“The future is already here – it’s just not very evenly distributed”, William Gibson
The advantages of using them are that they are easy to set up, and once set up need no further maintenance. It does not cost you or your supporters anything to use.
The money generated is not huge, about 1p per search, but it costs nothing to do.
The search engines tend not to be as powerful as Google and some other large engines. But it is easy enough to run an initial search with one and then switch to another. Some of the search engine providers will allow you to create your own basic web page (as above).
There are search engines that distribute the profit they make from advertising to the organisations registered with them. Every time a supporter runs a search you get money!
