Find almost any kind of Ebook or File Online

25. Apr 2007 | 12 Comments

Here’s a quick tip that I use to find almost anything online. I mostly use it for books & reading material for projects however it can be expanded to look for anything.

“insert book name here” last modified pdf “index of” -html -htm -php -asp

So for example lets see if we can find a few ebooks:

“day job killer” last modified pdf “index of” -html -htm -php -asp

Returns this result

“guruslayer” last modified pdf “index of” -html -htm -php -asp

Returns this result

You get the idea. Maybe the guys over at Wickedfire could use this technique to take more “Ebook Gurus” down

These kinds of searches are good to run against your own site as well to see that you are not vulnerable.

Also to identify who has your products out in the open.

I second that. Although whenever I see something sellin for something with a nine and a seven in it ($79/$97/$997) i get chills… Massive

hopefully more people will do this for the guy who made that crap product selling GoogleAdsfor Free that’s hitting the inboxes these days. Most of us know you can make your adwords costs back by making money with adsense. I can’t believe how popular such a hyped crap book got.

This is quite a useful tool I must say. I hope to use this technique more in the future…
