The process of entering online competitions is of course easy enough but there are some useful tips that can help you make the most of the time you spend online. It is a good idea to set up a separate email account that you can use when entering competitions so that your usual email account doesn't get clogged up with more emails that you have time to sift through. It can also be helpful to use form filling software to speed up the process of entering competitions. I will go into more detail about form filling software in a future post on the subject of speeding up the process of entering competitions.

Another tip is to keep track of the competitions you enter so you don't waste time trying to enter the same ones again. Some competitions may allow multiple entries but check the terms and conditions before trying to enter the same competition twice. There are websites such as Money Saving Expert's forum http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.php?f=72 which allow you to keep track of what you've entered. It isn't necessary to pay for such a service. The only possible downside of using the Money Saving Expert forum is that it is popular and there may be lots of people entering the competitions posted on there, though this is probably the case with most online competitions. I will try and look into the subject of finding lesser known competitions in future posts.
