Virtual Mechanics has partnered with Wrensoft, the creator of Zoom Search Engine.

Zoom is a software package that adds custom searching facilities to your website. It provides fast and powerful full-text searching by indexing your website in advance with a user friendly desktop application that allows you to configure and index your site from your Windows computer.

Zoom is available as a free package for use on small personal websites (up to 50 pages). There is no advertising, nag screens, or time restrictions.

Registered users of Virtual Mechanics products can purchase the Professional Edition at a 25% discount contact us if you are interested.

Wrensoft has developed a Tutorial describing how to integrate Zoom Search Engine with SiteSpinner (and Web Engine) here.

Zoom support is available here.

Thanks. I wil be looking at this soon. Has anybody else already tried this? How does it compare to google's search for your site or MSN's?

I emailed Wrensoft, and within 15 minutes I received a response with the coupon code for 25% off. I purchased the product and could not be happier.

What's nice about this software is it indexes documents as well, so pdf's, doc's, etc can be included in your searches. It even indexes .swf

It also files your visitors' searches so you can see what visitors are most interested in.

Just wanted to pass this on. Thank you for this excellent recommendation.

Glad to hear that Wrensoft is still honoring the discount for SiteSpinner customers. We'll contact them and see if we can formaly extend it.
