The Plan of Attack

Being new to this freebie game, I am trying several different ideas.
1. SEO
Interested in getting a free xbox 360 package? Click on the link!
Want a free xbox 360? Try that link too!

The first one is currently ranked #3 behind wikipedia and some other site in google!!! That particular search term, "free xbox 360 package," gets searched approximately 8000 times per month.
The second one isn't having too much success. I don't even know how low it is ranked! But I am going to keep trying.

The way I am doing this is very basic. I use blogspot, which is automatically crawled by google. My images and backlinks all use the keywords. Hopefully I will get some referrals from this!

2. Getref
I posted earlier about getref, but now I am working even more with it. I accumulated approximately 60 credits, and promoted a program called zerodollardeal. I found a promotion for the site and got a free green. One of my referrals has currently completed half of the offers necessary for me to get $25 paypal. With that money, I plan to buy a 1 month getref gold membership as well as 50 credits. That should help a lot in getting referrals!
One issue in promoting zerodollardeal was that I got a -4 promoters rating because of scammers. I think I will give away four free credits to get my rating back up.

More coming soon!

Here comes the referrals... I hope

I have begun the seo, and have already have had some success! Just this morning, I created a page with tips and my referral link. Here is what I am going to do: everyone who signs up under my link will have their link put up for 4 days instead of mine. The page has tips on getting a free xbox 360 package- check it out!

Finals... few if any posts until after 12/14

It is finals time, and I need to study. I am really sorry for the spotty posts, but I just don't have the time right now. However, once on winter break I plan to start another blog, dedicated only to getting referrals, that I will use SEO to get pretty high in google. I will post info about my effort on that as it happens. Remember to sign up for getref if you haven't. It can be used for everything, including pay per click sites and reading email sites. You do other people's offers (all free) to get credits, and you use those credits to buy participation in whatever you want referrals for.

Ok... there were no comments. I guess I will choose 360.f4e1. I promise to post the referral link VERY soon. Just signing up under my getref link will help me out, at absolutely no cost and minimal effort to you. You dont have to use it (although it is very helpful), but signing up gives me a 2 point bonus.

Now All I Need is Readers...

digg story <- please digg my blog

Choosing a site

I have to decide between myfavefreebies and free4every1 for the site I will do. I am leaning towards free4every1 because it can be traded on anything4free (a4f) as a no cc site, and it has a very low number of referrals to get a system: it is 12 for a 360 pro with two games and an extra controller. That bundle seems really good for me- I can get halo 3 and fifa, as well as another controller. The other option would be a $500 giftcard to Best Buy for 11 referrals. Myfavefreebies is the other possible site. It has a similar amount of referrals to get a xbox, but dont seem to have the same amount of free offers. I have already signed up for the myfavefreebies xbox site, because there was a promotion to get a free offer credit.

Which site should I choose? Let me know what you think in the comments section! Also tell me if there is another website (no credit card) that you would recomend.

New website: anything4free

After asking a few friends, I have decided to use anything4free.com/forums as a way to get referrals. It seems to be a very good site for trading referrals, and also for earning money for signing up for people's sites. It also has a rating called the TR (trade reputation) which helps show the traders who are definitely legit. I think I will hold myself to trading with people above 5 TR, although that won't be set in stone. Now to find a site to complete...
