I am disappointed on members or online bloggers stating that their endorsed site is paying just like readbud. If you endorsed a site be sure YOU ARE A PAID MEMBER and that's the time you can claim the statement " Its paying thru paypal ".
Someone stated that readbud pays. But when? Can you still claimed they are still paying until now? We all know that most of the sites either stable or gone to scam.

My experience is that some online earners will say just about anything to get referrals. It is up to me to further research because it is I who will be doing and wasting efforts. For instance anytime I put any online site I make sure I post a payment proof and or explain on a blog that I am still testing it out.
See it is one thing to get a referral but to keep them active one must be honest and upfront. However, some do not see it this way and will "claim" sites are legit and or paying simply because this is what they too were told and or want the referral.
As for readbud, when I started there I had not clue it was a scam, yet I put in my blog that I was testing it and not paid yet. Then as soon as I researched and found out it was a total scam, I removed it from my blog.

What is odd is that still to date they have so many members still signing up. In fact here there are still 2 - 3 weekly discussions, although as of a week ago I have not seen any. So maybe it is a slowly dying site. But how the site still holds up, is still an amazement for me.

Same here. I make sure a site pays before I waste my time joining them. I am joined with alot of paying sites only.

I never join to any other online paying sites. I just want to focus on mylot since i love the site and i enjoy it here. I don't want to waste my time to any scams. I better play safe than being fooled by these monstrous scams.

I really like Mylot too but they just do not pay enough for my work online. I am joined with several other sites that pay me also.

there really are good sites online. You guys should check out text-broker. This is legit, it pays through pay pal and easy to sign up. It is a site that has people write about many different topics for clients. If you enjoy writing this is one good site that can help you to earn around 50 a month if you are a regular at least. I hardly write on it with my schedule and just signed up not but two months ago and I have already earned 50 dollars for writing articles. I would suggest for the sample writing you try to rank a four more jobs are available. wink

I too joined Readbud, spent a great deal of time reading the articles, reached payout, claimed my $50 and I have been waiting for months so the chances of being paid are nil at present. Sadly this site appears to be a scam and I have heard from a lot of members who also have not ever been paid anything. I will not bother with them again...

I will not claim a site pays until I have been paid at least once if not more than that. If it is a newer site I won't endorse that it pays until I have been paid at least twice. I am not one to get referrals that easily so the second payment after a site starts usually takes longer to reach and get paid.. if I get through that then I can say it has paid me. If I am working a site that I like and I haven't been paid, I will say that.. thing is I really don't endorse any sites these days. To many that I was a member of has folded or has changed so much that if I try and endorse them I am afraid they will change again or change payment processors.. or say they are having trouble with one or the other.. IF someone is talking about a program in a discussion here I will reply if I have been paid or not, how well it went etc. Thats it..
To many start and disappear for what ever reasons.. so becareful in what you invest in.. I don't..

As a person who reviews some paying sites, I don't write the review for a site until I get paid or don't get paid. And if I get paid, I always have a link to a payment proof. I've actually earned through referrals because I wrote a review for a site that has paid me.

Yeah! It pays to have a credible source of information and also proofs of payments. I never start working on sites that I really don't know and with nobody claiming much that the site pays. I am always cautious on the sites I join as I don't want to putt my effort to waste. A lot of users really would try everything to reach payout and see if the site pays and to do this they try to lure in referrals already even though they themselves haven't been paid yet. Sad truth but we have to deal with it. All we can do is research first about the reputation of the sites referred to us.

haha, I just reached payout for readbud, so i'll be waiting to see if they really pays or not. IT's stated payment needs about 30 days so i'm waiting, and giving it up to mid october, for any public holidays, weekends and whole lot of excuses.. haha
If ever i'm promoting a site, i'll make sure i let my referrals know whether i've been paid or not. IF not, it's not fair to the others, working so hard while the actual referal is doing nothing ![](/Content/images/emotes/thumbdown.gif)
