Google Custom Search

Give your visitors a helping hand with finding the content they need. The Google Custom Search plugin uses Google Programmable Search Engine (formerly Custom Search) to add a fast, familiar search tool to your site. Quick and easy to set up, you can have search running on your site within minutes.
