This seems like a good tool and seems it's getting me closer to my answers but I haven't had a chance to explore it yet. If you use this site, can you please explain how this data helps with your decisions? why and how (example please) does this data shape your buying or selling decisions?

Dividend is the distribution of a portion of the earnings of a company which is paid to the particular class of the shareholders. Dividend paid will include the payments which are made by the companies which are publicly-listed in the form of the reward to the investors for putting their money in the company.
