    Anyone have experience working with them? I'm looking at moneyclick.in since it's very new, $13 for 1000 visits.

    What are you promoting there? You will not get a high conversion rate just people visiting you site to earn a few pennies..

    Go for ones that are bigger and older to expect any real results..
    Law of averages and all ;)

    I have been known to waste some time on PTC sites rather than succumb to an extra game of solitaire.

    On your own you will never make much of anything but the occasional pocket change. The one big secret to making any real income is to build a downline of referrals. That way you have the combined earnings of others added to your own efforts. I have seen some folk with a few dozen people below them make upwards of a couple hundred dollars a month.

    However, the plague that besets PTC sites is that so many of them are started for the purpose of collecting a bunch of "upgrade" fees and "referral" sales and then they disappear with all the cash.

    Of the legitimate one's that survive the test of time, you are looking at an average of about 60 cents an hour for your efforts without any downline to pump your earnings up.

    Beware of your newfound site there. The legitimate one's pay between 65-85 cents per 1000 views on pay to promote. $13 per thousand page views is totally unrealistic.

    Hope this helps...

    ptc sites are just waste of time most of them don't pay. Let me know which ptc sites really pay well and accept international users.

    There are a few, although like all such sites, they require building a downline to make any serious money at. The ones I have found that work can be found here: Paid to perform Cash Earning Overview

    I have yet to find a bux clone that isn't dodgy. Even the first one keeps changing the rules so much that I despair of ever getting my payout from them. The Advercash empire seems just as bad and are part of the reason PayPal won't work with them anymore. THEY say its PayPal. but there are several honest, well established PTC sites that don't have any problems!

    Hope this helps. :)

    paypal refuses to service PTC sites. So it's definitely paypal.

    Wrong. They are beginning to cut off all the new ones since so many are bogus, but I am in quite a few HONEST and ESTABLISHED programs that have no trouble at all sending payments by PayPal.

    Example: DonkeyMail and Sebas' other sites, GetPaidMail and No-Minimum - Never a problem.

    There are others but I will not name them here. As with so much of human nature, when someone gets caught doing the "dirty" they start screaming it was somebody else's fault! :rolleyes:

    bux.to is the most established and honest PTC site there is and they say so themselves that it's paypal. Just visit their forum. I've never even heard of Donkeymail and Sebas. :confused:

    Sebas Broekhof is located in the Netherlands. DonkeyMails is over three years old and has over 100,000 members. He and his partner have about a half dozen or so PTC and PTP sites now and not a one of them has any trouble using PayPal.

    Adbux and buxto on the other hand are only coming up on a year and have crashed, switched servers, lost credits (money) for their users and have switched their "rules" around almost as often as some people change their underwear.

    As for the "forum" you speak so glowingly of; I was about the 12th person to sign up in it. After a couple of months it was glaringly obvious that ANY negative remarks about them were being summarily deleted. (Yes, I experimented when a few users started complaining about this fact and it proved true.)

    Of course the guilty dog barks the loudest ... Caveat Emptor :rolleyes:

    This site seems biased.
    Your #1 site has a lot of complaints about it being a scam.
    Your youtube videos say "Sponsored by Bux.to", and you rate it #1.
    Something fishy there!
