PAY TO SEARCH sites

[maplaver]

If you're interested in some extra cash for something you already do, I recommend MYSEARCH FUNDS which recently changed its name to HOMEPAGES FRIENDS due to its recent deal with YAHOO.

Who are HomePages Friends?
We are a privately owned commercial organisation called Homepages Friends Ltd. registered in England & Wales:

We are a wholly owned subsidiary of a privately owned company White Box Holdings Ltd, a web marketing company formed in 2004.

What is the company's background?
Initially White Box Holdings Ltd helped charities sell items on eBay but like any good company its services evolved by listening to and continuing to listen to, its clients' needs.

The White Box service evolved into helping any 3rd sector organisation or fundraising organisation to raise money online. Vine was developed to extend these services further into the private and public sector.

Via our agreements with a number of well known internet services such as Yahoo! & eBay, we enable fundraising organisations to obtain a share of the advertising revenue generated when these services are used.

At the heart of our corporate strategy is our commitment to assisting organisations and individuals take advantage of the many opportunities the internet brings to online income generation and to assist them in the achievement of their fund raising goals.

Through a thorough understanding of the goals and objectives of our clients online fundraising activities we will, in partnership, develop relevant and dedicated internet services that fully support our clients objectives.

For the individual seeking to raise personal funds we have developed the Homepages Friends service as a clear and effective method.


DO NOT JOIN THE FOLLOWING SCAM PAY TO SEARCH SITES:

Lucky Search
Surf Junky
Slash My Search


I tried LUCKY SEARCH for a month and earn/won nothing.
And in my research, SURF JUNKY and SLASHMYSEARCH turned out to be scam sites.

[schneiderman]

really starting to research these types of sites in addition to the pay to post or blog sites. Its my initial impression that you dont make really good cash unless you gets a bunch of referrals. I am hesitant to do that because it seems like a pyramid scheme. Anybody have any input on these different ways to make money???

My Home Pages (http://www.myhpf.co.uk/apply001.asp)

Are you sure it's completely free?

Yes! - the service is totally FREE. We charge you nothing to use our service as we split the revenue generated on bonafide searches with you 50/50 .

How do I get paid?

Sign in to your account and tell us how you want to be paid: either into your bank account or via PayPal. We pay you every 30 days, 45 days after each month end. e.g. For searches in January we pay you in mid March. There is a £20 minimum payment, so if you have not reached this amount in any month we will hold the payment over to the next month.

Do I need a certain browser?

The service currently works on Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 7 ( IE7) and Mozilla/ Firefox browsers. If you do not have the supported browsers and if you wish to update your browser you can download versions as follows:

Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/ie/getitnow.mspx?wt_svl=20510a&mg_id=20510b)

Mozilla Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/)

How much can I earn?

How much money received clearly depends upon how much you use the service for your typical day to day Internet searches. Based upon our experience to date we estimate that the average user regularly searching the internet could readily raise in excess of £50 per year. If you want to see how you can really start to earn for yourself by referring your friends and family, click here for more information. It's important that you don't post unsolicited emails or web advertisements; if we get complaints we may have to disallow searches and/or terminate your account. Remember it's all completely free all you need to do is sign up, start searching and tell your friends!

Do I have to change how I search?

No! Apart from anything else, the beauty of our service is that you are doing precisely what you already do - search the internet in the normal way (ie no repetitive searching or anything which could be construed by homepages-friends.com or our affiliate partners as deliberate attempts to generate revenue without regard to the results being returned) - but now you earn for FREE by using us as your search provider! The search results you will see are just the same as they would be by accessing the search engine from any other location.

I already use another search engine, are your search results as good?

Opinions on search engine providers are clearly subjective, but we beleive that YAHOO! provides extremely high quality search results that compare favourably with the available competition.

I run Microsoft Windows Vista, will it work?

YES! Vista comes with Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 already built in.

I don't think I'll need referrals for the search engine because that is something I do daily.
I put it as my DEFAULT search engine so I don't forget to use it ;)

I think that the ones that won't make you money unless you have referrals are the PAY TO CLICK sites.
I'm just starting with those!!!

I used to do pretty well yrs ago @ netflip and search cactus, but thats back when you could earn points @ freeride that you could redeem for a reloadable gas card.

I already use Yahoo as my search engine. Would it be to my benefit to sign up for this site?

Sure! u would get paid for something u already do... I personally don't like YAHOO results... Google is just so much better for me ;)

[KENDIKONG]

I like using Swagbucks, which is another pay to search site.

I earned $45 in amazon gift card so far in 3 months. $20 of it is from referrals.

i unsubscribed... my searches were not being counted and i was making no money :mad: now im staying w/ the MYPOINTS search toolbar!

[A2JC4life]

I like Swagbucks. It uses Google search results, so the results are decent. And they have a Firefox plugin, so I can search from my toolbar. I had tried other paid-to-search engines in the past and didn't like them, but I like this one a lot. I don't make huge money, but, hey, I'd be searching anyway. ;)
