Hints And Tips to help you on your way

Hopefully some of the things below will be useful to you but the biggest tip I can give you is to be patient and use common sense, following all the freebie sites rules properly.

• Joining eXceem would be something I advise as it's a forum full of hints and tips and people in the same situation as yourself. It also has regular competitions where you can win games consoles etc.
• Put your referral link in all your forums signatures (apart from eXceem as this isn't allowed).
• Make your own website to advertise your referral link and also to explain the process. You can get free websites from places like www.freewebs.com
• Friends and family are your best shots as they know you and trust you and will listen as you explain how they can get stuff for free also.
• Send emails to people on your contact lists on MSN etc.
• Putting your referral link in places where they can be seen freely e.g. Facebook, myspace and sites like that.
• Spending a few pounds on ink and making your own leaflets.
• Get free business cards from www.vistaprint.co.uk (you just pay postage) and distribute them.
• Use your own imagination and initiative. If you think you have an idea for getting people to sign up for you, go for it as you have nothing to lose. There is no such thing as a "bad" method.
• Don't give up. When your first free gift comes, you fill feel like you have acheived something, and you will have.

       Things that you should and shouldn't do

Always give the site your correct address as this will be the address your freebie is sent to.

Read the freebie sites terms and conditions carefully.
Keep looking at eXceem as all the latest freebie news happens there first.
If you do the Lovefilm offer, this will not credit until you have received your first DVD from them and sent it back.
Always make sure that you do any offer correctly and deposit the correct amount.

Never do more than one offer on each site.
Spam your referral link in places that it isnt welcome.
Ask someone in the same house as you to sign up.
Get anyone else to sign up using your computer.
Never sign up to the same site more than once.
