This is what you can make with a little bit of effort. However before you learn how to make this kind of cash I would like you to take a moment and contemplate how more money would have a positive effect affect on your life.


Now that you personally know what affects this sort of money will have on your life you can begin to learn.


What is a Paid to Click site?


A Paid to Click site (PTC), is a site which advertisers use to market their websites, products and services. Members (like you and me) register on the site and view the ads. For each ad you view you are paid a certain amount. The current standard is $0.01 (keep reading to learn how to make much more) and you will need to view each ad for 30 seconds.


After you have accumulated enough money (the minimum payout outlined by each site), you are able to request payment and have the money transferred into your payment processor (PayPal or Alertpay)


How Does a Paid to Click site work?


Advertisers pay PTC sites to list their advertisements and have them viewed. The PTC sites then use the money they make from the advertisers to pay the registered members who click on the ads. The transfer of money is simplified below.



Advertiser > PTC site > Members



From this process we can see that PTC sites are real businesses and provide a service for the advertising companies. Each site adds between 5 and 20 ads every day.


How much money can I make?


As you saw above you will be able to make a significant amount of money. The amount you make per day depends on several key factors such as:


  • The number of referrals you have
  • The amount you make for viewing each ad
  • The number of ads

Note: A referral is someone who you have referred to the site and has signed up under you. They will be your main source of income. For each ad, each referral views you will make money (usually 50-100% of what the ad is worth).

Here is an example of how money is made. The number of referrals is represented by r, the amount you make for viewing each ad is represented by a, n represents the number of ads and t is the number of days.


Money made = r*a*n*t

This example will use, r= 113, a = $0.01, n = 10 and t = 31 (a month)

Money made = 113 * $0.01 * 10 * 31

Money made = $11.3 * 31 days


Money made in a month is $350.30


The table shows how much can be made with 10ads and $0.01 per ad.

This is a very simplified version, but with enough hard work they are very achievable. If you have 100 active referrals for each site in my top 5 you would earn $50 a day.


The key, thing is to remember if you refer one person to two different sites, they are counted as different referrals. Therefore if you refer 100 people to 10 sites you would have 1000 referrals.

The possibilities are endless.


How do I Start?


There are 5 simple steps to start making money. These are:


1. Learn about Paid to Click Sites

2. Sign up to a Payment Processor

3. Register on PTC sites

4. Get Referrals

5. Get Paid


You are already well on your way to completing step number 1.


2. Signing up to a Payment Processor


I suggest that you create an email (gmail or hotmail are good) just for PTC sites. This is so that you can keep your PTC related emails in the one place.

Once you have done this you will need to sign up to a Payment Processor such as AlertPay and Paypal. I highly recommend using both as Alertpay is the most common on PTC sites and Paypal is more widely used.


To join AlertPay or Paypal simply click on the links provided below and follow the instructions. It is vital that you use correct information when signing up. After you have created an account you are ready to start making money.

3. Registering on PTC sites


The most important thing about this process is picking the right sites to register with. The best places to start are the ones highlighted on the Top 5 page. These sites have been chosen by me, to provide you a list of sites that I feel are best suited to people new to the PTC concept.


The sites on the list are the ones which I feel will provide you the best opportunity to make money and they are all highly reputable.


Things to consider when joining include:


  • Amount you are paid per ad
  • Amount you make for every referral’s click
  • Minimum payout
  • Payment time
  • Support (is there a forum?)
  • Cost to upgrade to premium membership
  • Reputation

Research each site (that I haven’t listed) and make sure there is proof of people getting paid.


Keep track of which sites you join using Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, pen and paper or any other method you want. This is definitely recommended if you are going to join lots of sites


Also I strongly advise that you have a different password for PTC sites and AlertPay and Paypal. This way your earnings are more secure.


The best method is to have between 5 and 10 sites and concentrate on consistently clicking the ads and gaining referrals for your chosen these sites. However, other people believe that is better to be registered on up to 50 sites. If you want more sites I have provided the ones that I think are the best in the Best of the Rest page.


4. Getting Referrals


Referrals are the lifeblood of your earnings. Without referrals there is no point in clicking ads. There are many ways to refer people.


Buying Referrals


All PTC sites offer members a chance to “purchase” referrals. When you buy 15 referrals, the next 15 people to sign up without a referrer become my referrals.


Personally I do not like this option as it is quite risky investing your money, especially for beginners. I personally find other methods to be much better.


Create a blog


This will be the central part of your plan to gain referrals. Your blog does not need to be fancy at all. The main purpose of your blog will be to place all your referral links in the one place. This is so that instead of referring people to individual sites you can simply direct them to your blog and they can follow all the links from their. For simple blogs you will only need to use blogspot.


Once you have created your blog, place all your referral links in a post and post a description of each site highlighting the features. After this you are ready to get traffic to your blog.


Where to post your blog link


Online Forums.


As a member of an online forum you can place your blog link or referral links in your signature. You can also use your avatar to inform people of your site. The best thing to do is to create a thread in the appropriate section and use it to create an informative post about PTC and place a link to your blog at the end. Be creative but always remember to use etiquette, proper grammar and spelling and obey the rules of the forum.


There are several forums dedicated to PTC sites and these provide you with an opportunity to advertise your blog as well as use site specific devices to trade referral links. A list of these can be found on the links page.


Social Networking Sites


Social networking sites such as Myspace provide the tools for you to post and inform other people of PTC sites and to post your blog link. I have used this to great success. Use comments and bulletins to let others know about your blog.


Email


You can email the people you know. However be aware that if you spam people and the sites you use find out your account will be terminated. Therefore it is best to just email people you know who will be interested in this kind of thing.


Real people


Just talk to people you know and meet in real life. Most people would love to make more money, and will be grateful if you can help them meet their goals.


Chat rooms


Visit internet chat rooms and talk to people, but always be polite and remember not to break any rules. Don’t simply spam your blog link in the chat room as that will get you nowhere.



Advertising in the real world.


This is an interesting one that I was introduced to by Shane3x’s blog (find it in the links section). Simply create flyers, with a small explanation of PTC sites and a link to your blog site. Once this is done distribute them amongst your neighbourhood. If you are ambitious you could even get your local newspaper to deliver them alongside the catalogues.


PTC sites.


Use the money you have made to get advertising space on PTC sites. Preferably use popular sites or new sites and get the traffic going to your blog. This will increase your traffic substantially and hopefully you will get many new referrals because of it.


Other ideas


Include making videos to post on video sharing sites, joining traffic exchange programs and getting linked to by other blogs and websites. You can also investigate into SEO (Search Engine Optimization) to try and have your blog ranked high on Google or Yahoo.


5. Getting Paid


Finally we can talk about the final and most satisfying step getting paid. It is pretty simple, request your payment and within the time specified you will receive your money into your Alertpay or PayPal account.



Lastly you must click ads as often as possible. You have an obligation to your upline (the person who referred you). This topic is further discussed in PTC Etiquette. But in short if everyone is going to make money, EVERYONE needs to click on the ads for each site they are an active member.
