Find, when it means "search for"

In "I went online to find tapas recipes" shouldn't the verb for find be chercher rather than (or at least as well as)  trouver?

I don't see the problem with looking online to find something so it's a straight translation and 'trouver' is correct.

Bonne Continuation!
