Advertising on PTC-sites

There is so much bots and autoclickers in this industry, and even you find site which has good security systems and doesn’t sells bots theres no quarantee that you will get good traffic.Biggest problems in PTCs is lack of advertisers. The reason is simply, advertisers want quality and PTCs can’t provide it. That’s why real advertisers doesn’t use PTCs. Usually clickers just click, surf at internet and when 30 seconds is passed they simply leave your site.

Advertising products

If you are advertising products which aren’t related on money making online you made wrong decision. People who are clicking on PTCs are usually 15-years old kids and they haven’t money to buy your products. Actually, if they are clicking your ad to make money why they would be interested of spending money on your site? The only decision is advertise to premium members. Premium memberships costs from 20$ to 90$ so they have money to spend, but unless your site isn’t supporting AlertPay or even PayPal forget it.

Where to advertise?

Personally i prefer sites which uses aurora script. The script has good security features, and they charge around 2$ per 1000 visits. Specially, if you are advertising your referral link Aurora sites are for you! On of them (where i advertise) is Incentria.com. I’m getting good and quality traffic from there. I know from experience that the advertising advice in this post really works. Though I haven’t tried Incentria, I’ve used Clicksia and bought 1000/$2, which gave me 7 referrals on SandraClicks. 4 of them aren’t active at all but 3 of them are incredibly active. 3 referrals is not bad for $3. Permanent referrals, I might add.

What you should advertise on PTCs?

Well, if the clickers are in PTC to earn money, they are interested about it? So you should advertise GPT program, otherwise don’t exept to get succes storie from your advertising campaign. If you want that clickers buy your products you should accept AlertPay or PayPal and advertise to Premium members only.

Overall

You should not take PTC advertising seriously unless you want to improve your Alexa stats and Google search’s. You should only advertise Get-Paid-To products or your referral links. You can also improve Alexa rank with PTC’s, 20$ per 10 000 visits is cheap for it. If you are going to advertise products, think before you do it.

By the way, I ONLY invest in instant pay PTCs now because, in my opinion any PTC that doesn’t pay instantly or at least within 48 hours is a scam site. There’s just no reason to withhold peoples money for more than that.

Do not buy referrals from the PTC- site

I have decided to not buy referrals from the websites anymore. It’s just too risky and with little work you can get nice amount of referrals. Of course you need to have some money to advertise your referral link, but I’m sure that that you will spend 60% less for the same amount of referrals. If you don’t know how to get referrals, read my “Getting Referrals” article on “Tips & Tricks” category.

If you decide to buy referrals from Paid-to-Click site, at least use your credit/debit card! As far as I have understood, PayPal will refund your money if the site scams you. I’m not sure about AlertPay, but I assume that also they will do refund.

Advantages of self-referring? You will get higher activity % if the site doesn’t sell fake referrals like TakeTheGlobe. For example, when you advertise a website at your blog or at PTC-site, people can decide will they register or not. If they will, it means that they are interested about the site. This doesn’t guarantee active referral, but at least it’s way better than buying referrals directly from the website.

If the website is new it’s also good decision to buy referrals, but only if the site is new! If you buy referrals from a old site, most likely you will get some lazy and old clickers and the site will pay you so slow, that you will never get Return of Investment.

Paid-to-Click business is so risky, that most likely you will not be lucky enough to earn profit. Only people on the top of pyramid will actually earn money, so you need to be one of the first members to invest if you want to get any profit. Otherwise just click ads and refer your friends. One good advertising method is sign-up offer. You pay to PTC-site 0.2$ per referral and members of that site will join under you. They will earn money for that. You can force user to click x amount of ads in order to receive credit. In 5 days they may used to click, so there’s good chance that you will get active referrals.

So, stop spending your money on referrals, refer them yourself!

About PTC

What’s this “Paid to Click” programs?

As what the phrase says these are programs where advertisers pay you after clicking or viewing their advertisements for about 10-30 seconds. Every successful clicking or viewing = $0.01 credit to your account. Good PTC sites are probably the best way to make money on the internet and best of all they are legal and free to join. Paid to click is an easy way to make money online if you keep your advertising budget low. Here’s how it works in a nutshell: Advertisers need low cost advertising and they are willing to pay for the visitors.

What is a PTC site?

