VeriPages.com - Just too good to be Yellow
VeriPages.com is a free networking and charitable fundraising community that looks like an online yellow pages except instead of showing you a list of businesses in the order of how much they paid for their listing, VeriPages.
com shows you a list of your friends that have a recommendation for you. You click on the name of the friend you trust most and a profile of the business they recommend pops up. Every time you do a search on VeriPages.com, a donation is made to charity. If you get good feedback from the businesses you find, additional donations go to your favorite charity and the favorite charity of your friend who recommended the business. Members who upgrade to paid memberships may opt to keep these extra proceeds for themselves or any of their favorite causes including political candidates. Members may also raise money by inviting others to join VeriPages for free. Commissions (of up to $500 for new business members) are triggered when those new members later upgrade and/or renew their memberships.
Veripages.com In their own words
"What is VeriPages? In a nutshell, VeriPages is a patent pending online networking community where if one member of the community helps another find a business, they may earn a commission on the fee we charge to the business. Members may keep their earnings or donate them to nonprofit organizations they support."
Why Veripages.com might be a killer
From the perspective of a searcher, it is almost universial advice that when hiring any business, the best first step is asking those you already know and trust, because opinions from strangers are almost always disguised advertisements. VeriPages makes it quick and easy to get these recommendations at any hour of the day and at the same time raise money for charity (or even yourself). From the perspective of the business members, word of mouth recommendations are like gold and far more valuable than attracting a new prospect that stumbled across your advertising. Plus, prospects have an extra incentive to use the business member's service since good feedback means donations to the prospect's favorite charity. From the perspective of fundraisers, VeriPages.com is the perfect tool. It's free for both the charities and their members and doesn't require them to do anything that they are probably not already doing.
