Abstract

One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for indexing referenced content and/or for deep content searching. In an example, parent content (e.g., an instant message from a friend about a celebrity) may be evaluated to identify a reference (e.g., a URL) to referenced content hosted by a content source (e.g., a photo shared through a photo sharing service). The referenced content may be acquired from the content source, and may be evaluated to identify a search term that is descriptive of the referenced content (e.g., a name of the celebrity in the photo). The parent content and the referenced content may be indexed into a search index using the search term. In an example, responsive to a search query corresponding to the parent content and/or the search term, the parent content and/or the referenced content may be provided as search results.
