That is called BOSS (build ur own search service). It is particularly for cr8ing specific search engines...here soccer search..it is based on the yahoo engine itself....and the part wherein u said google it is funny...you bettr yahoo! it....
If you're really planning to make your own search engine then good luck i do hope it will be a big business soon. But its kinda difficult if your target project is Search Engine. but anyways good luck to you.
I think it is not possible to get a search engine of your own in a easy way. As one can not do all the task that are used to build up a search engine. better you go with a team.
Hey there is a open source php search engine script called sphider. If you need sphider plus (market price 25 Euro) .You can pm me for a review copy . Open Source version --> www.sphider.eu Paid Version ---> http://www.sphider-plus.eu/

are you trying to create a search engine like Google.com or a search engine for your website? Google offer Google Search API they can be very useful and create your customized SE easily
Try this here: http://www.google.com/coop/cse/ You can customise it and make it original. AOL, and other large sites use this script from Google. Its the best solution if you dont want to spend loads on developing your own script!
following softwares can help build search engine for vertical search or interanet search: for small search engine: Google gsa GB1001 200,000 pages around 30000$ wrensoft masternode over 1,000,000 pages, 250$ freefin 25,000 pages around 79$ ht://Dig 100,000 pages, free Webinator 200,000 pages, >5800$ For big search engine like google: Lexst search engine software index 2,000,000,000 pages, 800,000$. or 2 millions pages, 4800$.
This is a great dream to develop your own search engine.... I didn't know that we can create our own search engines but now it is known to me.. Thanx
If you wan't to make a search engine, go for it! I'm making a search engine myself, from scratch using PHP and MySQL and it's fun even though it's a lot of work. I'm don't give out or sell the software yet though as it's not mature enough. There's a lot of both free and commercial scripts and services for making your own search engine, several has been mentioned already. Some are nearly plug-and-play while others require a fair amount of programming to integrate into a website. Swish-e is one free open source search software that I didn't see mentioned. It can index up to a million pages according to the docs. Simon
Hi! IF u want to run ur own search engine then dont buy a script, code it urself, so it would be unique....
I've done that, coded one myself. It's fun and a lot of work. I've spent a lot of my "free time" the last two years coding and so far reached an index size of 250,000 pages running on a $15/month linode. I'm not allowed to post a link but you can find it easily by searching for Secret Search Engine Labs on Google I wouldn't recommend anyone to start coding though if you're not really into search as it's just a really large project and you'll need some inspiration to keep going.

Vertical Niche? Ando Saabas, http://www.cs.ioc.ee/~ando/ has written a php based search utility that might do what you want. You can get the latest free version of the code here; http://www.sphider.eu/ The free version works better than the paid version does incidently, as Ando hasn't added anything really beyond the free version. The free version can list up to at least 300,000 sites (as far as I went with the test of it) and is a simple keyword based search. You might do well to try it out.
