Easyhits4U

First of all, this site is NOT A PTC, but is a BIG tool we can use. You can use click exchange to give traffic to your blog or website in order to fish referrals, but if you want big traffic EasyHits4U is the site to get it.

Unlike many click exchanges, this sites offers you a 1:1 ratio!!! This means that for every page you see you gain 1 credit (equal to one hit). Like many click exchanges this sites gives you rewards too! Banners, credits, tickes and cash!! For every 1000 sites surfed you get $0.30 USD. It's also approved for PTP on some PTCs.

Let me summarize the benefits:

Traffic Exchange ratio: 1:1

Pays: $0.30 USD bonus for every 1000 viewed sites

Minimum Payout: $3.0 USD

Wait Time: 5-7 Business days.

Payment Methods: PayPal, AlertPay.

So give it a try, you won't be disapointed!!

Click Exchange

This feature, also known as manual surf, is available in all aurora (pre-made script) sites I know and it’s usually on earnings area

This feature doesn’t give us money like PTC banners or links, but it give us click exchange credits that we can use to gain traffic. The credits we get will depend of the ratio that the site offers, in this case we can see its 5/4 (most auroras use this ratio). 

What this mean is that for every 5 pages we see we’ll get 4 credits or hits. Also many auroras insert a random reward game in which we can earn money or banner credits, link credits, PTC credits, etc.

You may wonder why do I need traffic for? I just wanna ear money not gain traffic! Well you can earn money or even better get referrals if you use this!! Lemme explain both cases:

Earn money: Many sites like DonkeyMails and CashnHits will pay you to promote your PTP link, you can find it usually on the Promote area. You need to check the terms for this in order to know how much you’ll earn and in which sites you can promote your link, (donkeymails just allow some sites be careful).

Get referrals: Click exchange isn’t really effective for this but it’s possible and you can achieve in a direct way or indirect way.

Direct. You can just simple add your referral link and assign it credits in order to be displayed in the click exchange area and if someone joins through it you got a new referral. But this is unlikely :(

Indirect: Let’s say you just decided to open a website or a blog where you display your banners with referral links, well now you need to promote your site!! No one will just stumble into it. Many people, if not all, use search engines and "While there may be millions of web pages that include a particular word or phrase, some pages may be more relevant, popular, or authoritative than others”

So flood your website/blog with your credits!!! And who knows maybe if u made your website attractive some clicker will see it while surfing and join through you banners!

Put your credits to work!

Go to the manage ads area and add your PTP link or website page.

  

Select Click Exchange Sites

Click Manage so you can add a new site

Click on Create New Ad

 

Fill all the fields, notice that you can target countries and premium members only!

Notice that the site needs the admins approval, this can take hours or days, depends on the admin. When it gets approved it will say Active or Approved on the status column and u can add credits.

 



Here you can see how many credits you have, and if you dont have any can purchase them which is not a very good idea imo.

Here you can type in how many credits u want to use, manage them wisely :)

So there u have it folks, these are only two uses of click exchange, I'm sure that if you're creative you can give it more uses. This can be used to other things outside PTC world too, as long as the terms allow it, if you or someone you know has an online business give it some traffic!.

Notes: 

• If you’re using click exchange for PTP don’t use banners with your PTP link, it will be a waste and increases the chances of a member seeing your PTP link twice. 24 hours unique hit is a standard.
• In donkeymails click exchange is known as manual surf and they have some unique rules about PTP.
• Some sites only allow PTP earnings to upgraded members.

Have fun with click exchange!!

Dodge the scam

Scam definition: a confidence game or other fraudulent scheme, especially for making a quick profit; swindle.

There are many PTCs that are scam from which you will not receive a single penny. But the major threat is the sites that have a good beginning and turn into scam, taking away your investments and your valuable time. In order to avoid such sites we must have in mind these considerations:

1. - There’s no such thing as a “trusted admin” or “trusted site”, they’re only trusted while they’re paying.

2. - PTC sites are to earn money, if u want to invest a large amount of money the best option is the bank.

3. - Every PTC could become a scam tomorrow.

Now, you maybe wonder Why join a PTC then? Well the truth is that many sites have achieved a good stability and have been paying for years. If you want to join a PTC and reduce the possibility of getting scammed check this things first:

• Who is the admin and where is this site located? We can gain such information through a website (on the right side you can find a link or click HERE). If the site uses a PrivicyProtect then we can most likely not trust it. If we can obtain the name of the admin we should Google it and search on forums to know his reputation. If the site is located in a third world country well… I don’t like to discriminate but a site located in the US, UK, Netherlands, etc., makes me more comfortable.
• Search engines are your friends. If you want to join a site a quickly way to know if it’s a scam is a simple search on Google. Let’s say you want to join 10bux.com, just Google “10bux.com scam” “10bux.com payment proof” “10bux.com pays”.
• Does the site have its own domain? If the site uses a free host or a sub domain then how can be trusted? No money for its own domain= no money to pay you.
• READ THE TERMS. I know it is boring yea but many scammers know it too and the count on you not reading them. Many sites use tricky terms that will lead you to a big surprise when you try to cash out like “you need to invest in order to cash out” or “We don’t pay to people from your country”, so READ THE GOD DAMN TERMS.
• Verify what kind of information the site asks to register. If you need to provide personal information register with a fake one. When you feel comfortable with the site and you’re close to cash out then change it for the real one. The only thing you need to use is a real e-mail to verify your registration, in this case register with the e-mail account that you use for spam.
• NEVER register with a password that is the same to your payplay account or your main e-mail.

