RoudyCash changes thier ToS

7) All payments are made via AlertPay and no other payment method is being used at this time. You must manually request for payment to be processed. You must accumulate at least $2, $5 or $10 before payment will be issued. Premium Members will be paid instantly and Standard Members will be paid in 5 business days. You can receive only one payment in 24 hours!
NEW: You can be paid instantly after 7 days of your purchase of Premium Membership. (AlertPay refuse all fraudulent funds in one week, so thats why. Thank you for understanding!)


I found the message quite wierd considering that an Instant CashOut Site like NeoBux, which is not only bigger, can still provide Instant Payments to Free Members. Is this a sign of bad things to come for RoudyCash? While it is still great that standard members will be paid, it is a sign which has occurred in the past with scam Instant CashOut PTCs. Lets hope this get paid to click ads site doesn't end up the same way.

ClickSia, paid a buck on Christmas

Sometimes it just amazes me that PTC Admins are working through the holidays. On Christmas day I got $1.03 in my Paypal Account. I was really happy because I thought that I might have to wait until after the holidays. ClickSia is an Aurora Script Get Paid to Click Ads site, so earnings take longer there. It is a PTC which I think will be around forever because it is run really well

Why not join ClickSia and be paid to promote the site?

Wordlinx, the most trusted PTC

WordLinx - Get Paid To Click

Join Wordlinx Get Paid to Click Ads today

Overall: 10/10
It goes without saying, that if you are earning cash through get paid to click ads sites then the most important PTC site you should be in is, Wordlinx.

Wordlinx is the oldest PTC Site on the internet, 5 years going on 6 now. The reason it has survived for so long is because they only show advertising they are getting revenue for. This does mean there isn't alot of ads for the standard member, but it's far better having a few ads than having many and the site disappears.

Excellent Referral Bonuses
One of the features of the site is that they have really good Referral Bonuses, so it's important to get as many people to sign up under you.

Heres' a snippet from thier site.
# Earn $0.05 for every active referral (each referral must click several adverts)
# Earn $0.50 for every referral that upgrades to paid membership (on 3 tiers!)
# Earn 5% for every referral click and 5% for every referral visitor purchase

The table below shows how much you can make just by referring new members who upgrade...

You refer 5 people who upgrade.
5 x $0.50. You earn $2.50.

Those referrals refer 5 people who upgrade.
5 x 5 x $0.50. You earn $12.50.

Their referrals refer 5 more people who upgrade.
5 x 5 x 5 x $0.50. You earn $62.50

Total earned from 5 referrals = $77.50 USD


Conclusion
I have been a member of this site for a long time now, unfortunately I got caught up in the hype of the Bux sites that had a few ads which turned out to be scams. If I had been promoting Wordlinx more, I would definitely had made more money and wasted less time. The site only has a few ads per day, and sends out e-mails every now and then so it shouldn't be too much of a problem taking a short break there.

Don't make the same mistakes as I did and miss out on earning cash at an honest get paid to click ads site. Wordlinx is one of the few PTC sites that weren't hit by the Paypal Lockdown of PTC Site, showing that, it's the most reliable PTC site on the Internet.

Paid2Site, Get Paid to Click Ads, Aurora Style

Sign up to this promising new Aurora Script site


Paid2Site News
10 Dec 2008 - Won 100 PTC Credits
12 Dec 2008 - Site has a Forum
19 Dec 2008 - Won 100 PTC Credits
22 Dec 2008 - Paid2Site Admins' Blog


There are universal truths when it comes to Paid to Click Ads Sites, that is, the sites which use the Aurora Based Script tend to outlast all other PTCs using any other script. The common denominator for Aurora Based Scripts is that they are paying thier members a fraction of what they are getting in Advertising Revenue.

That doesn't mean that Aurora Based PTC's are any more reliable, but it is interesting to note that the Aurora Based PTC's that have failed were all giving standard members $0.01 per click and $0.005 for thier referrals. In other words, that is the default values for other Get Paid to Click Ad Scripts. It seems that earning a cent is the limit for PTC Sites.

With that in mind, I present to you a brand new GPTC Site aptly named Paid2Site. Currently the site is looking for Banner Makers, so anyone with that type of talent should consider it an opportunity to make some extra money. As you can tell by my obvious lack of a banner for my blog, that is a skill which God sadly did not gift me. hehehehehehe.

The earning rates are quite reasonable for this site, up to a cent for free members, and 30% Referral Commission. With Aurora Sites, you are purchasing Link Ad Credits, what this basically means, is that you can choose how long you want your ad to be displayed. Obviously the longer the ad, the more Link Ad Credits it's going to cost you for 1 Ad Link. Members also benefit from this, Ads we view longer, will be paid better.

Aurora Based PTC Scripts are simply a Advertisers "wet dream" because it allows you to access many parts of a PTC which are often quite expensive at other script based PTCs. Banners on the site, Text Ad Links Impressions on the Site are all at your disposal to be bought. Usually, and Paid2Site is included, this type of advertising is dirt cheap. Admittedly the clickthrough rate on Banner and Text Ad Link Impressions is low, but the turnover on those clicks is very high.

The cashout for Paid2Site is very reasonable, at $5.00 available to AlertPay and PayPal Account holders.

Before I wrote this PTC Review, well mini review, I had decided to test the site out for a few weeks. What I've seen I've liked.

We have a winner !!!!!
I am also pleased to announce that I have won PTC Ad Links at Paid2Site, twice to be exact, at a 100 Ad Links per win, I have a nice shiny 200 PTC Ad Link credits. I might have to link this mini PTC Review as a way of thanks. They have contest at the site, most Aurora Script PTC Sites do, usually and in this case, all you have to do is, click ads. There are other contest as well, but clicking ads seems to a nice way to be in the "draw"

Conclusion
While my experience with Paid2Site is still very new, my overall experience with Get Paid to Click Ads isn't. The key to earning on them, is to get in early, and to get your referral links out as soon as you can. So while this site is brand spanking new, jump on board and "go hard" promoting it. Hmmmmm..... maybe I shouldn't really say that because then you'll be filching potential referrals I could have a crack at getting, hehehehehehe.

For now, enjoy this new site, and if I see you over there, gimmie a yell, happy clicking folks, and we wish you a clicky christmas :P

DollarsFromSense Best Priced Advertising for a PTC




DollarsFromSense News
24 Dec 2008 - Purchased 3 x History 101 Advertising Packs


Advertising
Of all the PTC sites I am a member of, DollarsFromSense has the most affordable advertising specials. Take a look at thier most recent monster of a purchase.

Winter Beauty! Cost $1.99
# 9 Referrals ( $5.85 Value )
# 70 Email Credits ( $0.21 Value )
# 175 Tickets
# 5000 PTR Credits ( $10 Value )
# 5000 X-Credits ( $5 Value )
# 7000 Link Credits ( $14 Value )
# 200000 F. Banner Credits ( $20 Value )
# 500000 Banner Credits ( $50 Value )


PTR Credits
PTR or Paid To Read Credits are as follows, you will need to type in a brief description of the ad which will follow. Members will read this before they get a link to the site. SO basically it's a place for a sales pitch :)

X-Credits
eXchange Credits are basically like Link Exchange Credits, that's where you will be able to add a link to the Link Exchange. You'll earn credits for viewing those links.

