Although I do not have a freebie site of my own (YET!!!) you have to take into account if there's overhead, a company planning or presently involved in HUGE financial benefit idea's for 'traders'. I'd think it would be fair to assume a customer service driven site may even pay for the offer when the advertiser doesn't. Even if 99% of the time a miscredit is the trader's fault, nobody is perfect and that holds for the advertisers as well :-). I personally do not think every site should clone another "because it works" and is the accepted norm. I love (positive) surprises and wouldn't mind a few from certain sites. I weigh offer as you do green, but testimonials and service/customer loyalty score major points with me and 9/10 times that is what puts me toward a site. After all, business now-a-day needs long term relationships with it's customers and they usually take "odd" or "peculiar" measure to ensure they're clients are satisfied and expectations exceeded

Well to be 100% honest the reason some offers are higher some other places is from the freebie size. Some freebie sites do more business so they can get better rates. Other times sites fine a advertiser that give better rates and won't share them. I work hard to change this but its truly a task. My main focus is customer service because that is one factor I have full control over. I take great pride that you can search my sub-forum and have a hard time finding complaints on here. I can tell you it isnt' easy!

As for the crediting factor is this........if a person complets 6 offers and they don't get credit for one then that is a cost I usually will eat. On the other hand if a person doesn't get credit for two or three offers then I am less likely to give credit for that. Keep this in mind, in some for a one credit site if one offer doesn't go through and that offer is worth 1/2 credit then the site loses half profit. It is almost impossible to take losses on offers and pay bonuses out to users so that is where the business aspect comes in. Affiliates usually won't even look at the request so it is highly important for users to do the offers correctly everytime.

Last month one of my newbies being so eager to get started forgot to clear her cookies and did cash.moneybonanzas and she went GREEEN ;) and then she continued on to do the next site gifts.moneybonanzas still did not clear her cookies and got credited for the first offer!! by that time I have found out and kept reminding her to be sure to clear her cookies ;)

I have another newbie who did not have a computer at home and went to the library to do her first offer and it got credited right away!!! LOL LOL
Just out of curiosity, did they stay green? Most libraries use proxy servers and would cause anyone who logged into an IFW site to go red.
