Piad To Click (PTC)
Paid-To-Click is an online business model that draws huge amounts of online traffic from people aiming to earn from home. Paid-To-Click, or simply PTC websites act as middlemen between advertisers and consumers; the advertiser pays for displaying ads on the PTC website, and a part of this payment goes to the consumer when he views the advertisement.
The real boom in PTC industry started with two major players, Adbux and Bux.to, although a few were known to exist that never attracted much attention. These two websites drew huge amounts of visitors with their powerful advertising campaigns. At one time, Bux.to ranked at the 300th position on Alexa.
Lately a number of PTCs have started blooming, most of these lasting a few months at the most. This is due to the fact that the sustainability of the PTC business model is questionable, and scamming webmasters have made the situation worse. It is not uncommon to see a PTC website disappear overnight.
A new generation of PTCs has started emerging lately like NeoBux which continually keep revising and tweaking themselves to evolve an efficient survival strategy. Some of these websites offer instant payouts, wherein the website's script credits the user's account as soon as he cashes out. These websites also feature fraud prevention and hacker-proof technologies.

' Maximize Earnings
The best way to earn money at any PTC site is to get referral. For example, suppose you join one PTC program and you click 10 ads in a day, it means you earned 10 cents @ 1cent per ad so, if you join 10 sites then you will earn $1.0 in a day and $30.0 in a month.
Now say if you refer 5 friends to all 10 sites then your earnings will raise 5 times, means you will earn around $150 per month. The more signups you get for free the better off you are.
If getting a free referral is not possible then one can purchase it also. The number of referral and cost to it depends as per PTC site rules. I recommend joining as standard member and then from payout purchasing the referral. Do not invest money of your own.
' Suggestions
° Do not create duplicate accounts to make down line members; they will delete your account for forever. Refer real ones, you will definitely earn money. ° Join more then 10-15 PTC sites. Joining one or two PTC sites, one can only earn around $10 – $20 a month. To earn around $100 – $150 in month or two join more sites and try to get more referral. ° Be sure you are login before you surf ads or else you will not be credited. ° You can view ads once in 24 hours only ° Site doesn't logs you out automatically and so if added to favorite, just clicking to links you can start working on sites. ° From single computer, only one person should login to avoid termination. ° Build your down line members (referrals) ° Work regularly without failure (Click ads) ° Visit the forums of respected site and read other members views ° Make your own website or blog to collect referrals ° To join high paying PTC or not? Just read content below
High paying PTC pays more than one cent for each click. PayPal freezes the accounts of high paying PTC site considering that high paying PTC sites pays out from their earnings from the referral purchase and sites are operating as ponzi schemes. It means that it is possible that site might close after few months of operations and one can loos money spent and efforts made to earn money.
The lower paying PTC sites usually pay a half cent per click or less but are much more reliable in the long haul. Some PTC sites do the same type of thing by keeping it at one cent per click but paying out fifty percent referral commissions. This way they can charge a bit less for advertising, which attracts advertisers to their site like honey. These PTC sites handle payout requests much faster because they do not need to wait for new money to come in. They pay immediately from the advertisers money rather than waiting for fresh money from upgrades and referral purchases.
In my opinion it is better to join lower paying PTC sites.
List of scam sites
° Should I Buy Referrals From My Favorite PTC?
Free or purchase referral are same in a sense that both are registered through same process and earning potential remain same.
Website owners run special scripts that keep track of referrals we bring in. The old standard method was to automatically install a cookie on PC when one (say A) visits the website.
Say “A” got referral link for site XYZ, instead of joining, “A” surf to another site. If cookie isn’t deleted before “A” visits another web site, and then come back to XYZ site, and decide to join web site, that cookie would still put “A” in the down line.
To avoid loosing referral you bring for free for yourself, just check it by yourself that what explained above isn’t happening with the PTC site one is registered with.
To check, first, logout of the PTC and browse own referral link. Click on the "join" or "register" button. When page loads, make sure you see your nickname or affiliate ID number somewhere on the URL. If it is not, then one is loosing free referral.
So before buying referral or placing ad with your referral link make sure that you are not loosing them. To place an ad, evaluate your options. With correct option chosen, one can get higher number of referral @ lower cost. I have listed few traffic exchange options below, through which one can easily get referrals for free.
