PTC Sites (Transplanted from my other blog)

Hate to break it to all you surfers out there who want to make a quick buck off the internet, but PTC sites are a big waste of time and energy, all of them. If you want to make money off the internet, you need to have an idea, a much better idea than this blog, and definitely a much better idea than sitting around in your underwear, glancing at PTC ads for 30 seconds and making $0.0001 for doing it. If any PTC site says you're going to make much more than that, don't even bother registering, if you snoop around, you'll find that many PTC sites actually say they're going to pay you more than what they charge for ad hosting, which is a bunch of BS. These sites don't pay, and if their TOS says anything at all about paying, it's generally something like "you must invest to recieve a payout" or "payout will be made in an undisclosed amount of time, equal or less than 1000 years from the payout request date". Nobody actually reads the TOS anyway, especially not those of us who've ever been stuck in that dark, dreary place called desperation, the one that takes you to PTC sites in the first place.



There is one use for these horrible, lying sites though: They drive traffic, If you're not looking for quality traffic, or even low quality traffic, and you need clicks to get noticed, this is definitely the place to go. All you need to do is find a PTC site that's obviously a scam, I.E. one that says it pays $0.20 a click like this one, create an account, and start clicking. You'll waste a good 20 minutes of your life looking at ads for other PTC sites, wondering, much like I have, how this market ever came to exist, given the fact that all of its ads link to other PTC sites, rather than anything anyone is actually going to pay for. After killing the requisite 1.3 billion neurons, you should have enough to transfer your "earnings balance" to your "payment balance". We can then move on to the next step.

Disclaimer: if you picked a site that doesn't allow you to transfer your "earnings" to your "payment" balance, you will have to start from the beginning, try the link I posted above, and be careful, excessive PTC use can lead to irreversable brain damage, such as actually believing you can make money off of these things. 

Now that you have some "purchase" money, just create a PTC ad, follow the format used by all the ones you clicked on, promise a get rich quick scheme, or some other poorly thought out headline, and pick the cheapest package with the highest number of clicks. You won't get quality, but you will get quantity, and fast (see image below). This counts if you're getting paid for ads on your site, or want someone to maybe, just maybe, sign up on yours.

It's important to note that though I recieved over 200 hits in a day and a half, none of them signed up, and none of them helped me get any better at the game I'm playing (see previous post). In other words, this little experiment was as big of a waste of time for me as it will be for you. Unless you need really, really, really bad traffic on your website, and have no better way of attracting it, don't even bother with PTC.
