8,186 PointsA search engine is a lot of work and requires lots of back end code. I'd suggest python because it's easy to learn and can develop fast with it.
As I said though, a search engine is a monolithic project and will require a lot of learning in the realm of computer science (algorithms, data mining, possibly machine learning, ect.)
