Are new members still getting the high targets? Or are they now the same as everyone else?

I'm fairly new (January start)

My target tends to be 70/80/100 depending on the day. - Today it's 80, yesterday was 90, the day before it was 70. I was never aware I had a higher target than anyone else taking part- everyone, including a couple of pals that do SB's seemed to have the same.

I've noticed I'm not getting as many surveys as I did at the start. I also had odd occasions when I used to get massive (42 sb) search wins, but that hasn't happened for a while.

Having said that, in the first couple of months I'd be screened out of a survey because of age or something like that, and that doesn't seem to happen as often. Makes me think SB is getting more used to my profile if you see what I mean. Peanut Labs seems to like me a lot more than SB's itself

Weekends are usually diabolical. I've only just started doing tasks. I tried them a couple of times when I was new and kept getting the "accuracy" error no matter how hard I tried, and also the "you have to visit the site" error. They worked for a few days earlier this week and last week, and now I'm back to errors again Heigh ho. Such is life!

Looks like you joined before the high targets started, Some recent members were getting 300+ as a target *sigh*

That would have put me right off I'm afraid. I struggle to make target as it is some days particularly when I was doing shift work. A high target like that, wouldn't strike me as a challenge, more something to feel resentful about. I would probably have tried for a couple of days and then shrugged my shoulders and carried on with the valued opinions/global test market surveys I've been doing for years. A high bar can be self defeating.

Phew. Thanks

I'm enjoying using a different part of my brain. I have a long way to go compared to lots of reviewers. I also try to include a little of my personality into each of my reviews. My latest, on internet sites, probably demonstrates this fact best.

I must say, I love DooYoo. There are a lot of people who have been on that site for many years, and some very talented writers.

I don't know how the cashing out thing works yet, nor even what each DY mile is worth lol. But I have faith that this will all come to me

Can't see that anyone replied to this, but 10 dy miles = 1p. £20 = 20,000 miles. Average rev is 30p - 60p with reads varying from 1p to 2p. Dooyoo lounge pays nothing for revs, and reads are only 1p.

That would have scunnered me. :eek:
I didn't make the monthly targets in January (because I only joined on the 2nd) but did in February and March. I won't for April as we were away in Italy for a couple of weeks holiday and while I admit to trying to do some swagging, all the offers were in Italian, so were the ads and the only things that actually worked were the daily polls. NOSO just refused to work at all. Not surprising really. I'm fairly pleased though having made about £120 in amazon vouchers in the four months. I'm using them to gradually buy my nursing books for the course I'm going to start in September.

I'm still logging on getting really low targets. Around 30 most days. I'm waiting for 10 pound to be paid into my PayPal account.

I work full time so I'm happy to log on every day do the odd survey if available. Hopefully aim to earn 10 pound per month.

Wow! 320 as a target?!? Glad I missed that wave of madness. I refuse to download anything or complete offers that require my full contact details, including mobile, bra size and what I had for breakfast- not giving out stuff I can't send straight to my junk mail inbox. With that rule, I usually only just make target and have struggled a couple of days this week. Do not see how you could make 300+ without drowning in junk mail, getting calls all through the night and knackering your computer with spyware/adware- totally ridiculous.

In good news though, just did the DS on eating out and TS on financial products, both credited straight away =177/90 for today
