I did 16 searches, and only got $0.04, LOL. My searches were totally valid, in my opinion, because I was actually searching. I have no idea what qualifies as a 'valid search.'  :dontknow:

I didn't even know there was a paid to search here!  Where is it?  How much can you make?

Download the new toolbar and search through it. I believe it is 5 cents for every valid search. It has been working for me just fine... hope it continues to.

Paid to search is new on the upgraded FC toolbar.  FC members, download the new FC toolbar and start getting paid to search now.

That is the ratio-- you get 1c for each four searches.  All four searches have to be valid to get the 1c.  You can get up to 5c/day (20 valid searches), even if some of your attempts are rejected.

 ??? I did 7 searches and got 1c. Who decides and how what a 'valid' search is. If I do a search and then click on the search result to go to the site or info I have searched for, it seems to me that would be a 'valid' search. I am not playing around, I am actually searching.

Nothing I search for is crediting, and they are valid searches. I have tried everything even unistalling/reinstalling the toolbar. I think there is a glitch of some sort. It worked the first day and nothing since.
