There are a lot of members throwing away free ad credits and I want to ask everyone that reads this to help make sure the people in your network / groups are aware of the following. Help them make the most of APSense. That is after all what networking is about, people helping people. In your members area when you go to your "My Account" page you have the section "Recent Bulletins". By reading these you gain extra Ad credits that you can use in the "Ad Network" section of your members area to get your ads and banners shown to other members. I know many are not taking advantage ot this source of free credits just by looking at the number of views that the bulletins have had that I see in my members area. Many of the bulletins have only had 30 – 40 views out of possible hundreds. As a hard example there are over 1000 members that will have the bulletins that I post, and the bulletins my direct referrer post, visible in their “My Account” page, yet these posts have less than +-50 views. This means that less than 5% of the members are taking advantage of the free credits they could be earning. I am also sure some are not running the APSense Express. This is also a valuable source of ad credits. You earn 1 credit for every 15 minutes you have the APS Express open. As an example my PC is running 24/7 and is only switched off for a reboot every now and again that means I am earning 96 ad credits everyday just for having the APS Express open and running, even if no notifications happen to come in for a couple of hours or more. The APS Express is not intrusive and is actually a very good way to keep track of not only replies to posts you have made, but also to let you know when someone makes a post in your group so that you can go and respond to it. Add these credits to the others you make from your other activities and they soon mount up, giving you more advertising power. The credits can be used for text ads and banner ads, which you can create, by going to the Ad Network section of your member’s area. I hope you find this helpful in increasing your free credit earning power and so increasing your advertising power here in APSense

Popular  Hi Joseph, For the credits this has been superceeded by this article. http://www.apsense.com/subject/18631.html We dont get credits any more and those that we did have were converted to cash at the rate of $1.00 per 1000. Each Saturday night our spotlight score is reset to zero and the top ten for the week are displayed. on the networking page. the current leaders are not displayed any more so it will be interesting to see who gets on th elist on Saturday night. As you earn more honor points during the week your new honor points are added to the spotlight score as well as to your total honor points each day at server midnight. Hope this clarifies it for you.

Thanks BJ, you answered another question of mine, as usual. So Thanks again. Margie

Hi Margie, Happy to be of help, I am sure many of the members just don’t realize how many ad credits they are losing by not doing the two simple actions I have posted about. It does not take long to read the bulletins but it seems many log in post their posts most of which are just pure ads and log out again not taking the time to fully explore and take advantage of all there is to offer here in APSense.

Hello Bill, The electronic translators are ok as a base but they translate word for word literally and that doesn't always make sense in the French. Sometimes I roll about laughing at the translations French to English or visa versa. I didn't roll about in this case but it would have been better to say: Veuillez s'assurer que vous faites circuler ces informations ou diriger des gens vers ce fil. Hope I'm being helpful here. It's the teacher and proofreader in me. Can't resist getting the red pen out! Bonjournée, Sarah

Hi Sarah, I have to admit it didnt look right thats why I put the source, figured I would cover myself on it. lol Even though I live in Belgium I can not read french very well and as for writing it - forget it. I can understand and speak enough to get by but its nothing to write home about as they say. I have always lived in the flemmish speaking side and I even think in flemmish so I can switch between english and flemish without having to think about it.

Hi Joseph, Well some of the things have changed this last week especially the free credits situation and placing Free text and banner ads using credits. As soon as the dust has settled I will re write the three articles covering these subjects.

Oh good Bj, I have been waiting for you to weigh in on this new Apsense. I am not real sure I want to start paying for ads and how in the world do I know where to put the ads where they will get the most traffic. And who in the world would want to advertise on my little pet site??? But I will continue on, and see how it works. Margie

Thanks a lot. I know I read that, but when you are new to something like this network, a reminder is always helpful.

Hi Bill, l do have my Apsense Express open 24/7 but l don't seem to get any additional credits add to my account. Makes no sense to me l look at all of my scores as often as l log in, so l know l am up to date with all of my reports. Also when l look at my SPOT LIGHT record it indicates l have 14 points and l have not made the board other members with less points are a head of me so l could be a little confused or perhaps they don't like me......:(..............perhaps you may have an answer or two for me would greatly appreciate it....Once again thank you for providing us members with solid information!!!