Link Credits
These are the normal Paid Link Ads, each credit is worth a 10 second ad view, you can increase the timer of viewing the ad but this will cost you more credits.

Banner Credits
Both the Featured Banner Credits and the Banner Credits work as impressions, so each time your banner appears on the page it counts as an impression. You can spend your credits here

I have bought a few of thier Advertising Packages in the past, mostly the History 101 Package, which is actually better than the Winter Beauty. I'm thinking I need to get some more advertising soon so DollarsFromSense is definitely a site I will be considering.

I also use Traffic Exchangers as well, but I've noticed if I had to buy advertising from those sites then it's far more expensive than DollarsFromSense.

Earnings
Of course, having cheap advertising means that earnings will be very low, which is the case. I consider DollarsFromSense a Traffic PTC, as I do with most of the Aurora Sites that are offering a fraction of a cent.

If there was something known as a PTC Niche Traffic site then DollarsFromSense will definitely qualify.

If you have a couple of spare bucks and are looking for some cheap advertising then DollarsFromSense has the deal for you.

MacoBux's AlertPay Hacked

According to an e-mail MacoBux's AP account was hacked into.

E-mail sent 20 Dec 2008
Hello members due to our AP account was under attack(was hacked and stoled over 100$ from our ap balance) we offer you x-mas lowering prices.(was planned anyway)

Visit our site now and get everything for lower prices.

It would be great from you to purchase something in x-mas offer and help us with your purchases.

We apologise to members what have had requested for payments at this time.

Thank you for becoming member on MB. P.S.: never stop clicking with us.

Further Comments
This really doesn't bode well for the site, if they can get thier AP [AlertPay] Account compromised how safe is the site to purchase from? Have they made any measures to ensure that it doesn't occur in the future? Anyway, it might be a red flag or a red herring, just keep a close eye on the site.

TaketheGlobe is installing V2 of thier site

Well it's all happening at the best PTC site currently on the internet. The pages will be down for 24 - 48 hours while the next generation version of the site is implemented.

Features of TaketheGlobe V2
Here are just some of the features I recall, that are being implemented with the upcoming version.

PTSU
Paid to Sign Up will be added in the new version

GPT Offers
Get Paid to do Offers will be added as well.

GPT Surveys
Get Paid to do Surveys, another opportunity for members to make money.\

Automated Payments
All this really means is that when the Admin is away from his computer, payments will continue to be processed. I'm not sure what criteria the payments will be made under, but at a guess it is likely that the 30/60 day cashout rule would be in effect.

SO if you've surfed to TaketheGlobe and found that the site is down, don't stress too much because this has been announced a week before TaketheGlobe went down

WARNING Paypal, AlertPay E-mails

I thought I would post a reminder that there are e-mails going around which are trying to get into your Paypal, Alertpay, MoneyBookers, e-Gold and Liberty Reserves accounts.

Things to Remember
Heres just a short list of reminders for you to do, especially with Payment Processor sites as the ones previously mentioned.

ALWAYS have a unique Password
In reality, all passwords should be unique, this seems more true with PTC sites that turn out to be scams, since most of the spam and the hacking comes from the crooks that run those crappy scam ptc sites. So make sure that your Payment Processor Passwords are different from each other. Don't get into the habit of having a password like fishsticks, then using a password fishsticks1 at another site. If you must, write the passwords down and store it in a safe place.

Sites will NEVER ask for your password
No site, where you are using a password to enter, will ever need to ask you for your password because they already have it. So if you get an e-mail asking for you to confirm your password, then ignore it.

E-mails
If you suspect that you're getting a bogus e-mail, then view the E-mail Headers

As you can see from this e-mail, the sender and dickhead is from and1israel, there's other ones like this so be very careful with your information. If you get an e-mail from Paypal regarding your account the link will start with either...

http://www.paypal.com
https://www.paypal.com

The same is with any other site that you have passwords for, a correct link in your browser is always the link of the main site.

Scan your computer
It does pay to scan your computer for virii and other nasties, do a search on google for a free virus scan and a free anti-spyware program.

Always be on guard when it comes to e-mails, or sites asking for your account details.

NeoBux, Instant CashOut Paypal Proof

I've been testing some stuff at NeoBux, mostly the rented referrals since it is quite hard to get referrals for the site. It hasn't been too bad but I can see that I'll need to put in alot more money to really benefit from my Referrals. The rented Referrals aren't too bad, you will get a slight profit. Anyway, I decided to request an instant cashout since it is one of the few PTC sites that are using Paypal. I'm really pleased that everything has turned out well.

NeoBux Review, Instant Cash, Instant Fame


Start earning with NeoBux, Instant CashOuts

Script: Original
Standard Clicks: $0.01
Standard Referral Commission: $0.0050
Upgraded Clicks: $0.010
Upgraded Referral Commission: $0.010

Payment Processors: AlertPay, Paypal
Payouts: Instant
Standard CashOut Minimum: $1.50

Overall Impression - 10/10
I recall when I first joined Neobux, I had be hanging out at the Paid to Post Site, myLoT, I met a friend there whom had recommended this site which was in Pre-Launch. Since she had joined as a Referral at one of my other Paid to Click Sites, I decided to give this new site a go. So I joined up, wondering if the site was truly going to pay out instantly once you reached CashOut.

I think it was around a month before the site had finally opened, heck I had forgotten about it until my friend messaged me at myLoT saying that the site was now opened.

So for a few weeks, and with the aid of a couple of Referrals, I clicked on the Ads which appeared, not really feeling confident because there were no Instant get paid to click sites around, so I was skeptical.

I reached CashOut in just under a couple of weeks, the first cashout is $1.50, and so I requested it. Everything seemed to go through, at least at Neobux's end, rather than checking my AlertPay Account I decided to log into my e-mail account. Since I knew I would be notified.

Was I instore for a shock, the money was THERE, HOLY COW, when the site said Instant CashOuts, it meant it. I became a believer that you could get paid instantly, brilliant stuff I thought.

A few weeks back I decided to convert some of my balance to what the site has, Referral Balance, where you can rent Referrals. I'm just seeing how that aspect of the site goes. For $3 I have rented 10 Referrals for 30 days, it isn't too bad, I just need each clicker to average 2 clicks a day to break even.

I've found it a good site to be at because it doesn't take much time to do thier ads, also the Instant Cash Out has to be the sites' best feature. You should be able to reach your first cash out within a month which is great, even if it is low.

The site is sustainable which is a good thing for us as members. SO if you want to be instantly paid out then look no further than NeoBux.

This is a NeoBux Review, so far so good

Click Everday
If you have Referrals then you must click at least 4 Ads a day to recieve commissions from your Referrals. This is a good idea since it means that there will be more active members on the site

Ads resets every 24 hours
When you log into your account, in the view advertisements page you will notice 2 times, the first is the server time, the second is your local time. You can click ads again after the second time.

DailyCent Quickfire Review



An Instant Paying PTC Site, Join DailyCent today

DailyCent is supposed to be an Instant Paying PTC but my request on the 20th Dec 2008 is still pending. I am advising not to purchase from the site

DailyCent Review
So today we have an Instant Paying get paid to click ads site, to me these sites are really great to test out because they have low cashouts and problems tend to arise very early.

