These Dividend Income Websites Are Worth Your Time

Looking for high dividend stocks? No need to do your own research. Leading dividend income websites provide a wealth of information as well as dividend stock and fund screening services — for free! Here are my five favorite websites to use for finding high dividend stocks and funds.

1. Dividend.com

Dividend.com has a corporate feel, but comes with some great free resources, including lists of pre-screened high dividend stocks, a dividend stock rating system, and investing videos, including a New to Dividend.com video to introduce you to the site. They also have premium membership features which allow you to create a dividend portfolio using their online tools.

I like their historical dividend data. It makes it easy to see how the right high dividend stock can be a great source of retirement income. For example check out the dividend payout history for Coca-Cola Co. More

2. Dividend Stocks Online

Dividend Stocks Online has a clean and simple feel to it. This site is easy to navigate, and it is super easy to find lists of high dividend stocks.

Of course, it also offers membership services for a monthly fee which gives you access to additional pre-screened high dividend stock lists. More

3. The Dividend Detective

The Dividend Detective has a more homey, local newspaper feel to it. Their home page lists free content separate from premium content, making it easy to tell what is what. This is a great feature!

The Dividend Detective’s free content includes information on preferred stocks, closed-end funds, REITs and Canadian stocks, as well as content on U.S. based high dividend stocks. More

4. Dividend Growth Investor

The Dividend Growth Investor says, I will share my journey with you on my quest for achieving an increasing dividend income stream from stocks with above average dividend growth, which consistently increase their distributions over time.

True to their word, this site offers insightful commentary and educational information (for free) on high dividend stocks; it is almost as if your college professor were right there to give you daily lessons on high dividend stock investing. More

5. Dividend Investor

They certainly have a lot of dividend data, and their quote page on their home screen is FANTASTIC. Their premium content is the most expensive out of the high dividend stock sites, but it may be worth it. More
