Search Engine

[EvianWater]

How do you install a search engine in your site so visitors can search for past archives of articles within the site? For example, let's say someone wanted to read an article about football. That person will type the word football into the search engine and the words that have football in my site will show up. How do I do this?

First of all, you will need to put a META tag in for each document in your website with a description/keywords for that one page. That should be the hardest part of the whole setup. Second, you can either go to cgi.resourceindex.com (http://cgi.resourceindex.com), php.resourceindex.com (http://php.resourceindex.com), or any other cgi script database. Search their site for a search engine script, and install it. If you're looking for an alternate to setting up a script, check out Atomz (http://www.atomz.com/) for a plug and play search engine for your site. They are a reliable, high quality, and very customizable service.
