Swagbucks

November 22, 2012 2:29pm CST
I joined Swagbucks a couple of weeks ago and it looks like a good thing. However, I wondered what the best way was to earn s/bucks? I've watched a few of the short videos but find that I don't always get credited for them -when I do it's just for 2 Swagbucks. I would be grateful if you could share your experiences of the site.

I usually find I get about 15 videos a day to watch at 1 or 2 sb each. Then there is searching... usually you can get swagbucks 2-3 times a day at often 6-8 SB each search but sometimes higher... can be up to 30+. Daily surveys are also good if you qualify for them - this is a flat 70 SB. Then there are the samll things that all add up and are quick to do - daily poll is 1 sb then the NOSO is another 2 SB. Obviously the special offers also have a wealth of ways to earn through signing up to stuff, etc... I found that just through watching videos, searching, daily poll and NOSO I usually can accumulate about 40 SB per day. I think I've remembered it all but if you check out my blog there is a full breakdown of ways to earn on Swagbucks somewhere there.... Good luck!

SBTV message - This is the message that shows up if you try to view SBTV videos more than once. The interface is the SBTV popup from the toolbar.
You used to be able to get credit for the same SBTV videos over and over, but they changed it so you see the attached message if you try to view a video more than once per day now.

Thanks very much Nero11, extremely helpful. Can you be credited for watching the same video repeatedly?

I have been a member of swagbucks for about four years. When I first became a member I thought that the earning was very slow as well. However, since then I have actually found that it is quite easy to earn on swagbucks. I attempt to search and earn at least once a day, when I am spending some time here on mylot, I am always watching swagbucks tv in another window and I will change the video each time that they credit. Oh, and the real bonus is that if you have an android you can install the swagbucks mobile tv app which will earn you as much as fifty swagbucks every day, or 1500 swagbucks every month. Also, do not forget to do the daily poll and also the daily NOSOs which earn thee swagbucks a day, not much but it does add up.

The polls and NOSOS are the easiest of course. The videos I usually just watch on another tab while I'm doing something else. I like the surveys the best, I usually qualify for at least one a day if I just keep at it, plus get some neat stuff sometimes. Yesterday I completed a survey there and at the end I got a free ABCmouse membership, plus the 88 swagbucks for the survey! So my kids are happy about that.

You get one swagbuck every day if you download the toolbar. You can earn from the NOSO (no obligation special offers) everyday (2 swagbucks). Go to swagbucks tv and watch the videos (you will get credit for those) and use their search. You get swagbucs for searching...sometimes only 5, but I have gotten as many as 39 a couple times. If you are on facebook, like swagbucks and watch for swagcodes. When you find one, put it in the Gimmie box on the home page to earn bucks. Check out the 'earn' tab on the home page or the toolbar to see all the ways you can earn.

Have a go of everything would be my advice as there are many ways to earn on swagbucks,it is a very popular site at the moment and seems to be going from strength to strength. Make sure you do the noso,poll and video's every day and daily offers can really knock your money up and if you like playing games get in to them also,keep going because it will be worth it.

I never used the videos earning part, only searching. So, in that respect, I can't really comment. But I have gotten paid from Swagbucks SEVERAL times - probably over ten times - although not recently. But I can almost guarantee that they didn't turn into a scam site. Best of luck to you...HOpe you get credited for those videos you watched. Happy earnings!

Hai,mylotter. I have joined with this site only one day before and so far earned 54 SB including my sign up SB. with just one day of experience now i start to explore the site and found some important earning feature here. It is worth to be here. I search for some time participated in the daily poll and play games watch some videos but i don't know whether i have been credited for watching video or not. any way for me it is very comfortable for working with swagbuck.

When it comes to Swagbucks I do the polls, special offers, search, and only sometimes (once in a blue moon) do the videos. I've cashed out a few times pretty quickly by using this method. When it comes to the special offers I mostly do the ones in the trial pay tab since it credits much faster than the offers in any of the other tabs. The searches take a while to earn points though. I stay on swagbucks for about 30 minutes every other day and make the payout within 1 week or less. The money is not much, but it helps. Anyways, Happy mylotting :)
