WorldWide-Cash Ad Problem!

WorldWide-Cash.net

Worldwide-Cash ads have a problem at the moment. Right now the website is crediting many more hits than my PTP links are actually recieving. Over the course of a 1500 click ad I may only recieve at most 1000 clicks. This is before even counting invalids although only maybe 1-3% of the clicks come invalid. I just wanted people to be aware of the problem and I have notified the admin. When it is fixed or explains I'll let people know!

DonkeyMails Payout Recieved!

DonkeyMails.com: No Minimum Payout

I recieved payout from Donkeymails on Friday the 26th of June. It was right when the site said payouts would be done. Donkeymails does payouts about twice a month or so and they have a LOT of people they pay. I was 950 in line when I placed my request and the cashout option must have been open for another 5 days before they got ready to pay people out. They are definitely one of the most reputable when it comes paying large numbers of people.

Anyway I recieved about 12 dollars or so. Good luck getting your payouts from them just be patient!

Aquamails (PTC/PTP) Review

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


Aquamails is a site I would describe as mostly average. I guess I would say it's the industry standard. It's got a weak PTP, a decent amount of ads to click but not a lot, and not many incentives to click. However despite being quite average it does have great ads to purchase! They are currently running a special deal that gives you quite a lot of clicks for a little bit of money. Speaking about PTP, Aquamails has a PTP I wouldn't recommend doing unless you are sure you got good ads that target high and were cheap. Their Tier1 is only the US, their Tier 2 is the other countries that are normally in Tier 1 like Canada, and their Tier 3 is like other places Tier 2. The Tier 4 at their website is all the other websites and you only get 1 credit per 1000 clicks. It's definitely not worth doing this PTP. Other than that though it's a great place to ad if you are looking to click more ads and buy more ads.

Conclusion: Aquamails is a mostly average website except for its ads which are very decently priced. More websites should take pricing schemes that help people make a profit in PTP, like this one. Definitely don't try the PTP though unless you realize you'll be getting around .5-.4 credits per thousand when targeting Tier/Tier2. Join this one to ad more profit if you can handle your other sites.

Paying Cash (PTC/PTP) Review

PayingCash.net

Paying Cash is a great website for clicking ads for points and buying them to promote your PTP. There are LOTS of ads here. I have found at least 700-1000 ads to click a day. This is definitely a website you want to use for clicking. However when it comes to buying ads with cash you should still stick to Worldwide-Cash. You'll find that both these websites have almost the exact same setup except Worldwide-Cash has cheaper ads to buy. Paying Cash still has it's PTP going though. It's at .90 CPM which is definitely worth it. However for now their Payout is closed so I wouldn't use their PTP until it opens again.

Conclusion: Paying Cash is a great website if you want to exchange your clicks for ads. However if you want to buy ads you still need to stick with Worldwide-Cash.

ButterflyMails (PTC) Review

ButterflyMails

So continuing the good note I am going to review ButterflyMails.

ButterflyMails is a website that focuses on PTC ads. The ad has PTCs sent through email and on the website. They offer lots of these to click. They also offer great PTP advertising. You can buy ads quite cheap and they target Tier1/Tier2. They accept lots of payment processors but only pay out to Paypal and Alertpay(They have E-gold but no one uses it and I do not suggest using E-Gold ever). There's not much other than clicking here and the upgrades aren't worth it at all so I don't suggest even bothering to look at them.

Conclusion: It's pretty much just a site to click PTP ads and buy them. Buy them here because they are cheap and worth it!

ValePTR (PTC/PTP) Review

ValePTR.com

I feel like the last few reviews have been kinda on the downside. I decided today to review one of sites I actually like.

ValePTR is a great program all around. The ads are easy to click and there are LOTS of them. They range from point to cash and all are worth clicking here. If you are looking to buy ads for your PTP I suggest clicking their point ads as there are a lot of them and you can easily earn 1 ad every 3 days if you try. The ads to purchase for cash are also worth it. They are definitely a lot cheaper than some other websites but most importantly the offer ads that target Tier1/Tier2 countries (the highest earners). This is very important thing I look for in any program. While I haven't cashed out with this program they offer Liberty Reserve and I have talked to the admin a few times so I know the admin will be prompt in cashing out. Also there is no cashout fee which is important since many places have a 10% fee. The PTP of this program is upgrade to join. However the upgrade to join is quite cheap so once you've bought ads and used them for other PTPs you can use that profit to upgrade and start using the PTP here as well. It is definitely worth it.

Conclusion: ValePTR is a great program. Although it's PTP is upgrade to join the upgrade is cheap. The ads are also reasonable, target well, and if you are looking to click there is a lot to click on to earn that way as well.

World Wide Cash (Update)

WorldWide-Cash.net

Ya so this is the first Update post I've made to here. Just to clarify they are simply updates of my own personal experience with the website.

