This is nice so instead of google,  you can use their site to earn some tokens. But they should lower the min threshold of withdrawal because at their current rate of 8 tokens/day, you will earn those 1k tokens for about 125 days or more than 4 months, considering that you are always maximizing their allotment per day. Just sign up coz I'm online everyday and doing searches in google. So might as well use their platform and earn their tokens.  Wink But hopefully, the dev team will lower their min withdrawal.

Yes, I think that's good idea, I hope they will listen to it and can make the threshold smaller (i.e. 500 or even 200 tokens)


That would be nice.
On the other hand, I guess that the reason for not doing that until now is that they try to keep the transaction fees (gas) to a minimum by having a higher threshold for withdrawals.

I have tried preserach as default search engine in my browser. Image search is too specific, only displays images without able to access or view pages on the website, so it's just like an imgur link.
I get 0.25 PRE tokens for each search, but it seems reward for serching is limited in a day. Hopefully you add more features like Google Serach.

Yes, the reward is limited per 8 tokens a day
You can read my article and you will know more details)

Presearch – crypto-Google alternative




Google as the company started as a search engine. Even now when Google has multiple products and divisions, the search engine element is one of the most well-known, used, and profitable (Google Adwords generate huge amounts of revenue). The word «google» itself became the synonym for «search». I remember the days of Altavista and Yahoo, but I understand that most people can’t even imagine the internet without Google.

For many years Google has a monopoly in web search, but of course, there are alternatives. Presearch – is crypto-alternative, which I personally use for many months.

Presearch gives the possibility for users to monetize their searches. After registration and setting up Presearch as your search engine, you will be receiving 0.25 PRE tokens for each search.

Presearch had some nice spikes in price in the last 3 months despite the bear market.
From $0.003 to around $0.05, currently sitting around $0.02.

I received my withdrawal from Presearch last month.
But it's not worth much, maybe I'll use the tokens for some advertising.

Thanks for sharing, Warfare! And for using Presearch!

The new keyword staking platform is coming in January, so holding onto them to stake a keyword for advertising, or waiting until we've closed the token demand loop should provide the best value for your effort.

All the best in 2020! Happy New Year!

I am been using Presearch since July 2018, have accumulated many PRE tokens, satisfied with the service + all improvements.
Question:
Are we soon to witness mass adoption of Pre search engine?

Hey yanika1!

Glad to hear things are working for you. We have a bunch of improvements in store, and we're close to removing some bottlenecks that will enable us to really grow.

We're already more than 1.25m registered users and 11m visits per month:

https://www.similarweb.com/website/presearch.org

We really haven't even begun active marketing yet - it's all based on our referral program - because we haven't officially launched our own actual search engine and made it default yet.

This is because we have been paying $7.50 per 1,000 queries to run https://engine.presearch.org. We are days away from implementing a new cost-free search feed that will also enable us to generate fiat revenue on top of our token-denominated revenue using backfill ad inventory.

That will then enable us to open it up so everyone can use Presearch without logging in. You'll still need to sign in to earn tokens, but it won't be a requirement.

And then we can start REALLY driving traffic to the platform. We have some pretty innovative ways to do this that we'll be revealing in the coming weeks.

This will coincide with the launch of a new ad platform that incorporates keyword staking.

Whoever stakes the most tokens to a given keyword or phrase will have their ad displayed. The actual traffic will be virtually free to start - likely for the first year.

We think this will drive some substantial demand for the token and really enable us to close the loop on the token ecosystem.

It's all coming together! Thanks for your support in the meantime!

Hey everyone!

Presearch was covered on ZDNet this week!

Love this line:

"If you would like to break Google's stranglehold on your search habits, you might want to have a look at a blockchain-based startup that aims to reward you for searching the web. "

Personally i see this people as doing some bullshit thing to me. I got my account demoted and I'm angry for one of the reasons they stated. All their reasons made sense but one doesn't to me: which is using the platform for the purpose of earning tokens

So what do they think?...like I'm using it for fun or what?? what at all do they do best?? nothing... it's not a search engine, it's not anything... just some portal that you use to visit a search engine lol....it's like saying you want to go to Google but will pass through presearch first....that's all they do and nothing more.

Anyways I'm a student and i only use the platform when I wanna do assignments and yes..i write down all my searches and so I'm nit using it for the beauty of it...other than that the platform is bullshit to me

if you want better user behavior, why don't you space out time of rewards??... please do something better heheee coz there's nothing unique about presearch...it's just a way used to reach a search engine...nothing more lol

Learn from how Pivot allocate rewards and checks spam..that's what we call user behavior control...and i repeat, no one is using this bullshit site for the beauty of it

Sorry for the poor experience, huhhuh18!

We are working to improve Presearch all the time, and feedback is what's driving our evolution. Appreciate you taking the time to vent and challenge us.

I've just made a post two messages above that will hopefully shed some light on things.

Regarding Presearch not being a real search engine, if you go into 'Customize' (https://www.presearch.org/account/homepage-providers), look for 'Presearch Engine' and add it to your providers. You can drag it to the left to make it your default engine.

Aside from that, the core Presearch.org model is a reward and incentivization layer and redirect engine that provides users with a federated query field they can use to type their searches and send them into the resource of their choice.

Many Members do actually appreciate this ability and use it to search not just public resources, but private resources such as company intranets, CRMs, point of sale systems, etc.

You can use our engine directly via https://engine.presearch.org if you'd prefer to just have a totally private search engine with no login. It's so basic, it doesn't even have terms or other info. It's basically a totally dumb terminal (no analytics, anything) that provides non-personalized search results.

It literally does not track a single thing and there are no ads at this time.
Thanks for the clarification and I'm sorry I was a bit harsh with my language earlier. I was furry because the system hasn't been fully upgrade to help promote good search behaviours. You know, we all have our search patterns so you should consider that as well. Anyways pertaining to your search engine, I think you should provide a feature that permits us to login so that we don't just use it in vain. By the way, good job done on your desktop extensions. It's awesome.

Thanks for the additional feedback and for your support. We'll do our best to keep improving the platform.
