Lijit Search Gadget Is Better for Blogger Blogs Than Google Search Gadget

If you've been frustrated with the inadequacy of the Google Custom Search gadget that is part of the basic gadget array in Blogger, as I have, you'll want to read on.  I'd often use it to try to search my own blog and couldn't find my posts, which begged the question of why I had the search bar on my site at all.
Recently, while catching up on Natural Papa's interesting blog, I noticed his Lijit search bar.  I did a quick search on it and was amazed at the rich content it delivered.  So I added it for free to my own site, which is very easy to do using the instructions the site provides.

Now, when I search my own site using my Lijit bar, I find everything I know should be there and have confidence that my readers will find all relevant content, too.

Hi Meg,

Thanks for the great synopsis of Lijit and trying out our custom search! Glad to hear you're liking it.

As you probably noticed, we not only provide you with a free custom search, but also highly relevant stats about your readers, their search behavior and traffic and finally, help you monetize through search and front page, display ads (if you so choose).

If you or any of your readers ever have any questions, please feel free to e-mail me anytime. I'm grace at lijit dot com. We love feedback and connecting with our publishers.

All the best!
