Get paid to use Yahoo Search Engine!

Wow, well I knew one of these days that I'm come across a good money maker that I'd missed. Well this is that moment.

Rather tragically, I came across MySearchFunds.com some years back and ignored it (I forget why, but I wasn't on my quest for money making ideas back then).

Well MySearchFunds.com, which has now changed its name to Homepage Friends (a rather naff name change if you ask me), pays you to search the web. This used to be through Google, but they have recently switched over to Yahoo as their search provider. But nothing really changes.

You goto your search page (set as your homepage for ease) e.g. mine is:
http://www.myhpf.co.uk/mypage.asp?OrgID=87564
All the then have to do is use the search box to search with Yahoo. The results are no different to Yahoo's normal results, and you end up with about 2.4p (that's about $0.048) per search.

At the rate I'm going, I'll have about £250 ($500) this year from the site... that makes my quest for a few dollars here and there and lot easier!

One key point here... in my experience it seems you only get the credit for searching from your official page. So if you want to search again, go back to the homepage, don't use the box on the results page, as this doesn't appear to credit your account for the additional search!

UPDATE:
Since this post was written, this service has been replaced by Search Lotto. Search Lotto offers free UK National Lottery, or EuroMillions lottery tickets for searches that use the Yahoo engine. This means you have the chance of winning millions of pounds just by changing the default search engine you use.

Investing nothing to get something

If its ok with you, I might just share a new challenge I'm putting on myself. I've got a small amount invested at http://passiveprofits.net/ . Darwin, the Admin at Passive Profits, is a really decent chap, very honest and hard working. This said, the HYIP market that he uses to make his community money, is all over the place at the moment, so my $55 isn't growing much! But that's no problem, this is "fun money", I'm investing for enjoyment here, not need. So the latest challenge....as the title may suggest, I'm going to make something (equal to my input into Passive Profits...so $55) out of nothing...zip....zero...$0. Well, it's all for fun, so I'm once again going to be putting my money into the HYIP world...and frankly may well never see it again...but hey! This is for fun! Oh, that little bit about starting with zero....that's right....I'm going to make my money from these silly sites that give you free money for surveys, registratio

Bitcoin faucet - Cointiply review

Well I didn't think I'd be back here talking about faucets! For those who don't know, a Bitcoin faucet is a site that gives away free Bitcoins (or fractions there of!). The catch is usually lots of adverts, and a time limit on how often you can "claim". So why am I writing about faucets again? Well I'm out of work at the moment, and have been clicking around, and rejecting a lot of naff sites... but then I came across Cointiply , and liked it. What Cointiply offers You need to register (I don't normally go in for that, but the reviews show a long paying out site) It pays all games/features out as "Coins" in your site wallet. 1 coin is one USD cent such that the amount of Bitcoin (BTC) you'll get on payout will be based on the exchange rate at the time. This protects you from falls in the value of Bitcoin until you're ready to cashout. Cashout is from $3.50. I've got to $1 within an afternoon of clicking in the backgrou
