google custom search. set it up to search just your site and you have a custom site search solution.
it is free. it is good. not too precise if you need to index very specific data (i.e. i used it on a tour company's website, but searching for something like "Thailand beach 6 days" will not always return the list of all 6-day ours in Thailand, but rather any tour that is in Thailand, with those on the beach at the top) if you pay $100/year you will not get ads in search results (which can point to competitors) or select which ads to show (i think it is an option for the paid version). or be cheeky and use js to manipulate DOM and hide the ads... verity is always an option, but it is a bit clumsy and tends to break from time to time, and is a bit of a resource hog especially with large collections. i have not used a Vspider, though - just had scheduled tasks set up to run re-indexing...
