Search Engine Script?

[Corky]

I'm very interested opening my own Search Engine and I was wondering if there is any good free search engine scripts out there.

Has anyone tried http://www.curryguide.com/solutions/free_search_engine.html that one?

Thanks,

Corey

I think that free scripts don't exist. In your case better to start wrte it yourself.

Datapark is a nice engine.

ASPseek is also another good one.

This is good. Used it before.

But personally, I don't think search engines are the way to go to be honest. Just my personal input though.

Might not be the way to go, but it's what I want to do. It'll be fun with my own search engine. Thanks for the input though

I'm going to take a look into a few of these.

I've been really looking at the "Sphider" search engine, and I might just test it out. I'll let you all know how it goes.

Wow, what type of server specs do you need for this Search Engine to work?

 

[Corky]

I'm pretty sure just any old regular hosting account. It's just like running a paid for software. Most it will do is eat up a little disk space, and once the traffic starts coming then the bandwidth will skyrocket.

You'll need well over 100 GB of bandwidth/transfer for it, but not when the site doesn't get any traffic.

Sphider doesnt eat bandwidth, its just plain text! The only thing it eats is space.. A small database has a minimum of 300mb. Though when it is crawling the web its very server intensive .. Don't use it on a shared account!
