Was in a hurry to click on a web search link for a task I had to do and I accidentally blocked it instead from ever appearing in the web search

I was in a hurry to click on a web search link and I accidentally blocked it instead in firefox, how do I unblock it so that I can see it in the search again? Is there settings I have to go through or something, because I have tried extensions but I have blocked it from appearing in web searches not its images or anything like that.

This looks like the first result to the "‘hire bloggers" results page, but I see a : and don't see the |.

Do you mean that you've clicked the remove button on one of the slots on the about:newtab page?

See this article about the New Tab page:

You can try the Reset Firefox feature via Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information.

(To revert to the previous profile, close the new profile, start Firefox and choose the *.default profile. While the Profile Manager is open, you can also delete the newly reset profile (the one containing random numbers)).

I want you to search ‘hire bloggers’ in Google and tell me if you see a link like this appear on the first page “Scripted | hire freelance writers.’’ And it’s important if the “|” is present or not.

This will prove if I have blocked the site or not.

Nah, it doesn't appear in the first three pages. One thing to note is that sometimes pages may fall down the ranks, or it could be removed by Google due to malware etc., or it could have been removed by the site owner.

I know that I just simply wanted to know if it appeared in your search or not with the "|"
