A great tool!

Is Myriad working right? I have not gotten anything but a search box with errors in it for quite a while now see example below

Warning: main(Snoopy.class.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/myriadse/public_html/index.php on line 16

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'Snoopy.class.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/myriadse/public_html/index.php on line 16

Thanks Starr
sorry on that...not sure how I did that ;)

works now though
cheers

Some searches return results that include "®".
Is this an encoding thing?

What happened to myriadsearch.com?.....You out of business?...thanks

Really COOL, But Me too getting error
Fatal error: Call to undefined function domxml_open_mem() in /home/mario/public_html/myriad/myriad.php on line 157

for LINE

$dom = domxml_open_mem($site_results,DOMXML_LOAD_PARSING,$error);

Any Help to solve this

Thanks in Advance

Real nice. There are similar, but the simple interface and results are great. My preferred interface are "require" on GYM, and "exclude" on A. It really is amazing the lack of overlap on two- and three-word searches.

Hey Aaron!

your tool section rocks again ... man, you are releasing those tools like Google & Co are releasing their new products on an almost monthly if not weekly basis.... do you get any sleep still, or is your armada of "ghost-coders" growing so fast? :-)

Please let me know when it's ready to mirror that tool as well - I love it already...

Christoph

Aaron, just scrape Teoma - that's been Ask's answer whenever I query their reps. They don't mind as long as you don't scrape Ask direct.

Thanks for another great tool. I am ready to host a mirror when you release the source code.

Looks much better - nice to see it has a logo now. :)

Just a quick point - error message this morning:

"Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/myriadse/public_html/myriad.php on line 101"

Great. I expect to use it often. A search shortcut for firefox ( mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html ) would come handy.

Another great tool. Thanks for letting us know. Mike is a genius!

All I can say is, I did NOT choose the logo...fixes to come as soon as school calms down a bit...

looking really nice, I really engoy those easy to see tables. the idea of using diferent colors , on diferents td was cool!

cool, how much time does it take to develop a grate seo tool like that?

This one took about 20 hours from start to finish.

Fantastic tool! Definitely gets a good review from me. Thanks.

You can search each engine up to 50 deep, but for most searches I did not think it was practical to show results beyond that depth...which for most queries adds up to somewhere like 100 to 150 results.

Great Aron, just will use it often....

What about international languages,,,,

I can support you..

Great tool. It will definetly be used a lot around here. Oh and I think the purple logo is cool.

Great Tool. Well done!

This is a spectacular tool, really.

The only thing that would make it more valuable would be the ability to filter meta search results by domain.

I'd pay for that feature!

Hi:

I really love this tool, it's esactly what I was looking for. Since the Yahoo limit queries to 5000 I'm trying to host it to run my own using my yahoo and google APIs but every time I do a search I got the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function domxml_open_mem() in /home/mario/public_html/myriad/myriad.php on line 157

The line in questionn is this:

$dom = domxml_open_mem($site_results,DOMXML_LOAD_PARSING,$error);

If I comment out that line the search come up right, Google, MSN and ASK are ok but nothing in yahoo. The Yahoo column is empty same as Total results... only that engine, the others are ok.
I woud really appreciate some help to solve it. Sorry for posting here but I guess that this can be useful for others as well.

Keep up the god work!!

The Google search doesn't work.

Hi Charles
the tool was featured in SearchDay today, so it got a bunch more use than normal. Google has the lowest API limit, so if the use is heavy on the day you have to insert your own Google API key after the first 1,000 queries.

This is a really cool tool. It would be great to be able to use the local versions of the engines (like Google.fr, yahoo.fr, etc.) instead of .com versions.

Looks good, but doesn't seem to work. Try the following and note that apparently Google and Yahoo never have results. There are also error messages printed at the beginning of the result page.

This is a great tool for comparing keyword visiblity across multiple search engines. It makes my job as a web manager much easier!

Hi Arno
I think the problem is that I did not prepare for the popularity of it to take off so quickly. The tool was in SearchDay recently, so it was seen by an amazing number of search fans. In time I will see if I can get the engines to ok extending the API limit. I just used it and Yahoo! worked. My guess is that in a day or two Google will work, or you can get Google to work right now if you enter your own Google API key

Hello sir
I have just installed your search code in http://www.meraportal.com/search folder and make a search but it is returning a error kindly check it and tell me how to remove it. error is (Fatal error: Call to undefined function: domxml_open_mem() in /home/meraport/public_html/search/myriad.php on line 157)

Thanks

Your host needs to support domxml.

index.php and myriad.php are the same so it does not return results, while in the index.php there is the line of code: form action = myriad.php

I think it would be helpful if the URL were in a larger font - similar to Google results - so that it can be more readily seen and read, and not such a stress on the eyes.

Also, I spot checked the rankings against searches run on the search engines, and have been seeing different results. Are you trying to consistently pull accurate ranking numbers, or as you said, is it going to be impossible to get the rankings correct?

Thanks - I hope the kinks get worked out, because this tool would save me lots of time if it were consistently accurate.

What api key limitations do each of the 4 big search engines have in place for this search tool?
I have been getting different stories and currently know the following, Yahoo 5000 search limitation and Google 1000 search limitation.

How can this limitation be surpassed?

Hi Rachel

>I hope the kinks get worked out, because this tool would save me lots of time if it were consistently accurate.

The kinks aren't on my end (unless they say it is ok to scrape their SERPS).

I can't force the search engines to place the same results in the API as their regular results, but if they do not make the APIs useful people will not use them.

Cool Banannas as one of my clients likes to say. I would be very interested in purchasing the source code if its available to buy and not to expensive of course. You have my email address from the post so hope to hear from you to say yeah or nay.

Either way great Job dude, keep up the good work.

i found the tool great.

As iam trying to execute the code there are no results getting displayed... can anyone ls help me

Hi Aaron, Like everyone that has left comments before me. Awesome tool. However I have been trying to gte it to work. I changed all txt to php. I have also aquired Google key and placed in both line 20 of code. I have also downloaded and placed NuSoap lib in tree. But the meta search engine still will not generate result page.

Please help with this. I get no error message just does nothing. www.ezipit.com/search/index.php

Thank you for your help.

I am interested to know why Text "®" appears...

Sure....its what I find a bit pointless with G, Y!, etc...that after the first say 40 results, results get a bit irrelevant....superb tool

"®" is this to do with UTF??? Ansii??

That is most likely an encoding issue.

i got the google AJAX Search API key, but no search results are showing (from any engines at all).

any pointers to the right key?

thx,
m

This tool looks great. But when I downloaded all the pages and renamed them as instructed and ran in on my local server,
no result page was displayed.

Am I missing something?
I used the Google API key on the myriad.php file and copied it to the index.php file. If anyone has had a similar problem before and resolved it, please do help me out.

Seems this is dead app :(
anyone have a suggestion for something else?

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class soapclient in /home/searchro/public_html/s/nusoap.php on line 4102
i got this error from the first usage of the script .. i`m not a php guru so if you can help me fix this i`l apreciate. thanks

I think it is because the tools use PHP4...and most servers use PHP5 now. The tools need to be recoded.

Conceptually, I like the tool. The problem is the results.
Takes a LONG time and usually does not return all results.

Any plans to upgrade the tool?

Google essentially killed their API. But they promise RSS feeds of search results soon. When those are made available the tool will probably be rebuilt again.

great tool arron i like it alot just will use it often....

just i will also add seo good tools to my site

Can you please tell me what is the difference between "require"and "default" option???
