• How To De-index Your Docs From Google (And Then Fix It)

  One other important detail — there is an in-site search for the C7 docs. Notably, it is built on a programmable Google search engine. Basically, that means that the search functionality on the site is powered by Google. A search query entered into the C7 docs search box gives basically the same results as entering the query on google.com and filtering by site:docs.camunda.org. Again, "foreshadowing....". - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• One search box 2 websites.

  I was wondering if there is a way a search box can browse through two websites at once. The websites are built on Wordpress. I read about making a "custom search engine" eg. google's solution but it won't cut it. So is there a way I can make a custom search box that has two sources or is there a plugin for something similar. The websites are on the same domain but different subdomain if that makes any difference. Source: over 1 year ago

• The Best Marketing Tools and Integrations for your Static Site

  We recommend: Pagefind for static sites up to 100K pages. It’s hard to beat CloudCannon’s own Pagefind — a free, open-source tool that sips as little of your users’ bandwidth as possible, while serving lightning-fast and finely configurable results. Even better, Pagefind’s search index is rebuilt automatically when your site builds, meaning it’s always up to date. For larger sites or more complex needs, we’d... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

  In return I offer this: Google lets you build you own custom search engine, where you can choose what kind of results you are interested in, what to include, what to exclude. You could make one that only displays results found on reddit for example. Here is a link to the tool https://programmablesearchengine.google.com/about/. Source: almost 3 years ago

• One Year of TILs

  Have you tried making your own google search? You can pick what sites it will search. I'm not sure if you can say "Prioritize these sites, but still give me results from other sites too". I do wish there was something next to each search result though that was like "I like this site, include it more often." or "This site is garbage, ignore it forever" I think it was this thing:... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
