1 Estimated results. Fifty percent of the revenue generated from advertisers on GoodSearch is shared with the charity, school or nonprofit organization of your choosing. We estimate that each Web search will generate approximately $0.01 (image, video, Yellow Pages, and site-specific searches are not included). In fiscal 2006, 2007 and 2008 (October through September), each search actually earned 1.3 cents. However, with the soft economy and falling advertising rates in 2009, we expect this number to be lower. 2 Updated weekly. The data from GoodSearch is calculated in real time, while the GoodShop shopping data is posted weekly. GoodShop donations may also be delayed in posting as our retailers can take up to eight weeks to report sales back to us. Also, you may notice a change in the totals due to returned merchandise or cancelled orders.
