I found that this functionality is provided in the web searches plugin. However, it requires us to compose the search, copy the URL from the browser's address bar and then paste it in the Web Searces plugin. Then the search string has to be replaced with {q}. This looks like a workaround, and not as elegant as the SearchBar addon of Chrome. |

There are plenty of websites that provide specialized search results. For example, Wikipedia, wiktionary, Amazon, Twitter, etc.
Let the user click inside the search bar of any website and add it directly to Flow Launcher.
In the next step, he should be able to select his keyboard shortcut for this website search.
After that, he should be able to launch that website in the default browser and pass the search string to the search bar of that website.
This functionality is provided in a Chrome addon called SearchBar.
