Rapidshare is the most popular file hosting service. No doubts.

Despite being such a useful file hosting service, Rapidshare doesn’t provide an answer to how to search rapidshare files and folders. From one point of view, it is right also, because the users who upload files on RapidShare, may not like to share these files with others. But still I feel that a system could have been developed where users can tag the files as private / public and other users can do a Rapidshare file search for those files, which are tagged public.

rapidshare search enginesFrom the general perspective, it is sometimes very useful to search rapidshare folders and files, because many times you may find very useful files and software free of cost on RapidShare, which you may not find elsewhere.

How to search Rapidshare files

There are two ways to search Rapisdhare files.

  • Use Search Engines like Google, Yahoo etc. You can use <site:rapidshare.com “YOU DESIRED FILENAME”>. This is a crude method, but sometimes very useful.
  • Use Rapidshare Search Engines

Rapidshare Search Engines are basically websites, which dive deep into RapidShare database to search files and folders for you. Rapidshare Search Engines are basically of two types.

  • Those engines which maintain their own database, which is regularly updated to synch with Rapidshare’s database. This database is used by these Engines for your Rapidshare Link Search.
  • The other type of engine search Rapidshare through Google, Yahoo etc., by using search strings as we already have given earlier.

Needless to say, the first type of Search Engines usually perform better and give you better search results for your searched files and folders.
