ShareMiner: Search Web for Files

ShareMiner is a file search engine. Rather than giving you relevant web pages it finds you files. You can use it to search the web for software, video, music, ebooks, documents, games and archives.

From the website:

Most of the Internet search engines look through the contents of all web pages, while ShareMiner looks through the names of files available on specific websites that are likely to contain the file you are looking up … ShareMiner.com allows you to find an actual file that you can download.

When searching for files ShareMiner scans popular file sharing networks like Rapidshare and Megaupload. So if you are looking for some popular files there is a good chance you’ll find them here.

Features:

  • Search web for files.
  • Download and save files to your PC.
  • Filter search results by type like software, games, videos, music, docs & ebooks or archives (ZIP/RAR).
  • Add ShareMiner Search to your Firefox search bar.
  • No sign-up or registration needed.

Other similar search engines include TotMe, FilesTube, Rapidshare1 and FileSnatcher.
