Ok, you probably get a lot of people that have no clue, and I'm sorry, but I'm one of them. Since I stay at home due to a disability, I have tons of time to play on the computer and would like it to do a little work for me. So, I have some questions that are probably very basic. I would definately appreciate it if I could get some direction.

I am not sure how these programs work, the sites I have browsed don't seem very clear and talk about referrals, etc. Do you need to have a website or something?

I'm feeling a little like my IQ has dropped 50 points trying to figure this out. Any help would be great.

Thanks!
Kara

The best thing to do as someone new is hang around here as much as you can. People are very good about answering specific questions, etc.

The sites are based on what you do personally - clicking, reading emails, etc and how many people you introduce to that program (referrals) and what they do. Generally-sites pay a percentage on different referral levels - Example I join a site - you join under me (you would be a first level referral to me) - you find someone to sign up under you (that person would be a first level referral to you and a second level referral to me). The whole thing works like tree branches if that helps.

It takes some time to get used to how this all comes together.

If you want - send me some Private messages and I can help you get started.

Good explanation cmarus. If I were you I would search through the general, praise and downline builder forum to find some of the better sites.

There are some pretty bad sites out there so beware.

I would recommend that you join Noey-Place-Pays, Greenletter, Allyousubmitters (AYS), Annies-Biz.....i know i'm missing some.

Feel free to private message me if you have more questions or want to sign up for some programs.

P.S. THIS WILL NOT MAKE YOU RICH

but you can earn some extra bucks

hey kittenhead,

first off welcome to wild and crazy world of gptr (get paid to read) and to the forum....like the other posters said, you won't get rich but there IS money to be made online....IF you're willing to take the time to do it. I work a full time job and do the ptr's as a second job....and I know exactly how you feel--the same way I did about 7 months ago! I'm NOT a kid out for a few quick bucks...so I'm willing to work to get money I earn, ya know? I've managed to get paid about $45-50 since the first of the year (let's throw a party LOL I'll buy the first round)

but seriously, if you want some help with some easy ones to start out with (low payouts, not a bunch of emails all at once) feel free to pm me and I'll be glad to help ya!

and again welcome to the forum kittenhead

Thanks for the responses so far. I'll be in contact via PM soon. I'll probably do some reading here over the next day or so. Funny, that's the first thing we do on my board. I read around a bit, but got confused, too much info at once I guess.

Thanks again and I look forward to reading more here.

There is only One method to earn some money:
1. Find some good PTR (paid 2 read) and PTC (paid to click) sites (or chose some from me )
2. Build big downline by them (you should have maximum 5 PTR and 5 PTC)
3. Every day check ypur mail and websites of this firms (it will take you MAXIMUM 0.5 h)
4. Make (as many as it's posible) click in every mail and website
5. And watch how much earn your refferals

The beginings are very difficult, an you wont earn much money, but ..................... after 3-5 month, who knows

And remember ONE GOLD RULE:
"beeing somebody referall is good .................. not bad"

P.S. if you have any questions PM to me

as a newbie, try joining some of the lower minimum payout PTR programs first... because if you join the higher payout PTR programs, you will do months of clicking and feel discourage because none of the money is going to your account lol... so try the lower min first! you can always ask me questions if you need help

kingster 167 has RIGHT

but, I suggest, that you sign Up for few Good Programs With 5$-10$ minimum
like MailingHeaven (link on the bottom of this reply)

You Should Sign Up to "No Minimum Programs"
like Goldsalary (PTC) or Gold4Mail (PTR) they paid to your E-GOLD acconut everyday, when you reqest PAYMENT

Some programs have also low minimums LIKE 0.50$, that is easy to earn

EDITED BY ADMIN - PLEASE READ THE RULES

stichu - you might want to want to refrain from referring to your signature like that - the moderators will consider that spamming the board.

I'm a fairly new one to this too and have found that most of the people here are very friendly and willing to help you out,so all the others are right.You'll find plenty of people who'll help answer any of your questions, etc.
Don't feel like your IQ's dropped either. Think everybody probably felt the same way when they started.It can be a little intimidating at first but it's not. You can use the search option up at the top here where it says help,search,members,calendar and find the good and the bad about any of the programs. People before me gave you great info.The only little thing I would add is it might be a good idea if you only have one email account to get another one and keep your personal emails in one and the sites emails in another. Yahoo,Hotmail,IWon,Myecom all have free ones.Good luck with any of the sites you join.

Hi,

I'm also very new to this as well. Just started about 2 weeks ago. Just start with a few low payout ones first, athough for some of them, the earnings seems very pathetic at first. Sign up for a few programs first for a few weeks and see how the earnings go. If it seems too slow, look out for others, because that's what I'm doing now. You can also pm me to find out more about this although I'm new. I'm very willing to help you, because like you, I'm also a newbie.
