Hi,

I am new to online earning and thought keeping an online diary would help! Enjoyed reading a lot of others and gained lots of tips.

I don't have a specific amount in mind that I would like to aim for (although I would like to pay off my credit card).

Any tips would be appreciated :)

My journey started a little over a week ago and so far my totals look like this...

iPoll - £4.67
Roamler - £2
Clic and Walk - £2.75
OnePulse - 91p
OnePoll - £8.15
YouGov - 350pts
MarketForce - £20
Pinecone - £9

I have yet to receive a task from Streetspotr or Field Agent. They are all too far away from me at the moment.

I also signed up to swagbucks but have struggled to gain any SB so far! Not sure if I just need to work out the best way to use the site. I have screened out of every survey on Valued Opinions so far as well so my total there is 50p ???

WhatUsersDo seems to be a good option from what I have read so I also signed up to that but, as yet, have had no time to complete the first interview!

Aims for this week:-

Increase earnings for all websites and complete both Appen and WhatUsersDo assessment!

I find that with ClixSense or Swagbucks it tends to be one or the other. I like both sites, but ClixSense wins for me since they pay out twice weekly, whereas I use to be waiting a long time for Swagbucks to pay out.

Good luck :D

I see, thanks! I will have a look and pick one to stick with. I planned to do what you said about keeping to just a few sites but I have a few more than I wanted going at the moment while I try to figure them all out. Also struggling with a couple of sites as I seem to screen out for everything, which sucks! I have had three surveys from Pinecone this week though, at £3 each. Is that the standard payment for all surveys? x

That is the normal payout for Pinecone, but often there can be a good few weeks between paid surveys. I have also found I rarely get trials anymore.

I seem to get 1 pinecone survey every 2 weeks!

Pinecone must love me ;D I had £9 of surveys on monday and another £9 over the week since then.

I have 4 product trials ongoing at the moment with 2 more due for delivery early next week.

Just hit and miss really.

I complete surveys and the like on Clixsense but use Swagbucks to earn the daily target each day, this allows me to get a £25 Amazon at least every 3 weeks, for minimum effort.

Thanks guys :)

I've had no more from Pinecone, have withdrawn £6 but I haven't been credited yet for the final one I did.

Still not had a chance to do the whatusersdo test!

I was doing better on swag bucks than clixsense but I'm struggling to meet the daily target each day! Do you meet it every day and then every three weeks that equals a voucher on its own? X

I hit around 150 a day on Swagbucks, then with the 600 I receive from bonuses (every month on the 5th for hitting the targets) and the odd survey that I don't see elsewhere I manage to cashout every 3 weeks (on average).

If you was just to hit the daily target then you would probably be hitting maybe 70-100 a day so it would take a little longer.

I do NOSO, Daily Poll, Games, 3 x searches (when I remember), the odd survey, run the mobile apps and that's it. If I am close to the 2nd target I will run SBTV in the background, but only while I'm working.

How do you hit 150 without surveys? I struggle. Break it down for me please lol. And tell me more about this hitting targets lark :)

72SB for running 4 apps (just set up a video on your favourites and leave to run while not using mobile/tablet)
3SB NOSO/Daily Poll
20SB minimum for searches (usually nearer 25SB)
10SB for games

105SB-110SB there.

IF I need more to top it up I check for surveys on the dashboard (I usually find these on iPoll and elsewhere for better money) but if there is one there that isn't elsewhere I'll complete it.
Then I run SBTV if needed while working (just involves clicking the next video, 10 videos = 3SB. Very poor paying but ideal if you can't have much going on while you work as requires no concentration).

Hitting the first target everyday in January netted me 627 SB, with the odd 2nd target (5 over the month) thrown in.

I cashout for £25 Amazon, which is 4199SB.

I don't bother doing special offers as they are worth much more elsewhere, unless it is an offer that I see mentioned on the the green site SB thread that isn't on other sites.

The apps and SBTV require nothing more than clicking. SBTV requires you to load each video, and pay attention as you hit 100% (after 10th video) just incase a captcha comes up. The app require no effort other than starting them up, they then continue repeating until you've earned the 18SB from each app.

Swagbucks isn't a huge earner for me and I don't waste much time there, but it all adds up :)

Don't be sorry :)

Moviecli.ps 18sb per day Android
Indymusic.tv 18sb per day. Android
Lifestylz.tv 18sb per day Android or iOS
Sportly.tv 18sb per day Android or iOS

Basically you open, it loads random videos, you can find the shortest ones (there are threads online I believe for this - my friend just told me over Gmail chat but I'm sure I could find/ask her for them) and then you can add videos to your favourites. You open the app, hit the favourites and run.

For example on the Lifestylz App the shortest videos are 10 seconds. It plays a video, then there is a 10 second countdown telling you how many videos to go until your next 2SB is earned (often around 10-15 videos) and then once you've exhausted the 18SB it'll tell you that you've reached the maximum. Close and then open the next one.

This is great if you have periods of the day you don't use your phone. I personally run the apps, with my phone set to still ring/alert me to notifications/texts but to mute the volume of the apps.

I've been told you can run the apps on your phone/tablet (I think they work on tablets) and SBTV at the same time on your laptop
and I've done this before with no problems, but probably best not to.

Everyone has the same 1st target on Swagbucks now, if they use it regularly, and they are usually from 70-100SB (roughly). This should mean that with the 4 apps and the other free bits I've mentioned you'd be able to hit the 1st aim every single day. Even if you only did this, with no other surveys or special offers, you should hit £25 each month - 5 weeks roughly. Of Amazon anyway.

Thanks for that. Must do that myself. :)

This is information on the bonuses for targets:

Winning Streak Bonuses (meter super bonus)
- 7 Straight Days: 25 SB + Daily Bonuses
- 14 Straight Days: 100 SB + Daily Bonuses
- 21 Straight Days: 200 SB + Daily Bonuses
- Full month: 300 SB + Daily Bonuses

These do NOT add together, so you just get the highest amount for whatever you've achieved.

Here is an example of the targets for this past week:

Monday 89 (I achieved 151 - my 2nd aim). 89 would give a bonus of 8 (the following month on the 5th when they are credited) I will earn 15 for hitting my 2nd aim of 150. The two do not add together.
Tuesday 95 with a bonus of 10 (I achieved 102)
Wednesday 98 with a bonus of 10 (I achieved 107)
Thursday 105 with a bonus of 11 (I achieved 114)
Friday 70 with a bonus of 7 (I achieved 108)
Saturday 82 with a bonus of 8 (I achieved 131 - my 2nd aim was 130). I will earn a bonus of 13.
Sunday 78 with a bonus of 8 (I achieved 118)

In total for the past week I earned 831SB. This is quite low for me as I did no surveys whatsoever. I will also receive 69 in bonuses + 25SB for hitting the week. But I will hit 300SB for the month so that 25 is irrelevant.

831 x 3 = Just 2493, so not on track for a cashout in 21 days, however I always earn more on the weeks I actively look at the surveys. I've been short on time this week and because this is one of my lower earnings sites I didn't bother.

Even if you just did the targets that I've been doing, without surveys/special offers, over the month you'd still get around 625SB in bonuses + around 3740SB (based on my week x 4.5). Making enough to cashout for a £25 Amazon.

Not a problem.

I'm an iOS user for tablet/mobile but got an Android from Tesco for £25 which I made back in around two months thanks to paid apps on Clixsense and the ability to do the extra apps.

Also, this was classed as a business expense :)

That was really good. I am using android anyway so handy to know about the SB apps. I can run them when I am on my tablet or laptop and earn some extra SB using my phone. :)
