    ya PTC are of no use. They are only waste of time, 99% of them are not gonna pay either.

    Most of ptc sites are scam. I'm a member of some ptc sites and they don't pay me. Although some of them also pay me but only once or twice and they said the site is down.

    Clicking for pennies, yea that sounds like a great way to earn!

    Seriously, don't touch them. They are useless. As mentioned, hardly any of them will actually pay you.

    And most require you to a reach a minimum payout of $20 or more. And you only get 5-10 ads to click a day that are worth a whole penny each!

    You do the math.

    Like said before, useless.
    Most are scams.
    I was using one once, minimum payout was $5.
    I clicked and clicked for several weeks, got to $4.90, tried to log on the next to day to do some more clicks and cash out, I was IP ban for no reason.

    Avoid them.

    Advertising in search engines are wasting $$$$ unless you run a larg corp and needs branding. Pretty hard to start for beginners.

    Totally waste of time. Most people who tell you they are worth it have some way they are gaining from your clicking so they cannot be trusted.

    just calculate the time spent on ptc and think what u can do with that time. you will realize its a waste of time. But if you have some automated tools then it can work for you.

    Avoid them like a plague! They butter you up in the beginning by promising sign up cash and give you loads of ads to see but after a few weeks and no where near your minimum target you hear nothing from them.

    Ive been told three times that I keep changing my email address and they cant reach me on it, even though its the same email address ive been using most my life!

    the same to me, but in face it`s hard, you must choose right site and right keywords and good ads words, or waste your money

    You can use traffic exchanges when your website/blog is new to get subscribers. It's the worst way to make money, although not so bad for generating mailing list.

    ppc can help you increase the traffic.But traffic is not everything.You should still have a good business idea and quality website
    and exceptional service,then it will be very easy for you to make money.But sometimes,you should keep on thinking how to be
    different with you competitors.It really matters.

    Don't waste your time on these stuff. I used to get up early in the morning everyday and click on links hoping to get good amount per click. After the payout period came ( 6 months ), I eagerly waited for the check but it has not come as of now ( 3 years ).

    Based on my personal experience, I would like to say that it is just a wastage of time.
