Guruji.com Offers illegal Stuff – Download/Play Mp3 Songs
Guruji – A Website which claims to share knowledge and is the first crawler based search engine developed completely in India and designed to make search simple for Indian users. I was recently making a google search for a hindi movie review ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi where i found a sponsored ad which was for Guruji.com with the following Ad Details :
Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi Songs
Only on Guruji.com Music Search.
Type movie/singer name. Get Songs!
www.guruji.com
The Landing Page of this Ad was this
Iam sure even if its Google Search Engine or Yahoo Search, no one would directly offer Mp3 online with options like Listen to Mp3, Download Mp3 etc, but may be this specific search engine Guruji.com has got no fears in offering illegal version of these Mp3 songs. Even though the songs are not hosted with them, still its not fair to make the Mp3 directly available on a popular growing search engine and also promoting them through Google Adwords.
Generally these search engine gains should block access to these illegal Mp3 download/sharing files and try to avoid illegal music downloading and follow the music piracy laws, but these people are promoting illegal stuff for just gaining more users and expanding their brand.
Amit, If you know they have also started CPC Ad Network. And They only offer publisher account to illegal MP3 download sites!!

All search engines only aggregate relevant websites and point the user to the website that is most relevant. Guruji is doing exactly the same, aggregating relevant music websites and pointing the user to the source. There is nothing illegal in it. Google does exactly the same. Type “hindi song mp3″ in Goggle and see the list of websites. Amit Bhavani – it’s time you did some research before you write these half-baked blog posts. It’s not the search engine that needs to be stopped, it’s website with questionable content. Same is true if a user types “how to murder, how to kill”. Search engines only point to the source, they have no way to know if the source is questionable, all they know is, if the source is relevant to the user.

Amit, Point to be noted. Sam is partial right, Guruji is a Search Engine and like every SEs crawl the web, Guruji is also crawling websites.
But Sam this point should be noted also – Google(or other SE) is 99% automated and Guruji is totally manually SE as you can see Singer name and Movie name beside Songs name. I don’t think Guruji Bot can know this automatically. These stuff should be added manually. It means Guruji knows from where content is coming. And If Guruji want they can neglect these illegal stuff!!
