World of PTC

PTC (Paid To Click) are growing in popularity pretty rapidly. These sites will pay you to click on their ads. Most sites will offer up to .02 cents per ad (For the Free/Standard account). Doesn't seem like much does it? If you can refer some of your friends to use your referral link, you can get a percentage of their clicks. Of course the more referrals, the more money (Referrals are big in PTCs).

How do you tell which is legit and which isn't? One easy way is to see how much they say they will pay you to click their links. The old adage of "if it sounds to good to be true, it probably isn't", can be applied to PTC websites. The legit ones are not here to make you rich overnight. It is however a nice way to get a little money here and there. There are people with some pretty wild success stories, or those that have massive amounts of active referrals, that may make some pretty good amounts of money. But, just like the commercials, in size 2 font no less, "Results not typical".

Also, if you have to pay to join, no matter how great it sounds, be very cautious. I always wondered why they don't let you join for free, then as you make some money, they could take some of your profits out for their cut. I would be more interested in joining something like that, then having to pay to learn the so-called 'secret'.


Good Luck! If you sign up to any of these listed on my site, drop me a line with any questions.  I'll do my best to answer them.

Hey, great idea for a blog! It's hard to find legit make money at home type stuff, so it's nice to find some that are "tried and true", so to speak. I'll likely pop back in again!
