how long

I was wondering if someone could tell me how long it usually takes to increase your level? I am a newbie and can only log 5 bills a day but I run my own business so I get a lot of bills through my hands daily. I write the numbers down and mark most of them but I am afraid that by not logging them on the site that someone else will see the URL and log them instead. I want to log them so I get the hits but I guess that as long as they are logged thats OK too.
P.S. I cant wait till I get a hit cause this site is so much fun and thanks for all the help with all my questions.

At the early levels, if you are logging the max amount of bills every day you should see your level increase every week (Saturdays I believe)

When I joined I asked the same question. My level went up weekly. Now I don't have enough bills to enter daily to reach my limit. It doesn't take long.

your level with change based on how much you put into this site. enter your limit daily and you will get promotions quickly. pukpukg is your hit dad and he is one on the most active members on the site for bill entries. try and keep up with him as you go through the ranks. happy tracking from the hit capital of canada …sasktoon sk.

As has een pointed out by a few members your level should go up almost weekly. Then pretty soon you will have a limit that will be tough to fill. ( at least in a reasonable amount of time. )
BC noted that pukpukg is your hit daddy. with having talked to pukpukg a few times, he goes a couple days once in a while without adding bills cause it is too time consuming. ( anyone with a young family would probably agree )
As for your worry about getting a hit on a bill that you have saved the serial number & marked & spend.
I wouldn't worry. Not many hits are immediately after you spend them. just make sure you rotate your serial numbers to enter the oldest bills 1st..

This is entirely my fault – normally user levels are updated automatically every Saturday morning but it seems that the automated job to do that is broken (along with the weekly email report). I have run the update manually and will try to remember to so again until such time as I fix the update and report.
