Search My Site – open-source search engine for personal and independent websites


searchmysite.net - the open source search engine and search as a service for user-submitted personal and independent websites

If you want to research people's personal experiences of or deep-dives into certain topics, hobbies or interests, then you may find the searchmysite.net public search useful to avoid having to wade through all the marketing websites and blog spam that fill the big search engines. Does not show adverts and promotes advert-free results pages, to remove the incentives for spam and surveillance capitalism. Aims to have a sustainable and user-aligned operating model, planning to pay running costs via the "search as a service" features, rather than relying on advertising which could put it in conflict with user needs.
