Earn Income from Web Searches
A partnership between WCVA and Whitebox allows members free Yahoo! internet search boxes that can be used to generate unrestricted income from web searches. Members can utilise this in three different ways:

• Add your own free branded search box to your website or intranet.
• Have a branded webpage supporters can save as a ‘favourite’ search engine or home page.
• Give supporters a simple branded search box that they can add to their web browsers at home or work.
• The technology behind the search box comes from Whitebox, but will look and work as part of your own site. Your supporters can add it to their own sites almost instantly and with very little effort; earning your organisation more income. The more people use your search boxes the more income they will generate for your organisation.
