  • Adding a Search engine to my page

    Hi Y'all,
    I am working on an e-commerce using BlueVoda and would like the customers to be able to search the site. Is this compatible with BlueVoda? If so, how do I go about doing this? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Re: Adding a Search engine to my page

    I am not sure what you mean by your question - do you want the search engines to find you? Or do you mean you want to put a search on your site?

    An easy way to do the latter is to sign up with google adsense, and use their search feature (at the top of the pages of my webmaster productions site below for example). This enables visitors to search for something on your site, or on the www. The benefit is that google pay you for some searches to other sites.

      I use a search tool called Sphider on my site. For me its the best free search tool around, very reliable and quite secure. You need to know a bit about PHP though, if you dont it'll be quite difficult to setup.

        Hi AmaDee

        Insert this code into an html, type your domain where it says www.yourdomain.com and place it anywhere on your page.

        Hopefully this is what you're after.

                I posted a response to this thread and it's gone?

                Doesn't matter if you found what you want - but there are lots of options out there :) - if you are still looking - one I use is free find - you'll find it on 2 of the sites in my siggy.

                  You've been very helpful. I decided to go with FreeFind and it's working great.
