It can be tempting to hunt for dividend stocks based on their yields alone, but more often than not, a high yield can actually be a warning sign. That's because the best dividend-paying stocks not only offer investors income today, but also promise to greatly increase their payouts over time. The only way for a company to do that over the long term is to steadily grow profits.