I am a little hesistant about this site considering it's parent site 1stBux has reappeared and I've lost my Referrals for that site, although I don't think I had that many.

Back to DailyCent though, my impressions, overall, is positive for this site, it's paying people, which helps of course and there are enough ads per day to make it worthwhile for being a member of.

The $2 instant cashout minimum is great and you're also earning a decent cent for all the ads you view on the site. This is one of the sites I click on daily because reaching cashout is a priority for me, so I can really test thier instant payouts.

They have a forum for the site which always helps the "image" of a ptc site, although there is some teething problems, let's just hope they are temporary. DailyCent looks promising and a site for us to watch it's progress in the near future.

DailyCent - More Comments
I'll be using this section for relevant news regarding DailyCent.

14 Dec 2008
Today the site went down and couldn't load, this site is owned by the 1stBux Admin. 1stBux has been down for 2 months. There are posts on thier board regarding the lack of Instant Payouts, so caution is advised about purchasing from the site.

PPClix, problem loading page

Uh Oh, there seems to be a problem connecting to PPClix, the site is down to a crawl, which might mean that it is undergoing a DDoS attack. The irritating part is that there is an ad at Neobux for standard members, and you need to connect to PPClix for the timer to start. Since it's one of the 4 ads needed to be clicked for a Standard Member, if the site doesn't connect, it looks like we won't be able to get our Referral Earnings.

ChillBux, another Mike Pratt Site

Mike Pratt runs all the GPTNetworks sites that all have a problem that there are too many ads which he is getting no advertising revenue for.

GPTNetworks sites
ActiveClickers.com
Aurorabux.com
BlisterBlog.com
ChillBux.com
Clickforshares.com
Dingobux.com
Earn3.com
Exitcashflow.net
Extra10.com
KazarianGPT.com
Kooplinks.com
Makolinks.com
MNMBux.com
Mysteryclickers.com
Mysteryptc.com
Nippyclicks.com
Ptcbux.com
Splurgebux.com
Synergygpt.com

This latest PTC Site named Chillbux follows the same formula as his other PTC Sites, in this case there are 6 Ad Links for his other sites, 2 Ad links for upgrading and buying referrals. He will be losing a minimum of $0.08 for every standard member that is clicking. I've decided not to join any more of his sites because they are ponzi sites, where the income comes mainly through upgrades and referrals.

I wouldn't be surprised if ChillBux runs into the same problems as thier last Instant PayOut Site, DingoBux. Also, it wouldn't surprise me to see a new PTC Site from GPTNetworks.

Insta-Bux - Bandwidth Exceeded

Well this doesn't look too good for a Paid to Click Site to have exceeded thier bandwidth. I hope the site increases this because I have only just joined the site :P

Bryan, TaketheGlobe's admin arrives home safely

Bryan and his family arrived home safely after thier ordeal when his truck rolled. According to the Forum, he spent the day celebrating his birthday. Payments are continuing on the site so I'm hoping to get mine in a few days.

Other news from the site

There has been $6,000 worth of chargebacks from members, so he needs to sort that out.
Version 2 of TaketheGlobe (TTG) has been running which will include Get Paid to Sign Up, Get Paid for Actions (such as buying stuff) and Paid Surveys. That version will also include automated payments, which basically means that the same waiting period will be enforced, it's just that the admin doesn't need to be around when it comes to paying members.

OsoBux merges OldSchoolBux and NeroBux

The admin of OsoBux has bought OldSchoolBux and NeroBux, the databases from those sites have been merged. This means that you can use your logins from OldSchoolBux or NeroBux to access the site.

OsoBux is in Beta so expect things to be rocky while the OsoBux admin sorts out payments and other issues. For now I would hold off doing any purchases from the site until thier is more stability

BuxOut, Instant PayOut and Instant Scam

Baaaahhhhhhh....

I had just joined BuxOut and it turns into a scam site, heres thier announcement...

Buxout Closed

We apologize for closing, but we paid out all our capital and revenue has drastically slowed down over the past month. We are afraid we do not have the resources to continue running the site.
Any questions or concerns can be directed to support@buxout.com
Thank you for being a member of Buxout.com


Even if Revenue had slowed down, there shouldn't be a need to close if the site was run properly. I've said it before, if PTC sites are only showing ads from advertising revenue AND the advertising prices can cover what they are paying members, then there is no reason a PTC Site should close.

So this PTC Scam has been exposed, quicker than normal because they were bitten by thier Instant PayOut Policy. Good riddance to a trashy PTC Site. It screwed members big time.

CentBux, a new Instant PTC Site


Join the new Instant Paying Get Paid to Click Ads site CentBux

Free Members Clicks: $0.01
Free Members Referral Commision: $0.005
Minimum CashOut: $5

I've joined this new Instant Paying ptc site, I can't really call this a CentBux Review, but I'll add this page for future references and will update the progress on the site.

Since it is quite new, it is a great idea to get in early and get referrals.

The site does seem to have a Referral Name Problem, so I deleted the .htm part, you will be aware of this if you are a member. The script for the site looks like a cross between NeoBux and MacoBux in parts. The site is really quick.

DailyCent has a page loading error

Earlier today I was unable to access the DailyCent Website, I thought it had disappeared for good but I am happy to say that it has reappeared. However now I'm looking at their Forums and it's seems that they are still having problems with Instant Cashouts.

PerformanceBux, moving servers

It seems to be a trend for paid to click ads sites that they have to move servers to find a solution for cheaper hosting with anti-DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) services.

Currently the host they are on gives an error code -12263 which is an issue regarding thier SSL Certificate. I've been trying to use FireFox to connect to the site with no joy, so don't be surprised if this is happening to you.

For more information, visit thier Forum

Is kazariangpt a scam site?

Screenshot of kazariangpt site


So is kazariangpt a scam site?
The screen shot I have taken would point to the site being a scam, let's look at the first problem with the site.

$1 per click

This picture which was taken from the screenshot of the site shows that you will get $1 per click, most importantly, paid to your alertpay. It later states that your Balance will increase by $1.

Purchases continue with the real money theme

Another part of the picture shows that you can purchase from the site, in this case a $4 PTCVersary Special. So far nothing seems amiss.

However, and here's the scamming part
When you sign up to the site, you are informed that the site uses thier own value for a dollar. The advertising is fraudelent, the site uses mystery bucks but gives every impression that you are earning real money. As the first picture showed, $1 click is linked to Alertpay and Paypal. Last time I checked those Payment Processors, neither had mystery bucks as an exchange currency. Purchases, as seen, in the second picture are in US Dollars, not mystery bucks.

Therefore, it is likely that every person believes they are getting paid real money, and need to pay real money for purchases. kazariangpt is an example of an advertising scam and wouldn't survive a legal battle in court.

Avoid it at all costs, it's GPTNetworks, which are notorious for getting little advertising revenue due to the fact they continue to promote all thier other sites.

