COPY THIS LIST AND USE AS YOU PLEASE: If ANYONE out there would like to take the above list, add their own referral links, and treat it as their own creation on their web site, blog, or anywhere else then I allow and encourage you to do so. The whole Idea of this list is to benefit and promote genuine ShiftCode powered sites and increase exposure of these sites. Please feel free to make the list your own! Only if you are going to continue calling a list of ShiftCode GPT sites please make sure that the list only contains genuine ShiftCode powered sites (common sense)
* site(s) noted with an asterisk '*' after their entry have been reportedly experiencing temporary difficulties of one type or another (unspecified here) and they are working on returning the site to full operation as quickly as the administration and staff of that site are able to (each site is independently owned and operated)​.

WARNING to Those ShiftCode GPT Admins Using the "GPTTweaks Easy One Click Facebook Promotion Mod"

Hello, this is Wesley B AKA 'Max P' the initial developer of the 'GPTTweaks.com Easy One Click Facebook Promotion Mod' - a short and simple (yet powerful) ShiftCode GPT script modification I originally posted freely on GPTTweaks.com  I personally consider that mod a great success and it appeared to work perfectly adding new features up until today when it is approaching a sunset in its usefulness.

Recently, I read an article (section 5) which details changes Facebook is making concerning their 'Facebook Graph API 1.0' which Facebook is discontinuing on April 30th 2015. Please be aware that the 'GPTTweaks.com Easy One Click Facebook Promotion Mod' uses the Facebook Graph API 1.0' as a backbone function relying on it to facilitate the one click facebook post promotion feature.

When April 30th has come then the effect to GPT sites still using this mod may be as benign as the functionality of the mod simply losing the ability to post predefined promotional posts on behalf of the GPT site member (and nothing else affected) BUT with the FB Graph API no longer there and responsive then there is the potential that this situation may cause the 'Refer a Member' page/script of ShiftCode GPTs with the mod still installed to error out (losing the Refer a Member feature of your GPT)

Yes, that would be bad enough (the page erroring out) but because I really don't truly know how ShiftCode script error handling really works exactly (it's always been 'behind the curtain' so to speak to outside coders) then errors on that one page may actually cause a site-wide 'SMARTY' error (an unhandled exception) In my own informed (somewhat) experienced (though intermediate and non-professional) coder opinion the chances of this relatively simple resulting error causing whole GPT sites to fail are remote (though still within the realm of possibility)

Hence, I am HIGHLY RECOMMENDING that ShiftCode GPT admins having GPTs that have this (one specific) mod installed start taking steps to return the mod affected code back to its original (pre-mod) state well before April 30th to avoid possible unexpected (or possible catastrophic - however unlikely) results!​

The one mod I am speaking specifically (and only) about it located here linked to from GPTTweaks.com:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1v_aX7EQTn8i3wuADBhijoxiM-u0VONuG-zlqly2bHuM/edit?usp=sharing​

I've suggested to William C (the current owner of the GPTTweaks site) to leave the link and information about the mod intact in order to assist those who wish to 'walk-back' their code step by step in reverse order (useful for those that have other modifications on that page/script that they don't want to lose by simple overwriting the modified page/script code with original ShiftCode code)

Though I've also suggested that an unmistakable warning be placed in proximity to that mod code and link that would warn NOT to install that particular mod on any new sties.

THE EASY FAST AND MOST EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATE SOLVE:

My main recommendation to correct any site using this mod would be to simply revert the modified code back to its original unmodified form.

This is actually the simplest way to make the potential issue go away. For those who followed the mod instructions entirely then you have retained a backup copy of the original code using the simple steps I outlined in the original mod instructions.

Simply overwrite the modded code in its entirety for that sub-script with the original unmodified code that was original to your site as was provided by ShiftCode (or that you had backed up prior to the mod application)​

For those of you who failed to back up the original unmodified code before you applied the code (as was highly recommended in the mod instructions) then don't worry that much (it's really not a big deal) All you would need to do is obtain a copy of that script's original code either from ShiftCode itself or from a fellow GPT admin that is running an unmodified version of that sub-script (should be pretty easy to obtain)

Perhaps current ShiftCode (company) administration could possibly provide the original code for the one sub-script available for download for those in need of it (just a humble suggestion / request that I think would be a kind gesture)
Either that or anyone that has such code handy perhaps can reply to this post making it available to copy from here (?) ​

I would have liked nothing more at this point under these circumstances to have been able to provide you all with a new and corrected version of the mod to simply replace it with but I haven't retained a test bed (my own ShiftCode GPT) that I could use at this point to properly develop a new version.
At that point I had a definite drive, passion, and enjoyment to improve the platform freely for the good of all ShiftCode admins. Today I still have drive and passion to help improve by way of still promoting GPTs and improving conditions for the site admin through my work at the affiliate network.

