From docs
$orders = App\Order::search('Star Trek')->paginate(15);
Like a google search, first search page will be page one. I must be really mis-understanding the question.
Also from docs:
Once you have retrieved the results, you may display the results and render the page links using Blade just as if you had paginated a traditional Eloquent query:
<div class="container">
@foreach ($orders as $order)
{{ $order->price }}
@endforeach
</div>
{{ $orders->links() }} ///HERE HERE
