Let's take a closer look at the "ACTIVITY GOAL" ... The Activity GOAL is a guide line for what Level and Rank you would like to reach... If you want to aim for a certain Level, use the chart below.

First select the level, then select your membership type. This is the number of page views you will need to surf daily to remain on that level.

NOTE: These numbers which continually change depending on the current surfing activity are just averages and estimates - You might be able to achieve your goal with less or perhaps much more surfing.

Level... Free... Gold... Platinum
1...........4712.....4284....3927
2...........3794.....3449....3162
3...........2778.....2526....2315
4...........2079.....1890....1733
5...........1703.....1548....1419
6...........1125.....1023......938
7.............699.......635......582
8.............407.......370......339
9.............192.......175......160
10.............69.........63........57
11.............17.........15........14
12...............2..........2..........2
13...............1..........1..........1
14...............0..........0..........0
20...............4..........3..........3

I have my Activity Goal set at Level 4 which I had reached awhile back but have dropped off because of not surfing on a regular daily basis...Of Course, you can set your Activity Goal at whatever Level you want to go for...from Level 10 (fairly easy) thru Level 1 (the hardest to reach and maintain!)

Now you might be wondering "How will I know when I have reached my Level?"

And in the bottom bar on the left, you will see the member's name for the page you are viewing and their level...In the middle is the Quick Links Drop-Down Menu and you will also see your current level and rank along with the SuperSurf Link underneath...The right shows who and how many pages you must surf to pass that member...

NOTE: these Stats* do tend to fluctuate during your surfing session!

You can also find that information in the Member's Area under User's Statistics (in the 4th section of the box)...Look for Activity Level... 4 (mine) click [Details (http://www.startxchange.com/members/position.php)] (shows mine again for an example)

That is Link for viewing your position
http://www.startxchange.com/members/position.php (http://www.startxchange.com/members/position.php)
This is the Link for viewing your points (14 day period - covered in Part 2)
http://www.startxchange.com/members/position.php?action=points (http://www.startxchange.com/members/position.php?action=points)
And this Link is for the Top 20 Surfers
http://www.startxchange.com/members/position.php?action=top20 (http://www.startxchange.com/members/position.php?action=top20)


Let's move on to "SURFING" ... Ok, everybody knows how to match pictures, words, numbers and shapes but what if you are going along and this happens to you...Instead of getting the Match the Shape Images an -x- comes up, you might wonder: "Do I guess what the right shape is?" Nope, all you gotta do is right click on the -x- ... a menu drops down, go to "Show Picture" and voila there's the shapes!

Another thing that might happen is you click the "Matching Shape" up comes "Wrong Shape Clicked" you mumble to yourself or even say something outloud to the monitor but continue on wondering why did that happen to me?

Sometimes we can inadvertently move our cursor and consequently click the wrong shape or another reason you get that wonderful message about the wrong shape being clicked is because you might have clicked the shape more than once...Be sure to move your cursor away and wait before clicking again...