Please note that this issue ONLY affects that ONE mod - the One Click Facebook Promotion Mod!​

Rest assured that the other FREE mod available at GPTTweaks.com - the "MaxP Promo Codes Only for Active Members Mod" still works like a charm (restrict promo code redemption only to active members who have completed an offer recently based upon the jackpot system) and by my observations has been very successful and popular both with the admins and the GPT members alike.​

Ok, bringing this notice to a close I would like to offer my own personal assistance with any issues you may be having with removing the soon to be offending mod by making myself available for free-of-charge email based support (or replies here on the forum) during reasonable hours at modhelp@freecashpro.com

I'm happy to help with any questions or clarifications you have or need but do not expect me to make personal appearances on a site by site basis to do the actual work of physically removing the mod for you for free. If you are truly in a bind and don't know what to do then don't fret - simply email me and I'll assist as best I can (I'll honestly give it my best for you)​

If you are facing some type of spaghetti situation or basket case that requires a lot of my personal one-on-one hand-holding or if you simply can't accomplish the removal task by other way then I may be willing to step in and save the day though please do know that in those circumstances then my time and sanity are available for HIRE (though relatively cheap still) to make the problem quickly go away for you.​

 

Further background: Purportedly the reason why Facebook is sunsetting this API is that they no longer want external (to facebook) code "putting words in the facebook post-er's mouth" by predefining any of the content the third party developed script or app is posting in the facebook member's name via automated means (even if the facebook member initiated the causation of the post)

Commentary: I agree with the spirit of what facebook is seeking to do here (there's already way to much trickery and deception going on in the world with so many malevolent automated posting mechanisms) Though our simple helpful mod was the baby thrown out with the bathwater so to speak here
Since our GPTTweaks ShiftCode mod (above) used predefined content (whatever text you configured about your site when you installed the mod, the GPT member's referral link, etc) and was posting by automated means (even though the facebook member / your GPT member actually initiated the action of posting and it was actually acting as a convenience for the post-er) then that would fall into the facebook description of 'putting words in the post-er's mouth' and is a target as something facebook is seeking to stamp out by killing the API.
The newer APIs that are replacing the one they are removing revolve around new strict facebook rules that will force a script/app developer to get his/her code pre-approved by facebook and pledge to abide by certain best practices morals on how such apps/scripts should behave in relation to the facebook member.
Yes, I'm sad for our little GPT script mod but I really agree that facebook is going in a necessary direction with these new positive initiatives - don't you?​

ShiftCode GPT & Performa Network Paired Script Provider Service Companies Sold to Well Known and Liked Confident & Competent Purchaser!

 

Yes, a matter of days ago from today both popular GPT script provider and integrated affiliate network script / platform provider ShiftCode and Performa were sold as a a pair for an undisclosed amount of money to a well known and well liked mover and shaker in the get paid to site and CPA affiliate network industries.

ShiftCode continues to be the one most popular, well known, and trusted GPT site script the online get paid to industry has ever known.  Likewise, the fully ShiftCode GPT site script Performa network platform (also a script) get’s an infusion of new blood and ideas from the new owner.

The entire industry thanks all those involved in the original development, evolution, continual improvement, defense (don’t ask), and continuance of both of these superior platforms.

Genuine ShiftCode GPT Site Admins are Invited to Join Our Private GPT Site Admins & Staff Connect FB Group

If you are a genuine ShiftCode GPT site admin then you are welcomed to apply for access to our private Faceboo group only for GPT site admins & staff.  We call the group “GPT Site Admins & Staff Connect” and it’s classified as a ‘closed group’ which means that membership is not open to the public at large.

In order to be considered for entry into the group you must declare (and later prove) your connection to your specific GPT site(s) by sending an email to adminsconnectgroup@freecashpro.com in which you will list each GPT site you are either an administrator / owner or high level staff at while also providing a link to your Facebook profile and listing your name.

If you are indeed a GPT admin then you will definitely find this group extremely helpful.  Our group currently is populated by over 50 fellow GPT admins.

Enhancing the Look and Readability of Your ShiftCode GPT Site Offer Listings Using Simple HTML Techniques

The ShiftCode GPT script often astounds me with its power and flexibility.  Today I simply got curious and decided to test and see what, if any, HTML elements I could add to a standard offer listing.  While I found out that there was nothing whatsoever I could do with the offer title, the offer ‘Requirements’ field is a whole different story.

Instead of piecing the instructions out for each tag used I thought it may be better to give you some credit for being able to figure it out from an example along with the code I used (below)  Please note that while we are entering HTML code into the requirements field then I am not using the actual ‘HTML’ box also available there (explaining that would be much more complicated since in that box you are also including the HTML code for the actual offer mechanics as well)  Yes, I added all of this (following) code into the one-line ‘Requirements’ field.

