Looking for affiliation with a search engine...

    Hey all!
    I'm looking for affiliation with a search engine. I used to use google's custom search engine, tied with my adsense account. I sent them 20,000-30,000 search queries per day from my website (all from real users, all being real search queries). I made about $40 a day from this.

    However, google doesn't like my website. It could be classified (loosely) as a PTC, and that goes against google's TOS.

    So I am looking for affiliation with a search engine. I will get you about 50,000+ hits a day, and at least 20,000 search queries a day. Payment options would be discussed through paypal. A portal would be used, but displaying your ads (or we could negotiate keeping it on your page, but a little bit of tracking code would be needed).

    Alternatively... if someone is willing to sell me a working search engine script (perhaps similar to dogpile.com) that is not based off the old, discontinued google search api keys (nusoap), then contact me as well.

    So... anyone interested?
    (I'm pretty sure this is the right forum, if it's not, I apologize)

    Try one of this search engines that have affiliate programs:

    win4win.com
    canada44.ca
    genieknows.com
    mammamediasolutions.com
    seek99.com
    7search.com
    activsearch.com
    thesearcherz.com
    rsisearch.com
    yoomy.com - mobile phone se
    gozinta.com - you can have co-branded se with them
    smarterclickz.com
    fearsearch.com

    A lot of this SE affiliate programs can also give you co-branded site and xml data feed. You can find meny ppc se programs that you can use this se ppc for around 50$.

    If you don't like any of this you can try with smartppc softwear that is free (basic version) and you can start offering bids for clicks and keep all the money from clicks.

    I hope this can help you.

    He told you how he "makes business". He sends incentivized PTC fraud traffic to advertisers. And you don't care because he didn't send any to you. You're a great human being. Not.

    Attacking every one just because someone doesn't have 100% adsense tos traffic and calling me bad person, because I try to help, makes you a great person. Red reps tell me everything I need to know. Just to clear this... When I was posting the list of s.e. I didn't know what PTC (paid to click) is. I know better now.

    Good so now you know what PTC is. It's clickfraud. And yes, I attack people involved in clickfraud. By the way do you notice how the topicstarter clickfraud coward won't respond? Because he knows I called him out.

    I've emailed "traffic quality" (anti-clickfraud) teams of all the search engines you listed above with a link to this thread and some more info on this clickfraudster.

    *sighs*

    You crack me up. I seriously chuckled once or twice while reading through this thread.

    I haven't checked it out since my last post, months ago.

    I'm afraid you have some serious misconceptions about many things in life, bigdealio. I don't know why anyone would waste time calling people names or attacking others via the internet. At least do it in person (I'm sure there's at least one or two people on the street someone near you right now you can go yell at).

    Anyways... PixelHut, I appreciate your help. Generally speaking, PTC sites are indeed shady, and something to avoid. Incentive sites in general are pretty risky. I've been working to change that opinion with everyone that users my website, and have been very successful thus far.

    Thanks,
    Veritas

    Your attempt at belittling me is pathetic. Nothing changes the fact that PTC is fraud and that you're an operator of a fraudulent PTC. Don't choke on that chuckle.

    Well, some ptc sites are fraud and some are not. In case where ptc site owner pay visitors to click on some affiliate links, banners,... then that is a freud. But in many cases or even in most of them thing are different. In most ptc sites they get money from webmasters that want to buy traffic. They go to ptc site end they buy a pack of 1000, 2000, 3000,... click or views. And then visitors get paid every time they click/view one of this sponsored links. So in this cases this can't be fraud. It's a way to get really cheap traffic and a way to earn some cents for couple seconds of work.

    In this case the OP fraudster was looking for "an affiliation" with a PPC Search Engine. Which means he's trying to find someone he can send his fraud PTC traffic to. He already got canned by Google for sending fraud traffic. Read the thread.
