How many sites do you earn on?

I have noticed from time to time people mentioning other sites they go to, where they earn gift cards and money. Of course if your reading this Gather is one of them. I was wondering how many other sites you earn on besides Gather, and what they are. For me I have been on three sites. Gather of course is one, and the first one, I ever earned on. GSN is another. Which I am about to call it quits with once I can get something with the oodles (points) I have. Swag Bucks is the last one. And thats been a realllllll slow crawl! I use to do Video Squares. After I ordered my first gift card (which never came) it seems the site disappeared.

Thus far, Gather has been the first and best for me. Not so much because I've earned  much in the way of gift cards, but for the good people (most of them anyway lol). good read, tips, advice, you name it. There has been enjoyment, and the gift cards a bonus when I can get them. So what sites do you earn on? Any you recommend?

Egads Ryan! Theres two of you up there! And all I had was a Cola! LOL! Somehow you recommened twice. Most of my time now is spent on Gather. Ocassionally I'll go to Swag Bucks and use that as a search engine, and get bucks doing so. GSN has taken all but one gift card away, and all they have are crap I wouldn't pay a dime for. I keep hoping I can at least get a dvd there but all the ones they have had of late are ages old! This weeks dvd is Caddyshack. I mean really! I may end up just getting a subscription to National Geographic. It is a good magazine.

actually I am about ready to cash in for my second amazon.com e cert from swag bucks...make sure to log in daily and do the poll, and take 10 seconds to click on trusted surveys takes about 2 min to get 3 "bucks
also I do side tick, I make 50 cents there per day in about 3 minutes, am 2 dollars away from getting my first 25 dollar paypal cash out in about a month, and dont always have time to be obnline every day...i do ahem get referral credit.....also lets see i am an avid my pointer and do bzz agnet, also opinion outpost is pretty good....I am also part of pine cone research, make about 60 bucks a year on there, but ussually they have a closed list..anh whoo good luck!
dee b. Aug 15, 2010, 8:56pm UTC
I try to remember the poll on Swag Buck. As for the surveys I've had very little luck with them. They always tell me I don't qualify. I did serveral a couple of nites ago, and the same thing. I might consider soon Sidetick. Right now I don't have alot of time on here. Maybe after the summer.

Swag Surveys disqualify me 90% of the time. I guess they don't like Canadians. I belong to several Canadian survey sites and even got $50 from one of them.

As for sites like Gather, I still belong to MyLot, but they require a minimum $10 to payout.
dee b. Aug 15, 2010, 11:25pm UTC
Hell they don't like me either Walker lol! I'm lucky out of maybe ten I get two. But hey sometime I need a search engine, why not make points (or bucks) in the process?
Kathy D. Aug 15, 2010, 8:52pm UTC
I just joined Swagbucks a little while ago

dee b. Aug 15, 2010, 9:37pm UTC
Wow your a busy bee Leah lol! With work at best I could keep up with only 3 sites.
dee b. Aug 15, 2010, 10:36pm UTC
Gee I forgot to include my Rewards Port. I do next to nothing on it. Click on it, then off. It take awhile that way, but I spend very little time on it, and the points still accumulate.
William Dotani Aug 16, 2010, 12:59am UTC
The only site I use is Gather. I could care less about points. I use the points for Target cards and give them to friends in need or to my wife. I rarely buy anything and I think I went to Target once last year. As long as I can write and have decent food to eat, I'm satisfied. I'm not into materialism.
dee b. Aug 16, 2010, 7:06pm UTC
We are fortunate to have you on Gather Mr Dotani. I myself am not a materialistic person either. But the gift cards have helped defray the cost of work on this old house that may have not gotten done otherwise. For the most part with respects to Gather I have come to love the site, as much as the points.
William Dotani Aug 17, 2010, 2:47am UTC
I am loyal to my Gather friends, but frankly I do not believe very many appreciate me here. I am thankful for those who do. I realize I'm outside the mainstream, but all I want to do is write in an original creative way that is pleasing.

I worked hard once to get a $50 gift card to give as a Christmas gift on another site. It never came. So Gather is it for me....

Please listen to Rev. Creflo Dollar. He speaks truth without the politics of Satan.

