Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! In this blog I will be exploring the world of making money online and posting my progress along the way. Please help support this free online resource by taking the time to visit my sponsors, who make this site possible. The first place I recommend for beginners is myLot. Not only do they pay you for participating in discussions, there are a lot of friendly people on there that are more than willing to help you out.

It was on myLot that I was first introduced to Paid-To-Click sites. The first of which was UpBux. It's a little slow to start out making money, and you might not think that it's worth it. The real trick to PTC sites is referrals. When you refer people to your site, you get paid for when they click as well. Plus, you can rent referrals once you get enough money in your account. These are legitamite sites, not scams, they really do pay. If you are even in doubt, myLot is a great place to ask around and see if people are really getting paid, or if the site is just a scam.



The next site I came across was NeoBux. Pretty much the same deal with this one, sometimes they give you a few extra ads.



Then I found CrownGPT. The give you a whole plethora of different things to make money on, including PTC, surveys, quizzes, and much more. You can also earn points to redeem rewards.



TrekPay is a new site in which you earn points, and then the points are assigned a dollar value at the end of the week. You just click on the ads that they tell you to, and you get your points.





Then I found Bux XL. They give you a LOT more ads than the other PTC sites do per day and make it faster for you to cash out.



It was somewhere around here that I found out about Amazon Mechanical Turk. This one is not like the other sites. It is owned by Amazon and only REAL jobs are listed on their site. The idea here is to complete HITs, which are like little jobs that an "employer" lists for "workers" to complete. You are rewarded a set amount of money per HIT that you complete, and that amount is determined by the employer. There are a lot of easy little jobs that you can do on here, like categorizing products, to labeling pictures.



Another neat site in this category is MicroWorkers. This one is geared a little more towards individual promotion thank mTurk is.

I've recently come across traffic exchanges. These are websites that exchange your views of other sites for traffic to your own site. The first of which I found is EasyHits4U. This is a very nice site that offers you a 1:1 ratio on views at 20 seconds, or 2:1 at 15 seconds. The basic account is free and you can earn $0.30 for every 1000 pages your surf.



While busily clicking away it occurred to me that I could do more than one of these at once, so I went looking for other reliable traffic exchanges. The next one I found is TrafficG.



I was getting double hits now with two TE's open, but still had a little extra time between pages. The third one I found is Power Hits Exchange. This one doesn't give you exactly a 1:1 ratio but some of the pages that you surf only last for 5 seconds.
