Bux3, bought 10,000 ad links got 808 hits

Talk about getting ripped off, seems really scammy that I got a fraction of the hits from my advertising at that site. I thought at least I would get value for money. I guess I can kiss the $221 I have left in the account goodbye.

It's been such a bad experience at Bux3, once a promising paying site, that I'm just going to have to convert the last of my money into more advertising.

The Bux3 Archive shows the ad expired with 10,000 hits
The E-Referrer module for my blog shows only 808 hits
And my Expert Counter shows there were 4,000+ hits yesterday

Ahhhh Well, I'll convert the last of my money into 10,000 hits for another PTC Site then I'll likely dump the PTC forever

Adverbux has a nice number of ads

Adverbux has been around for some time now. It has survived the Paypal lock out of admins of Paid to Click Ads sites. Admins from now scam sites used to accuse AdverBux of many things, but the truth was revealed when AdverBux lasted and thier PTC sites failed.

It hasn't been caught up in the hype of lower payments, so the $10 cashout remains, as does thier impressive record of payments over that time they have been up.

There are at least 10 Ads a day at the site, and recently they have included Adult Advertising which I think is a good move considering that is one of the biggest industries on the Internet.

So if you are looking for a stable, well recognised Get Paid to Click Ads site, then Adverbux is the place you want to be

MacoBux scams to Ads Only

Well this doesn't really come as a surprise, the site has had ad problems where members couldn't view any. Here's the e-mail from the admin..

hello members, macobux is going to change some things...
I can't pay members because there wasn't any purchase over 1 AND 1/2 MONTH so i decided remake macobux to only advertising company. I feel sorry for this but there is no way for me.

Hope you understand it. Thank you.

Also I would to recommend you this awesome new PTC which offer you premium if you will join there untill 10.000 members reached(at the moment is there over 7260 members registered) - site is still in prelaunch. check news section on their forum. It's not regular PTC, check it and you will know it.

Thank you.

Macobux Team

Take not of the part which says, I can't pay members because there wasn't any purchase over 1 AND 1/2 MONTH. This means that the site was putting up ads which was costing the owner and one of the reasons decent PTC sites go from paying to a get paid to click ads scam site.

Most of us would prefer to be paid from a site, we've seen enough PTC Scam Sites and are just hoping that there would be a few more paying sites. While it is good that the admin is keeping the site as an Ads only site, the truth is, people lost REAL MONEY when making purchases from the site.

I will probably not click at the site because I prefer to use Traffic Exchanges where you get better value for your clicking. The site really didn't last that long, so t's goodbye MacoBux

Is 247Bux a scam?

247Bux is a reasonably decent PTC site that has paid members and will continue to do so, but let us take a closer look at the site in this little 247Bux Preview

Unsustainable PTC Site
No matter which way you look at it, when your advertising revenue is not going to cover the expense you're paying to Standard Members, then your site is screwed. Currently, 247Bux is charging a low $6.95 for 1,000 ad links which is a good thing for advertisers. However the site pays $10.00 to standard members for viewing those 1,000 ad links, which means for every 1,000 Ads, the site is losing the minimum of $3.05.

No money for Referrals and Upgraded Members
Most people are under the illusion that a PTC site can function when members purchase Referrals and Upgrades from a site, but the problem is. If the site is struggling to finance thier Standard Members, where will they get the money for members that purchase from the site? Revenue from Sales of Referrals and Upgrades will not last long, and with 247Bux, that is already losing money, this isn't a good sign.

Click on a certain amount of Ads to be paid
Now there is nothing wrong with requiring members to click a certain amount of ads before they will get paid when it is something already stated before a member joins. However there is something seriously screwed up when a PTC site decides that's the way they should go while the site is already been online for a few months.

