Microsoft Pays You to Use Their Search Stephen Fung March 18, 2007 Microsoft is asking large corporations with lots of computers to encourage their employees to drop the other search engines. They are accomplishing this with…what else…MONEY! Microsoft is offering large enterprise customers free service and credits that can be redeemed for products and training if they push Live search inside their companies. Companies can get a $25,000 enrollment credit plus anywhere from $2 to $10 per computer annually, which can add up to a lot for companies with thousands of computers. In an example given on a Powerpoint presentation that Battelle partially republished, a company with 10,000 PCs and high Web searching could earn $120,000 and one with 50,000 PCs and medium Web searching could earn $200,000.
