    Have a look on the referers board and also the increase your income board as there is much more about clicks there. TBH you've largely missed the boat. A couple of years ago some clicks paid 10p a time, now most are 1p -2p a time and theres limits on how many you can do. The few remaining that pay more are reducing their payments. I used to be able to make £2.50 a day from an hours work on these. Last night I did a quick tally and I'm taking 2 hours to get £1 and it will reduce. But theres other things you can do if your desperate for every penny and have time on your hands. Check out the Slicethepie thread on the Increase your income thread and also mysearchfunds on the referers board (my referal link isnt on there but if you want to be kind to me, pm me and I'll let you have it). Theres lots of different things you can do but its always changing so frequent those boards and see what you could try, then try it and see if it works. In my time I've done matched betting (By far my biggest earner but you need to invest a lot of time understanding it - worth it if you have self discipline but not 100% risk free, more ike 98%), cashbacks, daily clicks, loyalty schemes, Ebay, amazon, stoozing, sweepering, survey sites, pigsback and a lot of others I wouldnt want to give away on a public forum. None made me rich but every little helps if your in a fix. It al depends on how you value / want to use your time but sorry, its small potatoes I'm afraid - so dont forget the saving OS board because you get good ideas there too. I'm always picking up new ideas and refining old ones, 95% of time from MSE forum, sometimes elsewhere. Good luck

    Thats good advice! She really is.

    I forgot to actually answer your question though...

    In simple terms. You join up with lots of cashback sites and then sit in front of your computer performing searches on the 2-12 comparison shopping sites they might offer you access to. You search for something you might possibly want to buy - I choose music groups mainly, Motorhead say - punch that into the search engine box on that site - and it presents you with a range of products you might want to purchase and links to the merchant selling it. You then "click" the link and visit the merchants site. Having see whats on offer you decide not to buy that and either close the box or if your really thorough move to another area of the merchants site to give them a fair crack for their advertising penny , then you close the box. The cashback site remembers you've visited that merchant (Most of the time) and credits you with 1p or whatever many months from now. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Each site has maximum numbers of times you can visit any comparison site and get paid, usually 1-5 times per day, it varies. You'll need a cookie cleaner as the sites record your visit on your computer with a cookie and will recognise you, then your tracking, the way the sites who pay you follow what you do in order to pay you, will get all messed up and you possibly wont get paid for many of your clicks. Do as it says above though, shes well helpful and if you join through her referal links shell be your friend forever too:D