If you already joined a PTC keep an eye on this:

• Broken Links. Take some time to look around the whole site, if you find many broken links and errors this mean that the admin doesn’t care about the site or has already left it. If he doesn’t care about his site he won’t care about your payment. 
• The ads. It’s common to see many of ads from people advertising their referral link, but if we notice that there are ads from outside PTC world its good sign! On the other hand, many admins just launch a PTC to gain referrals and then abandon the site. Its ok if the admin uses one or maybe two ads to promote his referral link, but if we notice that there are too many ads like this then most likely you won’t get paid. This is because the site doesn’t really have advertisers, which are the main source of income of a PTC. 
• ¿How much the site charges for advertise? Let’s say that the site we joined offers this to advertisers:

500 clicks for $1.5 USD

1000 clicks for $2.5 USD

2000 clicks for $4.0 USD

5,000 clicks for $8.0 USD       And pays its members $0.005 USD for click.

If we do the math we notice that this site will be broke soon, because if a member does 300 clicks he’ll have $1.5 USD but the site charges 500 clicks for $1.5 USD!

• ¿Does the site has a forum? A site with a forum is always more trustable because you can have contact with the admin and his staff. Also we can see other member opinions and their payment proofs.
• ¿How much traffic does the site generates? We can know this from other websites that measure traffic; check the right side for alexa’s traffic.
• Investments. The best choice is the bank in my opinion. Sometimes if the PTC looks good and you have received your first payout, then well… It’s ok but don’t invest more of what you can afford, every investment carries a risk.
• Minimum Payout. When you reach it cash out! Every site could stop paying tomorrow so take your money, this tell you right away if the site deserves your trust.

For last but not least, if for some reason you got scammed, tell everyone!! Don’t let other fellow clickers suffer the same.

Have fun clicking!!

BuxHost sites

If you’ve been clicking for a years, months, weeks or even just one day I’m pretty sure you’ve notice this “clone” or “generic” sites that look almost the same:

Well, all this PTCs look alike because they use a pre-made script called NextGen which is provided by BuxHost.com 

BuxHost.com is a site that offers for only $25.00 USD for a month the NexGen script, a domain, DDos attack protection and technical support so you can have your own PTC site!!

The problem is that since it’s too easy to have a PTC many people, without experience or with the intention to get a quick profit, launch sites that will stop paying very quickly and turn into scam. Many NexGen users just launch a PTC to get referrals on sites like clixsense or neobux, they don’t have real advertisers, all the ads are just the admins referral link.

The” good” thing about this kind of sites is that the usually offer a higher pay per ad than their competition (Aurora, Zeus, Cashcsrusader, etc.). But this higher pay is, usually, proportional to their life expectancy since the more you pay per click the more you charge to advertisers. One thing I’ve notice is that many NextGen sites don’t have advertisers from outside PTC world, they just have ads promoting referral links or other NextGen sites which leads to increase minimum payouts, force upgrades on members and charge some ridiculous fees, and in my opinion this is why they fail. 

Most clickers share the opinion that NextGen sites are not trustable. But it’s not the script itself to blame but the admins of such sites, I think it’s not cool to generalize or tag all NexGen sites as scam even thou most of them will scam eventually.

If you’re going to join a NexGen site just beware that they tend to go scam faster than others, and almost everyday a new one is launched.

Have fun clicking!!

How a PTC works?

Since the beginning, the PTC sites were created to provide advertisers traffic to their websites, being the members the source of that traffic. The members in exchange receive a payment.

If we look carefully we can see that no PTC will last forever, they can stop working. If the PTC doesn’t have the enough quantity of advertisers it will not be able to pay its members. Also if the PTC doesn’t have enough members it won't be able to provide the traffic that advertisers need. When one of these scenarios occurs, the site could become a scam. Also a site with many advertisers, especially those outside PTC world, will last longer.

Abour referrals

What's a referral?

Is a person who joined, a PTC, trough you via your referral link or it’s given to you by the administrator of the website.

We can dive them in two categories:

1. - The way u get them:

a) Direct referral: Is the person who joined the PTC through your referral link from other site, forum, blog, mail, etc.

b) Rented referral: Is a person who is assigned to your account by the administrator of the PTC for a certain amount of time in exchange of a payment.

c) Bought Referral: Is a person who is assigned to your account by the administrator of the PTC permanently in exchange of a payment. (They become the same as direct referrals)

2. - Depending on their activity:

a) Active referral: Is a person, assigned to your account, who clicks on the available ads on the PTC like you.

b) Inactive referral: Is a person, assigned to your account, which does not click on the available ads on the PTC, and doesn’t bring you earnings.

Is it good to buy or rent referrals?

Referrals will allow you to maximize your earnings on a PTC site, with your own clicks you’ll always have a limit.  But before u buy them or rent them try to get them for free using your blog, website, forum, etc.

If that doesn’t work and you want to buy or rent them consider this question: why would a site rent or sell referrals? A member with a lot of referrals will cost more to the site, we know that the site depends of the advertisers to be stable but what if it could charge its members too? That would be a round business my friends.

Many clickers share the opinion that rent or buy referrals it’s a wild gamble that can bring you big loses, you can’t know how long a bought or rented referral will be active and in most sites they’re pricy. You can see in forums many people ranting about how their rented referrals didn’t click once in a week or day, or that they click just one ad per day, and this has led to the idea that PTC owners don’t rent real referrals, they rent bots (software applications that run automated tasks over the internet). I have no opinion on this, nope, not at all but I’d like to quote the owner of bananabux:

       "... all PTC use bots - system - which is configured, administrators, as they need it! Is it bad? No! That's good! Bots - the system allows the site to PTC - make ongoing investments, I have worked on many sites - and where admins were trying to sell only real referrals - they have nothing in the end did not go - referrals quickly bought and was a constant shortage - the result that investment is declining - and site becomes nothing to pay..."

Many sites sell ebooks or guides about how to get referrals, I give you a free one HERE
