Are there any other niche/specialty search engines?

I'd like to compile a list of niche or specialty search engines, for instance search engines that only show results for recipes, game related posts or just SEO. Does anyone know of search engines that only feature specialized results?

I personally use only 3 search engines, 2 of them, from time to time. Google, Yahoo and Bing. Why would I need a niche based search engine when I can find almost everything on this 3 search engines.


For any number of reasons. For instance, some search engines focus on niches like recipes or medical topics. Just depends on how specific you want to get.

Some useful links to alternate search engines.

The search engine launched in late 2011 was called WireDoo.

This is the only link i could find from the LA Times

http://wiredoo.com/

But the site doesn't seem to be working now.

It was supposed to be an innovative way to search, focused on deep search and relational topics. Guess it was an idea ahead of it's time.

He seemed to have very good intentions with this new search engine. But good intentions are not good enough when going up against Google.

+1 for filecrop.

To addon you can make google a niche based search engine by using operators. For example, if I want to search files over web then I would search a file on google with file as prefix Are there any other niche/specialty search engines?

The first search engine I ever used in the 90's was Internet Explorer which was built in Windows 95. Well it wasn't that good but it's the only one I knew off back then. Nowadays it's Google chrome for me and like billions of people .

Pardon me for this comment but this is the first time that I’ve heard of specialty search engines. Are the results of that specialty search engines much different than the results of the major search engines namely Google, Yahoo and Bing? This makes me think of the purpose of such search engines when we can also get the information by using the “ordinary” search engines like the top 3 that I had mentioned.
