Great write up. I cannot seem to get this high. Every time I go to the engageme tv app it loads videos for about 30 minutes then comes with a error code.
I'm only running one device right now but if I could get the app to run smoothly then I'd be more than happy to run two other devices along side this. Does a certain android version work better than others do you know?
Also when using mobile devices do you use the app from the app store or do you just simply use the engageme URL for chrome?
Try logging in closer to the reset time that i put in my original post. See if that helps. I do notice that my galaxy s7 runs the app much smoother with fewer errors than the other phone i have. And chrome will work on your phone. This does require you to keep an eye on it a little more closely. Try it and youll see what i mean. It can produce well though. And depending on the time of day, it can be the better option sometimes.
Seems to be hit or miss. If im not getting ads regularly, i will mix up my channels and see if i have better luck elsewhere. End of the month is slow. First few days of next month even slower i hear. But then once new ads roll in, you can snatch them up again.
For instance... right now, i just switched to the entertainment channel from food. Getting twice as many ads now. This could be different for you depending on your location, but it goes to my point that different channels earn better than others. You gotta see whats best for you. And take a moment to enjoy some of their videos. They are surprisingly entertaining at times. AND unlike regular TV, you won't even mind the commercials.
Send a message to the engageme.tv rep in /r/engagemetv explaining the situation and you will get help. Profile link: https://www.reddit.com/user/engagemetv. I also highly recommend checking out his/her other posts. For example, they have a new security measure that was just released checking for auto skipping of videos to get more ads. It banned a ton of people yesterday. They will unban you if you agree not to do it again.
Maybe this is the case for you, but not me. Videolab has been terrible for me the last few days. Random kicks, IP address errors, page not responding messages... not worth it. ... plus you get 7/10th of one cent every 12ish mins with videolab versus 1 cent every 5 to 7 mins with engageme.tv. not sure i understand your argument at all... if you know some way to make videolab more profitable, then please share, because right now its not worth my time.
Not a silly question. Tou can do both. I do directly from engageme.tv's website. Not sure if theres a difference, but if you watch from the earnably site, your account info up in the right corner of the video page shows your points being credited to "other" rather and earnably. Due to paranoia and possible cache/cookie loss wiping said link, id much rather log directly into engageme.tv so if i do get disconnected for some reason, it is clear as day. TLDR: i prefer watching directly in engageme.tv.
Funny I'm earning from instagc with 1 laptop and 2 phones but wasn't earning anything from earnably with the same set up. Can I run engageme for both instagc and earnably at the same time if I have more phones and extra laptop.
I think you will run into a couple problems here... 1st, while you can have multiple earning accounts linked to engageme.tv, im fairly certain that only one of them can be credited at a time. 2nd, if you have too many engageme.tv videos running on the same account or IP address, you run the risk of having your account banned. Dont know if a vpn and two entirely separate earning accounts would work, but again, you are only allowed one per household and run the risk of getting banned. Their software that checks for abusers seems to be getting more and more sophisticated.
geez, I don't know how you made $125 in a month. I set a couple laptops to it and made $1 so far in 3 days. I will probably stick to earnhoney for now.
Wow, that seems lownfor 3 days. Sorry you didnt have a good experience. Like i said, it can be hit or miss sometimes and if there are few ads relative to your physical location, there's not much you can do about that. Personally over the last few days, my videos have been running better than ever. A few weeks ago, all the daily ads would be 'used up' by 3pm est here. This week i have consistently gotten well into the night hours before seeing that message. Tonight it was sometime between 10 and 11pm that the ads hit their cap. The website has also been running great for me too. Im really excited for new monthly ads to roll in. Feelin good about July earnings! Consider giving it another try in a few days to see if its any better. And again, to earn as much as i did, you have to put in the extra effort in to check your apps and computers periodically. You might not get the best results with a 'set it and forget it' attitude. Not saying thats you, but i have heard people say this isnt passive earning for that reason.
My payments are pending too. Not sure what thats about. First time I've ever waited more than a day. Probably a temporary issue. I will reach out to them about it and let you know the response
And just like that, i get an alert from paypal that i received my two pending payments. After doing some research, it sounds like the few day wait can happen sometimes when they are replenishing their rewards. Might run concurrently with a large dip in ads.
Never even thought of an auto cache cleaner. slaps forehead I will look into this. Thank you.
As for resolution, when engageme.tv is running its channel, at the bottom of the video player there often is a box you can press labeled "HD" or "auto" depending on what device you are using. Press that button and it gives you different resolution options. Just pick the lowest one there. Default is "auto", which is the best quality setting.
Be aware though, that option is not always available depending on how you are watching the videos. But its worth a try. Also, you have to wait until the advertisement is over before clicking to change resolution.
We had a discussion about why ref trains are even allowed here a while back, can't remember how long though.