Enhancing Your ShiftCode GPT Site Offer Listings is Simple Using Standard HTML Techniques!<hr color="#000080" size="1" width="66%">For example, adding text in <b>bold</b>, <i>italics</i>, <u>underlined</u>, <strike>strikethrough</strike>, colors (<font color="#FF0000">Red</font>, <font color="#0000FF">Blue</font>, <font color="#00FF00">Green</font>) and _sub/^superscript is a nice way to add a little flavor to your plain Jane listings.&nbsp; Also, please note that ShiftCode also apparently allows you to add <a href="http://www.Disney.com/">hyperlinks</a> and images such as this smiley <img border="0" src="http://paidthebest.com/images/shout/emoticons/tongue.gif" width="20" height="20" hspace="2" vspace="2" alt="Smiley Face Description" title="Smiley Face Description"> face that I borrowed from my shoutbox.&nbsp; Another interesting thing is the use of bulleted lists such as this list below:<br><ul><li>List Item One</li><li>List Item Two</li></ul>

Please note that when I enter this text and HTML code into the ‘Requirements’ field that each and every actual line break will result in a line break in your listing so every time that you hit <return> in your code means that it’s dropping down a line.  Instead I avoid hitting return and simply edit the entire code block as a single line and I insert “<br>” to introduce any hard line breaks when I want them.  The above code example if I were to paste it into notepad with ‘wordwrap’ turned off then it would equal one extremely long line of code with no breaks though be aware that there IS a line length limit that I ran across eventually here.

Technorati Tags: html,code,shiftcode,gpt,offer

Afterthoughts:

1. Changing font faces (Times New Roman, Georgia, etc) doesn’t seem to work as well as anything using a “<span>” tag or “<p>” (paragraph) tag.
2. A long time ago I got used to using the now outdated severely Microsoft FrontPage 2003 HTML editor to easily produce WYSIWYG (like a word processor) HTML results.  If you are the creative type then yes, FrontPage is still available for download here and there online (though I actually purchased it back in the day – so I don’t feel bad)  Also, there are other very good HTML editors that are still supported and available for download available more legitimately today.  But remember folks, this is all oh so simple and the HTML tags are documented well all over the internet (just Google them)  Yes, if I had to figure this all out off the top of my head without an HTML editor then yes, that would be fine with me only it would take much longer.

Use Your ShiftCode GPT's Built In Banner Advertisement Features to Manage Ad Space on Your Other Sites and Blogs !

No, your banner rotation and side panel ads that are currently only displayed on your GPT site are not stuck being ONLY displayed on your GPT site - there are so many other possibilities if you just apply a bit of creativity and a bit of coding savvy to the situation.

Not only can you start selling ad space on other web sites (that you own or have coding access to) on your GPT site but you can also add much greater value to the ad space your are already selling on your GPT by also being able to promise the prospective ad space buyer that their ad(s) will also simultaneously be displayed on other popular sites as well.

PROJECT COMPLEXITY – INTERMEDIATE
(Probably Not for Total Newbies or Complete Coding Beginners)

In this article I will focus on the 'Side Panel' ad function but these techniques can easily be adapted to the 'Banner Rotation' function as well.  In fact with the Banner Rotation function you have the added flexibility of multiple ad banner rotation 'Groups' with which you can even separate out for ad purchasers as being targeted to specific sites or groups of sites where their banners will be in rotation other than on your GPT!

Ok, for starters, let me show some examples of how the side panel ad group will appear on multiple sites as I have them configured now: Below, first here is how the side panel ad group appears on my own GPT site (within the members only area only (you must be a registered PaidTheBest.com member in good standing and logged in to see the side panel ads) as I currently have it configured)  Then there are the additional places those very same side panel ads are automatically appearing since I've added them to these other sites (click on the images to actually go to the site at the position they appear):  

The Side Panel Ads As They Already Appear in Standard Manner on My Own PaidTheBest.com GPT

The Ads in the Right Side Panel of HomeCash.org

The Ads in the Left Side Panel of FreeCashOnlineTopSiteList.com

The Ads in the Left Side Panel of GetPaidTo.org (only with a different background – accomplished by simply making another new ‘ads page’ on your GPT that has the different colors and/or background and then referencing THAT page in the iframe statement on that specific site)

The technique we'll be using to make the side panel ads appear on the other web sites involves making one (or several - if needed) new pages on your GPT site that ONLY displays the side panel ads widget (only) and then we'll be creating code on your other web site(s) that will show only the portion of your new GPT site page containing the ads using the  HTML tag iframe A few things that I want to mention first here that are either things to keep in mind while constructing your 'flavor' of how you're doing this or are options to consider so that you can gear your roll-out in a certain direction:

• You can either stick with a single ads page in a generic 'vanilla' style (to reference on all the site(s) you’ll be adding the ads to) or make multiple new ads pages to accommodate the themes (colors and background, etc) on each site you'll be applying the ads to.  
• You have the option of making the ads purchasable outside of your GPTs member area (ad customers don't need to register or log in to your GPT site in order to just make the purchase and add the ad banner specifics) but I would NOT recommend this as if someone does make an ad purchase this way then they'll have no way of checking the ad's stats, editing the ad in the future, changing the ad to something completely different if they so choose in the future, or conveniently extending extending the ad just by paying for more time (rather than having to  re-enter the entire thing)
  
  The instructions I provide (further below) will be geared towards having the purchaser register as a GPT member before purchasing ads though if you would like to open up non-member purchases simply un-check the "Members Only: Yes members only can purchase ads" under  Admin Panel > Side Panel (lower left side menu) > Configure  
• While you are on that page (above) [Admin Panel > Side Panel (lower left side menu) > Configure] then take a look at those other options.  I'd' suggest setting "Members only" as checked (see above), "Ads" as "Images Only" (just to keep the amount of space the side panel widget takes up more constant and predictable), "Advertisement Link" to "Auto Fill" so that it shows the 'Advertise your banner here.' link ins unfilled spaces, "Force 120x60" DEFINITELY CHECKED, and "Randomize" I'll leave up to you as to what you prefer - Don't forget to hit "Update" to save your changes - all as follows:
  

The Actual Procedure:

1. In your GPT's Admin Panel in the lower portion of the right side menu then find and click on 'Pages'; and
2. In the top left of the page click ‘Add Page’; and
3. In the upper ‘General’ area generally do this (below) Note that the ‘Path’ and ‘Name’ entries are whatever you’d like for them to be though we want the ‘Template’ to be ‘None’, the ‘Edit Mode’ to be ‘Textarea’ (for entering code) and the ‘Access’ to be ‘Everyone’:
   
   
4. Ok, here is the code that I put into my page but you may want to edit a few things (like the URLs referring to my PaidTheBest.com GPT, the background image URL (don’t leach off of mine! …or I may just change that image to a porno pic if I notice people leaching from my server – lol) but seriously, here is my code for that new page that will show ONLY the side panel ads section on basically an otherwise blank page:

   </body>

5. Note: Yes, there is a lot more code than is absolutely necessary above but I thought that some may want to customize the extra code and ‘make it theirs’ so I left it in.  The extra text statements in there may be entirely omitted but whatever you do don’t get rid of the  <head> section (shich makes the ad links open in a new window by default for the whole page – instead of the links opening up within that little iframe window (oops)) and the <body> statement (which zeros the margins, etc.)  Also, the ‘include’ code line in black font color and bolded is the meat and potatoes (absolutely necessary) statement of this whole code (that is where the actual side panel widget is called up.)
   
   Now the main gist of the above page code is to display the side panel ads in the upper leftmost area of the page (with zero margins) and NOT USING your GPT site’s template (unless your GPT site’s template is the same as the scheme on the page on the other web site that will be displaying your ads – fat chance)  You want to adjust the background color or image on this new ad page to blend in with the theme of the page you will be displaying the ads on.  You also want the zero margins so that when you code the iframe window on the other site that will in effect be peeking through to this ad page that the dimensions and location of these ads are predictable and basically remain the same – get it?  So here is the resulting page from the above code (adjust things as YOU need them for your needs – this is what I needed (if you need help with adjusting this stuff then feel free to contact me and I’ll help as I can):
   

6. Another thing is that you should be able to view your new page while not being logged in as a member on your GPT now.  For example the above page for my GPT can be viewed by anyone (even you – now) at:  http://paidthebest.com/adpage  (try mine and then try yours)

7. Ok, with that one part of creating the new page done then let’s switch gears over to the site where you want the ads to appear (most likely in the side panel of that site)  I’m going to start with a new heading and a new list of steps for this new part of the project (though know that the harder parts of this project are over if you’ve reached this point) – congrats!

ADDING YOUR ADS TO THE NON-GPT SECONDARY SITE

Ok, since all of the steps above led towards my adding my GPTs side panel ads onto the side panel of my GPT referral blog HomeCash.org then it only seems logical to me to continue with the demonstrations pointed there.  Ok, please take a look generally at my site at http://www.HomeCash.org then take a look specifically at the place in the right sidebar where the GPT sidebar ads start (which conveniently will be here):  http://www.homecash.org/#ptbads (no big trick, I just inserted a HTML ‘bookmark’ tag just before the ad code there.