Instant Paying Premium Members only
NeoBux doesn't need to do it, it pays all members instantly, so why do other sites think they can get away with it? In short, the site is struggling for advertising revenue, so they must promote Upgraded Membership to get money, it is called a Ponzi Scheme. This seems to be a common scam that PTC sites use when they have low advertising prices, or have too many ads that the admin has put up. While it is a benefit to upgraded members, I personally wouldn't upgrade on any site where thier advertising revenue is not going to be enough to pay standard members.

What the hell? Invest then lose Referrals?
Who on earth thought of that scammy rule? It shouldn't matter how much profit a person makes at a PTC, but to penalise them for making that profit is complete stupidity. Members that are purchasing from a PTC Site should expect a decent return with no added strings, BUT we've seen sites like IsabelMarco pulling the same excuse regarding "profit" and deleting referrals.

IndyMom will can invest more 4 times after that she will change to platinum, it's make her referrals gone and she will earn 0.1$ per click and etc. ( All of rules and conditions will show on TOS soon, i'm still create it.) - Admin, 247Bux

Promises to pay standard members
With the new "clicking a certain amount of ads" rule, this should give 247Bux the chance at getting money to pay standard members which is an excellent thing. But will the site be able to last over the long period doing the same? Absolutely not, eventually it will turn out like IsabelMarco which pays only Upgraded Members. Or like a Mike Pratt site like Earn3 which has the daily limit cashout scam.

Conclusion: Is 247Bux a scam?
Since it is continuing to pay members, the site is functioning below the scam radar. However it is certain that if the admin continues to underfund thier account by low advertsing, the site is destined to join many similar scams that have low advertising prices.

With it's new investment rule, the site is not worth investing in, actually the site being unsustainable is the reason you should stay clear. You can take the chance with this site if you choose.

OsoBux had some wierd page

What a wierd page I got when trying to view OsoBux, it look all strange to me. It had all these jumbled letters and no links of any kind. Let's hope that the situation is fixed quickly

MacoBux has an Ad Problem

Well I can't seem to click any ads at MacoBux, it's been like that for a week now so something is going wrong at that site. I've tried using Firefox 3 which was suggested by the Admin at thier Forums but that doesn't seem to work either. So I'm nt sure what I will do

PPClix was down for a few hours

PPClix was down earlier when I tried to log on, but it looks like the site is up and running. I'm not sure if it was there or not but I did notice that you can only earn from referral clicks if you click ads as well. The server is really slow though, let's hope it improves in speed

Insta-Bux Scam PTC Site now gone

Well it is official, there is no longer a page at the get paid to click ads scam site Insta-Bux. It really doesn't come as much of a surprise, it only is irritating that we have wasted our time at the site. Worse still I decided to do a preview of the site and it turned out to be junk.

Ahhhh.... well, it's better that the pain of the scam was quick, than learning too late that it was a scam.

BuxKingdom deleted my Account

Well looks like we have another get paid to click ads scam site. For no reason at all, my account at BuxKingdom has gone. The site has been struggling over the last few months where there has been only 1 ad per day. I had been clicking that ad since it was a quick thing to do. Now I find that my e-mail account no longer exists. This is a clear signal that the PTC site is heading toward scamming members. If you were a member then I'd advise you to stop wasting your time at that PTC scam site.

Is Bux.To a Scam?

Of all the PTC sites out there, the one which raises the most doubt about being a scam site is Bux.To. I have been waiting since April 2008 for my payment, I find that inexcusable for a PTC Site to delay payments for 8 - 9 months and counting. I'm almost convinced the site is a PTC Scam from my own experiences.

It has all the ingredients of a paid to click scam.

Self Sponsored Ads
Throughout the year I have been a member of Bux.To, almost 50% of thier Ads were put up by the owner. One of thier Ads, which is for T-Shirts has 657768 or will cost the owner $6577.68. In the past there were ads for Upgrading and purchasing Referrals.

Unrealistically slow Payments
The Get Paid to Click Ads site NeoBux is proof that a site can pay instantly and in big cashouts, it probably is the measure of how good a PTC can be. Waiting 8 - 9 months for a payment is completely ridiculous, it is an attribute of all the scam sites.

