    Lean end to the year and start to 2026.

    Looking back January always a poor month for me

    Rarely do the Tapjoy searches, save for emergencies then forget. Inspired by above thought I would just do 

    Just done 19 different paying search sites including 3 at 2SB.

    About 8 didn't dissappear done a second and third go and got 3 hits then 2

    I enter Tapjoy via "mores ways to earn" from the Daily Trivia app.

    jimbob, it looks like PC vs phone again.
    There seem to be only 4 Tapjoy searches available on PC, for 1SB each.

    17 of the sites paid 1SB today, don't think it ever used to be like this. How long have I been missing out on easy SB.

    Got a new phone therefore had to re-access everything including CPX.
    Compared new CPX with ye olde tabs on old phone, completely different, think @missymouse has commented on this before. Not good!

    The second, I don't know if 55 makes a difference, but I keep using it anyway. If I want to change my search term I change it in the address bar not in the search box, so I retain the 55.

    The f=55 url code has always been the key to getting search credits and it doesn't appear to matter what the actual search term is. Only need to keep refreshing any one f=55 page and you'll get the second win after approx 5-10 minutes depending on the speed of your connection/device in general. 

    Those Tapjoy searches through the Trivia app are usually pretty reliable 7 days a week too. Some may not always credit, but isn't much bother to click through the applicable ones on the list for a few minutes to pick off some easy SB that's always a handy start for getting up to the Daily Goal. I find they are quite less onerous for the time and effort compared to the videos that used to be on the site a few years ago anyway.

    29 x 1SB Tapjoy awarded, still a few showing but packing in for day. Should really do more detailed analysis on individual offers but too many and watching TV rather than looking at SB.

    My usual search term is 'sausages' but just this morning I tried some random gibberish for my fourth refresh and it worked just fine to get the first search win as normal 🤓

    Done a direct comparison of 'old' & 'new' CPX as surveys the same - new is 50% pay out.

    Shouldn't be surprised but only a couple of Tapjoy 1SB search wins work on new phone!

    It took me 76 searches to get to get the 2nd search win today, which took 10 minutes wall time (including a 2 minute break in the middle so 8 minutes actual searching). That works out at 6 point something seconds per search.
    First 35 searches were refreshing one of the links (f=55) followed by 41 searches refreshing the name of a local cafe (f=11). 

    There was a 105SB CPX available last night about flu vaccines for kids which was easy (and paid).

    Although generally it doesn't matter what we search for, I imagine they don't like people entering gibberish or repeatedly searching for the same thing many times in a row. 
    Don't know if they still take any action, like preventing people from getting search wins, but I seem to recall they used to, because we're supposed to use it like any other search engine and look for things we're interested in. Or at least not enter rubbish!
    Mind you, entering 'Rubbish' on the fourth go would probably be alright!

    I got 33SB for signing up to Free Spins King on the RevU wall. Sort the RevU offers by "newest" and it should be near the top.
    I did it yesterday just after 8am UK time with a disposable email, I never got an email asking me to confirm so i just assumed it didn't work, or I had to do one of the offers, or whatever.
    It just credited today at 2:07pm UK, so about 30 hours after I did it. 
    I'll take it  :)


    This is still working there on RevU. Similarly, I clicked through yesterday and the credit has shown up on my ledger tonight. Thanks  :)
