Recently, there's been a lot talk about kooday.com and you can probably see other posts I've started about the site and how to earn money. I do recommend visiting my blog located on my profile for more information or my other discussions.
One of the biggest problems are skeptic feelings was that there are many people linking their sites to unrelated key words. This bothered me and others and I decided to find out how Kooday.com was to combat this.
I messaged them and received an email within the same day from the admin explaining that once the search engine was released from beta phase, the web crawlers would automatically search these auto and delete them so only relevant results will show up on searches.
This makes me put much more faith in the site and removes even more skeptic feelings, I now feel completely that this site will be a promising search engine and will deliver great results to advertisers, users, and searchers. Can't wait to receive my profit sharing credits today, I have 503 of them.

Even if he is really doing that much to get referrals, what's the problem with that?
As long as what he is saying is true, maybe he is fooled by the official of kooday, but I think there is nothing wrong to tell everybody about that fact. If you don't trust Kooday, just don't join. I think there is nothing wrong to tell everybody what's new about Kooday. After all, he is not even referring people to his profile.

@sn_2818184:
I don't think you know the context around my post. I am not attacking ElscottHavoc, I am just jealous and happy for him/her. No need to counter-attack. ;-)
Besides that i have already joined kooday myself. Have written over 20 articles and yet only 2 referrals. ;-)
@elscotthavoc: I am glad you're doing so great. Hopefully my SEO efforts will also bring in some referrals. :)

And don't be disouraged, while my blog traffic has increased, my kooday referrals are slow. I believe I've mentioned this before, but I only now have 3 kooday referrals, but my actual referral link views are in the 60s. That means people are interested in the articles and kooday, but once they reach kooday the either don't want to participate or they come back later and join up without using my referral.
Most likely, this is attributed to skeptic feelings about the site, which is understandable at this phase. So, if I can promote the site and meanwhile give feedback on issues that worry people, that will help. Plus our discussions will become visible on search engines so when the site does end up launching, people will search for how it works and end up here.

well, it's always nice to hear that a site cares about the members!
I hope I'll earn a lot from Kooday!!!
BTW, will they convert the credits today? or why did you say, that you can't wait to receive your credits today?
have a nice day!

According to the "about" page on kooday, the next profit sharing credit payout is Aug. 5, 2010 and that's today. The last profit sharing amounts were .006 per credit, but I'm under the assumption this will be lower as there is constantly more users sharing roughly the same total amount. That is to say if Kooday made enough last time to pay .006 to each member, if they have the same amount and double the members they can pay .003. This may or may not be fact, but I'm curious to find out.
I'm not sure what time today those payouts will happen, or how long the processing will take, but that's all I can give. I suppose as far as the admins reply, I believe the site as trek paid (their other site) was legit and I think the admin has at least put thought into this issue and has strong goals for the site.
I was replied to onanother issue by a moderator I guess, so it was interesting that question prompted the admins reply.
