Add a Search Engine to Your Site

A search facility on your site is a useful feature where you have more than a few pages.

They can be free for non commercial use and adding the code to your page is easy. Usually they are supported by  advertising as is this one here. I like this one as the advertising is discreet. See if you can find it!

Another useful features is statistics. As I write this first time there are absolutely no statistics for this site -- I have done a few test searches only. These tell you what search terms your visitors are using, and should allow you to over time to improve your site to cater for their tastes.

The search index lives off site, on the site of the SiteEngine provider, When your visitor fills out the seach form, your page builds the query and sends it to to that Site. The search results come back from there.
Atomz Code
Below is the code for this site. If you want to experiment, trial it here or copy it to one of your pages as a code object. However, the code links to an index that has already been prepared for this site -- so that will not give the search results that you want for your site. See Atomz.com for your own index.
Freefind
This is another free Search Engine that I have tested.  See http://www.freefind.com/.
Initial setup is easier, but there is a lot more advertising in the search results. Test it here:

powered by FreeFind
FreeFind Code
Again you can experiment with this -- either trial it here, or copy this code as a code object to your SiteSpinner workpage.
