please is it possible for me to know, where a particular search for a word is coming from.

If you're asking which search engine a particular search came from, then yes, you can find all that info in your server's log file.
If you're asking for the geographic location where a search originated, then, no I don't think that's possible.

Hi ya, from a simple web site level your only option is to have a stats page fitted to your web site, some of them are quite good at "sugesting" what counrty it may have originated from or who the referer was (who directed the link) to you. But for delving deeper into that would end up bringing up the subject of Big Brother. Just imagine what would happen if someone did a search on my search engine and I phoned them up later, to ask about what they had done with what they found. I can see what IP address they came in from but that is about it.
