Insider Secrets to Earning Virtual Currency with Online Surveys in MMORPGs and Virtual Worlds
As more online games, MMORPGs, and virtual worlds shift to the free-to-play business model, most are offering players a way to earn virtual currency by completing advertiser offers. This method of "gold farming" to earn points, credits, turns, or any other type of virtual currency, helps to keep costs down to players and makes the premium game experience more available to everyone.
Successfully completing online surveys that pay out virtual currency can be very frustrating at times. There are many reasons why offers do not convert. Entering in fake information, filling out the same offers more than once, not qualifying for the offer, or the advertiser's pixel not firing are only a few reasons why offers do not reward.
Many times you fill out all the information correctly and honestly, but the survey or offer does not credit. Not only is this annoying, it dramatically reduces your desire to fill out more surveys and prevents you from earning what is rightfully yours.
After years of experience with online surveys as a user, a publisher, and as an advertising network, we have figured out some very easy ways to help you maximize your success with online surveys.
Here are some Insider Tips:
TIP #1: Make sure your browser supports cookies. Cookies are just one way to verify that it is really you completing the surveys. Do a search online for a "cookie tester".
TIP#2: Using Internet Explorer to complete offers is preferred. You can try newer versions of FireFox, Chrome, and Safari, but we recommend that you use IE.
TIP#3: Turn off all ad blockers and pop-up blockers (two different things). Sometimes advertisers won't report your offer as completed because the "Thank You" page gets blocked. Think about it...does doing online surveys with a blocker activated even make any sense?
TIP#4: Upon completing an offer, clean your browsing history (Cookies, Cache, Web Forms, etc.) before starting another offer.
TIP#5: Use real information. If you put Bob at bob dot com as your email address, you will never get rewarded. Setting up a separate email account for these offers is valid, as long as it is a real email address that is registered to you. If your zip code doesn't match your street address, IP address and sometimes your phone number, the offer will most likely not reward.
TIP#6: Read the offer requirements carefully. Most offers will tell you what action is required to complete the offer. If you stop too early or skip a step, the reward will not be paid.
TIP#7: Read the terms and conditions! Advertisers are paying for something. This something is your personal information for marketing purposes. If you are filling out offers, you are opting in to their marketing database. Make sure you are comfortable with the advertiser's offer. If you are not, then don't do it!
TIP#8: Don't waste your time filling out the same offer more than once. If you see the same offer that you completed on another game, the odds are slim that it will convert for you a second time.
Use these tips to maximize payouts and success rates when you fill out surveys for virtual currency.
