Google Custom Search Engines (CSE) are designed to be fast and easy to implement, and don’t require any coding, at least for basic features. The Custom Search Engine user interface deliberately keeps things simple, as does the accompanying documentation. It doesn’t take long, though, for the first-time CSE builder to want to exercise finer control over their search engine, and to begin pushing up against the boundaries of the simple CSE control panel. That’s the topic we explore in this post.

This article is not intended as a gentle introduction to CSEs. For that, you may want to start with this overview of Google Custom Search Engines or this article showing how to build a good Custom Search Engine.

Let’s look at an example of customization. With CSEs, it’s easy to say “build me a search engine that searches the entire web, but gives these hand-picked resources (pages, groups of pages, or entire sites – you choose) a ’boost’ in the rankings, so that they tend to show up high on the results page.” In fact, this may be one of the most common use cases, and it’s supported naturally in the basic CSE user interface.

Labeling the World Wide Web

A surprisingly little-known fact is that Google, and some trusted partners, have quietly annotated a large number of web sites with standard labels. The fruits of this labor are quite visible in Google if you search on medical terms like “prostate cancer” or “bird flu”.

The results that you see, with the “refinement interface” prominently displayed above the list of search results, is another aspect of Google Topics, the platform that underlies Google Custom Search Engines. The same refinement UI you see here is available to authors of CSEs.

One of the key factors that will determine the long term success of Google’s Custom Search Engine announcement is whether or not users will find value in Custom Search Engines (CSEs). Put differently, will CSEs differ enough from Google’s core search results to be worth the trouble? Users are not going to use these things unless they improve their lives somehow, in some manner that they care about.

We do know that users care about searching. When a user begins a search, they want to find something. Since their real work begins when they are done searching, they want the search to be done fast, perhaps even instantly. We have all experienced it – where we do an initial search, find that the results are not what we want, we refine our search, and try it over again. Fundamentally, this whole process is a waste of our time until we get the result we want.

Overview

Google’s new Custom Search Engine (Google CSE) program enables web site owners to define their own search engines. CSE provides a deceptively simple form-based interface for building a domain-specific search engine on top of the Google search platform. This means that the builder gets to focus on selecting valuable content and tuning the ranking criteria, while Google does all the “heavy lifting” of crawling, indexing, ranking, and displaying results.

The main task of building a CSE is to determine which sites/URLs (including flexible URL patterns) are searched, and to define a set of rules that guide the ranking of results. Specifically, the CSE program allows four major methods for altering the search results:

The world of Search Engine Optimization is complicated for many reasons. For example, it is well known that the Google algorithm takes into account more than 100 factors in ranking a web page. In addition, search engines treat their algorithms as highly proprietary for two main reasons: (1) they don’t want their competition to know what they are doing, and: (2) they don’t want web spammers to design sites to get rankings that they don’t deserve.

Another reason the SEO world is so complicated is that it has changed dramatically over the past few years. What worked in 2003 stopped working in 2004. What worked in 2004 stopped working in 2005. The complexity of this environment, and the rapid changes, have led to many SEO myths. This article identifies the top 10 worst SEO ideas, and provides an explanation as to why they don’t work. Here is our top 10 list:

Whether it ends up being akin to Custer’s last stand or not, Microsoft has just announced Bing, as it desperately tries to find a way to take market share away from Google.

Whether you love the new name or not–personally, I think it’s a huge improvement on Windows Live Search–you owe it to yourself to go and try Microsoft’s revamped search offering when it launches on June 3. And by “try” I don’t mean enter one search query and make up your mind, I mean give it a solid week or two. You might just find that Bing pleasantly surprises.

At least, it surprised me. I’ve been playing with Bing for a couple of weeks now and I’ve been looking forward to today’s announcement. I’m not sure if Bing is good enough to break my Google habit, but there’s a lot under the hood to make me seriously consider switching from the all powerful, all knowing, Google.

Following Kevin Rudd’s tax bonus, Google Australia has released its own “stimulus package” aimed at helping Australian small businesses driving more sales online.

The offer consists in a free $75 credits on any new Google Adwords account created. If you are an existing advertiser, the offer does not apply but you are eligible to a Special Master Class seminar to improve the performance of your campaign.

Even if Google’s stimulus might be more targeted at increasing their customer base and generating good PR than a genuine act of charity toward Australian businesses ( read ITNews), it is still an interesting offer that many businesses will appreciate.
