Swagbucking into 2018

You must be the exception rather than the rule. I haven't experienced the apps running smoothly for years. Judging from the comments I've seen too, I don't think many people do anymore. Most days I get 2sb from Lifestylz and that takes so long, with so much manual interference I want to top myself!

I also have no idea what nCrave even is, never had it, never will. Or a two-button watch?! The watch stuff is enough to also make you want to end it - hours just to get 3sb, having to manually move it along, blank screens, glitching.

I am reliant on surveys, 10sb from games, the usual to-do list clicks, an eventual search win with enough DQ sbs to make up the difference. With a very rare discover offer (alright at the moment due to the 4 or 5 1 sb Toro offers). Normally, when this works well I can get target in 20 mins max and 2nd target in another 10 mins. It's not worth spending any longer on the site.

I doubt I'm an exception but accept that there are glitches particularly with nCrave and there are times when the apps freeze. I usually hit a minimum of £75 worth of SB per month. I see the 2nd target as a bonus as I can be looking at 300 sb + {today its 290}.

The first target seems to have settled at 99 with the exception of Swagcode Frenzy days this is easily achievable but running the apps is a must. An example relatively easy route would be:

7 x apps x 10 each = 70 SB
5 x Play x 2 each = 10 SB
1 x D Poll x 1 = 1 SB
2 x Button Watch x 1 = 2 SB
2 X Toro 1-Click x 1 - 2 SB
3 x Watch 22 vid sets - 9 SB
1 x min search win - 4 SB
1 x survey fail - 1 SB = 99

Additions would be:

Surveys
Market research 1 SB tasks
Discovery opportunities
nCrave when working
Daily swagcode

I don't spend hours on it in real time but don't usually struggle as the apps run automatically. My daily first target has been 99 for days before then it was between 95 and 110 - the 2nd target fluctuates more. Hope some of this helps someone.

Thanks, I get similar amounts in much the same way. Watch sometimes freezes so I have the page set to 'auto-refresh', which resolves the freezing issue with no input from me. It was much harder to make target before we had the mobile apps!

When ascend TV works it's also quite good and gives me between 20 and 60SB for minimal effort.

I do sometimes have to remind myself that SB is all a bit of fun and not actually all that lucrative in time vs reward.

ETA: I make between £30-50 most months. £75 is impressive!

I tend not to notice the time as I'm generally doing other things. I am surprised how it adds up; have just checked and I got £888 in vouchers in the last 12 months. The monthly goal bonuses added about £82. The most SB I have ever got in a single day is around 500 (a fluke!). I avoid dodgy Discover offers like the plague.

Do you all have 1st targets of around 95 to 110 recently?

Mine is 80 today, all last week it was 70. In fact, it was 60 or 70 every day last month with the exception of a few days at 80. Last year, I was getting much higher 1st goals and they fluctuated more day to day, but then I didn!!!8217;t make my goal some days (for a few weeks) and it dropped to 40/50 each day for a bit. Now I always meet my 1st goal and have done for months, but it never goes above 80.

They must run algorithms to calculate the targets, I am pretty sure that I'm fairly typical with a 1st target in the 100 range. I missed the target twice last year when on holiday and the target dropped dramatically but soon rose to normal levels as I hit target again.

The target its possibly impacted by the amount individuals exceed it by.

Thanks

Not sure how much I need to exceed it by to get it to raise back to the higher levels it was at last year. Some days I only go over a little, but at least a few days a week I go further and exceed my 2nd goal too. This is pretty much as I was doing last year though too, so not sure what I’m doing differently....perhaps it’s not me and it’s them (changed their algorithm since last year).

I just got the World's shortest GTM survey, accessed from my gold survey page. Shows as 201804022 in the ledger. Watch a Samsung TV advert twice, takes less than 5 mins (says it takes 10mins) and pays 80SB. Hope some others can get it, to make target on a Bank Hol!

On Android the Apps have mostly all run ok for some time. They ARE very slow, but generally run through without need to move on or reset, I just keep an eye to see they are still running, but as I have wifi available for long periods of the day they are an easy and vital 70 SBs.

Same for me. The only real problem is the unskippable ad that sometimes stops it running.

Don't forget to search too. 3 wins is a minimum of 12sb a day and could be lots more.
