how do they work? Is it a massive scam? Nothing is ever free nowadays.. Title: Re: Referal Sites Post by: Batch on Monday, April 20, 2009, 11:00:00 Quidco is fine if you follow the instructions (including clearing cookies before ordering).
I think quidco take the first £5 (per year)and after that you keep the rest. It's money for nothing. Title: Re: Referal Sites Post by: Batch on Monday, April 20, 2009, 11:07:02 Sorry, my missunderstanding, the referral site you linked to - scamtastic I'd imagine, though I don't know.
Title: Re: Referal Sites Post by: jonny72 on Monday, April 20, 2009, 11:49:06 Actually I think you were right comparing it to Quidco.
With Quidco, they get the click through / referral payment which they then pass on to you. It looks like the site you linked to does the same, except they keep the payment and then pass it on to you once you get another x people to do the same. Kind of like a pyramid version of Quidco. I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole though, stick to Quidco. Title: Re: Referal Sites Post by: Barry Scott on Monday, April 20, 2009, 15:52:39 It's simply a GPT (get paid to) site. Most affiliate networks are kinda against it because the owner of the offer (the affiliate) is in some instances getting $$, the smaller email submit's are worth between $0.50 and $1.50 in general. They do work, but you gotta stick to the bigger ones, like cashcrate etc. It's merely insentivised cost per action advertising, where you're getting paid a portion of what the offer owner gets. There's little insentive for the owner of the site or the offers to defraud the filler of the offer because if you report them to the networks, they'll often get booted and lose any earnings.
I'd actually be suprised if you didn't get what it was you were filling offers for, whether it looks scammy or not, most these sites are legit. |
