But wait, i search for: goat - not found still to my greatest dissapointments nairaland - not found php - found (but wrong - the resulting page when opened does not contain anything like php) php boys - not found (this is so wrong, if you cannot find php boys, you should search for php instead) at this point, i abandon the search once again. but this version is slightly better than the previous. |

Op why don't you use Google search engine api, for keywords that aren't found. You will also be updating your database with the result returned from Google 1 Like |

dhtml18:Nairaland wasn't added that's why no result showed. Soon eneough you get latest result. Still working on fine tuning the result. |

Djade007:How do you mean? |
Re: A New Search Engine by Djade007: 5:11pm On May 24, 2016 |
guru01:For example, a keyword was searched, you check your database to see if there was any result. If there is no result or if the number result is low, you can make an api request to Google search engine. You populate your database with the returned data from the api and give the user the result. Next time the same keyword was searched you would already have some content in your database. |

^^^that is a cache system, yeah, that was how i was able to break the limit of some of those google apis that say. . . . |

Djade007:Thanks I will look Into this. We are still improving the system, so every idea is valuable. |

@op, i hope you know that you are owing me a goat? a live goat at that (not an e-goat mind you). |
Re: A New Search Engine by guru01(m): 7:29pm On May 24, 2016 |
dhtml18:No problem sir, your goat is still on the pipeline. |
Re: A New Search Engine by Nobody: 2:26pm On May 25, 2016 |
guru01: Looks like you made your search engine crawl only Wikipedia and StackOverflow. Think about adding autocomplete feature to your website, using either JQuery autocomplete.js, or TypeAhead.js you can download it at http://twitter.github.io/typeahead.js/ |

guru01: Hello guru01 , I suggest you use php extensions written in c++ that way you can have the best if both worlds.Since you can code in c++ and you have written your php in a C++-like manner this should be a a simple task for you.That way you can have the advantage of speed and concurrency.But you will discover that writing a php extension is no trivial task.Well, I was lucky to discover a software that will convert already written c++ code to php extension code. If you are interested in the software pls let me know.It is a free downloadable software. As to database,if you don't mind your app being dependent on google you can opt to use google cloud for php. I think the issues raised here by ealier posters do not apply to it even thought it is a mysql kind of cloud database. |

Re: A New Search Engine by guru01(m): 5:37pm On May 27, 2016 |
I noticed that the first search takes some reasonable amount of seconds, but if you repeat that same search, you get the result in less than a second. Am serious working on the search speed which will improve this weekend. Cheers guys. |

guru01: Is your site offline? I am having difficulty accessing it. |
Re: A New Search Engine by Nobody: 3:34pm On Jul 08, 2016 |
guru01: helloo guru01, you have done a tremedous job on your search engine thingy and i must say, its a very welcome idea, and an impressive stride at it. . "so here's the question, why dont you make your search engine opensource?" . i know u'll probably curse me for this in your locally focused mind. but u would agree with me that you stand a 99% chance of hitting the world with your search engine if you make the opensource move....forget about u loosing grip of ur baby project... lookup linus travold on google. . you see, if you make this opensource, you will be like the linux pain in microsoft's ass. or more like the android pain in IOS ass. (I'm sure u get d idea) . there is no way you wont hit the world being opensource, you've got the nairaland team, coupled with the whole african team, not to mention the world working on making the first ever african opensource search engine. . BTW, this is an advice....a billion dollar advice...take it or leave it. you'll be surprised someone is already making use of this piece of advice... FYI, the site is offline |

Am sure you used Azizi search engine script , which is for my friend in moroco i did not have opportunity to visit the site but from all the complains of the other nairalanders, it is exactly the old version of the script . Bro Guru you can now check for the new version of the script on the official site . Azizi has updated it . Cheers ! |
