A Little Something I Added For You Newbies.... The easiest way to start making money is by doing the Surveys.
The surveys usually take about 3 minutes to complete and are worth $0.35-$7.00 each. There are a ton of these. So there is potential to make a DECENT amount of cash just by completing one family of surveys or just the FREEBIES!!
Choose the first survey by clicking on the link or banner of that survey. It will say something like "Win Free Groceries for a Year. Complete Survey." This will open the survey in a new window.
1st page: Put in your name, birth date, email and click the two boxes then press Enter. While doing this family of surveys (Surveys that look the same) you will need to alternate your email addresses so that it recognizes it as a different one each time. If you use the same email for every survey, you will not get credit for them. You can alternate emails by placing a period ANYWHERE or multiple places in the email address. Gmail allows you to do this and still send all emails to the same inbox.
For example: 1st survey: youremailhere@gmail.com
2nd survey: y.ouremailhere@gmail.com
3rd survey: yo.urema.ilher.e@gmail.com
Once you run out of places to place that first email you can do this:
y.o.uremailhere@gmail.com
gmail allows a dot inbetween any letter and you can still get the email!!!
2nd page: Enter your REAL info.
3rd page: The next page will be the actual survey.
You'll know you're done when you get a message in black letters at the top of the page saying "Thank you for completing the survey or Thank you for registering etc., etc. ". IF YOU SEE THIS YOU DO NOT NEED TO GO ON FURTHER!!
After the survey click submit if it is on the survey page then Exit out of the survey.
Hope This Helps! :thumbsup:

Assumption: you are completing offers legitmately, with real information, and for the first time.
From a technical standpoint, nothing in this thread could possibly help your crediting. In fact, the cookie deletion is much more likely to hurt your chances.
Look at it this way: these tracking systems have been around for many many years and are designed by the marketing companies that use them. It's in that marketing company's best interest to track as many completions as possible, since that's how they get paid. Therefore, the tracking systems were designed so that they track perfectly on a standard, out-of-the-box configuration. And they do.
There are two main methods by which an offer can fail to track:
Advertiser choice
-> The advertiser's computer system may choose to not fire the tracking pixel. They are allowed to do this, and although the criteria are usually stated up front, sometimes they are not. Example: If a particular company owns several different sites, they may choose not to fire the tracking pixel if you sign up on more than one of their sites. [We try really hard to avoid putting conflicting offers up but with dozens of companies and hundreds of sites it is extraordinarily difficult]. Another example: if you've signed up at a site before, and you sign up again, they generally will not credit you.
Technical limitation
-> Pixel tracking has an inherent and insuperable design flaw that causes it to track less than 100% of the time. This can happen for a few reasons: Flow interruption, blocking, HTTP request failure.
--> I believe blocking is the most common cause for noncredit. I use this term to mean the blocking or deleting of the tracking cookie. This can and often does happen silently. It's usually a "feature" of ad-blocking, anti-spyware, or anti-virus software; or sometimes a setting in your browser; or sometimes it is done by hand by people who think that they are helping themselves by deleting cookies.
--> Flow interruption occurs when you complete an offer's requirements, but do so via a different "path". An example of this is Obopay - if you sign up but their system cannot verify your identity, it will request that you call them and fax them a driver's license. Once you do this, your account will be activated (and thus the offer requirements met) - but you will not be credited. That's because you never see the normal "account successfully activated" page - they activate you manually via the DL fax. There's just no working around this, sadly.
--> HTTP request failure. When you get to the page on the advertiser's site which meets the completion requirements, the advertiser's server instructs your browser to download an invisible "pixel" image which handles the tracking. If you press "stop" (or hit the escape key, back button, etc) before the page is fully loaded - the pixel will not be fetched and the offer will not track. Occasionally, the request to fetch the pixel will fail for an unknown technical reason. It's the insuperable nature of the protocol that the failure happens silently, and it doesn't get tried a second time. In that case, the offer will again fail to track.
Sorry to get so technical. This is mostly my opinion, but I base it on a significant pool of data and experience from a 2.5 year period.
Bottom line... use your regular email address and contact information in a fresh installation of any standard browser, without any adblocking, antispyware or antivirus software running, and you're golden 99% of the time.

Wow!!
Thanks sooooo much for this. :wave:
Now I know that clearing the cookies is not such a good thing....at least not as often as has been suggested within the forums. I am guilty of giving this advice as that what was suggested to me when I started.
Also, now I understand why certain offers don't credit. I have received the HTTP request failure numerous times and I thought that if I just backed up and tried to submit again that it would credit....Now I no longer have to drive myself crazy trying to do that!!
Again, thanks for clearing up the technical end of this - it really helps!! :thumbsup:
