Paid To Click: Scam or not?
Paid to click sites really do work, but only if they are run correctly and there are more bad sites than good ones. This page ponders the different types of ptc sites, their strengths and weaknesses and what you can do to make the most money with ptc sites.It is not an exact science and even when you know what you are doing you dont always make money, but all in all there is still money to be made in these paid to click sites.I will list the highest paying ptc sites from time to time, but you'll find the lower paying ones can be the best ptc sites. Stick around and I'll explain more about ptc sites.
How Paid To Click Works
Good PTC sites are probably the simplest money-making sites on the net and they are free to join. Here's how it works: Advertisers need low cost advertising and they will pay for the visitors.Advertisers pay the PTC site for traffic to their sites.free members get paid to visit those sites on the PTC surf page.OK now I need to tell you somthing very important:If there is only one thing you take from this, it is don't spend money in ptc sites unless you can afford to lose it. Many PTC sites disappear every day without warning or refunds so watch yourself. This doesn't mean you should never upgrade, but you need to learn before you go spending too much. And even when you are well informed you are never totally safe from scam artists who run their ptc in a dishonest way. With so many scam ptc sites how can I pick a honest site?
Here are a few guidlines to go by
Another dead givaway is when the PTC site claims to pay 1 cent per click minimum. Better forget these too because thier advertising prices are way too high and therefor they have no real advertisers, just their own ads. PTC sites that say "up to 1 cent per click" are often legitimate though.
Plain default site design that looks like an amature did it. If it looks cheaply done, then it is very likely someones first attemp at running a website and the PTC industry is no place for beginners.
Go by these three basic rules and do a Google search of the PTC name to see what people are saying before you upgrade.
High Paying PTC Sites
Why you should avoid them like the plauge
My advice is stick to the sites that pay lower because these are the real sites that are not ponzi.
How do I promote my PTC link?
Another good traffic exchange is called best free traffic. Also, you can use a free service called GetRef.com or another called marketingpond.com. You can start a free blog. And by far the best thing to do is create a free Squidoo page like the one you are reading from and then write yourself an article that tells all about your Squidoo page (include your link) and submit that article to isnare.com. Isnare will then redistribute your article to thousands other article websites. This will give you plenty of good backlinks that point to your Squidoo page and that will cause your page to rank higher in Google. Or you could advertise in other paid to click programs.
Also you might try Traffic-co-op.com.
You can also advertise in Herculist. They are one of the best safelists.
My Most Trusted PTC Sites
these are the only sites I trust right now.
A ptc site that pays right away, Linkgrand pays 30% of ALL referral income. In other words, if your referrals buy advertising you also get 30% of that sale. Most other sites do not do this and I have made more money at Linkgrand than I have at any other site. Linkgrand is the best ptc site that I know of. Very reliable and the owner is very helpful if you ever have any problems.
A well balanced PTC business model at .007 per click (just under 3/4 of a cent per click). They have added an interesting twist, they also have a matrix integrated into this where you make a $2.00 bonus per $12 upgrade you generate PLUS earn on twelve levels in ADDITION to that! I've been upgraded for some time and have had a good experience at BuxMatrix.
Another ptc site that pays right away, ClickSense Paid To Click:One of the best ptc sites that has been very successful online for a long time. Very good customer support, admin has good reputation. This site always has more 1 cent ads to click than any other PTC that I know of. This site has paid me countless times and always with no long waiting period.
The Clickers seems to be developing a good reputation. It features a $5 minimum payout and a maximum wait of 14 days for cashout.
Clix-n-cash is a great example of a well run sustainable site that you can count on. Great site if all you do is click and a great place for advertising too.
