There have been so many discussions about PTC sites. Is this one a scam? Is that one a scam? How can you make money....its only pennies?
As far as scams...you can do your research and save yourself many headaches down the road. There are new sites coming out everyday...do I join them right away...NO! Over the years I have learned to wait and see, it they are legit...they will be legit a couple weeks or even a couple months down the road. There is no reason to rush. Sure you may pick up a few more referrals. But, most sites are starting to limit your direct referrals, so there is no real loss if you wait. I see members in here promoting a new site....then a week later they are in here screamimg scam.
The sad part is they try to say ALL PTC sites are scams. That couldn't be further from the truth. There are many PTC sites that have been around for years and have paying their members the whole time. There are many newer ones that are currently doing alright. Sure there are NO guarantees in the PTC world. And a site may close down any day. But, that is only one site...not all PTCs.
As far as earning with PTCs, they are a great earning source. There are a few other members here that have been earning online for many years like myself. Most of them are receiving earnings from PTCs. Earlier I mentioned that there are sites that have been paying their members for years. I have picked up referrals over the years. In order to earn from PTCs you need referrals. Referrals are a part of your earnings that you build up over time.
PTCs are great. But, they are only a small part of what is offered on the internet to earn money. There are many methods. I believe you should spread your internet wings and explore all the different venues. I personally have my own website and blog that I earn with. I also do everything from writing to investing.
I guess the point I am trying to make is don't say a whole method of earning is a scam, because it didn't work out for you.

you're absolutely correct, workingmom. never put all your eggs in one basket. the reality in the internet is no different from real life and dealings. so, another rule is, exercise every caution, especially when you are asked to pay, even if the amount is negligible. i also agree with you that blogs and writing earn better, i've heard testimonials from friends, not those from the internet, but friends i can touch, feel and talk to.

I never have paid money out of my pocket to join any program.
I am already looking forward to starting my next blog. But, I need to clear a few projects first. I want to be able to allot enough time for it.

thanks for the response, workingmom. i think, a well-managed blog is a better source of online dollars.

Hello workingmom, Most of them are scam, but it is there is a few that legit. It just that someone punish them if one scam then the other are scam too. for me, it is the best way and easiest to earn, so if i get scammed by one, i just search it for another one.

Sadly most of the newer sites do close their doors. The old timers have been around for years...I really don't see them going anywhere soon.

Yeah well sites like Bux.to work maybe... But I can't know because I still need 40$ and that would take me 30 mins everyday for a whole month...
Cause you need 50$ to take the money from Bux.to...
