Easily build fully customized search engines without any effort. With BuildaSearch you can create your own search engine in less than 5 minutes, without any coding involved. BuildaSearch offers customized logos, colors, and layouts, and seems to return results pretty quickly. The interface a bit simple makes you think BuildaSearch is a children's tool , but the end result works as promised. You can keep your custom search on Buildasearch's servers, or use their API to install your search on any server that supports PHP. It's a handy tool for those who find themselves digging through the same collection of sites repeatedly.
