Every Click Pays

Search engines such as goodsearch and everyclick have ushered in new concept, namely sharing income earned from their search operations to charity. Goodsearch and everyclick donate 50 percent of its revenues to charities.

Now, there is a new entrant, Zotspot, the first search engine to pay its users in cash for their normal search behaviour. By using Zotspot as their primary search engine, users earn money and also have the option of allocating a portion of all of their earnings to one or more of their favourite charities or universities.

The rationale behind these efforts is that both search engines and online advertisers have made billions of dollers in revenue. But the users, without whom the whole exercise and busines model is flop, have been completely left out of this bounty.