Bux.To the PTC Scam Site
I have to concur with people whom have been calling the site a scam, some have reported that thier accounts were deleted after asking about thier payment. These are members that have purchased from the site, now they are worse off because of the scammers at Bux.To.

Dump the Site
If you're not a member of Bux.To, then don't sign up, you'll be wasting your time. If you are a member and waiting for a cashout, just click an ad a day, once you get paid, convert anything remaining into advertsing, then dump the site.

Conclusion
I thought it was about time I did a bux.to review which I guess this post represents, it has been a disappointing get paid to click ads site to be a member of, and the number of excuses they have given over the last year is unacceptable. Some people have been paid there, a fraction of the members waiting for cashout, but don't you be fooled into thinking they will pay you.

Bux3 now Instant PayOuts

Looks like my money was returned to my account, again, making it 11 months since I was paid by the site. The latest move at Bux3 is to promise instant payments for upgraded members.

As I don't trust the site anymore, I've decided to convert my earnings which was $521, into advertising since I have no confidence that Standard Members will be paid from the site

ReachBux Suspended yet again

Well looks like the Get Paid to Click Ads Site ReachBux has been suspended again, the last time it happened was due to an influx of new members which put a strain on the server. I thnk it might be time for the admin of ReachBux to seriously consider a Dedicated Server for the site. Of course that's if there is the money to support such a move.

Insta-Bux.Net is a get paid to click ads scam site which is now gone, if it returns, don't bother with it

Insta-Bux History 17 Dec 2008 - Bandwidth Exceeded 22 Dec 2008 - Site WatchListed 09 Jan 2009 - Site is a SCAM and is gone

Hahahahahahaha, I'm on a roll here, this is yet another Banner which I filched from a Forum, I'm getting good at this.

Today we have a brand spanking new Instant PayOut Site, I love these sites and should include more of them in my blog for you folks. Insta-Bux looks to be a good site from what I've seen so far.

Really good earning rates at this site, and if it's like any of the other Instant CashOut Sites, this one is going to explode. All the nice things you'd expect from an Instant CashOut site is there, rented referrals are available, although they are a little pricey for a Standard Member.

They have a weekly upgrade which looks tempting, $5, I'd guess that you could upgrade, buy 20 Referrals and should earn your money back. As for me, I'll just plug my blog all over the place like I do because I'm a cheapskate :)

The layout of the site is very nice, it's quick to click the ads which is refreshing, I am looking forward to how the site shapes up over the next few months, for now I'll be there clicking away, I hope to see you there :)

Click for a Buck? Yea Right

Sooner or later you will run into a get paid to click ads site which is promising a Buck for each Ad you Click, naturally anyone with a sound mind would think you will be getting paid a real dollar for viewing an ad. Now if earnings were that simple, they'd be a hundred thousand millionaires which earnt thier cash through ad clicking.

These are all paid to click scams because what you will be REALLY earning is a fraction of a cent. Let's look at some examples of this advertising fraud.

KazarianGPT
I've actually done a posting regarding this site on my blog, you can find the link here

MysteryPTC
Run by the same people whom bought you KazarianGPT, offering $1 per click but getting around $0.01 per advertising link in revenue. Theres no way you will be getting paid a buck per click, in fact I doubt you will even get a cent of real money per click.

ClickForABuck
Probably the worst case of the buck a click sites, it's most recent purchasing special for $20.20, you could buy 560,000 link credits. Which means that's probably how many links you will need to click to earn even a fraction of the $20.20 it is getting. Really, not worth your time to be at that site.

Thier Terms of Service
Nestle in thier ToS, you will find something along the lines, that the money you earn isn't real and is based on the advertising revenue the site gets. In other words, those PTC Sites can decide how much they pay you for the clicks you do and can change thier mind at a drop of the hat. And that is part of thier ptc scam, what you are led to believe that you will be getting a buck, is in fact up to the admin of the site how much you will get paid.