I requested cashout from Worldwide cash on Thursday and got my cashout today on Saturday. They do promptly payout on weekends. They sent me the requested amount of $3.39. There was a fee of course before this but I can't remember what it was but it was 10%. More news to come!

World Wide Cash (PTC) Review

WorldWide-Cash.net

World Wide Cash is an example of a PTC/PTP that has fallen from greatness into ruin. It started off an extremely popular website with lots of members and is now down to a PTC website with a bad PTP (points only and definitely not worth it) and bad ad options. All in all World Wide Cash was great when it's PTP was working. It was similar to Donkeymails in that it's PTC wasn't so great and either was it's ads but they still weren't bad either. It's PTC is still almost an even exchange meaning for every ad you click you will be able to buy an ad in their redemption section. Paying direct cash was risky and not worth it however. Also despite their many advertisements of no minimum payout those days are over and now there is actually a minimum.

Conclusion: There isn't much to say about World Wide Cash other than if you need some extra ads and don't want to pay for them this is where you start. Their PTC section is reason and gives you 1 point per ad. An ad package of 1500 clicks costs 1550 points so that's pretty reasonable. Other than that there is nothing left for this site until it's PTP section comes back up.

Donkey Mails (PTC/PTP) Review

DonkeyMails.com: No Minimum Payout

Well the first review is here and I figured I'd start it off with one of the biggest PTC/PTPs there is. Donkey Mails by far is the largest and most popular PTC/PTP online. I'm not sure what has allowed them to stay one of the biggest PTR/PTP sites but they are definitely the first PTC/PTP you want to think of when looking to get into this game. Why? They have a reliable payout and they use Liberty Reserve. It's important to find programs using Liberty Reserve as when you are looking to buy ads the cheapest price you will find is through Liberty Reserve.

I wouldn't use Donkey Mails for everything however. Donkey Mails is simply the most popular website but it really own shines in one area. It's PTP is one of the best PTPs you can join for free that will cash out to Liberty Reserve. Many websites require you to upgrade to join their PTP program but Donkey Mails it's free. It's PTP at .75 per 1000 credits for free! This is the only part of the website I recommend using. Otherwise you will want to use other websites to buy ads. Their clicking section isn't bad though although a lot of websites have better ones. As for their upgrades I would definitely not recommend upgrading to any of their upgrades unless you have a lot of extra cash to spare. They aren't worth it unless you want referrals. I also don't recommend using it for purchasing ads as they are quite overpriced for PTP.

Conclusion: Donkey Mails, while one of the most popular PTC/PTRs is certainly not the best. However I will have to highly recommend their PTP program as it is one of the best out there.

Reviews of Websites

I'm going to start posting reviews of websites that have to do with PTR/PTC and PTP. I'm going to start with these since they are the most basic and safest ways to make money before going over HYIPs and how they work since they are mostly luck anyway.

Reviews will go over certain aspects of the website and give ratings out of 5 stars. Such ratings will go over earning potential, ease of clicking, whether the ads are worth buying, whether their PTP is worth doing, and whether their upgrades are worth the money. I will also give a small synopsis of my experience with the website and their admin team.

Expect reviews to start coming!

Pait to Promote (PTP)

So now that you've gotten an introduction to the PTC/PTR world you will want to move onto the next way to make money. Paid to Promote is where PTC/PTR sites really shine. This is where you will make the most of your profits but it's also where you will need to do the most thinking.

Paid to Promote is a feature of PTC/PTR websites that allows you to promote their specical website. There are rules however. You can't promote this website in autosurfs and a person can only click the link once. Also you can only promote it at websites they tell you to. Most of these websites are other PTC/PTRs. How this works is you buy ads on the other PTC/PTR websites you have joined or find new ones to join to buy ads on. You will want to buy cheap ads that will get you a lot of view for little money.
This isn't as easy as it sounds though. Certain countries are worth more and getting view from places like China won't earn you much money. To maximize your profit you will want to buy ads that target Tier 1 and Tier 2 countries. But wait what are Tiers? Tiers are something important that you need to know about PTP. Each country is in a certain Tier. Most PTC/PTRs have 4-5 Tiers. When you buy ads you want to buy ads that target Tier 1 and Tier 2 countries. These will earn you the most profit. You will get money based on how many clicks you get and depending on which country clicks it. Generally Tier 1 is worth 1 credit and tiers below that are worth percentages of 1 credit.
The next thing you need to watchout for is how much PTPs pay per 1000 credits. The least you should bother working with is .73 per 1000 credits. Anything lower will be too hard to find ads cheap enough to justify it and there are just better PTPs to join. Once you know which websites you want to promote at you need to find ads. The trick to buying ads is to buy only ads that focus Tiers. If you don't you probably will not get your money back. Then next thing you want to do is check the price of the ads. Now you'll need to do a little math. Generally Tier 2 is .6 credits a click and Tier 1 is 1 credit a click. I like to assume that I won't get ANY Tier 1 clicks even though you definitely do. I then take the amount of clicks the ad has and divide it by the amount of dollars it is worth. This will give you the amount of clicks the ad offers per dollar. I then assume that all these clicks are Tier 2 and multiply it by .6 to see how many credits the ad will give me per dollar. We then take the amount of credits per dollar and divide it by 1000 so we get the credits per 1000 and multiply it by the rate of the PTP. If this number is above 1 it means you are gauranteed over 1 dollar for every dollar you spend. This is of course assuming you are getting all Tier 2 clicks so since you will probably get Tier 1 clicks you will make even more. I would say the lowest number to accept is .9.
Here is an example to clarify this:
First lets set some variables.
Lets assume the PTP is .75 per 1000 credits.
Next lets assume the ad you are buying is 5000 Tier1/Tier2 clicks for $2.

