I’ve been using for sometimes now a new search engine called Scour. In fact it’s a metasearch engine combining the three most used search engines: Google, Yahoo and Live/MSN Search into a single aggregated search page with social concepts. With Scour, all three engines are searched all at once for you, with the results returned quickly on one page. The speed and quality of results are outstanding! In fact better then any of the 3 major engines alone. You need to try it.

Not only the results are great but Scour rewards users with a point for each unique search conducted through the Scour Toolbar or at the website, as well as for commenting or rating a result. Points can also be acquired through use of its affiliate program, with a matching 25% commission given to the host of the referral. Once users have accumulated a certain amount of points they can be redeemed for a Visa gift card or PayPal money transfer. You get paid to search the web!

Scour sample search

Every Scour member is able to vote each listing up or down based on its relevance to their keyword as well as comment on their experiences with the site. It’s working to evolve search and deliver a much greater value to the User.

Also for the next 3 months, Scour is going to give away $1,000 to one lucky user each month. That’s right, 1 Scour user will receive $1,000 for searching on Scour. All you have to do is conduct your normal searches and Scour will award you with 1 Scour entry per search.
