The thought of clicking adverts for pennies at a time has appealed to no-one I have yet described it to, but if you need money and have no opportunities, discernable talent or ideas on how to make it, Paid To Read/Click, or PTC (let's call it that), is for you. Furthermore, it is for me: I have a low paying job and find the tax free and easy income I can make whilst relaxing very helpful. If you are in similar circumstances, where just a little extra money a month could make a difference, PTC might be for you too.
How much money you make depends entirely on you. You decide how many PTC sites you sign up to and how often you click the links available. You are limited only by the number of sites available and how much compensation they offer. There is a plethora of sites available for you to join, too many in fact, and they normally offer between 0.25 and 1 cent.
Once you have decided on what sites to join and have started clicking, the next thing to do is start finding referrals. These are absolutely key, clicking for cash has very little value without them. If you are a member of a site which pays you one cent per click and 100% of referral options, as neobux does and the majority of ‘bux’ sites seem to, four referrals will see your earnings jump from one cent per click to five. If there are just four links available to click (I’m shooting low here) that will be twenty cents for you per day. Check out a ‘bux’ site, they advertise the possible earnings from multiple referrals on their front page, in bold and underlined you will find on there a four figure sum that you will probably never earn.
The owners of the ‘bux’ sites know this, but there is no doubt these rather phenomenal numbers entice some people to join their sites. This is sometimes harmless, everybody with a product advertises theirs, and with some sites you can theoretically earn thousands of pounds, as some people have. Mostly, it is not harmless, this promise is deliberately deceitful from the bulk of ‘bux’ sites. In my experience, such sites do not pay you what you earn. Anything that promises you more than one cent per click and per referral is lying, no site can afford to pay that much.
The twenty cents a day I mentioned earlier is still a very low figure. But this is at the very low end of earning potential. Not only will you have more clicks, but you can also join more sites and get more referrals. The big appeal is that you do not have
