DatoRSS is a powerful RSS search engine to search RSS feeds. Here you can use it like other search engines such as Google or Bing, the only difference here is that here it brings you the website and RSS feed URLs matching the search keywords. It takes search terms from you and then pulls results from the RSS feeds of blogs, news websites for you. With this, you can discover new websites and blogs publishing some awesome top quality content related to sports, entertainment, medicines, etc.
Every time you search something using it, it returns you the best results with the feed rank parameter. In order to use it, you don’t have to sign up or something. You just use it like any search engine and get an RSS feed URL in return. If you still use RSS then you can add those feeds in your favorite RSS feed reader software or android app. For now, it doesn’t have a huge amount of data to show you results from but still, it works nicely.
