All about How to get Referrals

There is certainly a lot of money to be made online through money making websites. However, you can earn a lot more if you have referrals which are also working to make you money. The problem is that it is not always that easy to get referrals. Or of you get referrals they are not always that active. I have therefore decided to list a few ways of getting referrals and the advantages and disadvantages of the method.

Signing up friends and family - I have found this to be the best way to get referrals. Most friends and family are happy to do something that will help you out and if it makes both them and you money they are likely to sign up. The problem that I have found is that I am member of so many sites that they are now sick of me asking them to sign up and they do not have as much time to be active on sites as I do.

Buying referrals - it is possible to buy referrals from a number of different websites. The problem with that is the website will offer its members some money if they sign-up. They will therefore just signup for the money and have no incentive to be active. If you know you will get paid for each referral then this is well worth doing if you can find a company that charges less than you get paid. However, if you only get paid a percentage of the money that they earn it is a gamble. Places I have successfully bought referrals from :

Buyrefs - $7.95 for 25 signups
My Freeshares- $25 for 50 signups

Some websites actually sell referrals to their own sites. When people sign up to a website without a referral that website tends to sell the referrals to its members. These tend to be more expensive (for example Adbux charges $39.95 for 40 referrals. However, some people feel that this type of referral can be more active than ones you buy from other websites. The ones from other websites tend to be people who signup because they are getting paid to. Therefore they is little chance they bother to be active on the site once they have signed up. As these referrals have already signed up to the site of their own accord, they obviously found something appealing about it and are likely to continue using it.

Advertising on Forums - There are a lot of forums on the Internet. Many do not like advertising but some will allow a little in moderation. It is important not to spam forums as not only will it annoy the users and will not help to gain any sign-ups but it is likely that you will be banned from the forum. This can be a good way of getting signups but you do need to be careful. A great website for promoting is MMMtalk, but make sure you only advertise in the correct sections.

Promoting using a website or blog - There are a lot of other people doing this so it is important to try to stand out from the others. Make sure you keep the site up to date and inform the readers of your recent payments and activity. The more proof you can provide that you have been paid, the more likely people are to sign up.

Promoting using email - Everytime you send an email make sure that you promote a website in your signature. This is especially good if you have a website or blog promoting your sites as you can just put the website / blog URL and the reader will have access to lots of information.