PTC programs are NOT a Autosurf, Multi-Level Marketing, Pyramid, Ponzi, Matrix or “Get Rich Quick” scheme.

PTC sites are new innovative, international and FREE English based services that allow advertisers to reach thousands of potential customers by displaying their ad on their “Surf Ads” page. An exact calculated percentage of all advertising revenue is paid to their members (that’s us!). PTC sites make money via advertising, other advertising sources throughout the website as well as earning through direct sponsorship of other members, just like a regular member does.

Is it free to join?

Absolutely yes! You don’t need to spend a single dime upon signing up or even if you are already earning. So there’s no reason not to join. No risk at all!

How do I earn?

You earn by just clicking and displaying the Ads for 20-50 seconds that can be found on your login page after signing up. 8+ advertisements are available to click on each PTC site everyday. You will earn much much more money if you refer the program to your other friends. You will also earn on every click they make so invite as many friends as you can after joining.

Below is an example of your potential earnings based on averages:

• You click 10 ads per day = $0.10
  
• 50 referrals click 10 ads per day = $5.00
  
• Your daily earnings = $5.10
  
• Your weekly earnings = $35.70
  
• Your monthly earnings = $153.00
  

Reminder: Click & display the ads one at a time or one after the other in order for your earnings to be credited to you.

How do I get my earnings?

If you have already reached the minimum payout, you can now cash it out via paypal or alertpay. These are account-managing systems in the internet and are currently known to be the safest. After cashing out, login to your alertpay account and click the ‘withdraw’ feature so that your money will be transferred to your debit card. After that, you can now withdraw your money through accredited atm machines.

If you don’t have alertpay account, just click items below & signup:

Biografi Carlo Ponzi

As the legend goes, the scheme that would make Carlo Ponzi a household name occurred to Carlo when he was a young man. Carlo would sit on his front steps in Boston and watch his neighbours return home from a day's work. It was during one of these daydreaming sessions that his innovation struck. Predictably enough, the first victim of what would become known as the Ponzi scheme was Carlo's friend Tony. Carlo made an intriguing offer: if Tony lent him $20, Carlo would return $30 in ninety days. "I'll meet you right here and pay you 50 percent on your money."

If only Tony had not taken Carlo up on his offer. Nevertheless, he did. Moreover, the next day, so did Carlo's friend Guiseppe. Therefore, ninety days later, true to his word, Carlo met with Tony and presented him with his $30. Perhaps like most of us, Tony let his worst half get the better of him and told Carlo, "What the hell, keep it and give me another 50 percent interest in ninety days." The Ponzi scheme was born. Guiseppe, the second-generation sucker, subsidized Tony, the first.

Before young Carlo Ponzi pioneered in financial chicanery, he had already lead an interesting--and criminal, to anyone who should have bothered to check--life. Immigrating from Italy at the age of 17, Carlo soon found an alternative to dishwashing and waiting on tables: he would assist his fellow Italian immigrants in sending money back to the home country. However, when it was discovered that Carlo was pocketing a generous portion of the funds, he was sentenced to three years in prison.

Perhaps illustrating the observation that government incarceration simply educates more criminals, instead of learning a lesson from his imprisonment, Carlo, once released, began plying his entrepreneurial skills smuggling Italian immigrants into the U.S. from Canada. Nabbed again, Carlo was off to prison for another three years. Setting his mind on going straight, Carlo then moved to Boston and found a job as a $16-aweek clerk. Soon thereafter he met and married Rose Guecco, seeing her as someone willing to take a two-time loser, and Rose had faith that her Carlo would one day rise to the $25-a-week pay bracket.

Now around this time, the "war to end all wars" was ending in Europe, and the boom of the roaring twenties was just beginning. Wages were rising and malinvestment was charging ahead, driving an emerging speculative investing craze. And Carlo knew he didn't like working for a living; watching his neighbours trudge home day after day from work as he sat on his Boston stoop only further convinced him that he needed a scheme to get ahead. He thought and thought on that stoop, and, as we know, Carlo came up with quite a scheme. With the success he experienced with Tony and Guiseppe, Carlo started Securities Exchange Company at 27 School Street in Boston the day after Christmas 1919. Advertising a 50-percent return in ninety days, money from investors large and small poured in. With all this money pouring in, Carlo had to figure out a plausible explanation for how he could pay 50percent interest in ninety days when no place in the world paid that much. However, Carlo's ingenuity for frauds came through again.

