Before Joining a PTC site

PTC sites are the easiest way to make money online. There are hundreds of PTC sites out there. But unfortunately many of then are scams or on the way to that status. So the million dollar question is how to identify genuine PTC sites. There are several steps you can take in order to keep your time and money away from scam sites. Here i describe some tips that i usually follow but you need to adapt yourselves to distinguish the good from bad.

1) Join only old PTC sites: The best PTC sites you should join must be older than two years. May be, some new sites are genuine. But you can't take risks. Most PTC sites are scam and don't stay for long. So if any site stays for a long time even more than two years, you can be sure that the site is genuine.

New sites sometimes pay there members to build trust. Some times Would provide you payment proofs to prove that they really pay. Having lots of payment proofs doesn't always mean that the site is genuine. After a few months, they might disappear. An old PTC site doesn't have to prove that they are genuine.

2) Check the Terms Of Service(TOS): Before you register for a PTC membership, make sure you read their terms of service. This is the most important step you will have to make because if you don't, you might work a few days or weeks for free. Some of the PTC sites have a lot of strange rules, I have even seen something like: "If you are a Chinese you will have to make a premier account in order to be accepted as a member and earn money" , etc.You must be care full because in the TOS is mentioned something about inactivity. If you don't have activity in your account more than 2-3 weeks, the account will be suspended, and the worst part is that you can't make another account from the same IP address. If you do not click your ads in one day, on the next day you will not receive the share from your referrals earning. In the end i would say - read carefully the TOS of every PTC site you consider joining .

3) Join Only sites with good referrals programs: PTC sites usually have referrals program. Because this is one of the best ways to increase membership. The more members a PTC site has, the more popular it is. So obviously, Every PTC site will have a referral program. You need to join the sites that provide the best referrals programs.

4) Join PTC sites with Active Forum: Every legitimate PTC sites will have forums to help their member share their ideas and knowledge with other members. You can use the forums to ask questions and share your experiences. Find out the number of members in the forum.
The more members, the more active the forum is.
There must be a special section for payment proofs where members can share their payment proofs. Some sites will ask you to share your payment after getting paid. These sites are legit .
Every legitimate and old PTC site has a forum. Even before joining, you can search in Google to find out experiences of other members. If you don't find any section where members can share payments, ask your self if you should join .

5) Check the Support System of the site: See if you find any contact from the contact the admin. Ask a question and see how long it takes to reach them and get an answer. If the real and serious about their business, they will be very active to answer your questions. At least, you will get an automated message for the receipt of your query.
An active contact system makes it clear how the site will work in the future. If the admin doesn't take care about what you ask or they are not active to answer your questions, the site is going to disappear very soon . Don't join the PTC sites that don't have a good support system .

Check their FAQ section or HELP section to get answers to your questions. See if the answers given are sufficient and detailed. See if there is any rating system for the answers. The best way to find out if a PTC site is SCAM is to search in Google with keyword SCAM. Use Keywords like Neobux Scam or Clixsense Scam. You will hundreds of results with lots of reviews .

If you want to earn serious money online, these PTC sites may not be helpful as the amount of money you will earning from them is very little. But since you don't have to spend a long time everyday to be able to earn from these sites, it's a good idea to join some legitimate PTC website spend some time everyday viewing advertisements .

While most PTC websites turn to be scam after a few months, there are some legitimate PTC websites that really pay. But the most difficult part is choosing some legitmate PTC sites. Because most PTC websites have very complex reviews by people who joined them. Before joining any PTC site, if you search Google for a review of that site, you would most likely find a lot of different kind of reviews. Some Would say that it pays.  Some would say that it doesn't. You might also see some payment proofs.

The story behind is that most PTC websites actually pay it's members in the beginning and when they gather significant amount of money from the advertisers, they stop paying. After some time, these PTC sites disappear.

  1. Just received a cheque for over $500.

    Sometimes people don't believe me when I tell them about how much money you can earn by taking paid surveys online...

    So I show them a video of myself getting paid over $500 for doing paid surveys to set the record straight.
