Yeah, those types of sites are quite difficult, but if you look at the organic listings for those searches close enough you’ll find some sites that are similar but take a different approach to all of this. They’re MUCH more professional about this and have a bigger membership base.
On such sites people very well know they gotta complete an offer, which is just 1 or 2 — most of which are under $10 — not like 50 driving up the $ figure. They then need a couple of friends to do the same, each friend is worth about $40-50 towards their gift. For example, if they want a Wii, which retails for $250, it will cost them 5 referrals (each worth $50). That’s it! The process is over!
If you like more details I explain it more clearly on my network of sites, or you can email me if you like.
I think many of these companies simply packed up and moved into SecondLife
The incentivized advertising certainly is thriving…no sign of stopping anytime soon!!
I dont see a slow down in any of those sectors, should see a steady growth in the near future
“read the find print”??? The term is “fine print”, dolt.
Sometimes even the big guys think they are so immune to everything going on around them.