He told investors that he had a network of agents in Europe that purchased depreciated European currencies, converting the currencies into international postal coupons, which were then redeemed at face value in the United States in US dollars. Carlo claimed all the high rollers were doing it, the Rockefellers, J.P. Morgan Jr, everybody. But Saint Carlo instead was sharing the wealth and helping the common man (while helping himself of course). Redistributing their money was more like it.

Every day, tens of thousands of dollars were deposited with Carlo's tellers. Outside the building, crowds lined up, waiting to invest. Every day, Carlo would arrive at work in his chauffeur-driven limousine. The key to the entire scheme continued to work its magic, as the deposit counters were usually a swarm of activity, and the withdrawal counters were practically deserted. As the deposits grew and grew, Carlo even opened branch offices, eventually totalling thirty-five. He also used some of the deposits to purchase two actual businesses, Hanover Trust Co. and J.P. Poole Co. Carlo even found time in his busy schedule to buy his wife a mansion.

It was not long however, before Carlo's claims attracted attention from the wrong people. In a few short months, he had transformed himself from a mere clerk to a veritable financial wizard, he and Rose were swaddled in luxury, and anyone who wanted to cash in immediately received their deposit with interest, no questions asked. Carlo's success invited scrutiny. The U.S. Postal authorities advised the federal government that Carlo's given explanation for how the Securities Exchange Company conducted its "investments" could not possibly work. However, since the federal government operates on its own concept of time, it was not until months later that the feds conducted an official audit of Carlo's operation.

Moreover, as news of the audit hit the street, the whiff of insecurity began to work its magic, creating a run on the Securities Exchange Company. However, it seemed as though Carlo had an inexhaustible supply of cash: all of the investors who lined up to withdraw their deposit, each received their cash plus 50 percent. As the audit progressed, the auditors were stumped. The company kept meticulous records of all deposits and withdrawals. No one was being cheated, and no law had been broken. The only thing that they could not find was how the company made its fantastic profits. When asked, Carlo indignantly replied that that was a company secret.

The feds responded to this by placing a restraining order on the company, prohibiting it from accepting any further deposits while the investigation was proceeding. Carlo, glimpsing impending doom, hired the wellrespected William McMaster to handle public relations until the investigation blew over. This move did not turn out so well for our friend Carlo. Shortly after being hired, McMaster issued a statement to the press that the Securities Exchange Company had never conducted even a single foreign financial transaction.

Again, investors created a run on Carlo's company, and once again, Carlo appeared to weather the storm, even serving coffee and donuts to depositors as they waited. But eventually the toll of the investigation and revelations took their course, and more and more investors showed up to withdraw their money, until eventually the money ran out. On August 9, 1920, Carlo's bank issued a statement that it could no longer honour checks from the Securities Exchange Company. Two days later, Carlo's criminal record was released to the public.

Panic now gripped those investors who held back, and Carlo feared for his life. He asked for and received police protection. One by one, his assets were seized. First to go were Rose's mansion and their three luxury cars. Then Hanover Trust and J.P. Poole. As the investigation progressed, investigators discovered that Carlo at his height had 40,000 investors, and the total take was nearly $15 million, and this was back when hotdogs cost a nickel. On October 21, 1920, Carlo, now penniless, was sentenced to five years imprisonment for embezzlement. Released in 1924 and faced with further charges, he was once again imprisoned, this time for nine years. It was obvious to Carlo that his frauds had not worked out exactly as planned.

Out of jail again in 1934, Carlo was deported to Italy, where, sizing up a sucker if he ever saw one, he quickly offered his services to Mussolini. Once hired, Carlo dispelled any confidence in his claim to be any sort of financial wizard and was soon dismissed by Il Duce. Carlo next turned up with an Italian airline and was sent to Rio de Janeiro. Carlo had no sooner than arrived to take up his new duties when the airline abruptly folded. Stranded in Rio, Carlo Ponzi would end his days penniless, nearly blind, and partially paralysed. He died in a charity ward in Brazil in 1949.

