credit for searches// PROBELMS???
« on: April 03, 2012, 04:01:37 pm »
I have started getting one not qualified every day it seems. But I also have been getting qualified searches every day. I make about one or two cents searching every day. Are you getting any qualified searches where you earn a penny along with the not qualified searches?  :dontknow:

I managed to complete 20 searches on April 1 and once I reached 23 searches it stopped accepting them as valid. I thought the system reset overnight?  but I guess it does not, I just tried again on April 3 for number 24, and am still getting invalid search, so not sure why with this, maybe it takes longer than overnight to reset A clear notice would be helpful. I understand when one does them too fast, or like a robot but I do not do that.

I don't understand their algorithms.  I kinda think that when you make so much in searches, it slows or shuts you down.  All my searches have been valid, but after I make so much, it slows me down or shuts me down completely and I don't make any more.  February I made 90+ cents.  March I made 30+ cents.  I've made 10 cents thus far this month, but it's now saying my searches are invalid so I don't know if I'll make any more $$ with it this month.

My searches are hardly ever counted, and I use the toolbar for my legitimate searches. No idea why, since two other similar sites (which I won't name) always credit me for similar searches.

This never worked for me more than a time or two. I uninstalled and gave up on it.

I have been having the same problem but someone suggested clearing your history and cookies often.  See if that works.

The admin even told me himself, they will straight up freeze your search account if they think you're cheating in any way. This includes searching very fast and probably using the same keywords more than once. It will remain frozen until the end of the month, that's when the toolbar resets.

My advice is to take time in between each search, at least 30 seconds to a minute. I know it may take a while to reach the maximum 5 cents but it's the only way if you don't want to get frozen again. You should also try and search for something unique and different, without using the same keyword, in each search.

I was cut off from searching in the middle of February, but i learned my mistake, and in March i was able to get over 500 searches before the end of the month.

Mostly, I am doing ok in the paid to search but I take it slowly. I never try to earn more than two cents in a given day. It seems to work best for me if I do four searches in a row, get my penny, and then move on to other things. I come back much later for my second penny. I also have noticed that if I do one or two searches and then come back later or the next day for another search or two, I get an invalid search. I save up my searches and do four in a row and more often than not get the penny. I do not know if this is just coincidence or not.  :dontknow:

My advice is take your time and do four searches in a row. Then move on to something else and come back later for four more searches. See if that helps. But I only do this twice in a given day. I have never tried it three, four or five times.
