How to Search for MP3 on Google

The reason why Google being one of the best search engine today is because of their smart robot that is programmed to crawl and index tons of pages together with their excellent algorithm in returning relevant search results to searchers. Googlebot is well known for indexing whatever it finds unless it is specifically blocked using robots.txt or the meta noindex tag on the webpage. Even though Google.com only shows a box where you can type the keywords that you want to search and Google will try its best to determine what are you looking for, you can actually use search operator commands to have more control over the results that will be displayed on your browser.

The search commands are definitely useful especially if you’re trying to check the linkbacks to your website, to have an idea if Google has completely removed a website from their search engine probably due to violation of their guidelines and etc. It can get a little dangerous because a specially crafted search command would reveal a list of websites with live streaming webcam, serial numbers or even password files.

In this article we will show you a few methods on how to easily search for MP3 since the Gnutella network is pretty much dead after LimeWire being shut down and FrostWire became a BitTorrent client.

3. Search MP3 Command

If you’re not a fan of using third party services of software and would prefer to do it yourself, here is the simple command to search MP3 in Google.

?intitle:index.of? mp3 ***

Use the command above and replace the *** with the artist or song title that you want to search. A list of results will be displayed which you can access and directly download the MP3. Basically this search string looks for files on unprotected directory.

All 3 methods above should be able to easily help you find the MP3 files that you want to download for free without any hassle. Most of the time the search results are very accurate because if the files are removed or temporarily unavailable, Google is pretty good in detecting it and will not show it in their top results.
