Download HtmlSearch
Copy it on your website
Make a link to the search page

HtmlSearch does not replace popular search engines such as Yahoo, Altavista, Excite, Copernic, etc..., it supplements them by allowing you to search through all the pages of a web site, whether that site has been indexed by these search engines or not. If you're curious, you can read the overview.