My taketheglobe review was number 1

Last week when I wrote up my TaketheGlobe Review it was number 1 on google, then for some odd reason it had disappeared completely from Google. I tried to search for the page to see where it was, but I couldn't locate it. Now it seems that it can be found and has this wretched duplicate meta description which is a pain in the proverbial butt. So in the end I had to dump the meta description from my blog, pity there wasn't a module where you could enter your own meta description for your blog post because as it stands I haven't found anything that does :(

ClickandBux and TheRichCash considered scam ptc sites

ClickandBux
I haven't been able to this site for a few days now, I've made up my mind and decided that the site is a scam site. It had too many referral paid adlinks, the forum was also filled with spam

TheRichCash
Far too many script errors, late payments and now the site has expired, all a recipe for a scam site which it has proved itself to be. It couldn't afford to pay me my $1.51 cashout


For a list of other scam sites

PaidClickNetwork's PTC sites run into problems

Looks like there are some problems with the Get Paid to Click Ad Sites in the PaidClickNetworks group, all barring Bux.GS. The sites affected are 10Bux, PaidClicks and B-U-X.

Message from the PaidClickNetwork's Admin
I had to remove the websites from the server and re-add them again, that was what I was told by my host, GoDaddy. I did that to 10bux.net, paidclicksnetwork.com(forum) and paidclicks.ws and everything seemed fine, they were online for a few hours today, flawlessly. All of a sudden, "poof". I deleted and added the domains again but all I got was a server default page. I'm waiting for GoDaddy to reply to my contact, I can't do anything at the moment... I have all backups I need, nothing is lost, I just have to wait for them to solve this server issue.

PersianPTC.Com should pay my grandchildren's grandchildren

Oh my goodness what is happening to all these get paid to click ads sites. Shesh I go away for a break and come back to slow paying ptc sites. It's enough to make a grown man cry.

The unmoving line
It seems like I have been waiting at 2360th position for the 33 days I have been waiting for payment. I am so confident of getting paid within the 30 days which is stated in thier terms of service, yeah, NOT !!!

3 Payments a day?
There was a post on the board that the site does 3 payments a day, so that means my grandchildren's grandchildren will probably reap the massive $5 cashout which I did. Wooohoooooo, now they can't say I didn't leave them with anything

It's smelling a touch scammy around here
Well I'm not going to call it a ptc scam, not just yet, but there is a distinct odour which is floating around the site. Whom knows, maybe it was that guy from 07Bux that visited and left the door open.

Maybe I should covert to ads
Seems like a more reasonable option, convert to ads, then dump the site, I really can't wait around forever to be paid from the site. I'll have to think about this some more.

ElektricBux.Info, thanks for coming, but sorry no scammy upgrades

ElektricBux.Info was a site I joined ages ago, it has always had problems so it's no surprise that the site is only paying Upgraded Members.

Enough is Enough
Damn, another paid to click ads site that you have to upgrade to get paid. What do those admins think? That a majority of us are so thrilled to be getting a cent per click that we have money to upgrade?

I say, PAY me first and then I'll think about it. It's not my fault you got into financial difficulty because of your own bad decisions. I've given you a unique visit for your site, which you are getting income from. I'm not a damn PTC bot, although they treat us like one. PTC Bots don't get paid and neither do members on a site where you need to upgrade.

They moan about members that cheat, yet they are perfectly fine when they do this themselves

ALL Get Paid to Click Ads Sites are SCAMS
Well actually all the ptc sites where you have to upgrade to get paid are SCAM, SCAM, SCAM sites. I've just had enough of those sites, actually I'm more mad at myself for not doing what I should have done a long time ago, DUMP the SITE.

Convert to Advertising, yeah right
As a last desperate attempt to salvage something from the site, I forlornly converted my cash earnings into advertisements, what a rip off, I'm not getting my money's worth.

The case of the disappearing Forum
It should be there !, Honest, it says that the new forum is there, come on they wouldn't lie to us would they? lol. It was there, once, gee I wonder why they removed it. I guess I should have known then ey.

ElektricBux.Info, joins the scammers
I'm convinced that people like the admin at EB are studying to be politicians, who else would have the poor business sense not to realise that thier advertising was only going to land them up the creek. It's easy to pay people when there aren't many to pay.

ElektricBux.Info Upgraded Members, bleed the site dry
Yeah that's right, take them for every cent they have and more, you owe it to us Free Members that are your PTC BOTS courtesy of EB. The quicker the site dies the better for the handful of honest ptc sites.

It was good while it lasted, naaaahhhhh rubbish, it was a crappy experience at a sub par ptc site. We owe it to ourselves to find decent ptc sites and give them our support.

Paid to Click Ads Blogging Tips

Today I thought that I would give you folks some tips regarding Paid to Click Ads Blogs. Some you may already be doing, while others may help you improve being seen at Search Engines.

Blogger is where it's at
Blogger.Com is my pick when it comes to hosting a blog, mainly because it's owned by a huge company and the blog speeds are really good. With Blogger.Com you are also able to name part of the Link which is important. I will assume that you have some Blogging Knowledge for the rest of my tips.

Words in the URL
Words in the URL are just as they sound, a word which is part of the URL. It is important as a PTC Blogger to use names related to paid to click ads. I could have named my blog, jimeous.blogspot.com, but that would mean I would miss out on having keywords for the search engines to find. And so I named my blog with the Search Engines in mind, hence ptc-get-paid-to-click.blogspot.com.

Use good Title Names
This is something I have been guilty of not doing well, mostly because I was lazy, but now I regret that because alot of good content is ignored because search engines think I'm repeating my posts. With Blogger, the Title is used as the last part of your Link, so it's yet another opportunity to have keywords or phrases there. So using a good title can improve your chances of having your Blog picked up

Paid to Click Ads Reviews
One of the best things to do is to write a review about a PTC site. When you're writing your reviews, make it of good quality because the more words you have to buffer keywords, the more favourable your position will be when people are searching for a PTC Site. If you do a preview of a site, especially new sites then you may get some nice searches really early.

Don't forget, you can also rant about a PTC Site, use nice words like scam, bots, cheats since these are popular search words.

Tags
When you're adding TAGS, the first thing I would include is the name of the site that you are reviewing, next add any other words you think people will search for but you have to make sure that these words appear in your post or you're not going to get anywhere.

Use Announcements made at the Paid to Click Ads Site
For content, go around the boards at your PTC Sites and use thier announcements. Don't forget to post a comment at thier board, with your blog link in your signature, and if you want, comment on your blog about the announcement.

REMOVE ADSENSE
If you have any PTC Sites on your blog, I would advise you to remove all adsense advertisements. It is against thier policies to show thier advertisements on a site which promotes clicking, if you have a blog on blogger and you've got adsense ads, your blog will be deleted.

Usage of the META code
Ok, now for something a little interesting, if you're new to the HTML coding then this could be daunting, but if you're not then you're probably already doing this.

* Sign in to your Blogger account
* Choose the Layout Option
* Now choose the EDIT HTML Option

You are now looking at the source code for your blog, what we are looking for is the tag <head>, under that line we will need to put in some META codes/tags

META code for Description
This is an example of my META decription.

<meta content='Easily Earn Money from Home, Get Paid to Click Ads and Get Paid to Sign-Up' name='description'/>

The parts that are in italics, is the description of your blog, you can use the name of your blog or a variant of it. Put that below the <head> tag.

META code for Keywords
This is from my source code, and is an example.

