basic programs and utilities to "build" a search engine?
not sure what you mean?

A search engine is "logic" written in a computer language that performs a certain task. It is just a program. Obviously, a good search engine is more complex than a simple program

well i would like to say that A SEARCH ENGINE is made in a programming language am i right?

Umm, yeah...everything you see on the computer (within reason) is "programming"

Just ask Google!

you are right ....
i think a search engine is developed by selecting a Perfect Data Structure i mean a searching Algorithm and make a program for this algorithm and them implement it.

every search engine has a algorithm behind it, that is usually made in C++, as for now, no body can beat Google, so better is to get their engine algorithm, and use it in your site, though it'll open up default as Google page. (every body's using their engine now, integrated).

In don't really think there is anything basic about building a search engine these days. Years ago, maybe, but in today's world you would need millions in capital to even think about competing with Google, Yahoo, or MSN.

And i read in the new york times today that Microsoft and Yahoo are changing their search engines. They are really focusing on competing with google.

Google is retaliating by introducing software that is more user friendly than microsoft's.

It will be a very interesting battle in the upcoming years.
