    Why do you have your own search engine? Was it hard to create? Are you just scraping the results of others? Using their API?
    Is it a legit business?

    I did have my own search engine, but the DB was getting way to big to be used on my company hosting, without having extra payments. So for now, i have stopped it, I still have the DB for it though...

    Some day, I may re do the whole project with a few people and get it funded properly.

    I do not have a search engine since I was thinking it required a lot of hard work and effort for me to maintain one :D

    ruhuu has very unique design or template

    If you do have one, what software would you use? Commercial? I'd like to know because I was thinking about doing the same thing. General search engines are too hard to compete with , but a niche search engine..that is the way things are going.

    You could never compete with google so what is the point? Who would use it anyway?

    I'm confused, why bother launching a search engine if all you're going to do is use a script? Why not learn a language and do something unique. I won't say my engines name, but honestly you can succeed, but it's not a quick few hour project.
