i think you are confusing google's custom search engine (CSE) and their site search. "Google Site Search" is for specific sites, but a CSE starts with the whole web, and you can tweak the weightings for certain sites or blacklist them if you wish.
- kissickas 16y agoThanks for being helpful. Here's where I run into a problem: http://www.google.com/cse/manage/create http://www.google.com/cse/manage/create What do I put in the "Sites to search" box?
- elsewhen 16y agoif i recall correctly, you used to be able to start with the full web and refine by just blacklisting... now i see that if you try to make it past the step you linked to without entering any websites in the "sites to search" field, it gives the following message: "You must enter 1 or more websites." i haven't read the docs recently, but it does appear that they have restricted this product since it first launched. sorry if i have led you astray.