That little bookmark code (above) only amounts to this <a name="ptbads"></a>) though it’s NOT a necessary part of this project – but it COULD BE handy if you want to direct your prospective ad buyers on your GPT to the site(s) at the position where their ads will appear (wink)) …more about this little HTML URL bookmark trick later.

Notice where the ads are placed on the sidebar.  Decide where you want to place your similar sidebar ads from your GPT.  Ok, now were down to editing code on the new target site.  Now not being psychic (at least with YOUR source code, script, or site) I cannot tell you where to place the code for the ads when you are likely staring at all that gibberish ‘Greek to me’ code (depending on what coding level you’ve reached) but I can tell you that if your target site is a popular free script based site such as Blogger.com, or a WordPress site (or the like) then this may be a whole lot easier on you.  With those types of script based sites then all you have to look for what’s called a ‘gadget’ (that’s named “HTML/JavaScript” in Blogger.com) or a ‘widget’ (that’s simply named “Text” in WordPress) ad add them to your sidebar in your layout and then add the code into the gadget or widget after that.

Ok, getting down to the code (which is actually really simple) and short but is does a lot!  Ok, are you ready – here’s the code:

Yes, that’s right, you would need to replace the URL of my site “paidthebest.com” with the URL of your site (and page name if it’s different than ‘adpage’) but basically that’s all that’s to it !

Also, if you want to be able to have a URL bookmark reference the exact position where these ads start on the site you are adding the ads to then add this bookmark code just above the code up there (on top of the <center> statement): <a name="ptbads"></a>    (oh, and you can rename “ptbads” to anything you want)   Then to call that bookmark (like from where you are telling your ad buyers about where their ads will show by posting a link)  simply call it like this:     http://www.yourssitecontainingtheads.com/#ptbads  …and it will take them right to the start (top) of the ads and all you have to do is to tell them to look left or look right.

All done!  Now go and test it out and if you have any problems that seem insurmountable then don’t worry!   Simple, non-site specific questions?  - Please feel free to either post a question in the form of a post below the facebook post where I mentioned this modification (whatever / wherever brought you here)  OR post a question in a comment to this blog post here on GPTTweaks.com…

Ok, feel free to either consult your own favorite local coder or (as a last resort please) you can email me at gpttweaks@freecashpro.com (telling me your GPT site name & URL, your own name, and all the details (including any error messages or places where you’re confused – and I need specifics here before I even begin to think about what your issue may be or even contact you back!)

If you feel like more than ‘saying’ thank you then yes, PayPal is much appreciated and graciously accepted in any amount large or small (all is appreciated) at admin@paidthebest.com – Thank You !

 Enjoy !

_{P.S.; (about contacting me) DO NOT make the mistake of getting mad at me because you are somehow feeling entitled to my free help!  I’m a busy guy and I help as I can and feel good about.  You play nice and I play nice.  You piss me off then you can just forget it all and go out and hire and pay for a programmer (and I can care less – you have a nice life!)  Take a flying leap…}

PLEASE Don’t get me wrong here - I just LOVE helping equally nice people with subjects such as improving their GPT site… _{But if you turn into an asshole on me then don’t expect me to coward down to you – expect a big door leading to a huge room full of all types of FREE help (so to speak) to SLAM SHUT in your face!

WARNING! Place Your Tiny Benign Rank Code or Face Deletion on FreeCashOnlineTopSiteList.com

NOTICE FOR LISTED SITES ON www.FreeCashOnlineTopSiteList.com

WARNING! Place Your Tiny Benign Rank Code or Face Deletion on FreeCashOnlineTopSiteList.com:

"Hello,

First, let me mention that this email is a MASS EMAIL sent out to every current member of our top site list site (no, we're not picking on you specifically)

It's been noticed that a large number of listed sites have a big zero (0) stat for their "This Week" hits figure and the 'Average' figure is hovering down around zero (0) as well.

This is a symptom of the target listed site either having improperly placed or damaged ranking code or (more commonly) not having placed the ranking code at all.

Your site's individual custom (for your site only) ranking code can be recovered by logging in to your FCOTSL User Control Panel located here:  http://www.freecashonlinetopsitelist.com/index.php?a=user_cpl

Our site ranking scheme is based upon the AVERAGE number of unique WEEKLY HITS (views) the ranking code banner gets on the target site (a tiny 88 x 31 pixel stylish banner that changes with and shows your site rank number on it - it's kind of neat)

So, if you place the ranking code including the tiny banner in a highly trafficked spot (more views of the banner) on your site then your site has a higher probability of shooting up in rank on the list.

Though a voting option is also available by clicking on the banner while it's on your site please know that clicking / voting is NOT required to rank highly on the top site list.  All that is required is that the banner get's seen by as many of your site visitors as possible.

