The Secret to Search & Win

Search & WinNo idea of what to search? Or what you can search?

I wrote this information out for a reader who was confused about what she could search for on Swagbucks - and thought it might help some other newbies here:

(NOTE - these ideas can be used for any of the Search & Win sites, not just Swagbucks)

♦ Need to go shopping? Search the store name or how to get there. Search the product(s) you are going to buy.

♦ Search while doing crosswords, word puzzles, trivia questions, to win a bet.

♦ Search that weird, funny, stupid, maddening things your husband, child, friend said to you.

♦ Search the make and model of your car, fridge, stove, computer, bicycle. Search how to take care of or repair these things.

♦ Search for information about the breed of your pets. How to house-train, what food they like. How to agility train them.

♦ Search your name. Your friend's name. Your pet's name. The name of your future children - or grandchildren.

♦ Search a word you heard and don't know the meaning of. Search a word to figure out how to spell it. Make up a word and search it.

♦ Search your favourite TV show - a movie you want to watch - an actor/actress - a book - music or bands.

♦ Search weird, bizarre and ordinary holidays - and what they mean.

♦ Search your favourite forums and discussion boards before you go there.

♦ Search what created the universe - when dinosaurs lived - or why the sky is blue.

♦ Search passages from your favourite book - or the bible - or lyrics from a song.

♦ Search every site you normally go to instead of going straight there - Search for Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, Hotmail, Gmail, etc.

♦ Search for Youtube videos, images, what your dreams mean, and news headlines.

♦ Search why your dog dumps his food - or has to circle three times before he lays down. Why babies cry? When do children potty train? What are the "Mommy Wars"?

♦ Search acronyms, abbreviations, letters used to mean something online - like BBL, FTP, TTYL, IMY, FWIW, or SITREP.

♦ Search error messages you get on your computer - or on a webpage.

♦ Search recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Search the ingredients - or the nutritional value.

♦ Search for the best prices of that new thing you are thinking of buying.

♦ Search for famous people, moments in history and movie stars - fan pages, news reports, forums and Facebook and Twitter accounts.

♦ Copy a few words from the webpage, email, even search results you have open and search for that!

♦ Search the clues and answer to the Swagcode, Treasure Code or ZB code - and you might get extra points!

♦ Search for one word, like apples, and the first search result is "Official Apple Store" - copy and paste that into the search engine and search that. The first search result of that search is "Build a Website Store" - copy and paste that into the search engine and search that. The first search result of that search is "Easy Online Store Builder" - copy and paste that into the search engine and search that. Repeat till you win!

Hope that helps! Any word you type into the search line works.
