Search Engine

Web search engine? That is really hard to do. If you need to ask how to do it, you probably do not have the experience/ressources to achieve it.

Basically, you need to analyse pretty much all the pages of all the public websites and then, using the data you compiled from that, you present a list of websites that are relevant to the keywords the person used in its search request.

Anyway, you question is very vague...
 
@LTomy Well, I just want to make a search engine that I can add data to and it will show the results.

Using crawler.
 
Well, okay yeah, that is simpler. But still not easy. What do you want to search? Do you have a list of 'products' or a list of 'articles'? You need to define a criteria that will be used to determine the list of 'articles' or 'products' that are relevent to the search query.

How do I do that then,

JSON:
[{
    "Title": "Google",
    "Description": "Search the web with Google.",
    "Keywords": "search, google, web",
    "URL": "https://www.google.com"
},
{
    "Title": "YouTube",
    "Description": "Watch videos on YouTube",
    "Keywords": "watch, videos, youtube",
    "URL": "https://youtube.com"
}]
Just some of the things.
 
Well, you could first look if the request matches one of the name of the links (Ex. 'Youtube') and otherwise look for the links that matches the closest (Example, return 'Youtube' if the request is 'outube').
 
You should probably look at making something a little more straight forward than a search engine 😂

Building a search function is half the problem, you also need to crawl websites and store data about them too...
 
I'm no Larry. :)
Do you know how to crawl a site? simpler question.. do you know how to feed user input into a search engine api? lol. IF the answer is no... you have a mountain of a task to overcome. IF the answer is yes, that is just a small piece of the puzzle.

Sadly, no.
