Picking the right GPT program is the most important thing you can do in order to succeed in the GPT market. While you’ll still be making money on offers that you complete at a sub-par site, the amount of energy and time you spend on that site could easily be utilized somewhere else and the returns exponential. This is a lesson that I have personally learned from my experience in marketing the GPT site–Moola.

Now, Moola does have a lot of things going for it, since it is one of the first sites of its type. Moola gives it’s users 1 cent and then the user can play a host of games against other users where they can risk a certain amount of money in their balance in an effort to double up their money. If you ever run out of money, Moola simply gives you another cent so you can continue on your Moola adventures. A stunning UI and interactive games draw users in, but unfortunately Moola’s team drops the ball when it comes to support and payout.

When Moola first started out, they only offered cash checkouts, and you would receive your payment in a timely manner usually spanning less than a month. But as word of the site grew Moola had more on its plate than it could handle. Cashouts began to be delayed for weeks on end, but there seemed to be light at the end of the tunnel when they added PayPal as a payment type.  Cashout times once again decreased to the joy of its users. Since then, this problem has resurfaced once again with cashout times taking over 22 weeks! That’s almost half a year! To counteract this, Moola has introduced another payment method–Visa PrePaid Upside Card. The Upside card is basically a prepaid debit card that Moola uses to send its funds to users. They are now promising “drastic” decreases in cashout time, but I’m at a point where I’m not even sure what that means. Are they telling the truth this time? Or are they just trying their best to appease the masses for another period of time. Either way, there are still thousands of users that participate on Moola. Why is this? Well, like I said earlier, Moola has a great game system, but their own growth is stymied by their inability to provide decent cashout times and customer support.

Another key attribute that I look at when choosing the “right” GPT program is their referral network. Once again, lets take a look at Moola’s.  They offers 4 levels of referrals. Now at first this may seem pretty impressive, but when you realize you’re only getting 4%, 3%, 2%, and 1% of what your referrals make you tend to get a little disheartened. With other GPT sites offering 20-40% of what your referrals earn the messily 4% pales in comparison. I began promoting Moola sometime last summer and as you can see, I’d say I’ve done fairly well in that retrospect, but due to Moola’s low referral rewards, I’ve only managed to make hundreds instead of thousands if the same referrals were applied to a different site.

Well that’s all for today folks. Hopefully that will enlighten you on the matter of choosing the right GPT site for you!

Yesterday, I explained in detail what it took to complete an offer. Today, I am going to show you two applications that totally stream line the process.

The first application that any avid GPTer needs to have is CCleaner. CCleaner is a great application that allows you to easily remove the cookies you have accumulated from completing an offer. Not only that, but it boasts a host of other pragmatic features that warrants its inclusion on my list.

Next up on the list is RoboForm. Roboform allows you to easily manage and store all those hundreds of emails you have created. But more importantly, it allows you to instantly fill our forms with a single click of a button. No longer will you spend countless hours typing the same contact information over and over again. Now, you can store this information in RoboForm and access it through it’s toolbar.

I’ve had a couple of questions regarding how far you have to go to get credit or to “complete” an offer, so here I am writing a few tips on the subject. Hopefully these tips will go a long way in helping you guys make money online, like it did for me.

1. Make sure that you have cleared all of you cookies prior to starting an offer, since many offers will not approve if they realize that you already have a cookie for a similar offer.

For Firefox: Tools > Clear Private Data > Check Cache/Cookies/Authenticated Sessions > Click Clear Private Data Now

For Internet Explorer: Tools > Internet Options > Delete Cookies + Delete Files > Apply > OK

2. Use different email addresses for offers whenever you can. Personally, I’ve gone through hundreds of email addresses, and continue making them whenever needed. The obvious choice is Gmail, but make sure not to go over their daily allowance of new emails. Normally, I try not to use the same email within a week, but it is okay to recycle them every once in a while.

3. Now you are ready to start the offers. The first page usually asks you to confirm your age and to enter contact information.

4. The rest of the offer deals with pages of offers that you have the choice of responding yes or no. Just select no for all of them, unless you are truly interested in the deal, since this has no impact on your approval rate.

5. The final page will be something that states that this merchandise is available for you. Pages vary from one site to another, but generally they deal with some form of special offers levels, such as Silver, Gold, Platinum. When you get here you know you’re done.

6. Go back to your GPT site and submit the offer that you just finished and wait for the payment to be credited to your account!

It really is just that simple. Tomorrow I will be posting some key applications that all GPTers should have that will make making money that much easier!
