About WordLinx

I really like WordLinx as a source of extra income. I joined the site in late 2006 and have just now requested a 5th payout for a total of $50.15 in extra cash so far! This site has been around since 2003, if you can believe that! A paid to click site that pays one cent per ad viewed, has actually been around for more than a few months, and has shown their dependability with timely paypal payouts. Let me tell you, that combination is pretty hard to find. Every time I have requested payout, I have received the money in my paypal account within 24 hours. WordLinx is definately worth checking more than a few times each day too. Just like ClixSense, the more often you check the site, the more ads you might find, even if it's only a few new ones each time. I took a look at my history of payouts with WordLinx and I'm pretty happy with averaging 3 payouts each year. Check out my screen shot and you can see that this time it took me just 3 months to reach the low $10 minimum.



I don't know about you, but when I get really close to reaching the minimum, I check the site a lot more often than normal. I was surprised to see so many ads today because, when I went to bed last night I still had about 10 cents before I would reach the minimum. Before I was done, I was 11 cents over. Not bad for one day!

I have a decent downline at WordLinx, but like ClixSense, WordLinx doesn't pay much for your downlines activity, but they do give you a small percentage (5%). Most of the $50 I have earned was from my own activity, but my 50 referrals have contributed almost $6 so it helps over time. Looking at my referral stats, my referrals have earned over $377 between them!

This is actually a good thing for advertisers because it keeps the prices low without jeopardizing the sites long term success and it's ability to pay it's members. This is one of the few paid to click sites that have a business model that actually works and as you'll see below, the prices are reasonable and provide the income to keep this site around for a long time.



If you'd like to start earning some extra cash with WordLinx, I hope you'll join my team by joining here. If you'd like to advertise your opportunity on WordLinx, please visit here. Your ad will be posted and available to our viewers as soon as you pay for the ad. I can tell you from experience that the conversion rate is very good.

A Good International paid to read site

I was asked for a recommendation for a good international PTR that actually pays and doesn't cost anything to join......

and they also wanted to know: How important is it to get referrals for ptr/ptc sites?

Because so many of my international friends have been asking me pretty much the same thing, I wanted to share my response with you, in case you were also curious about this subject.

This was my Response:
I find that having referrals for my various paid to programs can be very helpful. I looked through my programs for an international one to show you how getting referrals can really help when they're active. The one I found to best illustrate my point is e-mailpaysu. I will tell you first, that it does take time to build up to the various minimums for some programs. Having referrals can definately make it easier to reach them a little faster. I spent the first 3 years reading emails there with only 3 referrals before deciding it would be worth it to upgrade. This was one of the first sites that I bought the lifetime gold upgrade for, when another of my paid to sites paid me, and I have to say it was worth EVERY dime of the $15 (now $18) I paid for it! Even though I'm promoting it on my various free traffic exchanges now, it's nice to have them still giving me free referrals from their advertising too.

Now For the Example:
In E-mailpaysu, I signed up July 15 2001, the last stats I had before reaching my first minimum payout in mid 2006 consisted of :

$11.19 from the paid to click the penny page
$8.23 in converted points (with 3121 pending)
$23.41 in paid emails
$10.00 signup bonus

My balance $52.83 (at the time) was helped greatly by my downline earnings. Looking at the paid to read emails, I only read 76 emails for $1.52 in about 5 years as the 2c emails are rare. However, I receive 1c for each email read by 2 levels of referrals. The rest of the paid email amount came from my 2 levels of referrals. My 1st level (direct refs) read 174 emails for $1.74. My second level (my refs refs) read 2015 emails for $20.15!

***I currently have 62 direct refs & 311 second level refs and earn 1 cent for each email read by all 373! (Current referral stats: http://apaidreader.googlepages.com/EMPUrefs.jpg )

***My total earnings with this site has now exceeded $148.11 with $107.77 in actual payouts.

This is my most recent stats screen to show you how the earnings have accumulated since my last payout request: (Current earnings: http://apaidreader.googlepages.com/empuStats.jpg )

This is not a get rich overnight site, by any means. Like I said, it takes time to build up, but I was only doing this site when I had some spare time after work or on the weekends. Quite often I would forget to do anything except the paid emails when I got them in my mailbox. This is a site that lets you earn in a variety of ways so you can probably reach payout a lot faster than I did, but it wasn't until after I received my first check, then a paypal deposit that I felt comfortable in sharing it as a site that really does pay. I have to admit to being a much more active member there now too. I would definately recommend this site to everyone even as a free member because this one is definately worth waiting for because they DO PAY!

I would also like to pass along something else that's important to know. There isn't a "request payout" button there like with some of the newer paid to read sites. When you're ready to cashout (after reaching the minimum) just send an email request to Gerald Peters the wm. At that point he will usually ask you for your choice of payment option. I have received both a check and a paypal deposit. It is also important to note that the first payout is at $50 for free members but the payouts after that are lowered to $15. The paid with points minimum is only $10 and you can redeem your ads for cash balance for your own ads, starting at just $2.00.
