I am currently running a little experiment. I have basically the same
coupon running at several of the coupon sites. With limited data so far, I
think the most important thing is location. Where on the coupon site you
are going to end up, based on the way they have the site set up.

My coupon on Kooponz (http://www.kooponz.com/) is doing the best. But then
it is on the second page that everyone will see. If you look at the
national coupons, you see mine.

Coupon Direct (http://www.couponsdirect.com/) is not doing as well.
Probably because you have to click about 5 times to get to it. If you go
to Global, then All and then All again, you come to a link to my coupon.
You can also get to it thru a few different states where it is cross
listed, but you really have to be looking. (They are accepting free
coupons, so feel free to try this service. There are rates posted. So say
that I sent you to be sure that it is free.)

AAA FREEBIES & DISCOUNTS (http://members.tripod.com/~vdepot/index.html) is
not doing to well, but I don't think they get don't get many hits. They
only cover Southern California.

Coupon1 (http://www.coupon1.com) only has me under books, so no wonder I
get no hits. The categories are not too clear, so if you don't fit them
request a new one. (They have a free trial, so try it.)

Quick Coupons (http://www.qpons.com/) and e-coupons (?) did not even get
the coupon up yet. Quick is by far the most technically advanced. The
search thru the site is indeed quick as is the server.

I'll keep you informed as a get a few weeks of input.