As we all know, however, this would not be the end of the Ponzi scheme. Carlo Ponzi's spirit, if not his ghost, would live on under the tutelage of not the marketplace, but the state. Though Ponzi's great reputation as a financial wizard was tarnished and tattered, other men would come along to claim his mantle. Instead of falling into obscurity, the criminal scheme of a poor boy from Italy would be institutionalised as a system of deceit and privilege and thereby expanded into a racket the size and scope of which, with ingenious and elaborate rationalizations, not to mention decades-long duration, Carlo Ponzi surely couldn't have dared imagine.

The Social Security Act was ostensibly a fund to pay pensions, but it doubled as a hidden tax to fund a Treasury reserve fund for cloaking tax increases and higher government spending. Contributors to Social Security do not receive the returns from the money they paid into the "fund" in the past. Rather, just as in a Ponzi scheme, they are paid from the funds of current contributors (taxpayers), and these taxpayers will in turn be paid from the taxes paid by the generation that follows them. In other words, its purpose is the redistribution of income, not investment toward the production of new wealth.

The temptation to consume today what is due tomorrow is irresistible to politicians. Tax money is always spent. The essential deceits that lay behind Social Security are of course even more evident today. The socalled budget surpluses of the Clinton '90s exist solely as an accounting shell game in which surplus revenues generated from Social Security taxes are deposited with the U.S. Treasury and included as part of the general tax-revenue fund. In return, the Treasury then issues IOU's to the wildly misnamed Social Security Trust Fund. The IOU's are not included as liabilities in the federal debt, and are not included in the official U.S. budget.

A keen observer of FDR was John T. Flynn, who described Social Security's racketeering design. "The plan was to make the payroll tax big enough to pay the benefits, plus enough more to create a so-called reserve of $47 billion in 40 years. It was given the fraudulent name of Old-Age Reserve Fund. The Security Board would collect the taxes each year, use a small part of it to pay the pensions and put the rest in the "Fund." That is, it would lend it to the Treasury and the Treasury would then spend it for any purpose it had in mind. At the end of 40 years, Roosevelt was told, this money could be used to pay off the national debt."

This was sixty-five years ago, and of course, the deceit of Social Security allowed the accumulation of ever more debt, rather than the retirement of it, and the creation of an enormous "off-budget" slush fund. Carlo's scheme lasted less than a year, and was exposed by his own PR man. The government's Ponzi scheme has lasted through good times and bad, for more than half a century. This suggests that while Carlo Ponzi's brilliance lay in the creation of ingenious frauds, perhaps he should have plied his talents as a politician, where he would have been able to fleece his victims legally.

How to make some pocket money with the WorldWideWeb?

I think the easiest way is to use PTC's. PTC's are websites, that pay you for viewing adverts. This means that the owner of this site gets a certain amount of money for showing you this advertisement. When you register and view this adverts, you get a piece of that cake.

At most sites you’ll get paid 0.01$ when you view that advert. If you find other people that could also join this PTC, you invite them by using your ref link and make them your referrals. For every one of them that joins as your referral, you’ll get also a certain amount for every ad they view.

Now for example, if a PTC gets 2.5$ to advertise an ad to 100 people, than you would get 0.01$ for your view and 0.05$ if one of your referrals views it. So 100 people need to view this advert and they have to pay at most 0.015$ for one viewer (for his click and his referrer). The PTC gets 0.01$ for one viewer. So if they charge like 2.5$ for every 100 viewers that PTC is quite sustainable and you can be quiet sure they wont turn into scam.

PTC sites charging less money for advertising than they are paying to their members are unsustainable and cannot live forever. Unsustainable sites are scams. So if you want to join a legit PTC, you have to check how much they charge for showing ads and how much they pay for viewing them.

I’m going to present and review PTC's every now and then, propose to you other money making opportunities, which will make you moneymaking experience even more lucrative. if you like my presentation of the internet moneymaking oportunities, please remember my webpage and visit it on a regular base.

WHAT IS NEOBUX?

