Default Search engine for web site - 01-16-2005 , 04:04 PM






I'm investigating search engines to add to our company web site. I only want
it to search our site and net the internet. Any suggestions. I would also
like to have something we can host ourselves.

Thanks,
Rob

I use Google for my own Web site, but I guess it looks less professional to
for a company to utilise. Have you looked into ht://Dig?

That's a FAQ (albeit one that could use a lot more TLC):

I have used both ht://Dig and atomz.com and greatly prefer the latter.
Atomz is highly configurable to one's individual look and feel, can
re-index as a chron job or manually, can be internally "weighted" to
prefer certain pages over others (that is, you can write your own
search algo, to a great extent), and its results are very speedy. It's
just a great program. I have been using it for 5 years now and would
not switch.

I have mentioned it a number of times, actually. See:

http://groups-beta.google.com/groups...=2005&safe=off

Cordially,

cat yronwode

I have never been happy with the quality of results from Ht://Dig. I was
going to say this to the OP, but held back because I can't recommend
something and then ridicule it. I will look into your suggestion, Cat.

Didn't they just change their fee structure, Cat?

How much does it cost per year? It's not obvious from the web site. Also
is it easy to add codes to theirs (atomz or google) so I can keep track
of keywords being searched on our site?

Take a look at Zoom Search Engine:
http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/

You host it yourself, no yearly charge (in fact it's free for websites
up to 50 pages, $99 once-off for Pro edition), everything is
customizable, and there's no advertising etc.

And it also keeps track of keywords searched on your site (and even
creates graphs and charts for it).