<meta content='get paid to click, earn money at home, earn money from home, free sign-ups, paid per click, paid to join, paid to signup, paid to sign-up, taketheglobe, neobux, best ptc sites, click ads, paid ads, paid to click ads, paid to click, ptc scams. ptc reviews, best ptc sites, honest ptc' name='keywords'/>

To be honest I still haven't come to terms with the keywords, I do think that it is commonsense that these are included in any page that you are creating. Since you get a new page for every posting you are doing, then it's probably wise to include the keywords you are going to be using. Don't worry too much if you aren't doing this because the tags do a similar job.

Just keep in mind that the keywords you choose to use should be surrounded by relevant words, having too many keywords isn't going to help either. Since there is alot to digest I will end it here for now. I'll probably think of a better way to do this post, but it does the job

hahahahahaha

Has it been a year since I've been paid to click ads

I think it has, man this year flew by and it's almost Christmas again :)

Last year I had no money in my Paypal Account and I am thrilled to say that....

Nothing has changed in the Department. lol

I began this journey trying to earn some money for a Rapidshare Account. I had been watching television programs and anime, sad thing was you had to download most of them. Rapidshare is a file-hosting site which is reasonably quick even for free members, unfortunately they have limits on how much you can download.

So I needed to find some way of making some money, and I needed a site using Paypal. After many failed attempts and scams, I finally found the earning niche I was looking for, PTC Sites, or Paid to Click Sites. Good thing is they accepted International Members, and it was really easy to get started.

The journey has been a rough one, more sites closed, new sites appeared and then vanished. TakeTheGlobe rose above all the other PTC Sites and rightfully claimed the title of the Best PTC Site there ever has been.

Along the way I used over half of my earnings in PTC Sites, upgrading, buying referrals and advertising my blog. I was paid $1152 for that year, a really nice amount, but I only ended up with a $427 cheque from paypal.

I did get that Rapidshare Account which lasted about 4 months, a MegaUpload Account was bought and expired and now the year is drawing to a close.

Despite all the scam PTC Sites, it is one of the only means for International Members to get paid. There are sites which have promised much, but those are for US Citizens.

My next step for my blog is to share some tips about PTC Blogging, for now though, I think I'll have a little break. It's almost school holidays which means my nephews and nieces will be spending alot of time on my computer.

For those whom joined me on this year long journey, I say a big thank you, I hope you earned some extra pocket money along the way. Happy Clicking Folks

Attempting to raise my Page Rank with Technorati

So today I decided that I had better do something to increase by Blog's Page Ranking, and I read on a website a suggestion that I head over to Technorati and claim my blog. This sounded like a brilliant idea.

So I headed over there to sign up, an e-mail was recieved so I could validated my account. Finally I got to the part where I could claim my blog. buawahahahahahahaha..

There were 2 methods of doing this, the first was using a system called OPENID, I decided not to claim my blog that way. The next is what I am doing now. You get a code from the site which you need to include in your blog.

It happens to be a link to your Technorati Profile, excellent stuff and very easy. Additionally I get to have another entry in my blog.

muawahahahhaha

Technorati Profile

Magic World Online and breaking from paid ads clicking

Recently I go addicted to an online game called Magic World Online. It's a 2.4G download so it's probably best if you use a fast internet connection to get that file. hehehehehehe..

The games is an MMORPG, or a Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, which basically means, you take a role of a character and build it up. You can do things like fighting, mining, crafting, smithing and other such chores. It's like many similar games like Runescape. The biggest difference is that the game also has an inbuilt bot, this allows you to set up your character to fight. It can buy and sell items, heal, use skills etc. This is handy when you're clicking ads, you can just switch to the game at anytime.

The game is really good and quite addictive, so I'll recommend it to any person clicking ads, it just gives you something to do in the background

Hahahahahahaha, I made the comment in this review that it looked like BuxTo, well it was prophetic because the damn site is acting like BuxTo and not paying either. Review is here to remind me of the scamminess of some people, and how stupid I was.

Bux3.com Review

This is a new PTC site that opened on the 1st Jan 2008, while it looks like Buxto, this site is not part of that Network which is good news because it means I don't have to wait 3 months to get paid, buawahahahahahaha.

Since I first posted this review things have been quite awesome at Bux3.com. I recieved my first payment within 2 Business Days because I requested on Thursday Evening in my time and got it sometime Monday Morning. A great payment of $10.67 which I was more than pleased with.

With the amount of people that have been joining Bux3.com, the server has been slow, and while it was upgraded a few days after they went public, I wouldn't be surprised if they were to move to a bigger and faster server.

Oh yeah, I'd also recommend signing up to the Forum because there are many announcements made there first. I think the major peice of news I read was that oxidation from Fast.Sc is partnered with Bux3.com, this is very reassuring news.

This Paid To Click Site is flying up the charts, already I've considered it one of the Best PTC Sites, being paid of course makes me a little biased, it also makes me a very Happy Clicker.

Bux3.com Review Updates
Things have been going great for me at Bux3.com, my downline is building up nicely and I've been paid again. The number of Ads over the last week have been 10+ which has really improved my Earnings. Bux3.com's Paypal was locked by Paypal but now it's been released, looks like I can request Paypal Payments once again, YEEEESSSSSSS !!!!!!

Rest in Peace, Sandra of SandraClicks

This is now old news, but for members belonging to SandraClicks, it was a sad time for all, especially Sandra's fiance. The reason I am writing this now is because the site is still running but I thought I'd remind people that purchasing anything from the site is highly risky. Although her fiance is doing the best he can do, the emotional stress must be over bearing, SandraClicks is probably the last thing he wants to do.

For now, continue to earn from the site, just hold of purchases for awhile. And if the site is around by next year, then we're looking at a good PTC Site, I might even sign up to it then :P

PPClix.Com Previewing the Anti-IsabelMarco site


Join PPClix, especially all you IsabelMarco Standard Members

I remember how I was introduced to this site, I was searching the web for IsabelMarco when I stumbled across a post by the PPClix.Com Admin regarding some business about IsabelMarco. It was something along the lines that he was going to donate his remaining cashout of $20,000 if they would allow him to help the site out. Typical of IsabelMarco not to take up on the offer, so the PPClix Admin washed his hands of them.

I almost immediately signed up to PPClix on the spot and probably should have but I asked a friend if they were in PPClix, which they weren't so, I signed up under them.

PPClix is a really good looking site and the earnings look really decent. This is another sustainable site and I hope it attracts advertisers because it has the BEST security I have seen at a paid to click site. There isn't much chance that cheaters are going to get through on that site which is great for all of us because cheaters take our earnings and rip ptc sites and advertisers off.

Theres something really interesting on the site regarding Referrals, you can purchase Standard Member Referrals, Premium Referrals and VIP Referrals. Like many sites, the higher your membership the more ads you get, so they prices for those referrals increase.

Now I'm not sure if I would buy anything but Standard Referrals, my thinking is that members that upgrade are generally buying a bunch of referrals to earn some money for them. This leads to them clicking less, of course if the member has just upgraded, then I'm sure you'll make a killing in earnings.

The site is very sustainable because the revenue from advertising will pay for an upgraded member and thier referral commissions.

I absolutely pray that this site stays around forever because there is so much potential in it, I really wouldn't mind if more PTC Sites used thier script because it is quite slick.

I started talking about IsabelMarco and will end on them, if you are a standard member and hate the thought of not getting paid, then line up at PPClix, it's sure to go places.

