Scour Search Engine – Get Paid to Search

This is off the topic of Internet Marketing, but it is about making money, which, I think is the reason we are all here.

I recently saw a post on my friend Tara’s Work at Home Mom blog about a new search engine that pays you to search, so I joined.

Scour is a social search engine and you get points to search, vote for websites and leave comments for websites within search results. Once you reach a certain amount points, you can trade them in for a Visa Gift Card.

I have only used it for a couple of days, and I quickly accumulated lots of points, you don’t realize how many times you search the web in one day until you see the calculations in front of you. Also, the voting and commenting is quick and simple, you don’t even leave the search page!

Scour provides plug-ins for your toobar so you can easily set it and forget it. Also, Scour shows the rankings of each website in search results for Google, Yahoo and MSN, and also allows you to sort results by those SE’s rankings.

What was really fun for me is seeing this blog come up on page one in Scour with tons of competition, WITHOUT quotes! Considering this blog is so new that was really cool!

Scour is still in Beta, so there are some bugs, but, as long as you are searching anyway, why not make some money?

Check out Scour!
