Does anyone know if you can use Amazon Mechanical Turk For Search Engine results?

Here's what I was thinking:
- Provide a search term or keyword.
- User searches that term or keyword on Google.
- Have the user find specific domains that are offered in the search results.
- Once they find one, open the page, scroll to the bottom, and look for a code.
- Enter that code back into turk, to confirm the task was completed.

I know you can run headless browsers, and rotate proxies, and such. But I want google to see actual users around the globe, with different pc's, different ip's, different languages, and more.
 
Pretty sure this already being done in turk. I would also suspect that the google algo is pretty adept at picking up users that perform lots of unrelated searches with no intent. I might be wrong though.

I can see the value of this though, which is why some traditional advertising is using the technique. You may have seen a TV ad that runs and then it just says "Search for XYZ". This is useful for SEO because the user already has the intent to go there and search.
 
It might be against the terms, but sign up to look at the jobs posted.
Probably the fastest way to learn black hat!

"Search for X, click next to page 3 click link, take screenshots tweet page. US accounts only " Etc...
