I am starting a new thread asking members to share any tips they've learned on how to increase your chance of getting more daily surveys to credit. I am looking for HELPFUL or CONTRIBUTORY posts on tricks of the trade that some of you more experienced survey takers have learned that may help the newbies and those members who have been making a sincere effort to get at least ONE daily survey to credit on any given day but have finally thrown up their hands in total frustration and disgust anfd given up! These people need our help!  :angel11:

Having had some success in this area, I will share a few tips that I have learned from experience, posts from other members in the forum and through simple trial and error:

1. Clear your history and cookies before you start each session. This is an essential pre-requisite to your success.

2. Attempt all of the nine daily survey sponsors each day. Rinse and repeat.

3. Exhaust all your chances with each sponsor. When given the chance to "Try another survey" or choose "No thanks", try another survey! You can still get credit for successfully completing one of these!

4. Keep the 'Congrats' screen open until the survey credits. Put all activities on hold. I generally shrink the 'congrats' screen and open my account page, refreshing the screen until the survey credits. You don't want to interfere with the automated crediting system at this point. If you start another survey or close the 'congrats' screen before the survey credits, the odds of that survey you just sweated through crediting go down...way down.

5. Demographics are important but that is not the only factor involved in having success with these. Interests and purchases and dogged persistence play very important roles as well.

6. Some of the surveys that land you cash are usually few and far between and may only appear once. They are like gold nuggets hidden in a pile of useless rocks. They're there but it takes luck and persistence to find them.

These are just a few of the tricks and techniques I have learned over the past year that have made it possible for me to cash out every month since I joined. I am inviting everyone to share any tips or make any other suggestions on ways to increase the odds of getting more of the daily survey credit each day. Let's help the disheartened folks who are just trying to make a buck doing a survey without spending their valuable time and energy with these and getting squat in return!

Let's help one another with this, at least for those who are still on board with the surveys or for those who may want to get back on board. Isn't that what FC and the forum are all about? Here's your chance to help the less fortunate and get paid $.10 from FC for your post while doing it! As I see it , it's a win-win for everyone! So have at it!!  ;D

Your tips are all very good but I so seldom qualify for the surveys that I only try them about once or twice a week.  If I had more time I'd try them every day.

Thanks for tips.   :)  Usually I only try a few surveys a month as I dont have time to do surveys and hardly qualify if I do.  But these are good tips to keep in mind. Hopefully we can all qualify for more.  :)

I have put all of the above tips to use and in doing so my survey qualification totals are steadily rising as is my monthly required credits that I use toward my cash out. Three additional tips that I can offer are, that if all of your qualification chances have been exhausted without success, try clearing the cookies and then try using another browser. If you have the time try the surveys at different times during the day. This may prove to be helpful to qualify for more surveys. The last tip that I have had to use the most and is by far the most important is to have PATIENCE.

Well thanks a bunch for the helpful advice, I am going to try clearing my history and cookies to see what results I may get from there. I will check back periodically to see if there are any new updates to try. Take care! :thumbsup:

Those are all great tips. I find it's best if you set a dollar amount goal for the day, say $2. If you complete FC tasks (paid to click is .15 alone) and one or two daily offers, you can easily reach a goal of $2 a day. If you have the time to devote to it, you can make your amount goal higher. I'd imagine one could possibly make $5 a day if you kept at it and went through all the dailies and FC tasks/bonuses.

Unless you are in market research, there is no reason you should not be able to qualify and get approved for a few surveys a week. After a drought yesterday, I already qualified for two daily surveys this morning:

SSI Daily Survey - 04/04/2012    2012-04-04    $0.55    Approved
FC Survey: Vote for your Favorite Restaurants    2012-04-04    $1.00    Approved

My demographics are nothing special, as I said in my original post. I simply use all the tricks I have learned from other members and I am very very persistent. I do not spend an unreasonable length of time on these either. It's not necessary. I've become extremely proficient at the qualifying process and can zoom through a session attempting all nine sponsors very quickly now. You can too if you do it every day!

My personal opinion is that many members have no success with the dailies because they give up way too easily, believing their demographics are against them and they are wasting their time. Nothing could be further from the truth. You've got to stick with it, keep a positive attitude and apply all the tricks of the trade. I also believe that that's how 'oldbuddy' has such resounding success with referrals and most of the rest of us don't. We simply are not willing to put in the time and effort required. Once you get on a roll with referrals, daily surveys or anything else in life that you give 110% to, sooner or later you will begin to see success. The secret to success, I believe, is an unswerving will and the unwavering belief that, if you persist and maintain a never-give-up attitude, anything you set your sights on is not only possible but a certainty.

Do you read the daily quotations in our new DCEs? I do. Every day. These quotes represent the distilled wisdom of many great individuals and many of them are about attitudes that create success. Affirm these truths to yourself every day and you can turn failure into success, just like they did. Whatever you believe you can achieve. That may sound trite but it doesn't make it any less true. Start small with something like the daily surveys and work your way up to bigger things like landing a job or helping someone close to you turn their lives around.

Anything is possible if you believe it is. Nothing is possible if you believe that. As I see it, both statements are equally true. Which belief do you wish to embrace? I vote for the first. The trick is to eliminate all doubt from your mind. Not as easy as it sounds, but it can be done.

Sorry for getting a little far afield there and all philosophical. I just think you make your own odds and that life is what you make it.  :peace:

I'm usually able to take one survey a day, otherwise it seems I get knocked out of the rest of them

 :bs: I'm on here everyday trying to get most of the offers to pay off. They say come back in 24 hours but when you do there isn't a survey for does anybody know what's up with that. Then when you complete most offers you don't get credited for it. I'm new to this site I just want to is there something I'm doing wrong.[ :dontknow:/color]

You pretty much hit the nail on the head with your tips...don't think there's anything else. I think the main key point in qualifying for a survey is persistence, and the key point in getting credit is to leave that "Congrats" window open until you do.

Thanks for sharing this!

Thanks for your endorsement. Without the help of the daily surveys I do get credited for, I would certainly not have been able to cash out every month. They have been getting a bit of a bad rap lately in the forum and I wanted to put as much of a positive spin on the subject as possible. There are pluses and minuses to consider and each member should weigh the pros and cons before deciding whether to make them a part of their daily routine on FC or not.

I am simply passing along simple tips to help maximize return using minimal time and effort. Helpful posting. That's what the forum is all about. I learned that from you, IceKittyNM (and a few others of course) and I thank you.  :thumbsup:
