Minor Suggestion
« on: August 18, 2007, 09:46:25 pm »
Hey all,
I recently started on the site and I think it's great!  One of my favorite aspects is the "No Credit Card Required" section, which is great because I don't like giving out my personal info for Free offers due to the vast amount of scams on the web.

Anyway, after browsing for a while I've noticed that the experience could really be improved via a "Bookmarking" feature.  I often want to 'check out' offers some time before committing to them - for example, I recently found a children's book offer that I'm considering doing to get gifts for a friend of mine, but I want to complete it later after I've gotten advice from some of our mutual friends about what she'd like.

Ideally, such a feature would allow you to tag any offer while browsing.  Tagging the offer would do two things:  It would prevent the site from trying to autocredit the offer(since theoretically the only reason you'd bookmark an offer is because you haven't gone through with it yet), and it would allow you to easily view the offer from your account page instead of having to search for it later.  The first part, about the auto crediting, may not be feasible to prevent problems with not crediting, (erring on the side of trying to credit an offer that hasn't been completed and all that) but being able to view offers you were interested in later on would be mighty useful.

So, it's a relatively minor suggestion, but I believe it'd be a big help.  Hopefully it made sense.  Thanks for reading!  ;D

I reworked the categories and took a shot at what you described.  I also fixed a couple minor bugs in the offers page.  Let me know what you guys think!

 :notworthy: LOVE the new bookmark feature, allows me to not only mark ones i want to come back to but it also allows me to mark the ones i have already completed so as to not accidentally do them again
THANKS

I'm thinking about adding a small red X next to it that would let you "hide" the offer.  There'd be a separate list elsewhere (account page?) with a list of hidden offers and an opportunity to unhide them. 

Seems a little overly complicated...

The offers you bookmark should already go away, then in the bookmarked page you can then choose to unmark them and they will appear back on the page where it is supposed to be. No reason for the x, alteast for the reason your giving.

I disagree.  :o

I actually appreciate keeping bookmarked items in the other categories, especially since it indicates which ones are bookmarked.  For example, if I for some very odd reason forget about or cannot access my bookmarked offers, I can still find them in their respective categories - rather than being a replacement category, it's just an extra thing to help you organize your offers.

As far as the X goes, I would also support this.  Mainly because there are some offers that I have completed before finding FushionCash, so I know I'm not eligible.  So not only would that be an easy way to get rid of clutter, I also would not have to be reminded of what I'm missing.  ;)  Seeing the $20 Netflix offer makes me sad.  :P

By the way.. wow, that's some fast coding!  Thanks for the super quick implementation!

I also have some suggestions

1. I think it would be a good idea if the referrals banners had the date the act was created. This help proves that you can easily 20,30,+ in a very short amount of time. (or some other way you can think of for us to promote this point) Because this is one of the big pros of fusion cash compared to other sites that offer similar services

2. I  would like the offers I have already completed to be removed from my offer screen. It gets confusing trying to remember which surveys I have already done. and its annoying going to cash out page.

Kitsuta:  I'm with you.  The current setup has offers appearing in multiple "criteria" views because an offer can match more than one criteria (criteria being something like "free trial" or "featured").  "Bookmarked" is just another criteria, so to treat those offers any differently would be counter-intuitive for the user. 

JUILAGILL :   I've got great news for you.  Two of your suggestions have been features since day one:  Any offer you have completed (and been credited for) is automatically hidden from the offers view, and all you have to do is click "All" to view offers by payout (payout is the default sorting order).  As for the banner change... that's a lot of work and I'll have to think about it ;)

Hahahahahahaha. *is dumb* Which is why your the admin ;)

or like a stats page instead of the banner idea. It could be similar to the stats page for the forum.

I'd love to check this out - can you give me any specific examples?  It would be a great help.

I think the letters on the bookmark should be different colors..like white or yellow or red so they are easily noticed
