How to create a search for your web page or blog

Today, many search engines allow you to use their index to create a customized search for your website. For example, add a free custom search bar powered by Google to your web page that only displays results from your site.

We recommend this solution because it requires little coding, works with any platform, is fast, and has many of the same Google search features.

To create a Google-powered search, visit Google's Programmable Search Engine and enter your site settings. Once created, you'll be given code to add to your pages, allowing your visitors to search your pages. In addition to search, this service also has statistics, including popular searches, which help show what's popular or should be added to your site.
