Welcome to SA ~ we have tried to answer some first time questions and we realize that coming into a new forum can be overwhelming. Just remember that all of us were newbies at one time and that we probably had some of the same questions!!
Feel free to ask them here :D

notes are for you to put comments to yourself such as codes how many times you have entered etc. for your benefit to remind you of things about the sweep

I have somehow gotten confused about some things here. for instance now I can't figure out how to remove expired sweeps. Is there anyway I could speak to someone on the phone at my expense of course? maybe that would help.

[/quote ]expired are easy to move as they appear above your sweeps list and all it takes to delete them is to click on expired sweeps when they appear @ the top and click on remove all

You have to visit each site individually to enter. The check box is only for your reference.

Hi! Thanks for this opportunity to ask a question. I've been sweeping for more than 5 months now with virtually no wins! I average around 100 daily sweeps and do maybe 4 or 5 "one time only" sweeps every day...seven days a week! The only thing I can think of, that may be hindering my chances, is that I usually uncheck the boxes that say "send me emails" regarding their product or from associated sponsors...I really don't want any more junk email than necessary. I'm wondering if I'm wasting my time, if my entries don't even count, if I uncheck those boxes. What am I doing wrong?!? Marciatwin123

you dont have to opt in to win.  are you doing the instants? 100 really isnt alot. not if you want to win alot. I enter around 400-500 a day. everyday. some here enter more than that. Im not saying you have to enter that many to win. but to better your chances you need to enter more. Do the instants for sure. everyday. dont give up. the wins will come. good luck to ya. hope you have a win very soon.

You need to beef up your one time entries. 4-5 is nothing. Go to the home page and enter 20 pages of one times (the ones you want to win) a day until you get caught up. Then stay caught up by entering the new ones. You will win. Sweeping takes a lot of patience and persistence. 3mn, 500 a day!!!! I would go mad!  Here's to you!

it is possible that a sponsor would call, you just have to watch out for the ones that want information that is highly unusual. They may have called to make sure that you did enter the sweep in question!

Thanks 3MN and Wolfie for your great hints! I am doing more instants now. I had been doing them in the beginning but stopped in frustration. Also, Wolfie, I'm happy that I did think of your suggestion about doing all of the "one time" entries I could and then doing the new ones every day. I actually did that several months ago. How smart am I?  That's why I had been doing only a few every day now. I am upping that too!  Anyway....I actually got a prize in the mail this past Saturday! I won a computer game download! Let's hope I can keep up the momentum!  Thanks again, Marciatwin123

Hi everyone!  I need some help....is there a way to find sweeps with lots of prizes being given out? I don't mean instants...I just mean is there a way to search for amounts of prizes? I'm fairly new here, and am trying to figure this all out. Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!!!

Yes, I've done that but the preview showed raw HTML instead of the banner
I may have the HTML wrong or the preview doesn't show the banner as I'm expecting
