  • HomepagesFriends to stop paying (official)

    Back in February I wrote that the promising service Homepages Friends (formally MySearchFunds) had stopped paying out, (wel, they seemed to have stopped paying me anyway). Any members will have seen the emails they sent recently. The first one seemed to give you the option of paying your earnings to a charity instead and the […]

  • Homepages Friends pays

    Just a quick post to announce that My Homepages Friends which I’ve blogged about in the past (previously known as Mysearchfunds) really does pay. I got a payment for £31.53 into my account today. That’s for 3 months of searches. I assume it includes some income from people I’ve referred, because otherwise it doesn’t add […]

  • My Search Funds has become Homepages Friends

    I wrote last Tuesday that My Search Funds (the site that pays you for your web searches) was to become Homepages Friends. This change took place yesterday. The biggest change is that Yahoo is now used for the searches. I haven’t done enough searches to be able to judge the quality of the results, but […]

  • My Search Funds – Get Paid to use Google!?

    I’ve been using My Search Funds (the site that pays you to search) for a little while now. Up to now they have used Ask.com to provide the search results. I was surprised today to find a Google results page when I searched. I thought I had selected the wrong search engine, but I checked, […]

  • Yuwie – One Month In

    For those who don’t know, Yuwie is a new(ish) social networking site which shares a percentage of their ad revenue with its users. Sounds good in theory, so I thought I’d give it a try. Yuwie seems to be based on the MySpace model, with each use having a profile, a photo gallery, a blog […]

  • Get paid to search!

    There are loads of cashback sites around these days, offering money for doing things like completing surveys, shopping, or social networking, but this is a new one on me: My Search Funds pays you to search the web! it uses Ask as its search engine, which seems pretty good (although I have to admit I […]
