Speed Up Your
Sweepstaking
With all the great
sweepstakes available at SweepsAdvantage, one thing sweepers always
want to know is: How can I speed up the process to enter more
sweepstakes quickly?
SweepsPop is an exciting new
tool for SweepsAdvantage members who want to sweep even
faster. Instead of having to click in and open each
sweepstakes individually, SweepsPop will open a number of sweepstakes
at once. You still have to fill out the entry forms, but
since they're now loaded and waiting for you, SweepsPop is a real time
saver.
Here's how it works:
1. At the top of
the page, look for "SweepsPoP" in the upper right corner.
2. Mouse over
"SweepsPoP" and begin by picking "Enable SweepsPop Boxes".
3. When the boxes
appear in front of each listing, check off the sweepstakes that you
want to "pop" open. If you have a fast computer connection
that can easily open lots of windows, you can opt to "Check All
SweepsPop" which will open up to 20 sweeps at once. If your
computer processes information more slowly, try opening only 5 or 10 at
once instead.
4. After you have
checked off your boxes, click "Launch SweepsPop".
Kazaam! All the sweeps you have selected will open on your
screen. Fill out the entry forms and sweep, sweep, sweep!
5. Go back up to
"SweepsPoP" to uncheck boxes if you want to uncheck your
selections before selecting a new batch.
6. But wait,
there's more! You can also go to "SweepsPoP" to "Check
all SweepsCheck" or "Uncheck all SweepsCheck". If you're not
familiar with SweepsCheck, it's a quick way to mark off which sweeps
you have already entered.
Additional
Speed Tip - Autofill
SweepsPop is a great way to
get through the sweepstakes quickly, but how can I fill the entry forms
in even faster? The answer: use an autofill
program.
An autofill program is a
typing aid. It allows you to store information that can be
used to quickly fill out entry forms. Put in your name,
address, email, etc.. and when you run the autofill program, it will
take the information you supplied and match it to the entry form
fields. You still need to open each entry form, but an
autofill program will speed up your time by cutting down on repetitive
typing.
Some cautions when using an
autofill program:
* Use the autofill program
to fill the form, but do a quick read-over before submitting the entry
form. Autofill programs are good, but they aren't perfect.
* Autofill programs don't
work with Flash entry forms. You will still need to manually
type out entry forms that are in Flash format.
* You will need to type in
any security codes that are required.
* You will sometimes need to
answer additional questions on the entry forms.
Hey! The Rules
said I'd be disqualified for using a form filler. Won't I
disqualify myself if I use an autofill program? NO.
Autofill programs are typing aids. You are still visiting the
site and seeing what the sponsor has to offer. You are still reading
and filling out the form. What sponsors don't like are 'bot
programs that crawl around the web entering sweepstakes on your
behalf. With a 'bot program, a human does not visit the
contest site. Humans are allowed to use autofill programs to
help with their typing.
