Paid to read email and click on ads

    I don't know if this is the right place to post this. I've been considering setting up a UK website that sends out "paid emails" and that pays people to click on ads. We don't seem to have too many of these in the UK but I'm at a loss as to where to begin. Has anyone had experience of setting up this type of website and does it pay?

    yes you can download free scripts if you want to start basic but i don't think that will get you too far, those sites don't really pay too good and most of them i've tried have gone down with the exception of treasure trooper, probably because the owners weren't making enough money

    Don't do it or I will presonaly see to it that Google never looks at you again. I have a list of sites I have had banned because of this and google finds them as well. They are very good.

    Ok so I am a wee bit confused than. What about those websites like Mypoints.com. You read their ads and click on the ad that will take you back to their main site. I know I am relatively new to this as well. But I do not see how some can get bannned. And others are not.

    Btw - I do not run such a site either. But just curious about this matter for I have seen people ask about such a subject.

    I would suggest, do what you want to, try things and dont be afraid of people that say they try to get your sites banned, mostly these are people that dont have really successful websites, therefore have lots of time and try to be the googlecops since they dont have an real job that keeps them busy.

    So just try things out to be successfull and dont be afraid.

    Whats the reason to click on the ads if you are not interested in ad?

    Shouldn't one be sued for cheating/fraud? :)

    What does this have to do with Google? I wasn't intending to put AdSense on the website? The kind of site I was thinking of was where people get paid to click on ads. There's nothing illegal or underhand about it. Take a look at a site like Archerfish.co.uk. The webmaster is paid to display the ad banners along with the amount that people will get paid if they cick on the ads. People sign up to the site and visit daily to click on the ads. When the visitors have accumulated enough in their accounts they can redeem the money they've earned.
    There are also several sites like Kelkoo who pay for people to visit and make searches. You can find any number of these in the "reward" sites on the internet.

    See above. Who mentioned Google?

    What is fraudulent about one webmaster paying another webmaster to display an ad and asking that webmaster to pay people to click on the ad?

    This guys advice is known to be bull. He is a spammer who is trying to find a hole to hid in.


    You don't click ads unless your interested. Not for money or to support the site.


    Sounds like foolishness to me. Sounds like your clicking ads but thats all. No one is planning on buying service or products or even going to the site just clicking the ad.

    I think such programs such as mypoints, fushion and ezyrewards all understand this point/took this in as a factor when they started there programs. If thats is what type of program Trish is asking about.

    And I am sure you are right maybe he is trying to find a hole in such incentives but isnt that what development is about. Niche sites.

    And I do have to agree with Trish on the first post. Google or asking people to click on any adsense ads were not mentioned.

    Hey,

    If your genuinely serious about making money online, for me personally I wouldn't run the risk. There are allot of other easier ways to make money on the net.

    If your interested in a new way of generating some ethical money check out my thread further down the page or click on the link in my signature. Honestly you sound like a genuine person with an idea that just needs to be birthed in a way that is beneficial to everyone.

    Eliminating risk is one key to success.
