You are right to be suspicious of any website promising you money, especially if they promise a lot of it or that it will be easy to gain. This should not deter you from trying however, as there are plenty of places online you can go to get money with relative speed and ease. There are survey sites that will pay for your opinion, sites like Helium that will pay you to write articles, and there are even sites that will pay you just for clicking adverts. That’s right, you can get paid cash money for the brainless task of clicking on links and viewing short advertisements, and you can earn a very decent amount if you convince other people to do the same.

Lets get this straight: the number of Paid to Click (PTC) sites that will pay you is massively outweighed by those that will not. The reason this should not deter you from participating in PTC is just, simply, that it is easy to tell which are paying sites and which are not. First of all you can get recommendations from reputable sites such as buncecentral.110mb.com, BeenPaid or numerous forums on the internet. Following that there are tell-tale signs that clickers ought to be aware of when eyeing up a site.

The most obvious thing to do is check how much money the PTC site is offering you. Sites have in past offered clickers up to $1,000 per click and set the payout limit at $1,000,000. Obviously, they could not afford to pay this and did not intend to pay any of their moronic members. More commonly there have been sites that offer $5 or $10 per click, that also did not pay. The most popular scam site I have ever seen is waoIndia. This site promises to pay ten cents per click, and even if I hear one of its far-too-many members tell me they have been paid I will not believe them.

Consider Neobux, the most famous and successful PTC site. For un-upgraded members they offer one cent per click, and one cent per referral click if you are active. You can upgrade and get two cents for every click, but you ought to know that this is approximately the limit. Any PTC promising you more money than this is lying or extremely optimistic about the amount of clickbank revenue they will generate. Why so many are taken in by waoIndia and its conspiring cohorts is beyond me.

I have been clicking for two years now and have been paid by thirteen different sites in total. The following sites have scammed or not paid me:

Angelbux: Found out it was a scam so stopped clicking.

PaidtoViewTube: Just disappeared from the face of the web.

SandraClicks: I think something unfortunate happened to the owner, and they did pay other members before.

SwatCash: Went bankrupt, but was a payer. As it also had paid-to-signup potential and a referral system I amassed over one hundred dollars which I will never see, and will be of no comfort to the owner.

Archerfish: Deleted my account inexplicably. I was not far from payout and had several referrals as well.

Don’t be over concerned with these few negative experiences, or any of your own. All five times I was scammed or not paid happened to me fairly early on in my clicking career. It may the ginger stepchild of internet money-making, and ugly too, but PTC does provide many people with a viable income. It can provide you with one as well if you give it a chance.
