    I see is this section of DP that there are lots of new search engines....

    i would like to know! if any what are the benefits to having your own search engine?

    with the big 3 Google Yahoo and MSN, plus paid to search engines such as Myhpf.co.uk paying you cash
    and engines such as Scour.net offering net point rewards

    1, what chance does anyone have?
    2, what would be the main benefit's in owning your own search engine?

    I would say that the chances of success is close to zero. If you are unsuccessful, you basically risk nothing except a bit of your time and money. If you are successful, you have to spend a lot on hardware and bandwidth. You need to be extremely successful to start to be profitable and hope that one of the Big 3 may view you favorably and buy you over.
