Musclebuilder Smart Search
I love Google; couldn’t live without it and I’m sure you’re the same. But often — too often — pages and pages go by before the right site pops up, and sometimes I give up too early and start jumping around to the most likely sources. Quick scan, read a few interesting but un-related pages, click off to another site, ditto action, until an hour’s slipped away and I’m late for the gym.
Yeah, I know that’s what the web’s all about. But still.
Today I’m here to tell you I love Google even more than yesterday because they’ve given us the tools to create our own search engines. You heard me: We get to google only the sites and pages we choose — so far about 150 sites have been selected by the IOL team for our search page. It took about a day to set up, and I’m sure there will be further tweaks over time, but man, oh, man is it worth it!
Here’s what it looks like. It’s operational; give it a shot and see what pops up.
The search box is installed in the forum now and will be in place here in the blog shortly. The code will also be available for others -- you, for instance -- to place in the html code of your website to make a musclebuilding search engine available for your musclebuilding visitors.
You can also click on this link to musclebuildersearch.com and bookmark it as a first stop before googling your muscle and fitness queries. Just the same, I'm sure not promising you won't get distracted by the fine sites produced; in fact I suggest you do your musclebuildersearch googling after you get back from the gym instead.
We're stylin' now!
