It doesn't mater if you need referrals for your PTC sites or affiliate sites, If you need a down line I will give you my secret on getting more sign ups. First you will need your own website and hosting with several email accounts on your sites host, they must also have auto responders. The trick is to get a double opt in mailing list. These are people who are giving you permission to email them with all your referral links and affiliate links, but here is how to do it smarter. Your main page will tell what your site is about, You tell them you will show them free programs they can use to make money on the web at no cost to them, Get paid for viewing websites, reading emails or what ever it is that you are into. All they need to do is leave their name and email address in a "secure form" and assure them you will never sell their email addresses. This form is only an auto responder, this will send them a "confirmation email" once they hit the submit. The Auto responder will send a Prue written thank you letter and another link to yet another auto responder, you tell them they must click the link to confirm their address. Now you have a double opt in mailing list. The second auto responder now send them another link to your referrals page where you have all your referral URL's listed. To make this work write a few lines about the program and then use HTML to give your referral URL a link text, don't just give them that long URL, nobody wants to click those links, Use html to hide the url and say as the anchored text Join now or better yet create a button that says join now or join this program, When the click the link text or button it takes them to your referral url they sign up and join your down line. This also works with affiliate links as well. But you also have their email address, send out weekly or better a monthly news letter, urging them to join some new programs or but some of your affiliate products. Well that's my secret on building your own list... Oh wait i forgot the most important part!!! Advertise your lead capture,. or landing page, the one that describes what people are going to get if they leave you their email address, Advertise it in your local papers, biweeklies or any other way you can, a simple add, "Learn how to make Money online, Simple free programs that make you money, Go To www.mysite.com"

Sounds like you are setting up your readers, fooling yourself in the long run. If it is a newsletter your users signed up for, then they should know that when they sign up. If you have to go through questionable methods to make money online, you should rethink your business model and what you are selling. Best of luck!

Not at all, they should know from the beginning that they are giving you their address so that you can send them mail period. It is all part of the game, I should have added though one should always have another email box/autoresponder for those who wish to opt out.

That goes without saying