NeoBux is free worldwide service available in both English and Portuguese language. Our service consists on allowing advertisers to reach thousands of potential customers by displaying their advertisement in our site and users to earn money by viewing those advertisements. Our users click on the advertiser's ad and view it during the amount of time specified by the advertiser. After viewing the ad, the user gets credited with a pre-determined amount of cash on their NeoBux account. You don't need to pay us to start earning. So, register now and start earning money for free! HOW MUCH CAN I WIN? The amount of cash the user earns varies between the user's membership, the ad viewed and the number of referrals the user has. For example: If you have a Golden Membership, click 10 top ads a day and refer 150 members who also click 10 top ads a day: You win $30.2 (US dollars) per day that translates to around $936.2 (US dollars) per month. Now, try to multiply that for a year! With even more referrals (which can be rented or obtained freely) and more ads, we will leave it to your imagination. (This is just an example. Actual earnings can be different depending on the factors above) You don't need to pay us to start earning. So, register now and start earning money for free! HOW MUCH DO I GET PAID AND WHEN? The amount we pay you is divided between several factors. First let's describe the amount you win per click and for each of your referral's purchases depending on the type of membership you have: Pioneer and Standard Membership Per click: $0.010 (standard view) · $0.015 (extended view) Per referral click: $0.005 (standard view) · $0.010 (extended view) Golden Membership Per click: $0.010 (standard view) · $0.020 (extended view) Per referral click: $0.010 (standard view) · $0.020 (extended view) Minimum Payout: The minimum payout amount is set at $2.00 (two US dollars) for your first payout request, $3.00 (three US dollars) for the second, $4.00 (four US dollars) for the third and so on until $10.00 (ten US dollars). This means that when you reach or go beyond this limit, you can request your earned money. Amount of time for payment processing: After you request your payment, you'll receive it instantly upon request or in less than 48 hours if AlertPay services are down. WHAT IS A REFERRAL? A referral is someone who works for you. Sounds good? Keep on reading: A referral gets what every other user gets when they click ads: Money! But, if a user that clicks ads is your referral, you get money too! There are two types of referral and three ways of getting them: Direct referral: This user registered using your username as their referrer. Rented referral: You rented them. So, how do you get referrals? Here are the three ways you can do that: Use our banner: Show our banner online with a link to NeoBux with your username on that link (you can find the banners with the links in your account). When the visitor clicks that banner, he will be sent here. Then, all he has to do is register. We'll take care of the rest for you. Talk: Just tell everyone to register at NeoBux and to type your username on the referrer field when they do so. Rent: You can rent referrals to work for you (this is not slavery... they win too). Just go to your account to do so. The quantity of referrals available will vary depending on how much users registered without a referrer. You'll only get referrals that have clicked at least 10 advertisements in the past 5 days. The renting price for each referral per month is: Standard member: $0.30 Pioneer member: $0.25 Golden member: $0.20 Pay daily using AutoPay: You can activate AutoPay to extend your referrals next payment date. On the first click each referral makes per day, you'll pay to keep him/her for an extra day. This is the fastest, easiest and cheapest way to keep your referrals. Also, you'll save 10%. Recycle your referrals: You can recycle each referral any time you want to. Is your referral inactive or just clicks a few advertisements per day? No problem! For just $0.08 you can replace him with a new active referral. So, what are you waiting for? I BOUGHT SOMETHING. I WANT IT NOW! Yes, we know. That is why our delivery service is fast and professional. When you buy something at NeoBux, you will receive it as soon as the payment is approved. Even when loading a bus with referrals, it will only take a short time for them to arrive at your door. CAN SOMEONE CLICK FOR ME? Yes, we allow any living creature to click for you. So, if you have a dog, you can start training it (we would love to see the video)! If you think that a program that automatically clicks is a living creature, then your mental state is somewhat strange. If you use that type of programs: You'll be treated as a hacker. You'll get banned. We can't be friends. CAN EVERYONE IN MY HOUSEHOLD JOIN? Yes, everyone in your household can join NeoBux (even you mother-in-law)! There is a catch, though... Only one user per IP is allowed in 24 hours. This means, that if everyone in your house logins in the same day, only the first one can earn by clicking the advertisements. To allow another user to click advertisements, he or she will have to wait 24 hours. But everyone can login to check their account or post at the forums, for example. So, in short, to click advertisements and get paid, only one user per IP in 24 hours. Don't do that at school, work or by using some kind of Proxy or VPN because usually the IP is the same for every Internet user. I AM A HACKER! That's nice! Seriously, we love hackers. That is why we also thought of you! Hackers will have a special attention from our system. Just for you, we have implemented one of the strongest anti-cheat protection in the industry so that you can work harder in cheating. You will be warned when you try to cheat but we also have many other surprises because we know how much you love surprises. In certain cases you won't be warned! As we love hackers so much, we will even update your account balance because we know what success means to you. If our system finds out you are a hacker it will fight back. Don't worry, there is no violence involved... you will just be banned when you request your payment. How do we know you are hacker: You try to develop or use something that click ads for you. You try to view advertisements you're not supposed to. You are ugly! If you get banned, it's because our system got upset with you so, it won't accept communications coming from you. Our system doesn't accept apologies. If you're banned, you will lose all the money in your account! (It's our way of saying: We told you so!) You have been warned! I WANT TO ADVERTISE! WHAT DO YOU OFFER ME? As an advertiser you will get what you pay for. We are different because we care about our advertisers. This is what we offer you: Advertisement Management You only need to submit you advertisements once. You can pause, resume or delete them any time you want. You may set a demographic filter or show to all members. You can buy clicks and distribute them by your advertisements. You access detailed statistics during and after your advertisement display. Click Packs Management You buy how many clicks you need. You decide how many clicks go to each advertisement. If you decide to delete an advertisement that still has clicks left, no problem... you will get those clicks back in your account to use in another advertisement. Demographic exposure Choose to show your advertisement to the world or just a few countries. Toggle the filter on and off and choose different countries for each advertisement. Anti-Cheat Protection Your advertisements will be shielded by a strong anti-cheat protection. Clicks from hackers will never be accounted (but we may tell them they are). It was never so easy and secure to advertise and manage your advertisements.

