Hi fellas, Now i'm trying to make my blog better, and easy to explore with search engine on my blog. After a bit searched on "mbah google", i fortunately found this "Google Custom Search Engines (CSE)". Evidently you can create Google Custom Search Engines (CSE) on your lovely blog.

Google Custom Search Engines (CSE) are extremely efficient in digging out the most important data from your blog and displays it to the visitor. This increases the number of pageviews and page impressions of your blog because the reader is kept engaged in reading more and more. Further you can easily integrate your Google AdSense Ads to your Google Custom Search box, which again increases your blog revenue for every click made on the search results.