Move along, move along
Some people do like those sites, perhaps they like monopoly money as well, hehehehehe. The truth is, you're much better off at other PTC Sites that are showing you how much you will really earn from clicking ads, than the click for a buck get paid to click ad sites where you'll never earn a "real cent" per ad click.

DailyCent, no Surf Page and No Forums

Well looks like it is official, well at least from where I am looking. DailyCent has no surf page although you can log in. The Forum is down which is the best indication that the admin is about to do a runner. After failing with thier first site 1stBux, it looks like DailyCent is on the same path of being a ptc scam site. No real surprise if we look at the evidence, so for 2009, DailyCent becomes the first scam site I've joined of the year. For many of us, this is very frustrating, it's of no wonder that people are avoiding earning through get paid to click ads sites.

TaketheGlobe, Best to use Firefox

If you're a member of TaketheGlobe you may find that certain Browser aren't showing all the ads, Firefox is a great Browser and one of my preferred choices. With Firefox you may need to allow popups from Taketheglobe. At the writing of thos blog post, the get paid to click ads site, TaketheGlobe had 102 ads for Free Members. That's an incredible $0.51 for free members if they click all the ads, for upgraded members like myself, it's a massive $1.42 with the extra 40 ads.

Remember also, that the CashOut line will be cleared on the 29th January 2009, so if you're not a member, get in quick because you will be able to easily reach cashout by that date if you start clicking today

TaketheGlobe paying everyone on 29th Jan 2009

I recieved an e-mail from the admin of TaketheGlobe.

TTG has re-opened. Sadly we've had to temporarily re-instate V1 however there is also some great news to go along with the dreary news. We've secured funding of 200,000.00 USD via an Angel Investment.. We will be running V1 while we refine V2 as we've encountered a few serious security issues while working with the V2 merge. V2 requires more refinement. Our goal is to wipe the entire payout queue on January 29th and try for another V2 launch the following day. You will be able to re-request another payout upon launch of V2 with your balance. While we refine V2 further and run V1 only minimal portions of the forum are to remain active to try and help control overall server loads so we are able to continue refining V2 in the back end.

Happy New Year. May 2009 bring prosperity to all.

It looks like the entire CashOut Queue will be cleared on 29th January, while that is excellent news I was hoping to be paid a little sooner. But that's just being picky, so we await the countdown for Jan 2009. It also means that I will have a bigger cashout for Version 2

December 2008 Top 5 PTC Sites

Last Month there were some really excellent Get Paid to Click Ads Sites which made me think, I should start recognising the sites that have been great to be a member of, so without further hesistation, I bring you December 2008's Top 5 PTC Sites that I was a member of.

TaketheGlobe.Com
Although at the end of the month there was downtime as Bryan the Admin was trying to incorporate Version 2, TaketheGlobe for me was still the best PTC Site out there. The number of Ads for free members is staggering, on average around $0.40 can be earnt for free members. Join TaketheGlobe here

NeoBux.Com
One of the original, if not the original, Instant Paying PTC Sites, this site is still going strong, possibly because it has a set minimum of 4 Ads per day. That means you won't need to spend much time on the site. I've been testing thier Rented Referral System and it isn't too bad, but it would benefit Upgraded Members more than any other member they have. Join NeoBux here

Paid2Site.Com
Launched last month, this exciting new Aurora Script PTC site looks really promising, possibly the best of the Aurora Sites that have come out in recent times. Payments are being made regularily and the site is growing steadily. The admin has been great in helping out my blog by posting insightful comments. Join Paid2Site Here

PTC.ManyHandPrints.Info
It shows how impressed I was with this site because it was just in pre-launch mode in December. The reason it appears as my Top 5 is purely because the Admin went out of his way to promote the site to advertisers before it's launch. It's a real shame my Paypal and AlertPay accounts were empty because I could have had some sweet advertising at the site. It's launch on January 2009 is also looking promising for Jan's Top 5 list. Join ManyHandPrints Here

