The first thing that probably comes to mind when I say that etiquette is one of the most important things in our industry is “What the…?”

Firstly let me assure you that etiquette is indeed a vital attribute in the PTC world. Without it, the money making opportunities would be severely hindered.

What is PTC Etiquette?

There are several things that I classify as being related to PTC Etiquette. In short PTC Etiquette refers to how a member of the community should act in regards to the sites that they use, their downline and their upline.

PTC Etiquette includes:
• Clicking ads as often as possible
• Clicking at least 75% of the maximum ads available
• Being courteous to other members of the community, including PTC site owners
• Not spamming your referral links at every possible opportunity

Why is it so important?

The most important part of this etiquette is to click ads as often as you can (and as many as you can). Once you have over 100 referrals in your downline, you may think that it is OK for you o stop clicking yourself. I mean who cares?

Your contributions might not count for that much money in your total earnings. But you are a vital contributor to your upline’s income. You potentially earn on average $0.10 per site, per day for your clicks alone. But if you stop clicking, your upline stops making money. $0.10 per day becomes $36.50 per year, per site. If he referred you to 10 sites, they will never see the $365 per year you could have easily made.

Your upline may be counting on that money to survive. Many PTC users live in poorer nature and US dollars have a lot of value But they may never see the money if you have a selfish nature.

What happens when the people in your downline, your referrals, start thinking the same way? Quickly you stop making money and see the hard work that you put in become futile. That is the problem. If everyone stops clicking and relies on their referrals to make them money, then everyone suffers. The advertisers don’t get any views to their sites, the Paid to Click sites don’t get paid by the advertisers and therefore have no money to pay the members.

In short click the most amount of ads you can as often as you can.

Being courteous and not spamming people, is general common sense and is important in any internet community. I have seen it so many times before, a new member coming in and generally being an ass or speling lyk dis, and the whole community has banned, ignored or ridiculed them.

If you are serious about earning money you will need to be able to communicate to other people properly, make contacts and most importantly gain the respect of fellow members.

How do I ensure that people will use Etiquette?

The only way people will start clicking again after clicking is to educate them. Simply summarise what I have said here and tell them. Alternatively you could create a post on your own blog on PTC Etiquette or direct your readers to this page.
