So, I’m inviting you to try our plugin searchGBY. It is a plugin for the major browsers that helps you in your search by combining all results from the major browsers into one.

If you have questions about our plugin, don’t hesitate to contact me.

I too made the switch from WordPress search to Google custom search. I was using both for about a month so I could make a final decision. When I wasn’t using the searches I was trying to visualize what I liked about each of them. The mental photos I was getting strongly lead me to switch to Google custom search, but I just couldn’t do it yet. The next week another photo came into thought and I have to make the switch to Google custom search. It fits my style of work better and my personal life. In the end, I’m glad I made the move.

So this may be a little outdated given the time this post came out, but do any of you know if Google Search remains superior to WP search? Has WordPress improved it? I’m considering doing the switch and I’m wondering if it’s worth it…

I’m very suprised that more people used the Google search, I wonder if it would produce the same findings on other blogs? I would still stick with wordpress too, just because of the adverts on the the results page of the Google search results.

Thanks for the info. I prefer Google search because it allows you to monetize your search results. .-= LoveGuru´s last blog ..Letting Go of Someone You Love =-.

Thanks for providing some insight to WP search vs. Google search, I feel better about my choice to switch to the latter. Not only do you get better search results, but you can monetize those search results as well. That's a double whammy for me. .-= gjperera´s last blog ..Pin Frequently Used Documents and Save Time in Office 2007 =-.

[...] didn’t need to check, because there is proof that Google Custom Search is used MORE than the regular WordPress search (at problogdesign.com) and as we know that, we don’t want to hide the fact that it is Google [...]

“You shall implement Custom Search in a manner that: (a) conforms to the Custom Search Specifications provided by Google to You”

and

“Google must be given attribution using the appropriate text or brand elements when Google results are shown.”

Fairly plain, certainly isn’t legalese
