Self Promotion Offline Tip #19

One thing that I do love about freebie sites is that they do simply pay for my gifts to others which is really helpful for birthdays and Christmas. I can get myself a Nintendo Wii bundle without having to pay over $5! Wouldn't you want to do the same? You can do it too. Think about it, a Wii bundle on most sites requires about 10 referrals because bundles are about $500 and since you only have to complete one offer which can be as less as $1 and the rest is up to your referrals to complete. A Wii bundle for $1 sounds sweet doesn't it? But it's true! If you don't like obtaining referrals then you can always do a DIY site and complete 10 full credit offers yourself which can cost you as low as $10 which is still pretty sweet. Freebies are totally sweet!

Prepaid Credit Cards Are Not Allowed

In its earlier days, before all of the fraud occurrences, users were allowed to use prepaid credit cards to complete offers which was good for those that did not trust advertisers or incentive sites. Although incentive sites have no access to the information that you give to advertisers while completing their offers. Some users were using prepaid credit cards for safety while others were using prepaid credit cards to commit fraud and scam others. Due to the high number of fraud among prepaid credit card users, advertisers decided to not credit users that use prepaid credit cards to complete their offers so if you want to obtain your credit then you are now stuck with using a real credit card only. Although some advertisers may allow you to use Paypal but other than that, you have no other option anymore. This is a good reason why you should not commit fraud on freebie sites because you will ruin things for everyone including yourself because falsifying information may cause you not to receive your free gift!

How Do Freebie Sites Give Away Free Stuff?

Most freebie sites requires you to complete offers or refer others in order to receive your free gift and the reason for this is because advertisers do not want to pay an excessive amount of money broadcasting on TV when there is an alternative that is not only cheaper but to a target group. Advertisers will allow what we know as incentive sites to advertise to users by allowing users to sign up for their services and by signing up for their services, advertisers will pay the referring incentive site an commission for the referral in which will be used to pay for your free prize. Advertisers are happy, incentive site owners are happy, you the user will also be happy. Everyone gets paid. How much do referrals usually go for? Referral costs depends on the networks but generally a referral will earn you about $35 to $50 so referrals aren't cheap. If you don't like referring others then you can waste your time doing other free stuff like clicking on links for less than a penny a click. The choice is yours.

Get Credit

One of the many reason people think that freebie sites are a scam is because they do not receive credit for the offer that they complete. However, one of the many reasons why they do not receive credit is because they did not follow the right precautions. So here is a few tips you should follow if you wish to receive credit without any errors.

Get credit for your offers!

Here are tips on how to ensure yourself that you receive credit for offers you complete on any site. There are specific reasons why users don't receive credit so don't be one of them.

1: Before logging into any site, ALWAYS clear your cookies. This is the MAIN problem regarding not getting credit.

2: ALWAYS use Internet Explorer or Firefox. Other browsers have known issues with crediting.

3: ALWAYS make sure your cookies are on the lowest setting to accept them all.

4: DISABLE ANY antivirus, spyware, firewalls, or ad checking software. What a lot of people don't realize is any of these programs can either interfere with the cookies that make an offer track or they can block offer tracking in other ways.

If you do follow these tips and still do not receive credit in the mentioned timeframe then you can submit a support ticket to the site known as Manual Credit Report or MCR for short. In order to submit a MCR, you must provide a copy of the confirmation email that was sent to you when you completed the offer. It also doesn't hurt to take a screenshot of the confirmation screen either because sometimes you will not receive a confirmation email. The more supporting evidence that you can provide the better.

Do You Digg It?

Recently I have noticed a new way of cashing in on the new wave of online social networking programs out there. I have always known that a way to drive traffic to your own site was to use sites like Digg to well Digg sites and make comments. Lately I have heard that there are people and sites out there that will actually pay you money to Digg sites in which I assume as a an attempt to stir traffic to the target site. Or it could be like other sites that will pay you just to go Digg happy much like sites that will pay you to upload just about anything. It just goes to show you, if you can think it then you can sell it.

Cash Site vs Referral Site

There is another difference between what is called a cash site and a referral site that most people would not know about. Yes, obviously one has something to do with cash whereas the other has to do something with referrals. One thing that you may not be aware of has to do with the list of offers you can choose from. Some companies will not allow incentive sites to place their offers on a cash site so in a sense, cash sites have limited offers. The reason for this is because advertisers are protecting themselves against potential fraud among users. Sites offering cash rather than gifts are more likely to be hit with fraud because it takes less time to send cash than an item which allows companies less time to catch fraud. When it comes to catching fraud, time is of the essence. Fraud may not always be caught at first because it depends on when the fraud triggers alarms. Fraud is a major killer of most incentive sites which really ruins things for everybody including you, the one committing fraud. It is illegal and you may be prosecuted.
