To be honest with you the idea is intriguing. The thought of making money by simply looking at some websites is cool. Their are however things that may cross your mind. Such as how does it work?. Why would people pay for someone to simply look at a website. How can anyone make money buy paying someone to look at your website.
Well here are some of those answers. Looking at the PTC programs out there. You need to look at them as a broker. Because that is exactly what they are. Startup companies are desperate to get good rankings in search engines. And they have heard that traffic brings their ranks up in search engines. So their goal is to get high up in search engines to one day achieve paying customers. This is the whole idea behind Google AdWords.
Google AdWords is program by Google that allows companies to make ads and then bid on them. The more money you spend on an ad, the better results you will get. Google then has seperate program connected to Google AdWords known as Google AdSense. Which is for people who want to make money from Google. In this case Google is now the broker.
Google lets you put the same ads the the people have created and are paying for on AdWords onto your website. When someone clicks on one of those ads you get paid a portion of what Google gets paid by the advertiser. I know it sounds to simple to be true. But it’s true. And some AdSense users make millions this way. Your probably thinking that you could just sign up to Google AdSense and start clicking on Ads yourself and make money that. This is called click fraud and can violate the TOS of Google AdSense. If Google finds that you have done this you will be banned from Google AdSense. Trust me it happens all the time.
Other companies have gone a separate route in preventing click fraud. To prevent it they simply encourage you to click on such ads. This is where PTC (Paid To Click) comes in. I think more and more companies are turning towards this solution. Mostly because they are assured traffic, and prices are a little more of a fixed price. Not so much of a bid and a gamble.
Now their is money in such programs but don’t expect to quit your day job. And of course who really would expect to make a living off of doing pretty much nothing except for looking a a few websites for a few seconds every day. However looking at it as though it is in fact that simple. Making a little bit of extra cash for doing something a 2 year old could do is not bad.
Now choosing the right program can be difficult. There a several programs out their that do these the PTC programs. Such as Clix Sense, Neo Bux and Two Dollars A Click
You can if you wanted to sign up to each one. Keep in mind that all of them have a payout minimum. So you have to make a certain amount before you can start spending your money. Not only that but they all have limited amounts of ads. This is because the concept is still fairly new, And not that many people have started advertising in this manner. So you most likely will spend about 10 minutes every day for several months before you can get your check.
Clix Sense you can make up to 2 cents per click. But most of the time you will make $0.001 cents. Which is only a fraction of a cent. The payout minimum for Clix Sense is $8.00 for direct Deposit and $10.00 if your want a check mailed to you.
Neo Bux you get paid about the same amount per ad. With the same Pay Minimum.
Two Dollars A Click is obviously the the eye catcher in this list. The name it’s self says it all. You get paid $2.00 for every single click. But their is a catch. The payout minimum is $2000.00 for free customers. And free customers only can view 10 ads every day. So every six months you pretty much get $2000.00 dollars for just spending a few minutes on your computer doing pretty much something anyone with pulse can do. Not bad if you ask me.
