What is a PTC?

PTC means Paid to Click.
There will be list of advertisements from the site. You click one, wait for few minutes and earn. Then click the rest of the advertisements.

I got interested on online money making way back many years ago. I read about making money from one of the site forums. It says you earn money by just clicking advertisement over the internet. And it is free. That was the first time I know that I can earn money in the internet.

Here are the advantages and disadvantages that I have learned from PTC's.

Advantages of PTC:
1) It's free to join. All you need is your email address and sign up. For payment of money you are either paid via paypal or alertpay.

2) You don't spend several minutes on the site. Usually one ad will show within 30 seconds, leave it and click another one. Example if the site offers 10 ads, you only spend around 5 minutes on the site.
* You usually earn 0.01 dollar per ad.
* If the site has 10 ads a day then you earn 0.10 in one day.
* In one month you earn 3 dollars.

.01 (pay per click) x 10(ads) = 0.10 (earning in one day for 5 minutes)
30 (days) x 0.10 = 3 dollars in one month

3) If you have several referrals, you earn more. All you have to do is give your referral link to other people. If they join under you, you earn a percentage from them.
* Sample if the site pays .01 every referral's click for an advertisement.

Your click:
.01 (pay per click) x 10(ads) = 0.10 (earning in one day for 5 minutes)
30 (days) x 0.10 = 3 dollars in one month

One referral's click:
.01 (pay per click) x 10(ads) = 0.10 (earning in one day for 5 minutes)
30 (days) x 0.10 = 3 dollars in one month

If you have 10 referrals in 1 month you earn:
$3 (for 1 referral) x 10 = $30
$30 (from referral's) + $3 (Your earnings) = $33 in a month with 10 referrals

4) If you upgrade, meaning you pay money to enjoy more benefits from the site. Some double the number of advertisement being offered. Example if you are free member, you get 10 ads a day, if you upgrade your membership, you get 20 ads a day. Some site will give a higher rate for updrage member. If a free member earns .01 per ad, if you upgrade you earn .015 per ad.
* Sample computation of upgraded member.
* Per ad they pay .015

.015 (pay per click) x 20(ads) = 0.30 (earning in one day for 5 minutes)
30 (days) x 0.30 = 9 dollars in one month

5) Some ptc have buying power for referrals. If you buy more referrals you earn more.
* If you are a free member and you buy 30 referrals.

One referral's click:
.01 (pay per click) x 10(ads) = 0.10 (earning in one day for 5 minutes)
30 (days) x 0.10 = 3 dollars in one month

If you have 10 referrals in 1 month you earn:
$3 (for 1 referral) x 30 = $90
$90 (from referral's) + $3 (Your earnings) = $93 in a month with 10 referrals


Disadvantages:
1) Earning in PTC is very little compared to other money earning on the internet.
2) To earn more, you have to have more referrals or you upgrade.
3) You click everyday more or less to earn.
4) Most PTC's are good at the start but after few months especially if there are already many members they will not pay and will turn onto scam.
5) You have limited number of advertisement a day.


*** If you have plans on joining PTC it is best to google first the PTC site you are joining. Read the feedback from other members.

As of now, I am still joining Neobux. So far, this is the site that stays long and still pays. I think clicksense and onbux are okay also.
