What error are you encountering when you try to create the index? &nbsp;Please also share information on your setup - are you on a dedicated server, and do you have MySQL root access?<br />
<br />
Using MySQL full-text index will definitely help if you are doing keyword searches. &nbsp; Just note that there is also a limit to it's scalability. &nbsp;It's good if MySQL is still able to cache the index in memory, but if not, performance may still be unsatisfactory. &nbsp;Suggest you also consider 3rd-party engines like Sphinx (see <a href="http://sphinxsearch.com/" rel="ugc">http://sphinxsearch.com/</a>.) - that of course assumes you have control over your servers.

full text index

Databases are organized collections of data, most commonly accessed through management systems including schemas, tables, queries and processes that allow users to enter and manipulate the information or utilize it in other fashions, such as with web applications or for reporting purposes.

Databases

MySQL is an open source, relational database management system that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. Acquired by Oracle in 2009, it is frequently used in combination with PHP installations, powering most of the WordPress installations.

MySQL Server

SQL (Structured Query Language) is designed to be used in conjunction with relational database products as of a means of working with sets of data. SQL consists of data definition, data manipulation, and procedural elements. Its scope includes data insert, query, update and delete, schema creation and modification, and data access control.