WordLinx.Com
For our last spot I thought I would have a site which recently celebrated it's 5th year in the Get Paid to Click Ads industry. This is a site which is the grand daddy of them all and living proof that all PTC sites when managed well can survive for a long time. My biggest regret is that I never promoted the site for the last year I had been clicking Ads. 2009 may be the year where WordLinx finally gets the credit it so richly deserves. Join WordLinx Here

Conclusion
There are other PTC sites which I would have considered such as

ClickSia - I just got my first payment from this site on Christmas Day too
PerformanceBux - an under-rated new PTC site which is very sustainable
PPclix.Com - Another new PTC Site which looks really promising
SimpleClicker.Com - An Aurora Site which I really haven't promoted, but I've won so much from.

January 2009 is going to be an interesting month and I hope for all of us that are trying to scrape up a few cents a day, payments from our PTC Sites. I would recommend being an active member of my December 2008 Top 5 List, you really aren't going to find many better PTCs out there. So as we await January's list, let's see if the list changes

Is it worth clicking a few ads a day

If you have been clicking ads to earn money, you'll be aware that there are many get paid to click ads sites with only a handful of ads. It seems that most people don't want to click at these sites because the earnings are so low. In my experience, that is a mistake because the PTC sites which tend to be around for a few months also seem to have a fixed amount of ads for the Standard Member. This is usually around 4 - 5 per day. The most trusted PTC Site, Wordlinx, has on average around 2 ads per day, some days there are more and other days there is none.

The best thing about PTC Sites with a low number of ads is that you're not really spending much time on the site, so in the event it does turn out bad, you've not wasted much time.

We are all impatient, we all want to make money quickly, but the reality is, unless you have alot of referrals, clicking ads to get paid isn't a get rich quick scheme. With a little patience, you will be getting paid by those sites with a low number of ads so in the end, it is well worth it.

NeoBux, an instant payout ptc site, has had a minimum of 4 ads for some time now, where other instant payment sites have been and gone, NeoBux continues to pay it's members. I've already mentioned WordLinx, 5 years and going strong. These are just 2 examples of get paid to click ads sites that are working.

So if you are at a site where there are only a handful of ads, why not click them, earn those few pennies because it will all build up and one day you'll be smiling like me.

Happy Clicking Folks

TaketheGlobe Review, Simply the Best Paid to Click Ads Site

Man that blew, this was once of the best PTC sites for me, I would have been grinning at the money I was going to make, instead I'm crying at the lost opportunity. Faith and Loyalty are 2 words that seem to be hard to achieve by a majority of PTC owners. Ahhhh weellll that part of the journey is over.

Overall Impression - 10/10
TaketheGlobe.Com has been easily the best Paid to Click Site I have been a member of since starting this last year. I've wanted to do a review of the site, but you've seen how I tend to jinx myself with reviews.

hahahahahahahahaha

I have been paid 15 times from the site since I joined on March 18th 2008. At that time the site was one of the few sites to offer $0.005, a fish out of water since other sites were offering a cent a click. It featured around 20 Advertisements at the time, so an earning of $0.10 was even better than 90% of the get paid to click sites offering that cent.

Slowly but surely the site moved forward, like other ptc sites, suffering at the hands of the "powers that be" at Paypal. Still Bryan the admin, soldiered on, more ads would appear and payments were being made.

May 02nd 2008 is a day I will always remember because it was the day I was paid by TTG (TaketheGlobe], $10.69, a really nice amount. 24 days later I would get my second payment from the site, a healthy $31.61.

I decided to use the earnings I recieved from TaketheGlobe to upgrade on the site, the risk was low since I wouldn't be any worse off. In fact I should have upgraded from the beginning because it turned out to be the best move I had ever made because my earning doubled.

June was an incredible month for me at TTG, there weren't many members at the site, I was earning good money, for a Paid to Click Site and I was getting paid in my AlertPay Account. 6 Payments if I recall correctly, I decided to take a chance and buy some referrals. Best damn move I made, no, I correct that, joining TaketheGlobe was the best move I had made.

