    Scour is now paying people to search the web. Search results are fetched from Google, Yahoo and MSN. I tried the search engines with many different searches and it returned the results what other search engine returns.

    How Do You Make Money?
    You make money for:

    * Joining - 150 points
    * Invite friends - 250 points
    * Searching - 1 point
    * Every vote on search - 2 points
    * Every comment on search - 3 points

    http://scour.com

    All the addition of points are in real time and you can see them accumulating. When you reach 6500 points you can exchange them with $25 gift visa credit card. Or, when you reach 12,500 points, you can exchange them with $50 visa credit card. Similary, 25,000 points for $100 visa card.

    You can also refer friends and earn 25% of what they earn. That is really good affiliate program I would say.

    So does this Scour actually pay? To be frank, I don’t know. I joined them recently. But the site looks professional. I will surely try them. There is no harm in trying. I think you should also give them a try. There is a cashout option in the control panel. I will try cashing after I make total of 6500 points. Then I will write a detailed review on the site.

    SCOUR isn't good, you know the points stuff... I prefer to see the $$$$

    The Search Box that I am using tells me how much I am earning + 3 levels, its not points and 6500 is too much for a $25 gift card, hard to get it.

    Using SCOUR you earn 1 point for each search, so you will need 6500 searches LOL to get the $25...
    Now using my search box if I do 6500 searches x $0.02 = $130 OR you just need 1250 searches to get the $25, its 40 searches a day only!

    P.S = I am not trying to promote it here, I am just showing the differences. SCOUR IS BAD.

    Take care.

    Posting rules state no posting affiliate links in main post....

    I find paid to search schemes are usually all scams and the pay isn't worth the effort, with some real affiliate marketing you could make more in a day than you could make in a month with paid to search schemes.

    Yeah I agree that its not worth it to put effort like to promote it, spend time etc but like..I do lots of searches daily so basically nothing will change for me you know. Of course that by promoting just 1 program that pays just $1 or $2 per lead you can make a lot more....:p
