 | This is harder than I thoughtHello all, I'm new to this board as I made an account because I'm struggling with getting referrals. I've been trying to get 'greens' for some weeks now and haven't got any, only 2 reds. When I try to spread the word about this amazing site, people always get a bite at me saying this is a total scam, disregarding the proof I show. I even showed the CNN report about this site being legit, and they still don't believe me! I tried making a site, but I'm no computer whiz so I utterly failed at that. I thought about making a video as well, but seeing there are already a thousand videos on youtube I don't think it's gonna help that much. So does anyone have some advice or tips on how to do the job and convince people? I'm willing to put my effort into this, but till now it hasn't showed results. Also I think people are just leaving away the referral numbers at the end of my link, just for the sake of it. I have lots of respect for this site and it's makers, also for the community that supports it. Although I haven't been able to enjoy the joy that it brings. |

| Doing something is better than nothing so don't just throw away the simplest ideas use them! The Youtube video is worth a try! All the people who are saying It's a scam are just pure ignorant, you can't disregard fact when considering something. Hire a website maker - maybe your friends are website whizzes - and tell them to make a site for you. I already have respect for you since you've come on here asking for help and not simply spamming your ref link. Oh and check the how to get greens section for ideas. |

  | There are many free website templates out there that can do the trick!

| Thank you for taking the time and considering my question, I really caught the freebiejeebies microbe. I can't get the free gifts out of my head. I've made a video, I got almost 200 views already but haven't got one sign-up. So I tried another more personal approach: trying to convince people on camera via chatroulette/omegle, but I'm always getting flamed at for being a scammer/hacker. People just won't believe me, although I really try to give a brief and clear explanation on how this network works and how it's been proven to be real. (showing proof and news reports) I'm getting really frustrated because it just feels I'm doing something wrong, but I'm not even close to giving up. I hope I will get my first green one of these days. |

| People on YouTube just want to get it without the effort. People on website like ChatRoulette/Omegle or usually teenage males wanting to see women, now if you were female then it might work (apologies if you are female though!).

  | Don't throw in the towel too early. Omegle and chatroulette are about useless as far as greens, unless you are a smoking hot chick willing to get freaky with some fools on cam, you can't expect much there. I read the first post and i didn't know **** about making websites or anything just like you and managed to study up a little and get one completed. Granted my website is pretty shabby compared to most but to me its not half bad cause its my first one i ever attempted to make. I truly haven't promoted my site but one time and probably have about 20 sign ups just from that in about a weeks span. Those were just sign ups but i was surprised how fast they came in. I'd say study up some and make a website they seem to get the best responses. Just promoting your site properly in some places can get you greens. SEO helps a lot but hey i can't really speak on that yet as that is something I'm still trying to learn myself.

And I guess you're right about the online chats, they're just not the right audience looking for free stuff online. ^^ Oh well, I'll keep my quest going though. Might just try and make a website one of these days. | |

| I'm getting nuts really! I've been trying all day to get referrals over the net, but I can't get even one  I'm just not made for this, don't have any experience whatsoever. I know some people would've gotten 50 refs with the same time I already invested in this >< I'm losing my mindLast edited by Ymerej; 03-09-10 at 08:13 PM.. |

| Just keep at it, I didn't get 1 referral for about 6 months, so I learnt how to make webpages etc and I now have had more than 1000, you can do it!

| quick question about backlinks, does putting your link on your freebiejeebies profile count as a backlink? |

A backlink accounts if Google can see it without requiring to log in to something.

| Okay, I've decided to make a website and have finished it. I worked on it for several hours, and I think I did fine. Is it okay if I post my website on here? Oh well, I'll edit it out if it isn't allowed. I just wanted to know what your quick thoughts were on it. My website is: iLikeFreeThings - Home So whadaya think? |

| Site looks good for a first go! Don't know about smilies though  If you put a link back to eXceem in your site then you allowed to put your site in your signature and that could potentially count as a backlink for your site.
