Social Searcher

Social Searcher is a free social media search engine: type a term and see public posts, profiles, hashtags and images across social networks, with no account and no login. It advertises unlimited searches with no daily caps, no tracking, and supports exact phrases, exclusions and OR logic. For a quick check before a meeting, or to find out whether a term has any conversation volume at all before you build a monitoring case around it, that is genuinely useful and costs nothing. Understand what it is not, though. This is a lookup tool. Nothing here describes ongoing alerting, saved searches with history, or any workflow for more than one person — the things that turn a search box into a monitoring product. And the site does not name which networks it actually searches, which for a search tool is a meaningful omission: the source list is the product. Note also that its pricing pages now return 404 and the homepage advertises no paid plan at all, so what was once a freemium product currently presents as simply free.
