Method: PTC

Brief History

 

This site hasn’t been around for a long time but within the short time it has it has already made quite an impact on the industry. This is because the site is purely very different from other PTC sites. The script in use isn’t easy to identify and instead of just using payment processors you can use your card directly for referral purchases for example. The site is visible on the Alexa chart and shows a rapid rate of growing popularity which is not starting to stabilize.

 

Design

Although the layout is typical of any PTC site the sites does hold a unique design with a good professional corporate ID. If you were to compare this site to any known script it may be more similar to the YourOwnBux script in which case they better have good security. In keeping with the unique design is the use of photography which isn’t used so much on most PTC sites. This can often help as it provides the user with a more human element on their first view of the site.

Advertising

The advertising area comes with two pages one is for learning about advertising with them and the other for pushing but after reading both pages I fail to see why they are not both on the same page. The advertising prices are average for the sites popularity with 1000 views for $14.99 and 2500 views for $36.99. The value does not get better as the packages become greater which means the site is missing out on some high end profits without having their greater deals more attractive than their smaller ones.

Referral system

Here you have full control over how many sets of referrals you want by typing in your desired amount. Each set here contains 10 referrals and you can either buy standard referral members or premium. A set of standard is $14.99 per set where as the premium are £21.99 per set. This is a good unique system in place for purchasing referrals and it even tells you how many standard or premium un-referred members are available at point of purchase.

Upgrades

There are 3 upgrade packages here ranging from 1 month, 6 months and 1 year durations. All the packages hold the same benefits which are $0.015 per click and 100% commission per referral click. Priority payments are also promised but nothing stated here as to what the payment wait is. One major reward to upgrading here is you get a whopping $5.00 every time your referrals upgrade to premium and $2.00 every time your purchase referrals. This is one of the biggest incentives we have seen so far for an upgrade.

For a month the package is $4.99, 6 months is $19.99 and a year is $34.99. This is a very rewarding premium package for the price.

Performance

We found 5 $0.01 ads to click when testing this sites incentives area. Along with a PTC area they also have a PTS section where you can earn up to $0.80 per sign up. The down line is reported to be 100% for standard members but this may have changed since the premium offer shows only 100% on referral earnings.

Conclusion

The great thing about this site is that it is different. The script is different and the features involved are not commonly found else where. There is no other upgrade package we have found else where that provides you with so much freedom with the referral purchases. The upgrade package itself provides some bold rewards such as $5.00 per referral that upgrades. It will be interested to see where this site is in a few weeks to see if they can sustain such an incentive program.
