PTC 101 – Earning Money while surfing – Part 1

Earning or finding a job is quite hard nowadays, the tension of economic crisis and the mismatched job, all account to high unemployment rates.
Having a job right now that you like is like a walk in the park. You earn while enjoying what you are doing, for those who don’t have the luxury, I am offering you something.

I entered the PTC business more than 3 months now and I can say, I am doing good. Though I don’t have thousands of dollars yet (yes, they pay dollars) in my account, I am getting there.

Let’s discuss PTC (Paid to Click)

According to Wikipedia, PTC is

Paid-To-Click is an online business model that draws huge amounts of online traffic from people aiming to earn from home. Paid-To-Click, or simply PTC websites act as middlemen between advertisers and consumers; the advertiser pays for displaying ads on the PTC website, and a part of this payment goes to the consumer when he views the advertisement.

It means PTC is a growing business, it has no limit on how much money you can make doing PTC.

I have listed benefits based on my experience engaging PTC:

1. It is easy.
•You don’t have to spend hours doing or engaging in PTC. All you need is 30 seconds, yes that’s right, just 30 seconds to get paid. It really depends
on the PTC site that you are into in terms of payment

2. Even if you have a full time job, you can still engage in PTC after work
•After a grueling 8 hour shift on the office, you can relax and do PTC.
You can even surf while doing PTC. After 30 seconds, you are paid.

3. You can employ friends and household members if you can’t PTC
•If you have a business trip and needs to go out for the weekend and the
place you will be staying don’t have any internet access, you can employ
your friends and household members to do PTC for you.


PTC is not a quick rich scheme. If you think that you will be earning thousands of dollars over night, think again. PTC servers need to reset after 24 hours of clicking them. So, it means that you need to religiously do it day after day.

Another warning:

The viability of the PTC business model has been questioned, as fraudulent clicks have ramped up the expenses for advertisers With lawsuits filed against the internet search companies, the burden has been placed on Google, Yahoo and others to determine the valid clicks from the fraudulent ones,although PTC site may just be used as advertising, to direct traffic to one's site. Moreover, many users registered in PTC websites are bots.
Some PTCs are also used to mimic mass human traffic which can help a botnet stay undercover and perform click fraud activity in 2nd and 3rd tier ad networks. Many PTC owners also pollute the ads with malware and botnet rootkits.
Scams although exposed on various PTC forums are still heavily used by new-comers who are drawn in to the websites by search engines. Scam PTC sites are known to attract new users with cheap offers for upgrade and referrals and disappear without trace after a short time. If you subscribe to a new site it is wise to be aware of those signs.


You will encounter PTC scams sooner or later. But don’t be afraid there are hundreds of reliable PTC that will give you money after clicking.
