Hi, In my pursuit to earn money online, I came across Homepages friend as another way to earn money online. In My Homepage, you just have to use it as your search engine and is powered by Yahoo search engine. However, you have to reach $20 before you can ask for payout which is very hard to earned. Also, I am not sure if this is another online scam or not. If, you guys have an y experience with homepage friends, please share. thanks.

Likewise Jhelai. I still use homepagesfriends from time to time but not that consistent unlike what I am doing here in Mylot. Maybe because earning there is to hard. I mean, you'll never know which searches are valid and which are not. :)Also, sometimes, I don't even know what to search anymore. lol

I was a member of Homepages Friends but shortly after I joined I could no longer earn through searches because they setup restrictions for certain countries. Mine, the US, was one of them. That was incredibly disappointing.

Yeah, I have heard that Homepages Friends is not applicable in US. :( But on the other side, rejoice as the restriction occurs not long after you joined. It is hurtful if it happens when you are already near the minimum payout. :)

wow, sound interesting but $20 and i heard someone who responded here said 4 search for 0.04cents? that's mean 0.01cent per search? $20 is a lot and might be take me forever to reach to payout. If you got their payment, please inform me cuz i would love to try.

Unfortunately, based from the feedback I received in this post, I won't continue using my Homepage Friends anymore so I won't be able to update you whether I will receive payment or what. :) Besides, quota is indeed a lot. WOuld take time to achieve.

Hi chikadee... I'm currently using Homepages friend and I've been a member for a year but I'm still way off the minimum amount for payout. I did notice though that they pay slightly higher last year. Because I only needed to search for a few topics and my earnings are fair enough for those number of searches. But now, even 30 searches for a day earns so little. Then, when I became a member of PickJack, I used that site to search for the correct answers. Unfortunately, I got an email from the site's adminstrators that they have no choice but to terminate my account if I continue to make searches like that. From what I understand is that, I can't make so many searches in a day... So, I don't know when I'll be reaching payout. And if I did I'm not even sure if I'll get paid.

Member for a year? I never realized that reaching their minimum payout could be that long. And you're still behind the payout, right? Do you think it is still worth your time considering you are not even sure if you will be paid? I stop using Homepages for a while as I saw a lot of conversation that they pay some and they don't pay others. I also saw some concerns that payment took so long.

I am a member of homepage friends. I joined them more than a year back. The increase in earnings is very slow, probably because I did not do much searches. And now, I have not been using it for a couple of months. Up to date, I am still so far away from their minimum payout amount. Hence, have not received any payment from them, not too sure if they are legitimate.

Thank you. :) ALthough I stop using it already as there are a lot of people saying that they do not pay all their members. Only some. I am not sure if that is true but I would prefer to concentrate my time and effort in paying sites like MyLot. :)

I am a member of Homepages friends for nearly a year now but i haven't yet reach payout because i am not that active. There are times i lost interest whenever i read negative feedbacks but whenever i heard good things i tried using it to search but eventually became inactive again. Well i really hope that homepage friends is genuine so it will not be a waste of my time being there. I will try to search there once in a while and hoping to reach payout and prove it myself if they do really pay its members. Goodluck to all of us. have a nice day!

I joined the program, and I used it's search engine, and have reached the EU$20 earning too. I am still waiting to be paid. So, far nothing. I am not sure if this is just a procedural delay or a scam !

I've tried that site and I earned 0.84 pounds, but I stopped earning there because it took sooo long to reach minimum payment. Well, you can tell your friends to use your homepage to search so you have many searches. Hehehehe

I heard about the site. From what I understand its a legitimate site based in UK. I have heard from some forums that they do pay. Though it would take time to reach payout but obviously they are a good paying site. I have tried it but have not continued since I barely have time to go online most of the time. When I am online, I am also spending much of my time here in mylot.

I am the member of this site 4 or 5 months back and i am having around 10 pounds in my account but i am not using this service now as they withdrew their service to my country. But as they are providing service to your country you MAY get paid by them and also you may need to send so many reminders to them to get your payment and also it is not sure.
