TaketheGlobe has a rough road ahead

TTG has long been closed down, I thought I'd keep this here as a reference

TTG or TaketheGlobe has been a real good PTC for me, this is a fact. The stand out feature of the site isn't just the earnings but it is run by an admin whom has kept all it's members informed of the progress and the problems that it has been happening.

The test of a person is what they do when problems arise, those whom quit will continue to do this in thier life, whereas those that ride the rough waves and come out the other side are labelled as heroes.

Last year, Bryan and his family went through a massive wave which almost cost him something more than his PTC site, that is, the life of himself and his family. When he finally got back from a doomed trip he had found a member had ripped him off at TTG when they reversed $6,000 of advertising.

To compound matters, V2 of TTG ran into problems when he hired PHP Coders which didn't have it in them to do the job properly. So the expense of hiring them ate into profits, and now he has to hire even more coders to fix up a mess which was not his doing.

For a short time, there was hope when he thought he had a major investor, only for the bad news that they decided to bail out at the last moment and so talks are in session with other potential investors.

More information has been revealed regarding V2 of TTG, such as Instant CashOuts for Upgraded Members and Rented Referrals. I guess what I'm waiting for is the release of V2 because it is a signal that all things are heading in the right direction.

Income from the features V2 has will provide a massive amount of income for Bryan because he will be introducing income streams which have proven to be successful at other Get paid To Sites. It will definitely bring financial stability to the site and that's the real key of TaketheGlobe.

The admin is looking for a long term solution, he's not going to forget Free Members which is something I hate about other PTC sites which have been put in the same boat. I am more keen to see the release of V2, but for now, waves are getting higher, so grab your board and let's surf those puppies.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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
