Going After More Points

How are you going after more points?  You could spend your time chasing more points any way that you like.  The online searching for information is one of my favorite ways to get more of them.

This is just a simple task that happens everyday, so it makes sense to get some form of return for the searching that you are doing online anyway.  The task might be accomplished by pulling up a specific search page or by installing a toolbar for easy searching.  This is a quick way to get started.

The rules for online rewards programs can vary, so read the information provided.  Some of the rewards programs might have some daily limits on the number of searches that will get credited to your account.  Some rewards sites will make it easier or harder to get rewarded for searching.  This is where you can find the best ways to use your time.  If you are finding it really difficult to get points for searching with one program over another, it would be better to spend your time getting the better results.

Getting more rewards points might also be picked up by doing online surveys.  The survey point values might be different.  The time that it takes to complete a survey can be a big factor.  You don't want to waste a lot of time doing a survey that doesn't give you high point totals.  Some rewards companies will give you an estimate on the time that it will take to complete the survey.   This can be helpful when you are making your decisions.

One more option that is popping up on rewards sites is getting points for shopping. This is not something that is really new.  It seems like more companies are getting in on this whole rewards program option.  The great thing about going after these types of rewards is that you might be buying from stores that you already use.  It could be like an added bonus for buying stuff from the places that you already love.  

Getting more rewards for shopping is great.  Do a little bit of homework to find the good online rewards sites and see if it makes sense to use them.  Are you shopping online?  Are you pulling up search engines everyday to look for information? You probably said yes to both of those questions.  Why not get a little bit of something for it?
