Google Custom Search
I've finally created my Food Blog Search Engine with google custom search. The link up a the top of my page titled "search links" will take you to it. I've taken the 1800 links from foodblog blog, a site that more or less seems defunct, and put them into sites searched by the custom search engine. I've also added these sites to my list of links, which I'm sure I'll get around to adding to the site at some point (other than the blogroll at the bottom).
Why is this a good thing? Well for one it makes it so that the recipes I get when searching only come from blogs rather than these large databases like cooks.com or about.com. Don't get me wrong, I love these sites but I find much more interesting things in the blogs I read. Although it might be more relevant, I never see food blog in a search engine when I search for food.
If you end up using it let me know, also if you want to add your site to the list let me know. At some point I will probably set it up so people can do so automatically but for now just leave a comment.
1: Beaten to the punch
It looks like someone already beat me to this: http://foodblogsearch.com/ Oh well, I'll keep using both until I find a clear winner, maybe I'll post to their version if I like it better.
