Your referral link is the key to obtaining your free gift. The more referrals you gain, the closer you are to completing your prize requirements. What's more, if you gain more than the required amount of referrals, you can request a cash alternative.

Youtube

Youtube is a fantastic way to get people to sign up under your referral link. By creating an engaging video and inserting your referral link, you can gain users in no time. Creating a video and promoting your referral link is easy:

1. Create your video. Using Windows Movie Maker you can make short Youtube videos from stills you create in a software such as photoshop or fireworks. You can compiles these together, adding text, sounds, and animations to give your video a bit of jaz. Try creating a video on a topic that is hot at the moment, to get the maximum amount of views. Remember, the more views - the more likely it is someone will sign up under your link.

The best topic to create videos on is gaming. These generally attract viewers that would be interested in getting free items such as xBox live, consoles and iPods.

2. Uploading your video. Once your video has been created, it's time to jam as many keywords into your title and description. The more keywords you use, the more likely people would find your video. For example, if your video was about getting free items, your title might be something like "How to get Free iPods, xBox live and consoles". In your "tags", you would want to add tags such as "free ipod", "free xbox", "xbox live for free", etc.

Your referral link you should insert in the description of your video, as you can't put them directly in your videos. To direct people to this link, you should add an "annotation" in your video, telling people to click on your link in the description to get their free item.

Once this is done, you can continue to upload the video, and it will be live within a matter of minutes!

Forums

If you're a member of forums, we have great tool that you can use in the signatures of the forums you participate in. When you login to your account, if you click on "profile", you will find your signature image at the top of the page. The idea of it, is to display an image that will show what prize you are working towards, how many referrals you currently have, and how many you need.

There is a small piece of source code underneath the image - if you copy this and paste it into your forum signatures, it will show the image in your signature, under your posts. This will allow everyone else on the forum to see the image, and enable you to gain some referrals through it. If you want the image to be clickable, then you should wrap a link tag around the image, with your referral link as the link tag. With this, when people click on the image, they will be taken to the FreeFlamingo site via your referral link.
