Yep, you can make some extra cash with searching with Yahoo search engine. Get yourself an account in Myhomepagesfriends and then do your searches through it and you will be able to earn for every search you perform there. The search result is the same as when you use Yahoo! as myhomepagesfriends has a tie up with Yahoo! to use Yahoo! search engine in their members' searches.

Can you make a decent amount of money with this? Or, do you end up making more money for the company that you are searching for as opposed to yourself? I use yahoo sometimes and would be into such an offer if it is 100% legit.

Wow! That's cool idea. How much have you earned? I'm very much excited to sign up. Because of economy crisis nowadays, I think everyone wants to earn extra bucks.

What is the minimum payout, and how long does it take to reach it?

I have found that many of these programs eat up more time than anything else, and users accumulate money at a rate equal to fractions of pennies.

From my own experience, those types of pay to search ventures have a tendency to not pay out or pay very little.

I remember when we were starting to make money nline, theer was search engine that we used that paid hefty and ontime.

I ave seen some of the ones that were questionable at the time (9 years ago) are doing well now. So it depends. One has a bar that you download. and for every ad you click you get paid. I prefer Mypoints for email clcik accumulation.

Remember Agloco?

They had lots of hype for months and months, convincing people to get sign ups. Then, their search bar was in "beta" for months. After all of that, the program folded and no one got paid a red cent.

Unless the income structure makes sense, any program making promises tro pay for surfing or searching should be considered questionable, IMHO.
