Most users that come across rapidshare realize that rapidshare doesn’t actually offer the facility in which one can search rapidshare files including movies, videos, music or software. This lack of a rapidshare search facility can be quite frustrating because rapidshare is quite popular and is one of the better file hosting platforms. Many people use it to upload and host movies, games, videos, music and other like minded files and accordingly this makes it quite popular to people wishing to download this type of material. It seems quite odd that rapidshare doesn’t allow the ability to search rapidshare movies, or other rapidshare files. As according to Alexa, it is ranked 18th out of 500 of the most popular websites worldwide on the internet. It really is quite strange that rapidshare doesn’t allow this functionality. It may be because by having this facility, it opens itself up to criminal prosecution for hosting illegal files and what not. And by not having it, it protects itself accordingly.
Google and its Use
The important thing to note is that because rapidshare doesn’t have a search engine or a searching facility you can still use other methods in order to search what rapidshare has on offer. Let’s say you wanted to find movies hosted on rapidshare. The first step would be to jump onto Google and search “site:rapidshare.com (insert movie name here)”. The first function, site:rapidshare.com, instructs Google to only search the rapidshare domain and server. Following that function you would then enter the name of the movie in which you want to download and watch. An example is as follows:
“Site:rapidshare.com Die Hard” – don’t use quotes.
Google is probably the best engine to serve this functionality; I wouldn’t recommend other search engines such as MSN or Yahoo as they don’t function as well. It’s not to say they don’t work, they just aren’t as effective as Google at finding suitable and desired results. Google is the best way in order to find rapidshare movies for example.
Rapidshare Forum
There is another method available to you which includes use of the rapidshare forum. The rapidshare forum will also provide you in most instances of popular rapidshare downloads and other rapidshare files. You can use it to find rapidshare movies and the like minded files. The rapidshare forum will also alert you to newly uploaded rapidshare files that you may like to download. All in all rapidshare is a great tool in which you can find your desired and wanted files!