If you don't like the idea of the banner being visible on your site then it is ok (though not encouraged) to set the HEIGHT and WIDTH properties in the code to one (1) pixel and the ranking code will still record ranking views just the same but the banner itself will be reduced to a one (1) pixel dot (basically) on your site.

The top site list has become increasingly popular over time and I would like to thank those who actually are proudly displaying the tiny ranking banner on their site(s)

Please know that those of you who have not installed the required ranking code on your target site and who are currently registering a zero (0) "This Week" views figure are under peril of your listed site and list account being unceremoniously deleted (this email is your one and only notice)

If you need more time or help in retrieving or placing your code please feel free to hit reply to this message and request an extension and/or help.  Otherwise, the ZERO views sites will be deleted one-by-one over the next 72 hours.

Thank You,

The Admin"

For those GPT type sites and CPA networks not currently listed on the list please know that registration is easy and always totally FREE ;-)  Please feel free to list your site(s) today (only know that you MUST OWN any site that you list as a small snippet of ranking code being placed on the target site is a requirement.)

Example GPT Site Withdrawal Information & Policy Text (Free for GPT Admins to Use as Desired Verbatim, Partial, or Edited)

Here is an example of text I composed for use on my own get paid to (GPT) site giving information and somewhat describing and explaining the GPTs withdrawal process and restrictions.

I am releasing the text in the example below for any GPT admin to freely use in whole, partial, or modified form as he/she wishes on his/her GPT site.

Your particular situation concerning payment time frames, verification procedures, withdrawal payment qualifications, etc. are likely different than described below so please feel free to use this just as a general guideline or example for writing describing your own circumstances.

Here is the text I speak of that has been placed long ago appearing on the GPT site's withdrawal options page:

---

[Insert GPT Site Name Here]

 Withdrawal Payment General Information,

Requirements, Restrictions, & Brief Policy Statement

---

We typically process withdrawal payments daily within 24 hours of the withdrawal request though this is not a guaranteed time frame.  Withdrawals over a weekend  or during holiday periods may take longer.

No PayPal Fees!  We pay via PayPal in such a way that none of the hard earned money you withdraw here goes toward PayPal fees (if any fees are involved then we will we pay them for you during the transaction processing.)

If you need to convert points into cash or vice versa here then please feel free to surf on over to our Currency Converter page first.

In this member fraud ridden GPT site industry where we routinely send out large amounts and numbers of basically free money to anyone purporting to be anyone (site-unseen) on the internet then we reserve the right to ask for positive proof of your identity before completing any payments (especially new accounts that WE find suspicious for whatever reason)

Please take the time to make sure that the contact phone number and any /all other profile information we have on file for you is always up to date and valid.  We may call you (voice) before processing certain payments to verify your honesty in the information that you have provided us. We reserve the right to withhold any and all payments indefinitely until such time as we are convinced that you are who you say you are.

PayPal account sharing is forbidden here!  The PayPal account you specify while withdrawing must be your own PayPal account (with your name attached to it when queried)  We ONLY pay to PayPal verified PayPal accounts - no exceptions!  Do not share the same PayPal account with any other member of this site - when discovered then BOTH of your GPT site member accounts with us will likely get banned.

NOTE: Please feel fortunate that we pay you daily while we ourselves typically have to wait a month or more before we receive our payments.  We typically get paid on a monthly basis from most of our offer sources while a few other offer sources pay us weekly.

Occasionally (rarely) the situation is such that we must wait a number of days while we are waiting on a certain crucial sponsor (offer source) payment before we can process pending payments though again this is a rare occurrence - 95% of our payments go out within 24 hours. Your quiet patience during these rare payment delays is greatly appreciated.

Questions about payments may be directed to the GPT site  administrator at admin@yourowngpt.com, via the internal site trouble ticket system (preferred), via the inbox system (to 'admin'), or via our convenient contact us form.

Negative posts or complaints about payments and other account specific issues DO NOT BELONG in our shoutbox chat and will only result in a temporary or permanent revocation of your chat privileges.

---

NOTE: When I had initially released this text to serve as a general guideline for GPT admins in a very popular facebook based GPT admins group I'm a member of earlier in the day before posting this here there was one criticism from a well respected fellow network admin and friend that my text appeared too strict or overly untrusting to the target GPT site member audience.  Enough so (in his opinion) to have the effect of  'scaring the prospective GPT site member away' though in my own opinion that's not so much a concern to me as it is stating my intentions and expectations clearly and without doubt to my own GPT members.  Also, on my own GPT site where this text is posted then I've never observed or was made aware of any such negative reaction from anyone.

ShiftCode is in the GetPaidTo (GPT) Site Script Selling Business Again!