extra tip to avoid scam sites.

If you ever stumble upon a bux site, go look at their site stats (which should be on the left side of many bux sites)
and check the users online stat:
if there are just normal numbers next to the users online stat then there is a chance that it might be a scam site

eg: super-bux.net (its gone now) i signed up on it, the-bux.com (is online now and many say its a scam site)
note: the sites above are just some i have either signed up on or visited.

ps: this is from my personal experience as all the buxsites that i signed up on had this feature and eventually they dont exist anymore (the sites went offline)

if you think there are any exceptions to my tip go ahead and reply.

one more thingy: nothing beats a simple google search for a site you suspect being a scam. or just go to PTCtalk right here

thanks for reading. Read more!

Advice for people on a slow connection

If you just like me sit on a very slow connection here are a few simple tips to speed up your clicking.

These few simple steps only apply if you use Firefox.

1. Go to TOOLS in the menu bar. In the drop down menu pick options. In options remove the tick in "load images automatically". This will prevent all pictures from loading which makes everything go a lot smoother.
2. On some pages when you login you need to enter a security code. You will not be able to see this when Firefox is setup to not load images. Therefore go to the menu again, click options, then click exceptions to the right of "load images automatically". A new window will open up and you will now be able to copy/paste the sites login page address into the box that says "Address of website". After you have done that click the button that says Allow. Reload the page and the image/security code is visible. An alternative would be to save your login and password when you login the first time. But I know that some people do not like doing so for some reason.
3. Download an Add-on for Firefox called Flash Block. This will prevent flash from loading as well which really decreases loading time of the page.
4. Sometimes the counter will not start even though the page is fully loaded on my connection so to get around that I just press the "Stop loading this page" button(BIG RED X) and the counter will appear. Easy as...
   Hope this will be useful to you guys out there that like me sit on a crappy connection. Trust me.....the internet here in Indonesian sucks so had to come up with something. :)

The following tips are designed with you in mind to help creating the website traffic that is so essential to sales and profits online. Advertising is the key to internet marketing and search engine traffic will be the backbone or the main source for that continuous flow.

Yahoo/Overture and Google Adwords are excellent paid advertising to build traffic. It is unlikely that you will get the required website traffic without utilizing some of these paid advertising services, Overture and Yahoo, being so popular, it is futile not to avail yourself of their services.

Search engine advertising has brought real success to thousands of online businesses, why not yours? PPC or (Pay Per Click) is the term given to this way of advertising. With proper keyword selection related to your products or services this advertising method could be just what you need.

Another traffic building tool is to exchange website links with other businesses, this is called reciprocal linking and both parties normally benefit from this exchange of links related in some way to the business. When sites link to each other, they both share in the traffic generated by the efforts of each other. The more reciprocal links exchanged the more traffic that could be generated.

Viral Marketing:

This is a free or inexpensive way to spread the word on the internet about your company, business, product or service. This could be perceived as a sneaky way to advertise, by attaching your company name, product or link to certain media such as a funny video, entertaining games, interesting articles or gossip. People who are attracted to this kind of creative entertainment will pass it on to friends, relatives and acquaintances thus spreading the word wide and far.

