Tips to Make More Money

Some of our PEERs asked how they can make more money. So, we sat down and came up with a list of a handful of things that you can do!

1. Verify your preferences on the PEER user interface. To pay you for online time and work processed, the characteristics (country, zip code, Internet connection type) you indicate on the PEER preferences window must match the actual characteristics of your PC.

* For instance, if you select "Uzbekistan" as your country in the PEER preference window, but you live in the United States, your PC may not receive work. Thus, you earn less processing time payments.
* If you have a laptop, or your PC's location and Internet connection type changes frequently, please be sure to update your PEER preferences.
* Please follow these steps to verify your PEER preferences: Select "Options" from the menu on the PEER user interface and choose "Preferences".

2. Use the Referral Tools to get people to sign up with you as the referrer! Every time someone signs up with your username in the "Referrer" field and we activate them, you get a buck! Tell-A-Friend directly, or use the banner ads on the Referral Tools page.

* If you have a Web site, post Gomez banners.

3. Dial-up users, stay online! The Gomez PEER only earns you cash when you are connected to the Internet. Therefore, every time you decide to turn on your PC, get online!

* Many dial-up Internet service providers will automatically disconnect your PC from the Web when it it is inactive for a period of time. We have searched the Web and found some possible solutions to this problem. Check out the FAQ for the links to these sites!

4. Check your screen saver and energy saver settings. The Gomez PEER continues to run while your screen saver is on. However, if your energy saver is activated and shuts down your hard drives, the PEER will be unable to communicate with Gomez servers. To check your settings, please follow these steps:

* Click on "Start" button.
* Choose "Settings", then "Control Panel."
* Double-click the "Display" icon.
* The power settings are under the "Screen Saver" tab. Make sure the PC is not scheduled to shut down after a certain time.

5. Add more PCs to your PEER account. If you have any other idle PCs that you can use, register them and install the PEER.

6. Keep running the Gomez PEER and stay online! You can even run the Gomez PEER in the middle of the night. We process work 24x7, so the longer you are online, the more work you can process. Make sure you are wary of local telephone charges. Some carriers offer unlimited calls/minutes, while some do not. Make sure you check with the phone company to be aware of its policies.

7. Set your performance manager to "Max." The performance manager in the preferences window on the PEER user interface controls how much work your PC performs. If you want to earn more money, set it to "Max".
