July 2008 Big Crumbs Earnings

Bcarter — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 12:27:22 +0000

In my daily routine of things, Tuesdays I’ll be posting about Big Crumbs which is one of my favorite ways to earn money online. Of course, once a month will be my update on earnings from this great website, but I will also post my ideas, tips and tricks that have worked for me along the way.

This month’s update is a little overdue, but I did lose my way a little during August. July was an another good month for earning Big Crumbs referrals as I added another 10 people to my downline. Thank you to all that signed up under my username.

My referral earnings were down a little from June to $18.18, but August is really looking up. I really think that Big Crumbs needs to send out reminders a little more often than they do. Maybe updates with coupon links or sales that affiliates are running. I don’t have much more to say regarding my referral earnings, so this post is going to be quite short.

If you are a member of Big Crumbs already, I recommend purchasing a domain from GoDaddy or your favorite registrar and forwarding it to your referral link. If you are already a member of Big Crumbs, check the Big Crumbs retailers, to see if your favorite registrar is available. If they are not, contact Vince and he will check and see if they can be added. If they are, buy your forwarding domain through the BC link and you can earn cash back for your domain purchase. Double and triple check your forwarded link to make sure it’s correct, check back next Tuesday to find out why.

Big Crumbs Results for June 2008

I realized the other day that I didn’t post an update for my Big Crumbs earnings for May. They weren’t bad, not great, but not bad at $11.41 for the month. June turned out to be much better as you can see below:

On top of this I also earned $26.13 in cash back for myself; $22.50 of this came from Let’s Talk when I renewed my contract. Not bad for something I was going to do anyways.

My tip for the month is to remember that Big Crumbs offers cash back for purchases from GoDaddy.com. If you purchase your domains from them, then you may want to check into this great site to earn some rebates on your domain purchases.

After all of my cleaning, I am finally ready to start the spreadsheet needed for my contest. There will be two parts to this and one of them will take a little manual tracking on my part. Stay tuned for more details.

February 2008 Big Crumbs Results

I can’t believe February has come and gone already, but here we are in March again and it’s time to take a look at my earnings from Big Crumbs for February. This is one of the few referral programs that I participate in because it doesn’t take a lot of time and it ties hand in hand with selling on eBay. I always wait a couple of days before reviewing my results because they tend to back post earnings due to the commission reporting of some affiliate programs. Now, without further ado, here are my results that will be paid to me in April.

My results are a little worse than what January brought, but the total overall sales are more, which is a good thing; hopefully more people are remembering to click through before making their purchases. I’m sure the variance in earnings occurred from people shopping on different sites with smaller cash back percentages. Also, for the first time in my 15 months as a member, my 1st level referrals have the highest purchase total. This is a result of my direct referrals growing from 43 at the end of January to 57 at the end of February. I know, it’s still a long way to 1,000,000, but I’ll keep plugging. On top of the $23.55 from my referrals, I will also be paid $1.37 in cash back from my own purchases.

Please note that these results may not be typical earnings with Big Crumbs as I have been a member for just over 15 months now, but they don’t care if you’ve earned $1 or $10,000, you’ll be paid out what’s owed to you.

January 2008 Big Crumbs Referral Earnings

I have been in a debate with myself whether to post about my earnings with Big Crumbs here or not. I think I’m going to start a post monthly regarding this, I have seen other people do something similar with their Squidoo results for the month so I’m going to go for it. I would like to point out that my results may not be typical, but I do want to make sure that anyone interested in Big Crumbs knows that results like these are possible. You’ll see that I’m not filthy stinking rich from this, but extra cash that will be paid to me in March is always nice.

I really find it interesting that most of my referral commissions are coming from my 3rd and 4th level of referrals.

As far as working towards my goal of 1,000,000 people referred to this great shopping site, in January 2008 I had 13 different people sign up underneath me which brought me to a total of 43 direct referrals as of 1/31/2008. That leaves me with only 999,957 more to go. February is already off to a great start with 1 person signing up yesterday.
