The Google Custom Search Engine blog announced the launch of the new APIs for Google Custom Search Engines.
The blog says:
With Linked CSEs, you designate a CSE specification URL with each search request (as a hidden form field in your search box HTML code). Google retrieves the CSE specification from the URL when your user searches in the CSE. We cache and refresh the results so that only the first search to your CSE incurs any delay. The flexibility to specify how your search engine should behave, just when your user is doing the query, using whatever data sources you want, opens up many possibilities
And since the blog is written for someone unlike myself, I had no idea what it all meant, but thankfully Search Engine Land was able to save the day:
In short, instead of you managing all the criteria on Google’s console, you can manage it via your own tool by using this API.
What’s this have to do with internet marketing? I’m not really sure, but I bet it works into the mix somehow.