Great news!  It was just announced 15 Mins ago that ShiftCode is selling new GPT site script installations again ;-)

This post was hastily put together - I will fill in details as they flesh out.

To see the official announcement then see the post in the ShiftCode Official Facebook Group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/shiftcodecom/permalink/767686089944003/

IncentWise CPA Network is STILL an Excellent Choice for Your ShiftCode GPT ! Now with IT Equipment Upgrades Just Now Performed ! Increased Speed, Reliability, and Daily AUTOMATED Backups !

We now also are taking the added extra precautions of performing DAILY MANUAL & AUTOMATIC BACKUPS of all crucial data ! [See News Just In Below!] We've been in the incentive publishing industry for nearly a decade now so we definitely can relate well to the needs and desires of the GPT site admin. Google us or ask any of our present publishers! We're confident that you will discover that all our publishers love us - and we love to pamper our valued publishers with upper echelon campaign rates, early payments often, attention to detail, and outstanding customer service.

We consider this serious business and expect the best from all of our business relationships. IncentWise has been experiencing phenomenal growth consistently - please join us in the spirit of mutual success without limits ! NEWS JUST IN ! IncentWise CPA Network Get's a Definite IT Equipment & Location Upgrade ! Over the weekend (08/03/2014), our network platform provider 'Performa' upgraded our IT equipment (computer & network) over to their own 100% owned machines (servers, drives, switches, routers, etc.) which is now local to their corporate office and warehouse area allowing them physical access at a moment's notice with any sign of trouble to get their capable hands on it and get the fix going immediately (rather than the former situation that had them calling a long distance technical support line, explaining, getting escalated, and awaiting a stranger technician to care enough to 'own' and fix the problem - Argh!) According to the president of Performa/ShiftCode, AffTrack, CPAWay, and other notables) *"Every node ShiftCode/Performa is on currently consist of Dual 6 Core Xeons, 72gb ram and 1tb SSD's in an Raid 1 Array. Of course all are virtualized to protect each site. Each Hardware node also takes a daily backup to our backup deposit server where we store 7 days worth of backups for each virtual machine." To me that will mean that data loss and downtime should most likely be a thing of the past for the ShiftCode/Performa network platform (though we continue to perform daily data backups of our own here at IncentWise)! For those of our publishers NOT connecting via the internal ShiftCode GPT site / Performa network integration please note that since the equipment upgrade our own IncentWise postback IP has changed to 192.95.116.117 admin@incentwise.com * [08/03/2014 Thomas Dietzel of TheWay Holdings quoted from a post in the GPT Site Admins & Staff Connect fb group]

Extremely Useful Facebook Groups Assisting the ShiftCode GPT Site & Performa Network Admin !

In the past couple of years I have noticed and taken part in  a mass migration from the ordinary independent web site based discussion and support forum to facebook based groups of all types.  Facebook groups have sprung up in all the topic areas formerly dominated by online discussion forums.

Among the topic areas keeping pace with this Facebook group over forum preference trend have been the get paid to (GPT) site and affiliate network support and discussion activity particularly.  Nowadays the well connected GPT site and/or affiliate network admin need not stray far from Facebook for performing promotion, support, research, and even social camaraderie with peer admins in the business.

Below I've gathered and described a number of these groups I have found most useful as an admin in multiple categories.  I'd feel I should mention here for the sake of better transparency that I, myself, act in some form of official capacity (founder, admin, co-admin, etc) in most (though not all) of the groups I list below.

I'll start with to more 'public' oriented Facebook groups (good for promoting your site(s) and making announcements of special promotions such as contests, etc) and move lower down into the more exclusive strictly admins only groups that require you to either be already known in the business or to show credentials (provide proof) that you are indeed connected to a site in some official capacity:

• Public Facebook Groups Open to All (or most)
  
• Earn Free Cash Online Simply and Legitimately! an extremely popular long established open group sporting almost 700 group members of all types here (there a a ton of GPT site members, along with many GPT site admins, while still a few network admins as well here)  The group allows the promotion of pretty much any FREE online money making program or opportunity here though ALL promoted sites must be totally free to join and earn through (no investment or purchase of any kind!)
  
  The posting of referral links are just fine here.  Also, when introducing a new program or opportunity then it is requested that you include as complete information about the subject of the post - in your post (saying to inbox or email you for more information instead of providing details is forbidden here)

Facebook Group Privacy Open Group: Anyone (including non-members) can see the group, who's in it, and what members post. Closed Group: Anyone can see the group and who's in it. Only members see posts. Secret Group: Only members see the group, who's in it, and what members post.