Join PPClix, especially all you IsabelMarco Standard Members

How can I tell a PTC Site is a scam?

This is a question that is often asked by many new people to get paid to click ads sites and it is a little tricky to clarify but I will do my best.

Things to look out for
There are a few things that you can look out for if the site is potentially a paid to click scam. They are as follows...

The Amount you will Earn
The Amount they charge for Advertising
The type of Advertising on the get paid to click ads site
The activity on the PTC Site's Forum
The opinion of others using a search engine.

The Amount you will Earn
This is an easy one to spot, no person is going to pay you $1 to click an ad because no advertiser is going to buy such expensive advertising. Paid to click sites which are a cent and under, can be considered as possibly good sites to visit. Anything above a cent paid per click is getting a bit sketchy.

The Amount they charge for Advertising
This is an important aspect because this is the main income for a get paid to click ads site. Ignore claims by a PTC Admin that they have low priced advertising because they have other sources of income, this is what MasterBux and DailyClicks admins claimed and as you know by now, they aren't about. Hell I even defended those Admins back in those days. GRRRRRRR.....

Lets get back on topic, at $0.01 paid to click an ad for a Free Member, and $0.01 paid per click paid as commission for thier Referrals, a ptc should be charging around $20 for advertising 1,000 paid links.

The type of Advertising on the get paid to click ads site
Many new ptc sites will have thier own paid advertising links to start off with, this is acceptable for around a month. You will be able to notice these paid ad links because they are advertising one of the following..

- Referral Links where the Referer name is always the same
- Purchasing Links for Upgrading and Referrals on the site
- ClickBank, EBook Selling etc, usually these are done by the admin

The basic thing wrong with a ptc site which has mostly these links is that the owner of the ptc site is getting no money for them, instead he is hoping to get more income when people purchase or sign up to those sites. A ptc's main income should come from revenue from sell advertising links, no sales, no money, no likely payments, probably end up be a ptc scam.

The activity on the PTC Site's Forum
There are a couple of sites I have removed based on thier Forums, clickandbux is one of those sites. The problem with their forums is that it was filled with spam, which indicated that the admin of the site really didn't care. For me it was enough to flag the site.

Usually a well maintained ptc forum, with an active admin, is a sign that the admin will do thier best not to rip anyone off. This does occur at times, mostly due to the admin over-extending themselves with self promoted paid link advertising.

The PTC forum is also a good place to look for complaints, you know, late payments, purchases not recieved and so on. It is also a good place to have your web link in your signature. Heck even if the site is a scam one, it's just worth signing up and posting so others will check out your site.

The opinion of others using a search engine.
MySearchFunds...

In short, if you haven't signed up to that Paid to Search Site, then you are missing out on earnings, I thought I'd just remind people of that in the beginning.

Searching is our friend, PTC Forum's are often filled with propoganda, some PTC Forums ban users for negative postings about thier site, so resorting to a search engine is always a good start.

Use the name of the ptc site and the word scam in your search, or you can use the name of the site and payment proof. Many new sites may not have any hits to start off with, this is normal, however long established PTC sites do have.

Just touching on this subject
So I've talked about a few things you can do to avoid scam ptc sites. Some people actually use these sites to convert thier earnings to advertising, and that's what I'd suggest if you are caught out. Remember, avoid paying your real money in a paid to click site, it really doesn't matter how "trusted" they are, the whole ptc business is so fickle and not really worth losing your savings over.

Of course once you have earnt money from your various ptc sites, then you may be tempted to purchases things from them, that's exactly what I did and I am grateful for it.

Approach a new PTC with some skepticism, however don't let yourself be too tied down by that attitude because you may just miss out. New PTC's should be promoted as soon as you can, it's at that point you can make a quick buck.

And of course, dump any PTC site which isn't meeting your expectations.

Doing stuff for MyLoT

Many of you may have heard about myLoT, it's a site where you will be paid to post, It's been a great experience for me since people may look your myLot User Profile.

Today I decided to check out adding this blog to thier site, you know, every bit of advertising helps out. I have gotten some referrals from the site, not too many but I guess it's 1 more than I would have had previously.

There is alot of things to discuss at the site and it can be good pocket money if you are interested. Anyway, if you're posting to forums without being paid, then perhaps you should do those posts at a site where you are getting paid.

Oh yeah, the site also uses Paypal as a Payment Processor, all great stuff if you ask me.

PTC.ManyHandPrints.Info Review or Preview
So I was at myLoT reading the discussions when one of the members on the board had posted that they were opening a get paid to click ads site, I thought, that's interesting. Since I haven't been joining many sites I thought, hell I may as well give the site a crack.

I was very pleased to see that the site looks very promising, not only that but is sustainable so I could definitely settle at manyhandprints, that's such a cool name too.

The site won't be fully opened until Janurary 01st 2009, so effectively this would be the first PTC site for the new year. They've got this awesome deal on at the moment, take out advertising now and it'll stay there until he starts counting in Janurary.

So there is alot to look forward to, hopefully an official domain and a dedicated server? Maybe I am getting ahead of myself, needless to say, jump aboard and get your advertising in today. It's a shame my AlertPay is empty because I would have bought ads for this blog.

I was searching google a day after I posted this ptc.manyhandprints.info preview/review and I noticed that using the word "manyhandprints", the first link was to thier site and it had my referral.

buawahahahahahahaha

UrOnlineBux, sorry you're not getting my personal details

UrOnlineBux is part of a group which monitors Get Paid to Sites, thier reviews range from insightful to thoughtless as does any half decent site which is reviewing GPT [Get Paid To] Sites. Especially since many of thier reviews come from normal surfers.

We have too many cheaters
Like almost all paid to click sites, UrOnlineBux found out that there are cheaters that are trying to make a quick buck from the site. Unlike the better paid to click sites, UrOnline decided that it is better to ask for personal identification than to fix up thier $1 script. Yeah I know it cost more than a buck for the script, but the point is, they seem to have become slaves to the script rather than having it work for them.

We're honest, we won't use you Personal Identification
How many times have we heard that, the truth is, the site may have intergrity, but people do not. If they can't fix thier cruddy script to detect cheaters, then what chance do they have of a staff member using the information for fraudelent purposes. If thier script isn't secure, what makes them certain that a hacker can't access thier system.

I'm honest, so no thanks, I'd rather lose my earnings at a paid to click site than lose alot more by providing a paid to click site with proof of my identity. It wouldn;t take them much to use that at paypal claiming someone stole thier account then provide them with those personal details.

It's about keeping it real
A paid to click site should never need to have your personal details. if I can have an account at Paypal, which deals with billions of dollars, that I don't need to verify, then why on earth would justify me giving that information to another site.

There was a site in the past which did that, no big surprise that it is no longer around.

I should cancel my cashout
If only I could, then I could convert to Advertising, the site is still paying and it is a decent site for most parts, but to expect me to give them proof of whom I am is ridiculous. I might still click then ask if I can cancel my cashout, but as long as they have such a ridiculous policy of needing proof, it won't be one of my favourite sites.

I guess this is an UrOnlineBux Review of sorts, it's not really praising the site much though

IsabelMarco, the pains of being a standard member

I've been a member of IsabelMarco since almost the beginning of the site. For the early part the site was really good, quick paying with alot of ads. But I was very naive back then, I didn't realise that their advertising income wouldn't be able to pay thier members.

