New Experimental Aviation Web Search Engine

[Bill_dom]

I just recently opened eabportal.com (http://eabportal.com) to the public. This is a google powered search engine that will look exclusively in over 500 websites related to experimental airplanes. The search result will be tabbed by categories to help narrow down your results. The idea behind a google custom search like eabportal.com (http://eabportal.com) over a general google search is to eliminate unwanted results, like a search for “Zodiac” won’t include tons of pages about astrology but will focus on Zenith Aircraft. Google custom search will include 4 sponsors at the top of each page, keep in mind they are not my sponsors but theirs and that may not be related to experimental airplanes.

Please give it a try and let me know your impressions.

Seems to work fine on my Samsung phone, but doesn't format properly using my Kindle Fire tablet. The search box is only 1 character wide.

This looks great, Bill - an interesting and potentially very helpful resource!

I see that you have eaaforums.org included, but not eaa.org. It would be great if you could add our main site, and our video subsite, eaavideo.org, as well.

Thanks Hal, good catch, I though it was there, I just added it, should be indexed and available in a couple of days

Thanks Ron, although the page is responsive, I have not tested it in all screen sizes, is only fully tested on desktop versions. Has yet to configure presentation for mobile devices. Your page www.wanttaja.com is included for indexing.
