Well, good news. Unless you're going to use the Maps API, you don't need an API key anymore. And the way I read the TOU, as long as you're not charging people to access your site, you can still use the API. The challenge would be that, if Google's crawlers can't access your site, it probably won't be all that useful for a site search, if that's what you're aiming for. That said, I am NOT a legal expert, and if you have any doubts whatsoever about this, you should consult someone who is. Check out the terms at the link below:
