    search engines make money thru the ads that they display along with the organic searches, like Google makes money through Adwords and AdSense.

    But making a search engine isn't a big deal but running and maintaining it is not easy and also the type of marketing that a search engine requires is huge you need to be to good to become successful so dont think that starting a search engine and earning money is easy.

    i don't think you fully understand the mammoth task you are taking on.starting a search engine could be the hardest task anyone online could ever try to take on.

    I wouldn't bother creating a search engine, unless it's some kind of pet project. You probably wouldn't have enough money to make it succesful (i.e. $millions for a start) and you'd need a very large team to get it off the ground, advertise it, protect it from all sorts of attack etc.
