This section of the GPT industry operates in the same way as the PTC sections in the sites you are already a member of, there are a few differences though. You will need to visit the site to click the links, they are still 24 hour unique but, some of the busier sites will deliver all of the clicks to the ad in a very short while, and the stable and established ones will be adding links throughout the day, so you may wish to visit more than once a day if you have time.

The most important aspect with this section of the industry is that there is a big influx of new sites every week. The PTC section of the industry is a lot more unstable than PTR, with many of the new sites offering links worth 3 or 4 times the value of an ordinary paid email ad. As a result they are lasting, in some cases, only a few weeks. Members and outside advertisers are going to compare prices of advertising within different sites, and different types of sites. As a result the owners of these types of sites find it very difficult to attract advertisers. If they have no ads, members will go elsewhere, it they have no members then advertisers will find that there advert will take a very long time to get the number of visits they have paid for. In that case, they too will go elsewhere. So no members and no advertisers means that the site goes out of business taking all members earnings with them. So again, you need to research the sites you are thinking about joining. Even with research, you can join a site that you have seen the members stating they have been paid multiple times, but by the time you reach payout, because of the reasons above, it has gone out of business and you have lost all earnings accrued up to that point.

This is also an area of the industry where the selling and buying of referrals is prevalent, I covered the benefits and pitfalls of this in stage 9. Please remember that although many people buy sets of referrals and make a large profit doing so, many more, buy referrals and unfortunately they lose money in doing so. Research of every site before you join is of the up most importance and it is no different here either. The problem in this section of the industry is a great percentage of the programs are new and therefore have no history at all to check. I will be covering this in greater detail later, but a lot of people now dismiss the Paid To Click section of the industry altogether because of the instability caused by new sites appearing every week, and then failing within six months.

Another thing to keep in mind with this section of the industry is that the average payout request is $10.00, so if you do not have a large down-line then there is the very real possibility that the site will close down before you reach payout. You might try and avoid that by joining low payout sites, but then you have to realize that most of them started out with low payout limits, but as they started failing, gradually began, raising the limits, again, if you have no down-line there is a chance that the payout limit will rise before you have even reached the original, lower limit.

Another cause for concern is a worrying trend that has started to occur, in which a new site will make one or two rounds of payments, the people that receive these payments will then have the confidence to start recruiting new members, as they now have proof of payment. Prospective members see that people are being paid and they will join. This larger member base now allows them to bring in bigger additional advertisers. At this stage members are now also buying ads as they have confidence in the site, other members start buying referrals, again because confidence is high, it is at this time that the program disappears after receiving this large influx of payments from members and advertisers. So this area of the industry, at the present time, warrants careful research and consideration when looking for new sites to join
