Search Engine 2003

Tags: Linux, MySQL, PHP, Search.

As a challenge for myself i decided to built my own search engine with the purpose of indexing danish websites and making them searchable.

The search engine was built around the concept of a crawler, an indexer and a search page. The crawler just crawled web pages and searched for non-visited links to put in the indexer database. The indexer then visited all those links and retreive information about the website to make it searchable.

The search page then acted as a interface to the database built by the indexer to show search results to the user.

Despite of the ambitious project the search engine actually worked rather well and a rather big index was quickly built.

The project was hosted on a home-server in a LAMP setup.
