The essentials of Swagbucks - in my eyes anyways
1. referrals - for each person that is your referral you get matching SB they win on searches to a max of 1000 per referral
2. tool bar, polls, NOSO - 3pts daily
3. trusted surveys - if you have not gotten one in awhile, update your profile
4. special offers - surveys - I always complete the 4/5 of them daily - I mostly don't get to do any of them daily but I still try
5. swagbucks tv - i have this open in a separate window while at work and switch back and forth if I am not busy every 40 secs to click on a new video (10 videos gets you 3SB)
6. open a different window and ALWAYS search using the tool bar
7. I ALWAYS hit the daily goal to get the extra SB bonuses
8. SB bonuses released threw the blog, widget etc (usually gets me at least 5SB bonus codes, some days multiple codes are released but are time sensitive)
Some people play the games but I don't understand them!
Hope that helps - you are usually on during the day so if there is a SB bonus code I can pm you ;)
P.S - just realized that there was a extra number in my signature - should have read 1529 and counting for today ;)
