In PTC program like many other questions about making money online, the answer is yes and no.

The idea behind Paid to click sites is simple.  Advertisers pay sites to show their ads for a specific length of time.  The members or these PTC sites are then paid a small portion of the advertising cost to view the ads.

There are plenty of legitimate Paid to click sites out there, but there are also many scams that quickly set up shop with the sole intention of collecting money from inexperienced and unsuspecting advertisers with absolutely no intention of ever paying its members.

If you are just using a paid to click site to try to earn income, your risk is low as you will only lose time if the site doesn’t pay.  I suggest you do a google search about the specific site or look for information posted on forums.  If the site isnt paying people, it shouldnt be too hard to dig up this information.

For the sites that are reputable and paying, you may want to build a downline or upgrade to increase your earnings.

Paid to read and paid to click programs, otherwise known as PTR/PTC are legitimate online scheme that are now proliferating on cyberspace. This method is employed by many internet companies in their advertising campaigns. These companies pay people for reading emails. They pay you when you click a link in the email and visit the site that they are advertising, usually for a set amount of time. Others offer payment for surfing, clicking links, banner or just for joining or subscribing to a program. They also give additional money when you get other people to join under your link.

Some people say, it’s not worth they time. “Yes they pay, but for a measly sum.. and it takes so much time and effort before you receive your check”.

About two years ago, I joined some of these PTRE companies and started reading emails and clicking links hoping that I can earn some amount for my gas. I earned a few bucks after six months and I am tempted to stop. But I realized that I only did one part of the system. I never advertise and tell anyone about it… and that’s the reason why I never accumulate my earnings.

The secret to making money on PTR/PTC is to build a network of members under your name. You see, these companies give additional bonus if those people under you read their emails. And that’s where the real buck is. Imagine, if you have 10 people under you and those 10 recruited 10 each, you will then be entitled to some amount everytime those 110 people click their emails. The good thing is that most of these PTR/PTC pay up to 5 levels of your downline.

But certainly, you will not accumulate thousands of dollars reading emails and clicking banners. But if you have the habit of sitting in front of the computer daily, maybe, you might as well give this a try. Spending an hour opening your inbox will not harm you anyway. And sometimes, you can really find good offers and products that you do not find in your usual surfing cruise.

May I just give you a few tips in case you are tempted to join a few of these PTR programs. Before joining any program, it is important that you read exactly their offers. What you should look carefully are the following:

• Payout Scheme: it is advisable to pick those that give low and reasonable payouts;
• Mode of Payment: usually, most PTR/PC pay in check but others also offer payment through e-gold, paypal or stormpay. Select what will be the most convenient on your situation;
• Pay rates: The range is usually from 1 cent to 10 cents, but others also give special rates for special click options and pay to join program;
• Sign-up Bonus: Usually, it’s better to pick those that offer lower sign-up bonus. Those that give $50, $100 will put you waiting because, their payout will also be much higher.

There are many websites on the world wide web where you can earn money just for viewing advertisements placed by other site members who paid to put these ads there. The site has a timer and all you do is click on the ad, view it until the timer gets to zero and go to the next site. They are called paid to click sites or PTC’s for short. Although one only makes a penny or less for each click of the mouse do not let that fool you, it is possible to make fifty dollars per day or more with paid to click websites.

These sites also will pay you for each and every click made by other members who you have referred to the paid to click program. So you can have one thousand referrals all clicking ads and you get a penny for each of their clicks and this can really add up to alot of money. Some paid to click sites offer deals like one cent per click and one cent per referral click, while others offer half that, but those sites who pay less than one cent per click often have lower ad prices for their advertisers, resulting in more ads for you to click on than the other sites.

Many of these websites also have “paid to sign up” offers from other members as well. This is where you sign up into thier program and you get paid ten cents for that at most sites.