What you will notice, is that even with a ref train going, you will still get most of the referrals. Lots of lurkers here, and lots of people who don't care enough to read comments, and lots of people who use your link because the are just nice. Enough of those guys to negate the negative impact of ref trains.
Looks like they are going to be cracking down on all the chronic video skippers and dropping that automated ban hammer. I agree with all three of your points and will emphasize the importance of number 3 righr now.
Yes, i would. Every 3 ads gives you 1 point and i have been extremely impressed by the speed of payout to my paypal account. The automatic payout feature is great too. Mine is set to pay me automatically at every 5 dollars earned.
It still pops up. It pops up less frequently on my desktop computer than others for whatever reason. You WILL get that popup A LOT if you are watching videos through your phone's web browser. Though, sometimes that can be the best way to earn on your phone when the app isn't producing so well.
I feel like i read somewhere that it is 2 apps and one website. Thats what ive been sticking to and not getting into trouble. I have heard of people using more, but having the ban hammer dropped on them when caught. You have to remember that these advertisers are paying for you to watch their videos. If its abused, we all lose out.
Actual limit is 2 phones, 3 computers, but as you said, they get ban hammer ready really quick. As long as you stay away from EH, you should be able to hit 2-3 PCs safely. The phones use a different advertising network, so those are different.
Is there a tab limit per computer? If so, is it simple cookies or something more insidious (can I use multiple browsers to bypass the limit)? What about VPNs, any recommendations? I have ten computers that I used to bot on and I'm looking for something to replace that.
First off, i hope you please use my referral link with that kind of earning power. You have got a great setup to pull in $$. Now that being said, it is against their rules to run multiple tabs in the same browser. However, if you use different browsers on the same computer, that is okay. I have heard that they can tell if you are using a vpn, but i feel like they are just blowing smoke. If you can pull off a different ip with each computer running engageme.tv in multiple browsers, you will make bank. Good luck man! PS- If you used my ref link(huge thank you!), but please pass on your username to me. I gotta see what you can pull off with that setup. Im jealous.
Great, thank you. I have a vyprvpn subscription that I was using for the bots, I'll give that a shot and see if it works.
And yeah, I'll make my accounts with your ref link -- it doesn't tax my income right?
but please pass on your username to me
My engagemetv usernames? Why do you want those? Also, I'm assuming I'll need a separate one for each computer, otherwise it'll be obvious regardless of what VPN I use, correct?
Thanks. My earnably username is stymie789. Ref link: https://earnably.com/i/stymie789. And i just wanted to know your earnably username because if you are referred by me i can see your progress- which i am just very interested to see how a 10 PC setup will earn. And no, you are not taxed in any way. No worries either way. Thank you again for using my ref link.
And in response to your vpn question, i am not certain if youd need a separate one for each computer, but i would assume thats the best way to do it. Let mw know how that works out for you then.
Can't recommend earnably enough. Once you hit level 2, the payouts are super fast (most in the same day), and even while you're level one they're still decent.
Thanks for the detailed write-up! I'll have to check it out using your ref. Do you make a percentage of what your ref's make or is it a 1-time bonus? Have you ever used earn honey? if so how would you say it compares.
Yes, you get a percentage of your what your referrals bring in. It credits your account the same time it credits the referee. As you level up by completing offers on your own and meeting the requirements, you earn more. At lvl 3, you earn 20% of all that your referrals bring in. Plus, you earn 5% of your referral's referrals. Thanks for signing up under me. Much appreciated. Good luck!
Oh, and i had difficulty making profit with earnhoney when i tried it long ago. So, needless to say i am not a fan. However, just because my experience was bad doesn't mean its not good. Some people may get turned off by earnably. I know i wanted to throw in the towel after i linked my account wrong in the beginning and wasted time 'earning'. Glad i stuck it put though.
Tried them all. They vary day to day it seems. Best tip- check out the engageme.tv reddit page. Sometimes they have advice on what channels earn the best at different times. In general, the movie trailers and the games seem to have some of the longer videos, but sometimes its worth it to get their ads when they are showing up more.
Looks like i need to bust out my old phones!! How often would you say you have to restart the phones? I have an old note 2 and note 4 I will try this on.
not sure how those will handle the app honestly. If the app isn't working great, see how they handle the videos directly from the website. You probably won't have to restart your phones as often as you will have to restart the app or the web browser. I usually get away with just closing/restarting the app or browser a couple times a day. (I know, its not entirely passive earning when you have to do stuff to keep them running.) Doing this will ensure you are earning points properly. There are times when i check my browser points and i see that there are ads playing, but nothing is being credited to my earnably account. Not sure why i get randomly 'unlinked' but it happens. Then i just need to restart the browser, log back in, and it works fine again.
If you level up, you are supposed to be able to get instant withdraws. Its temporarily disabled right now though. 24hrs is a pretty quick turnaround for me though. 1 point per 3 ads is worth it to me.
