Make Searches Worthwhile with… Scour!

Ever get bored with searching? Well, make your searches worth something with Scour. Scour pays you points for using its search engine, which you can later redeem for visa cards ($25, $50, $100). Only 6,500 points are needed for the $25s. You might think this is a lot, but you get:

  • 1 point for every unique search


  • 2 points for a vote (You simply click thumbs up or thumbs down)


  • 3 points for a short comment!

You can get a maximum of 4 points per search. So if you searched, and then left a comment, that would be all you can earn for one search.
You also receive 25% of what your friends/referrals earn.

By the way, their search engine combines results from GOOGLE, YAHOO, and, MSN, so you get the top three search engines in one!

If your still suspicious on how long it will take to earn that $25, I did some math for you guys:

  • You need to earn about 17~18 points everyday in order to reach 6,500 points in 1 YEAR


  • You need to earn about 34~36 points everyday in order to reach 6,500 points in 6 MONTHS


  • You need to earn about 72~73 points everyday in order to reach 6,500 points in 3 MONTHS.


  • You need to earn about 216~217 points everyday in order to reach 6,500 points in 1 MONTH.


Again, this estimate is WITHOUT any referrals.
So why not give it a try, and earn something off your searches. Also,
you can read other people’s comments on different sites, which helps
sometimes.
Start Searching with a Purpose!