I didn't realise that they were getting no income from half the ads I was clicking on because they had paid links for thier own Referral Sites. There was alot of warnings from people regarding IsabelMarco and that they weren't sustainable. Some Forums' the admin at IsabelMarco defended themselves, saying they would always pay members and they didn't rely on advertising for income.

Well 6 months and more has past and IsabelMarco have been caught with thier pants down. Not only did 90% of the sites they had as paid to click ad links closed down, but they have admitted that they couldn't pay members because they had no money.

If they screw with Standard Members
I think it was a week after I requested a payment at IsabelMarco when they changed thier policy to only pay Upgraded Members. Usually I don't monitor when I a getting a payment until a month later, and that's when I found out about the change. Man that pissed me off because there is no way I am going to upgrade on that site.

They said something on the board along the lines that 60% of Standard Members are cheaters, cheaters that they sold as Referrals, and cheaters they kept to attract advertisers. When the truth and evidence is, that IsabelMarco screwed Standard Members and that makes them 100% Cheaters.

Thanks for Paying but we're taking them
For all purposes, Referrals and Upgrades are Goods you purchase, Upgrading Membership is almost always temporary, but purchasing Referrals is permanent. Someone forgot to tell the folks at IM [IsabelMarco] that, and now they have removed all Referrals that were purchased from the site. Really stinks, thank goodness I didn't buy any from the site.

IsabelMarco, the definition of a Ponzi Site
If you ever wondered what a Ponzi Site is, IsabelMarco is a good example. They are not paying Standard Members, yet they are using them as BOTS to finance thier Referral Rentals. This is PONZI behaviour, a site where you need to upgrade to invest, a site where you are expected to put money in to recieve money back.

Being a standard member at IM isn't worth it, at $9 for a month's Upgrade with NO guarantee of getting paid before it expires means the site isn't worth looking at. Who are they kidding at the site, allowing Standard Members to buy thier IMShares but never paying them.

Time to move on
The sooner the site dies the better but I hope every member that has put in some money in the site gets it back. The site is broke, by thier own doing and at thier current advertising rates will be the worst investment for any person. It is better to cut your ties to the site sonner rather than later.

I've never done an IsabelMarco Review, so this will be as close as it gets, I'm still very unhappy at the site.

Rest In Peace DailyClicks

It was the first place to pay me, the first site I bought an Upgrade from, for me it was a great site for many months. I've used the money on the site to get referrals for other sites.

Along with other sites of the era like, ClickzVault, Bux3, MasterBux and even the adult site PornoBux, all helped me buy a Rapidshare and Megaupload account, at least for a short time.

In the end, DailyClicks scammed it's members, so no matter all the good things that are said about the site, it is a scammer site. The reality is, the site is gone, many people lost thousands of dollars, many people lost thier faith.

Some celebrate that the site is gone, I don't, not because I had a pending cashout of around $400, but because there were others whom put money into the site that were scammed. I was lucky, I got my money back, most were not.

So it's goodbye to one of the first sites which had a crazy amount of ads. I'm lucky I was ignorant back then, or I would have never been paid $148 from the site. I know differently today, sites that have too many ad links that the Owner is financing will eventually get caught with thier pants down.

So now a gravestone is put up on a site with high promises but no delievery, there would be others that followed in those footsteps over my time, but it will be the one I remember with both sadness and madness.

This will be the final version of my DailyClicks Review, a sad end to a promising PTC Site

ClickzVault.Net Review Update ** 28 Oct 2008 **
Looks like we're back in business at ClickVault.Net, and the cashout is $1.00, brilliant stuff, I'll keep the rest of the review the same while I monitor the progress of the site.


ClickzVault.Net Review
On March 07 2008, due to lack of funding, ClickzVault.Net became an Ads Only Site, for many people this was disappointing because it was one of the few sites that had Paypal Payments. But whatever disappointments we felt, paled in comparison with the decision Twysted came to, when changing his site to Ads Only. It wasn't an easy choice and he knew he'd get abused for it, but it was a choice he had to make because income wasn't coming in. Many PTC owners have had to make this choice and those that remain I believe have made a good decision because it gives members an opportunity to use thier existing earnings for Advertising. It's taken me almost a week to write this review because I really wanted to see how ClickzVault.Net would turn out as an Ad's Only Site.

Advertising Opportunites on ClickzVault.Net
CV or ClickzVault.Net ranks as being one of the cheapest Paid To Click Sites to buy Advertising, thier prices are more than reasonable. Advertisers are ensured that REAL people are viewing thier Ads because Twysted is using a "
CHTGC Link" Check point. If you're an advertiser, this is the site you want your Advertising to be on. You can purchase Click Advertising, either Micro or Full Ad Views, Registration Ads, Sponsor Links, Text Site Links and Banner Advertising.

Click Advertising
There are 2 main types of Click Advertising, Full Ads which last 30 seconds or Micro Ads that last for 10 seconds. For $4 you can get 1,000 Micro Ad clicks, this is a great price and an excellent way to get a boost of Traffic especially if you want to promote new Paid to Click Sites.

Registration Advertising
This type of Advertising is a great way to get Referrals at rock bottom prices. Why pay around a buck each for Referrals at thier PTC Site when you can get Sign-Ups for a fraction of the cost. For as little as $3.55 you can place an Ad for 50 Sign-ups, but you'll probably want to spend $8.50 for 50 Sign-ups though, this will be 50 sign-ups @ $0.10, which is a very good offer and will keep you ahead of the competition. Twysted ensures that Registration Advertisers aren't getting stuffed about by members trying to get a free ride, so you're going to get members that will click for you :)

Sponsorship Advertising
$15 for a 30 day Sponsor's link has got to be the best bargain you'll find on a PTC site

Click HERE To Get Credited Link [CHTGC]
ClickzVault uses a CHTGC Link when the timer runs out on an Ad, you must click on it to get credit. This is a major improvement over the previous Credit Me Button because it allows you time to view the page rather than being distracted by continually looking up at a "button".

ClickzVault.Net Staff
Twysted is the type of Administrator that strives to get the best out of his site, he's continually tweaking it and testing out new ideas based on all his experiences in the Paid To Click Business. He's doesn't back away from criticism when it is justifiable but will defend his position until the very end when he knows he's right. He's shown that even when his site is Financially strapped for cash he'll make sure that his members can at least use thier earnings for Advertising, hence the birth of ClickzVault.Net the Ad's Only Site.

My overall experiences with Twysted and the rest of the CV Staff has been outstanding, all questions were answered within a good amount of time and script problems were fixed within moments. Even with the tough transition to an Ads Only Site, the Staff were brilliant.

ClickzVault.Net Overall Impressions
My overall experience at ClickzVault is that it has been a wonderful place to earn money when it was a Paid To Click Site. I've been fortunate to be the recipient of many benefits, which include Free Advertising for my Blog, Free Upgraded Memberships, Free Registration Ads and winning extra Earnings.

Since the change to an Ad's Only Site, I've been lucky that my Blog is continued to be sponsored, and I've got Free Click Advertising. The site is looking great as an Ads Only site with plenty of Ads being available for members.

