Searching with Adsense

[sd766]

This is a neat idea. I just joined myself so I don't know how well it works or pays yet but it sounds interesting and its free to join. So if you already have an adsense account why not.

Getting paid to search?! How is this possible??

In one word - AdSense. As you may already know, Google allows website owners to display a search box on their webpage which allows searching the web with Google. When a user clicks on an advertisement on the search results page, the website owner's AdSense account is credited. This is called AdSense for search.
To put it simply, GetPaid2Search.com
allows you to make money by signing up for AdSense and generating traffic to your search page. When an ad on that page is clicked, you'll get paid!
It's important to remember that although traffic is randomly spread across the network, members with more referrals and / or active members (those that use our search) will benefit from increased traffic to their search page (resulting in higher revenue potential).

Who do I get paid from?

You get paid from Google by signing up with their Google AdSense program.

It's not completely clear whether or not this site
violates the Google Adsense Program Policies,
although it would seem that it does.

On the other hand, seems
to be a form of "incentivized search".

You can read the Google Adsense Program Policies here:

Specifically these sections:

Invalid Clicks and Impressions

Clicks on Google ads must result from genuine user interest. Any method that artificially generates clicks or impressions on your Google ads is strictly prohibited. These prohibited methods include but are not limited to repeated manual clicks or impressions, using robots, automated click and impression generating tools, third-party services that generate clicks or impressions such as paid-to-click, paid-to-surf, autosurf, and click-exchange programs, or any deceptive software. Please note that clicking on your own ads for any reason is prohibited. Failure to comply with this policy may lead to your account being disabled.

Encouraging clicks

In order to ensure a good experience for users and advertisers, publishers may not request that users click the ads on their sites or rely on deceptive implementation methods to obtain clicks. Publishers participating in the AdSense program:

* May not encourage users to click the Google ads by using phrases such as "click the ads," "support us," "visit these links," or other similar language
* May not direct user attention to the ads via arrows or other graphical gimmicks
* May not place misleading images alongside individual ads
* May not promote sites displaying ads through unsolicited mass emails or unwanted advertisements on third-party websites
* May not compensate users for viewing ads or performing searches, or promise compensation to a third party for such behavior
* May not place misleading labels above Google ad units - for instance, ads may be labeled "Sponsored Links" but not "Favorite Sites"

The key phrases are:

"Genuine User Interest"

&

"Not limited to"