So lets do some math!
To get clicks for dollar we divide the 5000 clicks by 2 dollars for 2500 clicks per dollar.
Then we multiply .6 by 2500 and get the amount of credits per dollar. This will give you 1500 credits per dollar.
Now we just divide this number by 1000 and then multiply it by .75. This number is 1.125.
So what this means now is that you will get 1.125 dollars for every 1000 Tier 2 clicks. Since you won't get only Tier 2 but Tier 1 ads as well you will make even more and this is a good ad to buy.

As you can see the profit margins are usually 10-20%. This isn't a lot at but as you have more and more money to buy ads you will see your money multiply. You also can buy ads with the points you get from clicking point ads on PTRs/PTCs and get even more money.

This concludes the basic intro to PTP. As I start to write reviews for websites I will also give these calculations and tell you whether their ads are worth buying and give you ratings for them.

The World of Paid To Click (PTC)

The PTC world is very large and is the easiest way to make money online. It also yields the least returns but what you put in is what you get. If you are on a path to making money online with no initial investment(except time) this is for you. This is a great way to step up to other ways to make money online such as HYIP, Autosurfs, Selling E Books or just to earn extra income.

But lets just start with the basics:

A PTC program is a Paid To Click program. They are also known as PTRs or Paid To Read. However, since there is no real way to make sure you have actually read the content, for our purposes we will call them Paid To Click. There are hundred of these sites around although not all of them pay well. The first thing to do is to join a couple and see how you like it.
There are certain features of the website you should be aware of. PTCs generally will ask you to sign up by giving them your email. This is normal so don't be alarmed. They are only doing this to make sure that you have a valid way to recieve the emails. As a result I would suggest opening a new gmail or any other type of email (besides hotmail or aol they don't seem to work well with these websites). Once you have done this and recieved an email you will then be able to fill out the registration and begin clicking emails. You may recieve emails to your actual email or your account's "inbox" on the actual website. You may want to go into the options and only choose the account's inbox on the website instead of your email as you may not want to click all the emails or like the amount of emails you get. You can also set up a filter so that messages that are sent to you are sorted into folders and out of your inbox. This can make dealing with all of the emails much easier.
Now that you know how to sign up I will go over the uses of PTC programs and how to maximize your profits like how I have. The descriptions will help you learn to categorize PTCs and choose the ones that best fit your time schedule and learn how to use them to make money quickly
1. Avoid PTCs that don't let you open multiple ads at once. These take forever to go through and even though they may have increased profit, for the time you spend on it it isn't worth it.
2. Use PTCs that don't have turning numbers. You'll find that many PTRs have turning numbers which tend to slow you down. I wouldn't worry too much about this and out of 5 stars I'd rate it as 1 on things to worry about.

Now that we have gone through the features here are some tips to make your clicking go faster.
1. Use SnapLinks. This is a plugin for firefox that allows you to open all links in the box you make by holding down right click and creating a box. This is very useful for opening all the emails that come into your inbox if you choose that option so you can read the message in each and click the link to verify that you have done so. You'll have to search google for the plugin version that works with Firefox 3.
2. There are many automated programs that you can use to click ads. My personal recommendation is don't use them. This is simply because it is against the terms of joining these sites. However, many people do use these programs on these sites to automate movements and admins aren't readily able to catch cheaters unless they click cheat links and most people watch their PC while they automate things anyway. They do work but eventually you will make mistakes and you'll get banned and lose your earnings and it isn't worth it.
3. The most important tip is to use PTP. That is how you will make most of your money and that is what PTCs are generally used for. The next article will talk about PTPs as simply clicking won't make you as much money as reinvesting your dollars or points(many websites have ads that are worth points) for ads that you can then buy and use for PTP.

Be ready for more on PTP later! Good luck for now!
