I've decided to be a lot less generous with rewarding GetRef signup credits to people who join my programs. I've noticed with an awful lot of people, there entire activity in your program is join, then make credit claim. This pretty much defeats the object of getting them to join, and is also short sighted in their case.
I'd assume that the reason they are joining a program in these cases is merely to get credits and to be allowed to promote their own program, in order to get referrals. Are they wanting people to do exactly the same with them as they are doing with programs they join? I doubt it, I think they expect their referrals to be active. So, I think they should do what they expect others to do, and only join a program if they intend to at least try to be active.
I've put in my myLot program description at GetRef that, if you aren't active, you won't be credited. Still, either people aren't reading that, or they think merely joining a program - and that's the first, last and only time they visit it - counts as being active.

GetRef Gold Membership Update
My latest gold membership at GetRef has now expired. Results from this were not as good as the previous one.
At the end of the membership, I had 16.935 credits, $0.02 cash, 56 first, 9 second and 3 third level referrals.
Gain for the period was 1.7 credits and 13 first level referrals.

GetRef Gold Membership Update
I have already got another two referrals in my downline at GetRef from my latest gold membership. No credits earned from either as yet, but it's still early days.

GetRef Gold Membership Renewed
I've renewed my gold membership at GetRef today for $4.99. I currently have $0.02 in cash earned, 15.235 credits, 43 first level, 9 second level and 3 third level members. I'm making a note of all these to see how much they increase by the end.

GetRef Gold Membership Update



My gold membership at GetRef has just expired. During my gold membership, I received 17 random referrals (indicated in gold in the first screen capture). Three of these have, so far, earned me credits from their efforts.
In addition, I also have nine level 2 referrals and three level 3. I can't tell whether these were from gold member random referrals promoting their own referral link, but I think there is quite a good chance.
Finally. I earned $0.02 in income, as shown in the third screen capture. Not exactly massive, I know, but better than nothing. I also earned a number of credits from referrals efforts, although I didn't make a note of how many. Probably somewhere in the region of 16 or so. Enough to get a few referrals at some of the programs I'm promoting.
I'm not going to renew the gold membership immediately, although I will do it again at some point.

48 GetRef Referrals
I now have a total of 48 referrals at GetRef; 39 first level and 9 second level, although not all of them are currently active by any stretch. I believe that one of my first levels has purchased a gold membership, so is getting random referrals from that.You earn 10% of the credits earned by your referrals from joining programs, down to five levels deep.

First Second Level Referral at GetRef

I've just received my first second level referral at GetRef, which is good, as it means that one of my own referrals is actively recruiting. I think the new referral is also active, as I believe I've earned credits from them already, checking my credit balance.

GetRef Referrals Update

Well, it's been three days since I upgraded to gold membership at GetRef, and I've got three new referrals (the ones in gold in the screenshot). One of these has joined a couple of programs so far, earning me some credits. The other referrals were mostly generated through Adverbux, and the ones on a green background have generated a two credit signup bonus for me.
The gold membership referrals are coming in at the rate of one a day so far, so I may get about thirty in total from one months membership.

GetRef Gold Membership
I've just paid $4.99 by PayPal to GetRef for one months Gold Membership. This has a number of advantages, such as increased earnings and credits, but it also gives you the chance of receiving random referrals, which was the main reason I purchased it. It will be interesting to see how many referrals I get in one month.

myLot Referrals

I now have twelve referrals for myLot, all obtained through GetRef. Although the quality of the referrals does vary quite a bit, with some so far totally inactive, the active ones are now regularly generating more income for myLot than my own efforts.

myLot referral earnings for Thursday were double my own

Okay, this isn't as impressive as it sounds, as my earnings from my own efforts were only $0.01. Didn't find many discussions that interested me. Still, I now have 9 myLot referrals, all gained from GetRef, and some are starting to be a bit active.

GetRef Referrals

I've been promoting GetRef on Adverbux, using their Manual Action Ads. Using the manual ads, you can specify that you want the individual claiming credit to have completed an action before credit is given; in this case, sign up and be credited for a program at GetRef. This way, I will only give credit to people I have been credited for.
Seems to be working okay, although I think I should probably increase the signup bonus from $0.10 on the next promotion.

Buxit.info

One more of the current Paid to Click programs around is Buxit.info. I've currently got one referral at the moment, courtesy of GetRef, who has been somewhat active.
At the moment, the site is an incredibly slow loader; however, this is apparently being looked into and will hopefully be fixed.

myLot Referrals

I now have a total of four referrals at myLot from GetRef and I've now finally earned some referral income from one of them; a grand total of $0.01. Better than nothing, and they may well prove to be more active now.

myLot
Got another two referrals for myLot from GetRef, making three so far. Of the three, only one has shown any activity so far. Personal earnings from myLot now stand at $0.24, referrals still at zero, although that may change when earnings are updated tomorrow.

GetRef
I invested the 8 credits from joining programs at GetRef in MyLot to get referrals in that program, and just got my first sign-up. Haven't got anything from the other credits invested yet, but there are a lot of others promoting those programs, so I may need to up the credits used for each referral from the minimum of 2 to have any hope of succeeding there. With Mylot I was the only person promoting it, so 2 credits were all that were needed.

GetRef
GetRef is a program that you can join in order to get more referrals for a program you're promoting (out of a list of about 2,200). You can earn credits from visiting websites, joining other members programs and from referrals of your own, or alternatively you can buy them.
I've currently got one referral, and over 48 credits, 8 from joining programs and clicking links, and 40 that I purchased for $10. I've initially invested 30 of these credits in promoting Yuwie and Bux3. Now to see how it goes.
