Who do you get your greens from?

tazx007 · 04-09-09, 04:20 PM

Hey guys so this question has been on my mind for awhile and I've been wondering who do you guys get all your greens from?

It's really hard for me to get greens from my website or youtube channel so I'm wondering when I see people with like 45 greens and 20 pending do you get them from your friends or family? Or are they just random people visiting your site and completing offers?

Random people from my sites.

Not one single friend or family have been asked to do an offer for me.
If they ask i'll tell them what it's all about, but I haven't asked any of them to do one for me.
If they read the site and decide to themselves then they are welcome to though.

I had one friend sign up for me when I first opened my FJ account but he did that without being asked to and didn't complete an offer.
I think he was just having a look to see what it was all about.

So yeah, randoms that visit websites is where it's all at for me.

Oh, and I had a lot of a boost when a very very kind chap gave me something like 16 greens

I have the same chap to thank for his advice, which led me to 4 greens.

What's all this then?

The first green I ever got was from a friend and I've had about 2 or 3 greens from other friends but the vast majority has been randomers.

Very nice cruelworld =D I guess I will have to figure out a way to get some web traffic to my site and completely re-do the look and hopefully get some people to look at it. I am also just like you hoping that I won't have to ask any friends or family to sign up for this as I wouldn't want to bother them

TheUserName · 04-09-09, 07:55 PM

I haven't had any greens.

EVER.

Drathro · 05-09-09, 02:31 PM

Random people, I have nobody else to ask.

It's slow going though, 8 greens since Nov 2007

same here. i get about 50 click-throughs a day and have so far accumulated a grand total of 2 pending that never completed. with so many people actually clicking my links to FJ, my pessimistic brain can't help wondering how many have really signed up and i've not been credited for.

I used to get Greens off friends and family but now i get them off random people via my website.

Good Luck getting your greens!

I started getting mine from friends and family. It's always good to have proof that the system works and is genuine. Go for something small first so you have proof to show people.

Now concentrating on website/business cards etc. Slow going though!

Good luck.

I get mine from my website, none since the 1st July now though and I'm so close to getting my TV!!

Amiethest · 07-09-09, 09:09 AM

Web traffic

MegamanEXE · 07-09-09, 09:21 AM

None. And Cruelworld's avatar just annoys me....

tazx007 · 07-09-09, 05:33 PM

hmm it seems everyone is getting their greens from web traffic. For me though I haven't had any success from web traffic even with a bit of SEO. Maybe time will tell as I heard the longer your site has been up the higher your page rank gets.

I hope you don't think we're doing anything dodgy

All referral tracking is automatic via the referral link, and the vast majority of offer completions are automatic via cookies (those that aren't automatic are all 100% credited by manual process).

We would never hold back referral credits - it would do us more damage than good because many of our customers are very interested in ratios... if we don't credit referrals and/or offers, their ratios decline and they move their links away from our site. Those that aren't interested in ratios are signing up friends and family so they are aware of who has signed up - again, we gain nothing by holding back those ones either.

There is a PM system.
