Google launched Custom Business Search for small business.

Google introduced the commercial version of Google Custom Search, which will allow small businesses to improve search on their own sites.

In addition to the features of the free version , Custom Business Search Edition includes technical support, setting up search results output using the XML API, and the absence of any advertising. The cost of the service is not great : $ 100 per year for a search on sites containing up to 5 thousand pages, and $ 500 per year - up to 50 thousand pages. It is much cheaper than other similar services.

It should be noted that for a large business, Google has long since been offering a Search Appliance - a hardware solution that provides local indexing (up to 500 thousand documents) for searching the intranet, costing $ 30 thousand. For the average business, Google offers the Mini Search Appliance , which provides search 50 thousand documents each.