Optimizing your website content for high ranking

Search engines rank your site based on well placed keywords and keyword phrases in your site content. Therefore the content on your site should be well optimized to take advantage of this requirement to rank high in search engine results. So, be warned when you write the content for your site.

Write and publish Articles about your business.

Submit your articles to article directories and publishers since they will have a large circulation of sites that will read and distribute the articles, giving you the exposure needed to generate much traffic. Write about special features of your business, product or service. Also include a resource box with your sites description and services plus a link to your website at the end of the article.

Become members of forums and online communities:
As members of these communities, you can write and post helpful articles along with a signature file with links to your business. This builds your credibility online, while creating much needed one way links to your site. This could boost your website ranking and traffic substantially.

Finally, publish a newsletter, as a credible and trusted net marketer, your readers will share this with many others thus creating loyal repeat visitors to your site and you will be able to market to this list forever. This list of traffic building tools is by no means final, with some imagination and creativity more ways can be found to add to these marketing strategies on and off line.

The Earning Guide

The Basics

The Basic Necessities

· Use a valid email address - You will always want to have a valid email address to use when you sign up to a Pay To site. This is so that the website can contact you with inquiries about your account if needed. Also, some PTC sites require a valid email in order for your payments to be accepted. Another thing you will need your email address for is your payment processing site. For example, on AlertPay you will need a valid email address in order to sign up for an account.

· A AlertPay account - Most Pay To sites use AlertPay as their preferred payment method. This is because it is the easiest of the payment processors to use in many peoples' opinion.

Getting Started

· Do Your Homework - It is always good to know at least a little bit about a \"Pay To\" site before you join it. Usually, knowing about a site, and it's owners and staff, can help you determine whether you want to join it, or stay away for fear of it being a scam. If you know a bit about the owner, you can usually make a good judgement on whether or not its going to turn to a scam. Also, a lot of scammers start more than one site, so, see if the owner of the site you are joining owns any other site, and see if they are in good standing. If they are scams, chances are that site is as well.

· Read The Terms of Service - You will need to know at least a little bit about the Terms of Service each site provides for their members. Always skim over this and check for irregularities and rules that you might not know about so that you dont accidentally break them without knowing.

How to not get scammed

Here are a few simple things to prevent getting scammed.
Follow them closely, they are very accurate and will help you in the long run.

1. Don't Join Non-Customized Sites

When finding a new site, look at the layout, is it good, or bad?
This may not seem like a key factor, but it most definately is.
If the layout is very bad(visually), they probably didn't put much time into it.
This means they either can't design, or just don't care.
Also if they are running the same old "bux" layout with a new banner, keep away.
You want to find a site that is custom and in it for the long haul.
If they were in it for the long haul they would make their site unique.

2. Don't Join Sites Of Past Scammers

If the site owner is known to of scammed in the past, don't join.
The site owner may have an excuse or decided to "change his ways", but don't buy it.
If they have scammed once, they will scam again, don't take the risk, ever.

3. Don't Purchase Anything <-- Important!

If you find a new site that seems to look okay and your considering purchasing something, don't.
If the site is brand new with no real userbase or even payment proofs, don't join.
Even if you hear people sing praises about getting payments, don't.
Most scam sites pay out tons and tons quickly right away, then it just stops.
Let the site be online for at least 1.5-2 months before purchasing to be safe.

4. Don't Use Sites Without Support/Forums

If the site doesn't have a good support system or forums where an admin is active, don't use it.
This is the key way users and admins speak to each other and if it doesn't exist, they don't care.
You should be able to get in contact with the owner within 48 hours at any time.

Hope this helps those looking to invest/join in sites.
If you follow these rules religiously you will never be scammed, ever.

Gaining Referrals

Your part of a PTC and your trying to get people to join using your ref link, sounds easy enough but you realise eventually that there are many other people in the same situation trying to get people to join via their ref links also, so how do you get an edge above the rest? Follow some of these tips and your sure to have some more ref's in no time.

Blogs/Websites

With this, all you do is create a website or blog and post your referral links on there, give a description of each site and then advertise your blog or website anywhere you can from your myspace, online forums etc... to attract visitors.
