So what are the differences between SweepsAdvantage and SweepstakesPlus? To start with the similarities, both sites post hundreds of new sweepstakes every week. Both sites are arranged in a similar manner and have site tools to help you enter and organize your sweepstakes. Both sites also have a lively Forum where you can talk to other sweepers or contact a moderator if you need assistance.
SweepsAdvantage is the very basic version of the website. It is a free site that is supported by advertising. There are some flashing advertisements, advertisements that you must watch before the sweepstakes will load, and sponsors that make you click through their advertisements before the entry form appears. Annoying? Sort of, but this is the trade off for the site being free. The advertisers make the site possible. If you don't like the advertisements, the SweepstakesPlus version of the site does not have them.
Both sites allow you to create MySweeps lists where you can save lists of your favorite sweepstakes. The SweepsAdvantage site only allows you to save listings within the category where they appear. The SweepstakesPlus version of the site gives you the freedom to customize your own lists. For example, you could create a list called “House Party” and save any sweep under that listing whether the sweep is a Daily, Weekly or Instant Win. With SweepsAdvantage, it will only file under its category. Also, Facebook sweepstakes are a new addition and SweepsAdvantage does not have a MySweeps save option for them. Not a problem with SweepstakesPlus.
So in summary, buys you no advertising, advanced site tools, and access to some special “Plus Only” sweepstakes. The free SweepsAdvantage site is always an option, but SweepstakesPlus is the choice for serious sweepstakes fans.
