       | Hi, creator here, sorry I ran out of quota, I set it higher now.
       | Should work again.

       | This looked pretty good at first! Now I don't get results

       | 
       | Otherwise, I would have loved to add it to my search engine
       | comparison page. I found 41 useful unique search engines so far:

         | Thank you, I ran out of quota. I pay for the queries out of my

       | How about setting the title to something like "Goosh: the Google

       | It seems to not make frontend requests to Google.
       | 
       | So Google has an API?
       | 
       | Where is the pricing information? I cannot find it. Even when
       | searching with Goosh :)

           | Thanks                   Custom Search JSON API provides 100
           | search queries per day for free.         If you need more,
           | you may sign up for billing in the API Console.
           | Additional requests cost $5 per 1000 queries, up to 10k
           | queries per day.              If you need more than 10k
           | queries per day and your Programmable         Search Engine
           | searches 10 sites or fewer, you may be interested in
           | the Custom Search Site Restricted JSON API, which does not
           | have a         daily query limit.
           | 
           | This makes it sound like 10k queries per day is the max, no
           | matter how much you pay?

             | There's no limit if you restrict it to 10 websites or less.
