Did you get hit by the latest Google purging? Per the Internet grapevine, it appears that many Internet Marketers were told by Google that if they want their ads to be displayed they'll have to pay 5 times, 10 times, or more what they were paying. Ouch! That must have hurt.

I do not use Adwords at the moment so I have felt none of the pain that reverberates through the ezine circuitry of the Web. But I have learned a valuable lesson from what others are saying. Actually, it is something we all know either from experience or from common sense: Don't put all your eggs into one basket. Diversify. There really are other PPC (Pay Per Click) search engines out there.

I found one today and I am blown away. If you haven't already, you really should check out Search Big Daddy, a search engine that is growiing by exponential numbers. If they haven't already noticed it, Google, MSN and Yahoo will soon feel the heat of this awesome competitor nipping at their heels.

SearchBigDaddy will soar to the top because of one unique feature: They pay YOU to search! This is one of the smartest things I've seen in regards to PPC advertising. Have you heard of such an idea? You get PAID to search! Wow.

What does this mean to you? Namely, if you're using Google Adwords or any form of PPC advertising, you really should take a look at Search Big Daddy because you get PAID for EVERY search you do! First of all they GIVE you $50 in advertising credits just for signing up with them. Then they offer you the ability to earn advertising credits or cash - depending on the program you choose to join. An, believe it or not, one of the programs is absolutely free and you STILL get the $50 advertising credit. Within an hour after I set up my account and put links on my website I had $80 in PPC credits. That's amazing.

Do you use the search engines a lot? I do. I do 10 - 50 searches every day mostly on Google. But, guess what? I'll be using SearchBigDaddy.com because THEY PAY ME to search. Oh Me, Oh My.

Well, don't take my word. Check them out for yourself and stop worrying about what Google will do next.
