Google
is the best Internet search engine:
Add Google to Your Website
I use it for the site-specific search found at the top of each page.
To place a Google search like I have on your website, use the following code:
<form method="get" action="http://www.google.com/search">
<input type="text" name="q" size="27" maxlength="255" value="">
<input type="submit" value="Search">
<input type="hidden" name="sitesearch" value="matthewdoucette.com">
</form>
Do not forget to change "matthewdoucette.com" to your own domain name.
Also, why a search width size of 27 characters?
Jakob Nielsen
explains in his
Top Ten Guidelines for Homepage Usability
article, in his fifth guideline "Include a Search Input Box" that
based on his findings in his "Web Usability 2004 project",
he recommends making the search box 27 characters wide."
