars.[3]

In 2010, time saving blog LifeHacker recommended SearchTempest to their readers.[4]
