PRWeb (www.prweb.com) announced on January 4 that established to provide the simplest vehicle possible for people to generate funds for the Southeast Asian Earthquake/Tsunami relief effort, the pay-per-click search engine ReliefSearch.org (www.ReliefSearch.org) launched on January 4 with all proceeds going toward the cause. ReliefSearch.org earns revenues on a pay-per-click basis when users click on search results generated from the site. All click revenues generated from these searches will help fund the victims of the Earthquake/Tsunami disaster.
Benjamin Padnos, an Internet entrepreneur who launched the site, said that proceeds from users’ activities on ReliefSearch.org will help the cause, that users are encouraged to use the ReliefSearch.org search engine instead of Google or Yahoo, that the results are the same as Yahoo’s "Sponsored Results" so users will have an extremely similar experience that they’re used to, and that the goal is 1 million searches in the next 30 days. Padnos estimates each click is worth roughly 10-15 cents toward relief efforts.