And the rest is history, Referrals were bought and won from TTG, the site moved on to become bigger than ever, and the people that weren't signing up to under a cent were lining up in numbers.

The admin is brilliant on the site, he's on his Forums daily and is always trying to push things.

Over time, as the site has grown, payments are slower to recieve, but it's good to see that the payment queue is moving, some days he'll rip through them, other times, due to problems with the site it's slower.

Overall, everything is going brilliantly at the TaketheGlobe and the admin has bigger plans for the future. This get paid to click ads site has single handedly given me faith in the service and continues to encourage me to invest. For now I've been happy to finally get REAL money from the site when I cashed out a cheque from AlertPay for $427 US Dollars.

With the cash I went crazy and gave money to my family and got rip snortingly drunk. I do look forward to the future with the site, especially my next payment which I will hopefully be able to get by Christmas.

Thanks Bryan of TaketheGlobe, I hope your site continues to thrive in these uncertain times. For now I'll have this as a TaketheGlobe Review.

ReachBux Admin on a 3 day break

Message from the site

Hello dear users, I am leaving for a vacation for 3 days.
Payment nor support will be able in this time. payment and support will set imidietly after i back.
P.S. ALL the changes that i promised to apply on the 30/Dec, will be applied on the 03/Jan
(i will release today 500 unreferred members like i promised).
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERY BODY FROM REACHBUX.COM !!!

Although the spelling is a concern, it is good to see an admin informing members of thier intended absence. It is the holiday period so it's quite normal for people to take a break.

TaketheGlobe to return on Friday 02 2009

A message from the admin

Due to some issues we've been having merging V2 to V1 on TakeTheGlobe.com we will be reverting backwards to V1 and doing some more developing on V2 while V1 continues to run.
Over the next 30 days our goal is to wipe the current payout queue while V2 gets a proper re-development. We have an investment coming of over 200,000.00 USD to fascilitate this which in turn will allow us to launch V2 with a clean slate and expand V2 into the platform we've been wishing for.

There are many features that we'd like to refine further before re-attempting a V2 release.
We will reopen the main site on Friday, January 02, 2009, however the forums will remain down to control server loads from the influx of traffic we will recieve. With this new investment, there will be more features than originally planned in V2.
All current payout requests will be processed on or before January 30 / 2009.

We'd personally like to thank our hundreds of thousands of members, and millions of visitors for their patience and give them this good news for the new year coming.

Exciting stuff, all pending cashouts to be cleared by the end of Jan, and more investment in the site, I can't wait until V2 of TaketheGlobe, but I am looking forward to my payment.

PTC.ManyHandPrints officially launched

2009 is here and as promised PTC.ManyHandPrints has opened it's doors and wallets to the public. The admin was smart when he had a pre-launch for his site because it enabled him to gather revenue for his site which is to our benefit.

I was able to get referrals for the site, let's hope that they continue to click at one of the most exciting ptc sites to come around for some time.

Happy New Year Folks

Well it's 2009, looking back at 2008 was a mix of good and bad.

Many, many sites closed last year, most were ptc sites that paid for a few months then the admin realised he/she was well out of thier depth and closed the site down. There were the typical scam sites amongst them which put off alot of people clicking ads.

For the good sites there was TaketheGlobe, not only my first choice of a PTC Site but one which paid me over $700. 2009 looks bright for that PTC as well when it officially returns on Friday 02nd 2009

NeoBux, one of the first Instant Paying PTCs showed it's true colours by outlasting pretender Instant Paying PTCs, proving that the system does work when controlled properly.

Despite the bad sites outweighing the good get paid to click sites, my hope is that you have not given up and will continue to click ads. And that you continue to promote your links so you can get others to help you earn money.

I look forward to the upcoming year with great anticipation, no doubt there will be new sites appearing, let's hope that ptc admins have learnt from the mistakes of the past. So let's all have a great year earning some extra cash.
