  | Freebie NewsHi All, Thanks for the comforting words in the other thread  I've decided to start a little blog to chart the freebie scene in the UK. Obviously exceem already does this to an extent, but my reasoning is that:1) You don't have to register to read a blog! 2) You can use RSS to read it, so you will always know when there is a new post 3) I need something to do 4) There aren't enough dedicated sites, and having more can only enhance the legitamacy of how it all works to newcomers I'd really like to target it towards newcomers to the scene, it would be nice to have another place you can send them aswell as exceem to get hints and tips on referrals, the best offers, the best networks and things like that. What do you recon? http://freebienews.blogspot.com/ (ps. the design needs sorting a bit, it is just a standard blogger template at the minute)

| Re: Freebie NewsI have one on there, and my referral link to exceem. Id rather make it a good resource than spam my ref links everywhere at the minute. I find if i go on a website and all the links are ref links it gives the impression that thats all it was set up for, which is fair enough - most are, but how can the website be unbiased? I will post about networks which are bad aswell as good and not just try and push offers on everyone Miles: Id love for you to put it in the podcast, just let me know what kind of thing you fancy including! Seeing as its brand new i need to get the word out ya know

| Re: Freebie NewsFair enough, people do tend to ignore it if there are ref links everywhere!

| Re: Freebie NewsCheers gang, Was afraid i would just get beaten up for suggesting another freebie site could exist alongside exceem I have updated the look and layout a bit since it was first posted. You guys can help me out, i have a few ideas for content but if anyone has any more ideas or fancies writing anything just let me know...If you could submit photos to me i will post them also, which will really help - i can only take so many freebie photos myself before people get suspicious

| Re: Freebie NewsTo be honest the sites which are there at the minute are a placeholder... Im going to update that sometime this evening. Which site is unproven - reward genie? Im assuming your referring to the link on the right?

| Re: Freebie Newsyea I would report on the arrival and maybe important news about new/unproven, but if it was me i wouldnt be giving info which might influence signups. I'd stick to the ones supported by exceem.

| Re: Freebie NewsI think on the homepage i will only link to only the best networks, although i will feature all in news... Myfreegadgetnetwork Freeclickz Grab Network Eurogiveaways Giveaway Network Have i missed a high quality network? Im not counting FreePay because of their insane verification procedures, i really wouldn't want to send anybody there..

| Re: Freebie NewsCheers Bazza, Sorry about the belated reply. Ive seen people joining congas on here for consoles on free4me - i thought you could only do paypal in the UK? Also, as a note i have tweaked the design a little today.
