ARE YOU WILLING TO EARN MONEY WHILE SURFING THE INTERNET?


Welcome to the site dedicated to Paid To Click (full name: get paid to click on ads).


Here you can find explanation about this online industry as well as links to most profitable Paid To Click sites. As a testing ground and a real link exchange - this site. At least you may find something interesting or learn new things.


For all the skeptics - money received so far.


Make money online - nothing easier than that!

All you need is just a litle free time and some patience. "Little" is a relative term depending on your addiction and/or dedication.
You've probably heard that some sites pay their users for viewing advertisements or reading e-mails.
Probably most of the internet users consider this a joke or exaggeration and underestimate the earning potential.
No, it's not a joke. Those sites are known as Paid To Click.
Do not think you'd become a millionaire overnight. If any site promisses that - it's a shameless lie. Averaging 1 ¢ for 30 seconds view, do the math yourself how long it would take to become a millionaire in a matter of time and efforts. Earning is slow unless you are willing to invest after risk assessment.

Here's an explanation how the things work:

- this type of internet advertising is known as "direct" or "targeted advertising" with the main purpose to be seen by specific audience and exact number of viewers for specific price.
Here comes the difference from TV and radio advertising, where nobody could predict the audience number and therefore the price depends just on the advertisement's length, hours of emission and media popularity.

- there were such PTC sites several years ago but their owners had decided to get rich quick which the users didn't like and the campain failed.

- the fast growing internet business structure quickly fills any empty niche so recently there appeared new PTC sites that have learned their predecessors' lesson and give the users better share from advertisers' money.

Most profitable sites you can find here. There are many sites alike but they either offer fewer ads or smaller price per click which means slower earning or they are just scam.
You can view the ads one after another from the list of available ones on Surf Ads/View Ads page. Opening more than one at a time is not allowed and you wouldn't get paid for any unless you see the checkmark or any other positive sign (the red X is not one). Actually, you don't have to stare at the advertisement to watch or read - the advertiser should care about the apeal, you just have to wait for the timer to count down and watching/reading other sites meanwhile.

What do you need to start?

First - an account for online payments where you will receive your earnings or pay the purchases from. Probably the most secure online payment processor is PayPal.
After the hard time PayPal gave the PTC sites in January by blocking their accounts because of the large amount of transfers and numerous disputes most of the sites accepted some alternatives:
AlertPay - as functional as PayPal, works almost worldwide since March, needs Identity verification by photo document and Address verification by utility bill. Every payment must be confirmed by PIN. If you do not intend to invest large amounts of money in order to receive larger earnings it's recommended to create Personal Starter accounts - no fees for receiving money but monthly and yearly limits. It's possible to upgrade to Business account at any time as well.
MoneyBookers, rarely used, similar procedures to PayPal's account confirmation with bulk transfer with verification code.

Second - registration as a member. Membership could usually be 2 types - standard/free and premium. The difference is the price per click (yours and referrals') and/or number of ads.

And finally - patience, creativity and optimism. The maesly 20-30 ¢ in the beginning could be increased to $2-3 with a small investment. After returning of investment you may consider reinvesting and multiplying the profit.

Optimistic prognosis - a $100 returns in 15 days and you start earning $200 monthly afterward. Investment means to purchase a number of referrals and a premium membership. Another opportunity is to refer people - they register from your referral link and you profit from their clicks. Bigger the number, better the profit. Here comes the creativity - build a site (like this one) or blog with your links, make it popular, easy readable and people will catch up with you. The referral doesn't lose anything in referrers favour, the profit is mutual - referrer just receives a comission for bringing new users to the site. In case of signing up without referrer the user remains unreferred and usually is being sold to someone willing to invest.

If you don't have the patience to click every day you'd better don't start. Some sites purge the inactive users from the data base. Read the Terms Of Service carefully and don't even think to cheat, you'd probably be caught and get deleted/banned from the site. Pay attention to limitations such as number of users per IP address, some site allow more than one under certain conditions but most don't. In most cases is valid: one account, one IP address, one e-mail address unless other stated in TOS. Do not rush headlong to any newly discovered site as most of them are scams and their purpose is to steal login details (usually same for most sites) or take some "investor's" money and suddenly disappear. Use different username/password for such sites and think well before investing.