Because of working on another site so much I was on Gather very little. When I finally reached the stage where I could order a card I did. It seemed rather easy. I waited and waited the card never came. When I was going to e-mail them of this I couldn't find the site. Others I had asked said the same. Evidently the site went belly up. All that time wasted. I would more than likely have been at cash out now if I hadn't wasted my time on that site. So far Rewards ports seems to be going pretty good and I don't spend very much time there. Perhaps a few mins or so a day. They do send thier cards, as i know someone who has cashed out recently.
Risa G. Aug 28, 2010, 12:39am UTC
Not too many. Gather, E-Rewards and I get a little cash from Pinecone.
William Dotani Sep 5, 2010, 1:22am UTC
Although my wife has a cataract in her right eye, she had to drive over 30 miles in the dark to get us home last night because I simply was in too much pain to drive. I'm very lucky to be able to afford to get drunk, which I'm now doing, but there are many in pain who have no one to help them. Our culture seems to think only about money as the road to pleasure. I am a very frugal person and culturally a Buddhist. The #1 objective of Buddhism is to end suffering. I am a Christian wondering why most Christians here only talk about political hatreds and forget to love others by ending suffering. I think the way many Christians act in the USA is a disgraceful repudiation of God's Holy laws. Without love for those in need, there is the hollow shell of hypocrisy and greed.

dee b. Sep 7, 2010, 6:25pm UTC
I only do two of those. Gather of course and Swagbucks. I will soon be eliminating one other site as it has become a waste of time. Once I do that I will try another. Right now 4 sites is all I can handle working full time.
Bridget Jean Sep 7, 2010, 12:18am UTC
Gather
ChaCha
Swagbucks
MyPoints
Pinecone Research
dee b. Sep 7, 2010, 6:27pm UTC
Seems many here on Gather also have accounts on Swagbucks. I have as yet to cash out from this site. And it looks like it'll be quite awhile before I do lol!
Nora D. Sep 7, 2010, 12:23am UTC
I do several.....Swagbucks, MyPoints, Memolink, Click IQ, Permission Research, GSN, MyView.com (my very favorite....I get surveys ALL the time), Viewpoint Forum, Reward Port Surveys, e-Poll, Government Research, and some others I can't think of.
Swagbucks has got numerous other ways to really boost your points/bucks.....the daily polls, then, besides the searches, you can do online shopping through the Swagbucks site, and they have lots of other things you can do. I just donated $$$ to a charity and earned something like 175 Swagbucks (within a few hours of sending the $$)........then I joined a book club through there and got 900 Swagbucks for that, etc., etc.......so they really have gotten lots of things one can do on there!!!! Oh.....and I forgot to mention I do Gather......LOL! Points here, though, are astoundingly slow, but oh well, I do much better with the others I mentioned!
dee b. Sep 7, 2010, 6:14pm UTC
Wow Nora you're one busy beaver! LOL! Some of those I never even heard of. I may make a list from some of these and give one or two a shot. I am trying to get something from GSN worth a hoot, then I will close that account. They have NOTHING worth a darn! Waste of time there. When I eliminate that one I will most likely try another. Can't be on too many sites as I have little time, and have an old desktop computer I don't want to put too much on. Certainly can't afford to replace it. Of course in time I may have too. When I can I might check out the price of a new tower or have another hard drive installed. Don't need to replace the monitor or keyboard, they function fine. This would be the cheapest alternitive.
I have a Swagbucks account and have been working on that as much as I can. My rewards port so far has been the easiest. Within the month I should be able to cash out there. As for Gather, it seems maybe another month or two. The slowest of the ones I have been working on. So far its been over a year since I last cashed out here.

dee b. Sep 19, 2010, 5:43pm UTC
Alot of people on Gather are on those same sites.
R B Sep 19, 2010, 5:55pm UTC
I think they all have "BIG BUCKS" earnings equaL to 25¢/HR.
dee b. Sep 19, 2010, 6:29pm UTC
Yeah it's true you won't make a killing on any of them, thats for sure! But some sites are better than others, and every little bit helps.
Angela Yuriko Smith Apr 13, 2011, 9:13am UTC
Wow... I feel like I just went to incentive sites college!
dee b. Apr 13, 2011, 6:36pm UTC
LOL! Yeah theres certainly hoardes of them in internet land. Some better than others. They do help cut cost for us. I've used all my gift cards for work done on our house.
Angela Yuriko Smith Apr 13, 2011, 8:51pm UTC
That's awesome! I am pretty new at them, I've done Gather casually for a bit, and I was just researching these for an article, but I found a few that I'll continue with, namely Squidoo and Microworkers. Can I mention and quote your success in my post on it?
dee b. Apr 13, 2011, 9:48pm UTC
I don't do nearly as many sites as some, and a few had gone belly up on me. The time just isn't there.I've heard of Squidoo, but Microworkers is new to me. All the sites I have been on where mentioed in post on Gather, by other members. Another reason I love this site, its informative.
You may mention and quote if you like. Thank you for stopping by, and if you ever learn of a good site, I would hope you share with other Gather members.
Angela Yuriko Smith Apr 13, 2011, 9:51pm UTC
Definately, and thx! :D I love Gather for the info sharing...
dee b. Apr 13, 2011, 9:54pm UTC
Your more than welcome Angela!
