Rollyo

Rollyo allows users to create customized search engines (aka Searchrolls). A Searchroll is a search engine that searches for information only on the user-selected websites. For instance, you can create a search tool for ‘free software’ using major free software directories as source sites. Similarly, you can create ‘Reference’ search engine using major reference tools (Wikipedia, answers.com, etc.) as source sites, and so on.

    BBC World: “Rollyo offers the ability to search the content of a list of specified websites, allowing you to narrow down the results to pages from websites that you already know and trust.”

Rollyo Features:

  • Customize Rollyo homepage by selecting favorite searchrolls.
  • Explore Searchrolls created by other members
  • Embed a Rollyo Searchbox (along with your SearchRolls) on your blog/website. See it in action below.
  • Add any Searchroll to Firefox Searchbox
  • Create Searchrolls using your Bookmarks as target websites
