Performing a search to identify web sites that relate to a search term
based on text within the web sites includes receiving at least one search term
that then is compared with electronic information within at least one electronic
information store to determine whether matches exist. The electronic information
within the at least one information store may include text and/or full text displayed
by different web pages from different web sites. Results based on the matches that
are determined to exist are displayed. The results include at least one website
identifier. The search may be performed by a web host having members and may further
include automatically scanning and storing the text of a website when the website
is accessed by a member of the web host. The stored text may be compared against
received search terms.
