What this module does for you

done Easy to Understand, It allows you to search only a certain domain, web page, or even topic for free. It makes the Internet smaller, and you’re in complete control.

done Custom Ranking, Suppose you compile a list of a few sites based on a certain keyword but when you test out some queries using the search tool, you may see that in the search results, those articles that you preferred the most do not rank at the top. Now, you can even control the ranking of the various search results in the Google Custom Search tool.

done Public URL, You can also get the public URL for your CSE that you can use this new search engine when simply surfing around the web.

done SEO, Custom search is an easy way to help you find competitor’s links. You can see where your competition is earning links and then try and earn those links on your own.

done Monetization, Although Google shows ads with the free version –but you can get a share from google's revenue by connecting it with an AdSense account. So, more the search –more the money for you.

done Analytics, Google keeps track of search queries and gives you all the analytic data. It helps you to understand what your users are looking for on your website.

done To Improve the Overall Traffic and Visibility of your Websites, GCS has the potential to boost the traffic and visibility of your websites since the results are limited to specific domains. What otherwise could have been missed through a normal google search as it displays the worldwide results, Google Custom Search ensures that those results are displayed through the custom search engine.

done Easy Configuration and Installation, Google Custom Search is very easy to configure, customize and finally set it up on your website. Almost every basic setting can be configured using a simple GUI interface.
