Google Search, Right on Your Blog…

Sometimes, especially with blogs, you want to give your readers
the opportunity to search your site with a “Google style” search. Well, in the interest of sharing, Google will allow you to configure a search widget that will search only your site. Go to Google.com>more>even more then custom search. It will allow you to configure a search bar however you would like.
Keep in mind that studies have shown that people prefer to browse your site for information and that if they did find you via a search engine search, they’ll want to see what they were looking for within about 2-3 clicks. If they are using the custom search, you may need better navigation.
Happy Holidays!