Ads Only Site


Ads: 15+

Standard Referral Commission: $0.0025
Payment Processors: AlertPay, Paypal
Instant Payouts: AlertPay
Standard CashOut Minimum: $2.00
Referral Renting: $0.30 per month

Sustainability test - Passed
The most major contribution of revenue comes from Paid Advertising Links, the test is to see if the Paid to Click Site can sustain it's site if all advertising was bought from the outside.

Paid Advertising Links: $11 per 1000 Ad Hits
Upgraded Benefits: 100% Referral Commission, no additional income for Member
Cost of Upgraded Member + 999 Referrals: $9.98

Additional Sources of Income for the Site
This is looking at any extra income the site is making, usually this is used to pay for Server Costs and other Expenses which may occur

Banner and Text Advertising
This is also known as Impression Advertising, in short it's advertising which is pure profit because members are not being paid to view it or click on those links.

Referral Rentals
Since all member costs are covered in the Paid Advertising links, all monies from this aspect is profit for the site

Membership Upgrades
Again, this is profit for the site since members costs are already been taken care of.

Overall Impression - 10/10
So far everything is looking great for the site to stay around for some time, now the only thing which would get the site into financial problems is if it starts promoting it's own links. Sign up today and start.

This is a PerformanceBux Review bought to you by me, well it's more of a preview of the site.

AlertPay Cheque of US$427 Arrived today

AlertPay Cheque arrived
I've had a few problems at AlertPay trying to do a Bank transfer to my Account, so I contacted them asking if they supported New Zealand Banks or if the error was related to the Bank Account I used.

In 2 short replies, neither answered those questions, rather it was a copy and paste of the information they had on thier Website. To put it bluntly, the information found on thier site wasn't helpful at all, that's what I was sending the contact in for. It was totally frustrating.

The downside is I lost around $US30+ from exchanging US Dollars to New Zealand and then back again. I'll remember that for next time.

Requesting and waiting for a Cheque
In the end I thought the best option for me was to request a cheque, the "paperwork" or the process was done quickly on the 24th October 2008, which was very pleasing, now was to wait for the cheque to arrive.

Did you know it takes 18 days for mail to be recieved from the US if you live in New Zealand? Well it's something I would find out, with much impatience and worry. I worried that I wouldn't be able to cash the cheque in if it arrived too late. Actually it probably took 15 days if they mailed it out 3 days later.

It's here !!!!!!
Today was a good day, I checked my mail and a nice AlertPay Cheque was waiting for me. $427 United States Dollars, it's actually the first real money I've recieved from my PTC Site because the money in my AlertPay and Paypal Accounts I consider virtual, or not existing until I have some foldy stuff in my hand :)

So for those whom can't get Bank Transfers to work, or are not willing to pay US$15 for a Bank Wire at AlertPay, then try requesting a cheque. Remember it has to be in US Dollars so make sure you have a Bank Account that will accept the currency.

Reflecting on the future

Reflecting on the future
Right now things with TaketheGlobe are going great, I've earned a considerable amount from the Paid To Click Ads Site but I have invested more money than any other Paid To Click Ad Site.

Instant PayOut Sites
In the near future I will be looking at Instant PayOut Sites, these tend to have become quite popular with people although I suspect the they are sell Bots. For those whom don't know what a Bot is, it is a program which will click Ads for you. Ironically if you as a member of a PTC Site use such a program you'll get banned. Bots in the case where PTC Owners use them, is a small piece of coding which will click an amount of ads. PTC Owners sell these off as Referrals.

The best think you can do when signing up to an Instant PayOut site is, don't upgrade, and refuse to buy anything from the site. If I were an advertiser, I wouldn't be purchasing advertising from the site. If you have, check your logs for your site to ensure you are getting what you paid for.

Last time I recall this site was ripped off by one of it's Hosting Revenues, I recall there being ample warning by the admin about closure, I hadn't really earnt much at the site, I'll keep this here for now.


Earning-Cash.Net Review

It's strange at times, this site isn't the a big PTC earner, but the Admin is brilliant. He's forking out most of the Ads out of his own pocket by the looks of things, especially during the Christmas - New Years period when there were a few he had sponsored. I missed out a $10 Ad because I was totally drunk, then again even if I did see it I probably wouldn't have had the vision to see the Ad or the skills to click it :)

Sign-Up Ads
I like this site, mostly because it seems to be run by an Admin that's trying to do his best, so you'll see that the earnings per clicks will drop from time to time. I've got a couple of Ads on the site, a Fast.Sc one which I've gotten some Referrals from and a DailyClicks.Bix one which has been slow because someone else put up a bigger bid. Of course I'm so confident that you'd sign up under my Ad since I know you love me.... right?? buawahahahahahaha.

Earning-Cash.Net is a site that's going places because the Admin, simon4u92 is active at many of the PTC Boards which means the site is trusted :) I hope you all enjoy this site just as much as I do, and I leave you with Happy Clicking Folks.

** shameless Ad plug **
My Sign-Up Ads have jimeous in the links, remember jimeous, ignore those other bigger bids, jimeous

2008.10.22 - TaketheGlobe.Com Payment Proof

WOAAAAHHHHHH !!! $366.46, the highest I've ever been paid from any PTC Site, I have bought most of my Referrals from the site, I have 356 so far which is great. TTG is the only site paying me at the moment, other PTC Sites have been really slow in payments, thank goodness for TaketheGlobe. If you still haven't joined this PTC then you are missing out on some great earnings.

Sites are closing, earnings are tough


Many PTC Sites have closed, others remain open but I don't feel much confidence in them. I have advised that you avoid buying things from a PTC mostly because the risk is very high that you'll never see a return.

The DailyClicks sites were good to me in the past, but like many others that had paid me once or twice they vanished leaving hundreds of dollars owing to me.

Other sites have decided to "NIL" my account along with others I predict that these will turn out to be scam sites as well since there is no site remaining and paying that have done that. Paid-Bux is a huge culprit of this, waiting for a payment, then they deleted my account, no reason given. Since I've never cheated on a PTC site and I had been waiting to get paid from the site for ages, I dumped it as the trash it deserved.

Another thing to watch out for is PTC Sites that ask for Photo ID, this happened at UrOnline. I got 1 payment from the site, but once they've asked for that it was a clear sign of a scam. No site that has asked for Photo ID has remained in the PTC Industry because they all proved to be scams.

Many other PTC Sites that I belonged to have closed over this past year, some with a payment while others were just scams, the few decent ones that remain are also finding it tough but some of the admins from those sites are now stopping payments to ex-PTC owners. A good move if you ask me.

2008.09.07 - TaketheGlobe.Com Payment Proof

Yay it's September, the month I get older and feel even more ancient, and what a great way to bring in my birthday month than with a payment of $103.69 from TTG. This site has easily surpassed all the PTC sites I've been a member of in both experience and payments. This is the highest single payment I have recieved from a PTC Site, it's also the site I have the most Referrals for so it's great to see that others are making money from TaketheGlobe. It's not too late to jump on the bandwagon if you're not already a member

Woah sweet TaketheGlobe

Today at TTG they were testing out thier script, I thought that the testing had been completed, so I bought my 50 Referrals after having enough from their recent payout. To my surprised I was hooked up with an additional 50 Referrals, talk about a sweeeeeettttt deal :)

Oh man, I am so glad I joined this PTC Site and have been buying Referrals there :)
