A Little Switch

[SunshineGirl]

We're going to be making a little bit of a switch in how we do things around here and see how it pays off.

For those of you who have been around awhile, you know that we usually add new freebie offers almost every day. However, fewer and fewer people have been trying them--and for good reason. You are basically selling your information. And while you might not care about that, you get really angry when they don't credit.

Instead of us spending all day every day looking for new free offers to put on the site, we are going to focus on helping everyone get the legit surveys and offers on a daily basis and only load freebie offers every other week. This will help us cut back on the number of non-crediting offers that get added because we won't feel compelled to be adding new offers every single day just for the sake of adding offers.

We'll give it a try for a bit and see how it works out. Hopefully you will spend less time looking for free offers here that may or may not credit. If we get a good "freebie" offer that is really legit (think MySurvey.com, Home Depot, etc.) we'll draw your attention to it here in the forum, by Twitter, and on Facebook. You can spend your time trying to get the legit surveys.

Then when we do add the freebies every couple of weeks, we will let everyone know to go hit the offers page and jump in.

In the end, you should have the same number of opportunities. You just won't be spinning your wheels so much trying to get credits for things that may or may not work.

This certainly gets my vote! Many of us work, leaving limited time to try all the freebies. I focus on the surveys and shopping and will try a freebie when I get a little extra time. It's very disappointing to do freebie after freebie and not get credit. I think your system will work much better.

I love this idea! It will allow me to focus my energy and time much better. Always something new and exciting here at SR!

Sounds good to me. We finally set our next Disney vacation dates and that has made me more motivated to get back into surveys, etc. Some days I spend so much time on freebies, I end up not trying surveys.

Excellent idea, I'm all for it!

[StitchandPooh'smom]

Works for me! The surveys make up the bulk of my earnings. Thanks for watching out for us!

Sounds like a good idea to me!!!

I think it a good idea too. I have hardly had time to do many offers except during the contests anyway.
It's better to spend your time on something more likely to have some compensation for the time spent!

I am not good with change. I am sure this will work I am just so not good with changes, not a good trait. I will roll with the flow though!

Are offers like MID, Eversave and pharma considered "legit" offers? I would hate to see less of these, since they really help me to earn on SR.

I have been doing less offers in general, most of the freebies posted lately are the types that don't usually credit for me.

I would love to see more survey opportunities or offers like the recent ones from Vista, those were great!
