generating revenue for your website or blog with contextual advertising
Sharogle beta was lauched on 29th May, the world’s first revenue sharing search engine based on Google Adsense for search.
Sharogle shares 50-percent of it’s search queries to its users. It is a simple and compelling concept. You use Sharogle exactly as you would use any other search engine and because it’s powered by Google you get the best search results. The best part is that it’s FREE!
So why is Sharogle search better to use?
Sharogle search gives the same results as Google so you know you are still getting the best results. The only twist is that when you use Sharogle you build up points which goes towards your Adsense rotation within the system.
The bottom line is that Sharogle doesn’t cost anything, you get an opportunity to earn money, you get proven search results and you don’t need to change anything you do. There’s absolutely no reason not to use Sharogle!
How do you make money?
When you use Sharogle you are not searching with your own Adsense ID. Random IDs except your own are rotated for each query. Members with the most points will enjoy a greater percentage of rotations. You will get paid from clicks produced by other members who used your ID during a search. A member will not know who own the ID, which is being used in a rotation. This is to protect the integrity of the system.
How do you get paid?
Because you are using your Adsense account you will be paid by Google. Sharogle itself does not write checks to you.

Isn’t that against google’s TOS?
users must only visit the pages based on their own interest.
Wouldn’t handing out points for searching be incentivizing the users to view the pages with adsense?
I donno, just seems kind of touchy to me.

Why would this be against Google’s TOS ?
There are sites like hubpages.com and others that give points for posting which will determine your share of your adsense revenues with them. Isn’t this more reason to induce clicks since all you have to do is get your friends to click on your ads? With sharogle it is not possible to do this.
What about http://www.blingo.com that uses google’s search where you can win gifts for searching? They have been around for a few years now and I don’t see them having any problems.
Also I’ve looked the sharogle site and I see a great idea that could be huge and I see no reason not to use it.

I dont know if it is against the TOS. But I know, that Google thinks it is against it:
I got a mail from Google telling me.
And that thats count.