...to be continued (probably being worked on in the background while you are reading now)

The New! Free Cash Online Top Site List

While I'm thinking of it I just wanted to mention that I have constructed a brand new site dedicated to promoting sites just like yours. It's called Free Cash Online Top Site List and it's located at http://www.FreeCashOnlineTopSiteList.com. I'd like to encourage you to join the list just to provide you that little extra oomph in your site promotion.

The site has already been heavily promoted thus far and it's already become quite popular relatively in the short amount of time since its inception (also, if you are a relatively active publisher of ours (www.IncentWise.com) and you would enjoy a free mention in the form of a small banner on the side panel (if you site isn't already mentioned) then please feel free to write me back and suggest it along with the URL of where I can find a 120 x 60 banner for your site):

Don't Ever Delete Referral Banners - Replace Them

Yes, I've learned over the years that it is a best practice to replace referral banners rather than deleting them (even if they contain outdated information!)

Think about it.  If you delete a referral banner then any forum posts or sites that your loyal members have already placed them at instantly are shown as a bad image link (you know, the banner outline with the red 'X' indicating a dead image link.)  Making the image presentation go bad on your member's referral posts is just a shame and waste of the opportunity to keep valuable good posts concerning your site looking in tip top shape.

In the ShiftCode admin panel the procedure of accomplishing this isn't immediately obvious.  In the Referral Links Banners section (Membership>Referral Links) when you choose "Edit" and upload a new banner then yes, it will upload the new banner and delete the old one in that position but doing this will also change the name of the new banner (thereby making links to the old banner go dead.)

The (Membership>Referral Links) section in the admin always replaces the names of all uploaded banners with a number incremented file name -- The File Manager doesn't !

A better way of accomplishing this is to go to the File Manager (on the right menu in the admin panel), select /images/banners, delete the unwanted banner, rename the new banner using the name of the old banner (exactly), and upload the new banner (thereby replacing the old banner with the new banner under the old banner's name.)  Also the new banner should be of the same type (extension: gif, jpg, etc.)

When doing this also note the old banner's size (dimensions) and use a banner of the same dimensions to replace it (so that wherever the banner had been placed by members in their referral posts, the formatting doesn't change.)

On a related note you may want to review the online ad industry standard banner sizes.  The most common banner size in the GPT site business is 468 x 60 (pixels) so I would recommend that you have at least one banner of these dimensions.  This page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_banner#Standard_sizes shows all the other standard banner image sizes.

Avoid Unintended Unnecessary Member Re-logins by Always Coding Templates Using Relative Links

In addition to being a GPT site admin, and a script coder, I'm also a site member at most all of the popular ShiftCode GPTs out there.  Occasionally I've run across a few GPTs where I've noticed an annoying problem based in the way the site admin or designer has coded links.

The symptom of this issue is where I've already logged into the site once for the session and then I click on a link on the site and it prompts me to re-login to the site.

ShiftCode sites usually have at least three ways of accessing the site.  One would be the standard (usually thought of) primary domain name (http://www.mygpt.com), the second would be the domain name without the www. (http://mygpt.com), and the third would be the ShiftCode subdomain (mygpt.shiftcode.com)  That's all fine and good but can cause problems if your links are not all standardized on your template and script coding throughout your entire site.

The re-login issue I speak of is based in the way browser cookies handle all these instances.  With cookies, www.mygpt.com  and mygpt.shiftcode.com are essentially entirely different domains thereby requiring a new cookie for each.  If a member has logged in at www.mygpt.com and then clicks on a link on your site that has been coded to go to a page at mygpt.shiftcode.com then the member will be prompted to re-login in order to see the target page.

This problem may be present on your site right now without you knowing it (and members are not likely to report this particular problem -usually  Though it does tend to reflect negatively on their overall site experience)

To check whether your site has this issue I would suggest taking the time to check each link on your site.  Simply log on to your site as a member and hover over each of the links on your site.  Your browser will show you each link's target somewhere depending upon what browser you are using.  In FireFox it will show where the link goes to in the lower left corner.  ALL of your links should be pointing to your own domain name.  If your see any links pointing to your version of mysite.shiftcode.com then those links are problem links and should be edited.

The best solution to this problem is to get in the habit of always using relative links (/members/promo.php) in code rather that what are called hard coded "fully qualified" links (http://www.mygpt.com/members/promo.php)

A good example in code would be:

<a href="/members/promo.php">Promo Codes</a>

Rather than hard coded links (bad) like:

<a href="http://www.mygpt.com/members/promo.php">Promo Codes</a>

or

<a href="http://mygpt.com/members/promo.php">Promo Codes</a>

or

<a href="mygpt.shiftcode.com/members/promo.php">Promo Codes</a>

The first (good) example will always use the same login cookie no matter how the member enters the site (as long as all your links are relative rather than fully qualified and/or hard coded.)  And the member will remain logged in for their entire visit to your site.   Simple!
