I am thinking of having a search engine for my website. However, I came to know about using PHP to browse through a number of indexes saved in our database. Is it a right method or any other algorithm for doing the same thing is available..
Please do tell me any other possible way of implementing a search engine for my own website.
For your information, my website is an informative one with just HTML contents.
Thanks in advance 🙂 🙂
You could try mysql full text search or for more no of records i would suggest sphinx.
You could use Sphinx for this kind of search (and it would surely be very fast), but the kind of fields you want to search on are really better served directly within the database – making some assumptions that you’re providing good indexes on the tables.
The real strength of Sphinx lies in full-text search, which you don’t indicate you’ll need. Click here for more details http://sphinxsearch.com/downloads .
