I've been gradually losing interest in SB for a while and spending more time on other sites; Valued Opinions, OnePoll and Ipsos Access are just a few that are a lot less effort than SB and pay better as well. So if SB became impossible, there are plenty of other options to keep me busy0

the surveys are the same on neobux... $1-$1.50 for the SAME surveys that swagbucks have. Neo also pay 9 cents plus per task as opposed to SB paying 2.9p each or something awful. This is swagbucks choice to reduce. otherwise the rest of the sites would follow. they are doing all they can to reduce our ability to earn. would love to see their accts.Originally Posted by easylife73:

What I like(d) about SB is that it combined a lot of different concepts into one homogenised site - e.g. pay to click ads on the walls and vids on homepage, surveys, offers, heck - even games and 'tv' are fueled by ads, not to mention search to win. It's a good idea to have everything in one place. But unfortunately it is going down the proverbial poo tubes.0

I use IPSOS and Valued Opinions. I keep reminding myself to set up OnePoll! Thank-you.0 -

zoombucks is similar. i am wondering about replacing my earnings for sb. i have shopped on there etc and as a result done ok mostly. but it has cost me either time and/or money. (for things i needed anyway). I am trying to work out how i could earn the same on other sites that do not have the issues that sb have ( or have them far less). I know we are all on DooYoo and that has potential to earn above and beyond what SB gives but for people who do not like to write what is the alternative?
i am thinking out loud btw...Originally Posted by easylife73:

Making money online falls between:
surveys, PTC (ads), search to win, reviewing, article writing, mystery shopping (not really online, but you get what I mean), ad revenue (for site or blog), or selling stuff...
... sans more dubious stuff which I am sure goes on. You can see what a big chunk of the market SB has.0 -
