This method uses paid-to-click (also known as ptc) sites. These sites receive money from advertisers who pay for a particular amount of visibility. In turn, ptc sites pay their members a small amount (usually around $.01) for each ad clicked. Most ptc sites offer around 5 ads a day and have a minimum cash out requirement of $2-$5 dollars.
Wait! Don't leave!
I know you're probably thinking "$0.01 per click plus 5 clicks a day = $0.05 a day or about $1.50 a month! Screw that!" but there's a catch that will soon have you making so much more.
The Catch That Will Make You $$$
Most ptc sites, and the ones that I use, allow you to make money through referrals, and often not just direct referrals but rented referrals. Direct referrals refers to individuals that you personally refer. For example, if your brother signs up through your referral link then he is a direct referral. Rented referrals refer to members that weren't referred by anyone when they sign up that the site lets you rent. For example, at Neobux you can rent groups of referrals. 3 referrals will cost you $0.75 for 30 days. Every time any of your referrals, direct or rented, clicks an ad you get paid also! So instead of making $0.05 a day, if you had only 10 referrals you would be making 10 times that amount.
First a word of warning:
Not all ptc sites are created equal. I currently use 3 different sites, two which have the reputation for being extremely reputable for prompt fast payments. The third site I use has a terrible reputation or lengthy delayed payments, however I'm giving it a try for myself. Long story short, please do your due diligence before spending time you may not get paid for. If you have any questions regarding ptc sites feel free to ask me in a comment.
Now the step-by-step guide to start making money:
*Note all links I post will be my referral links. While you aren't required too, I'd greatly appreciate it if you sign up through my links if you decide to follow my guide. Referrals will be discussed later and you will see how it will help me out and keep me motivated to keep this blog running*
Step 1: Sign up with AlertPay
- You will need to be a member of a payment processor site in order to receive your payments. I use Alertpay which is a well established reputable site with nice payout options. Please sign up through the banner below.
- You need to sign up at some ptc sites, the banners below are the links to the two highly reputable sites I use. Please use them to sign up.
- You can sign up for as many sites as you like. I have simply provided you with two highly trusted ones. Don't forget my word of warning.
- Now that you have signed up for the sights the first thing to do is start clicking ads. Click ads will allow you to generate money you can then use to rent referrals who will earn money for you every time they click.
- The goal here is to earn at least $0.85. This is because if one of your rented referrals stops clicking, you can recycle them for a new one at reduced cost (typically $0.08).
- Once you earn at least $0.85 transfer it to your rental balance and rent your first group of 3 referrals.
Step 4: Rent Referrals, Turn on Autopay, and Keep Clicking
- Once you rent your first group of referrals turn on autopay. This only pays the referrals if they click, and saves you money in the long run.
- Make sure you keep clicking your ads everyday and recycle any referrals that aren't clicking.
- I joke, but really you just keep repeating the above steps each time you earn enough money to rent more referrals.
- Once you have been a member for 30 days you can also earn credit from direct referrals, so tell your friends, tell your family, tell everyone that there is free easy money to be had!
- Eventually you will earn enough money to upgrade your account which is recommended as it will earn you more money from referrals as well as giving your more ads to click.
- It is important to click ads everyday otherwise you won't receive money from your referral clicks as most sites require you to click a certain amount in order to profit from referrals. While this seems like a nuisance it is actually great because not only does it keep you clicking. It also keeps your referrals, the ones you're profiting from, clicking as well.
- Believe me it, I know how discouraging it can be at first since you are only earning about $1 a week but be patient. With time you'll earn enough in a week to purchase larger and larger referral packs which means with time you soon been earning significantly more.
- With patience earning $20+ a day is not unheard of or unreasonable!
I hope this guide was helpful. As mentioned before please use the links I have provided. It costs you nothing and in turn helps me out. After all I did take the time to write this guide and kept it free from obnoxious ads and ridiculous pop-ups.
