Hello!
When I was a newbie on the forum, I have long delved into how to participate correctly in bounty companies, and most importantly, how to participate effectively!
I got the knowledge getting hard knocks and losing own (as it seemed to me) tokens for participating in the bounty. Understanding of the right campaign choice and what you need to do so that you are not excluded from it came not immediately. Here I will share my view on how to approach the selection of companies, and most importantly how to track new bounties and reporting days for the companies in which you are participating.
I hope this article will be very useful not only for newcomers of the forum, but also for regular users.
1. How I track the campaign's bountyMany people do not know how to track the emergence of new bounty companies. Everything is very simple! You need to go to the bounty
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0 and click on "Notify".
After that, you will be immediately notified about the creation of new bounty topics on your mail, indicated when registering on the forum.
If you do not want to search through the mail, you can use the site
http://bountylord.com/, every day there are new bounties of the campaign. But all the same you have to go to the forum and get acquainted with the conditions. And if you want to reserve participation in the translation bounty, then you will have to use to the standard option to be the first.
2. Choosing Bounty companiesChoosing of bounty companies is a very responsibly action (since now there is so much scam that the head goes around), this is very important! I have a lot of tokens that no one needs and that are a dead weight in my wallet and most of them I got at the initial stage of my bounty training. If you only knew how much time I spent to get them!
How do I choose a bounty campaign:- The theme of the bounty campaign must be very well-formed and contain graphic images. Poor design of the topic = bad interest in the project.
- We need to carefully study the ANN branch of the project. If the project conducts an ICO to open a store for selling lavatories or other delirium, we immediately pass by.
- If the project is launched without any idea or technical description (white paper), but is built only on masternods and mining, we pass by.
- You need to go to the campaign's website and see how it is designed, if the site is cheap and looks terrible, we pass by.
- I advise you to wait 1-2 days after the publication of the bounty, and then go to Twitter and Facebook of the project and see how many users subscribed to them. If the number of participants is less than 1000 people, I would not contact such a campaign. You can certainly mark up subscribers, then just go to the google table with the participants "spreadsheet" and see how many members went into Twitter and Facebook.
By the way, if the project is very worthy, then in the "spreadsheet" subscription campaign you will see a lot of Legendary and Hero users. They already know what's what.
- If the project has collected its Soft Cap (minimum amount for launching the project) on pre-sale, or more, then it is attention worthy.
- If the project has a working alpha version of the software that you can test, it adds bold +
- If the project does not have information about the team - we pass by. A strong and well-known team is 100% success of the project.
- Be sure to read the white paper of the project (White Paper) and if there is one water and the essence of the project is not clear, we pass by.
- Do not participate in companies with bad bounty Manager (see item number 4 of this post).
3. How do I look after bounty campaignsI participate in a lot of bounty companies and always have an Excel table, which indicated the name, the day of reports, the link to the bounty branch, etc. I marked cells with different colors.
It was excruciatingly long and tedious to hand over the reports, every day I opened the table and checked line by line, when and what report I need to make and for which campaign.
Now I do not have a table (there is a table for accounting payments, about this below), but I use
google calendar https://calendar.google.com/calendar and you just can’t imagine how it simplified my life! Every day I open it and I immediately see how many reports I need to do. In the remarks to the notes, I always specify a branch with a bounty, special conditions (how many retweets per week need to be done, etc.) and how should I submit a report (in a bounty branch or a google form in a branch).
I used to forget to do 3 or 4 of my own tweets per week (especially if you can only have 1 tweet per day), and now I add a reminder about the need to make a tweet or a post, for example on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and I'm not worried. Especially if you put a tick "repeat every week", then it will be duplicated for all the following weeks. You can also delete the campaign record from the entire calendar.
I advise you to write links on your own tweets and posts in the same google calendar, in the comment to the record about the report.
And the most wonderful thing is that you can make reports from any computer with Internet access, you just need to go to your google profile and it is very convenient!I have an Excel table, but only to account information on bounty projects that have not yet been paid, which have been paid and which have gone to SCAM. Green color of the cells - paid, red - scam, yellow - I expect payment. Once a week I open this table and look who must pay me))) The day when I check the payment, or check the ads of the campaign's bounty manager for payments, I also add to a Google calendar.
4. Where do I look reviews bounty managersAbout bounty work with different managers, can be read here
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2845483.0 (but the branch in the Russian language, use translator)
Very important tips:-
Read the first and last page of the bounty campaign every week. Managers often like to change the conditions of the bounty (for example, reports were not needed, and then they were introduced) and you can stay without your earnings.
-
Before you join the bounty count your strength and time. This is particularly true for the subscription campaign, where sometimes it takes from 20-30 constructive posts a week and you can not miss any, otherwise they can be excluded. And also Facebook and Twitter companies, where, in addition to reposts, you need to make 5-7 of your posts a week.
-
Different projects have different reporting days. If this information is not available, then it is better to ask in the branch. Or look in the "spreadsheet", there are often shown weeks with dates. Otherwise, you can publish the report later or earlier than the due time and your shares will not be counted.
-
After the completion of the bounty campaign, do not sit and wait for the token crediting, but immediately check the summary tables. The manager can skip your report and count the shares and you can lose most of the tokens. For example, I participated in one campaign and I did not accrue shares for an article, I had to correspond exactly 2 weeks and prove that I have the right to get remuneration. And in the end, they accrued bonus to my shares, for viewing the article. If I did not fill them with messages and did not prove my case, I would have stayed with nothing.
I hope you liked my recommendations and advice on choosing and managing bounty companies. Waiting for criticism, your ways of choosing a bounty and your advice that you can add here.

You know what's weird? Although I clicked on notify, as long as I am not at the computer, I don't get any notifications.
