ClixSense, Traffic Exchanges & PageSwirl

I updated my new ClixSense page again since it's time for another payout. Things have progressed very well since my last update so I'm very happy to say my next payout will be the best one yet. I have reached my first $100 payout with ClixSense and I couldn't be more pleased with the success of my new page. You can expect to see a new payout proof within the next 10 days or so since ClixSense pays at the beginning of the month.



I'm updating the blog today because I was pleasantly surprised by other successes I have noticed today. On the new page I have my various traffic resources for my downline members to join as needed. Some of the exchanges I belong to are only used when I have a specific campaign to run. Like updating my ClixSense page. When I have to change my promotion URL I just make my changes to various traffic exchanges for the link I want visitors to. As long as I surf that exchange I get traffic to my preferred page. Since many of the traffic exchanges also give you free traffic when you get referrals & more when they surf, the traffic credits can really build up.

Over the last two months that I have been working on the new page I haven't had the time to update all my traffic exchanges to the new ClixSense page and have only been adding a few at a time as I can. Today I have updated Traffic Syndicate 25 (TC25) and TopSurfer and was truely amazed at the traffic I had available for my use.

In TS25 I had just over 1000 traffic credits and over 6000 mechant exchange credits to assign as needed. This is over 1200 page views in an exchange I haven't used much in over 3 months. In TrafficSurfer I had over 13,000 page views ready for use.

For those that think free traffic exchanges don't work, this should be an eye opener. Utilize the power of these free traffic exchanges and let your downline work for you. Use some of your free traffic credits to also promote your referral links to the free traiif exchanges you decide to use. Building this downline can be as important as the downline you want to build in your ClixSense referral program.

If you really want to kick it up a notch, use a free traffic tool like PageSwirl. This has been a very useful tool that has allowed me to stay active in quite a few exchanges even when my free time is very limited. This tool will allow you to promote the sites you want to promote, your collection of traffic exchange referral links with one URL, and you can use this same information to use your exchanges start page link to earn extra traffic every time you open your browser if you set it up right. If you really want to earn more with ClixSense or any other paid to program you want to promote, I highly recommend adding PageSwirl to your collection of marketing tools.

ClixSense Update

I continue to be amazed by my earnings at ClixSense. A $10 a year program has allowed me to create an ongoing income source. To date I have deposited a grand total of $749.49 in the 37 months since joining. It has taken some time to build a downline but the referral program with this company is excellent for the upgraded member. A recent change now allows upgraded members to earn from a total of 8 levels now.

I still haven't seen much response to my MyLot post asking members to report in earnings increases since the change. As far as my personal earnings go, I continue to see $1 upgrade commissions credited to my account many times thru the month even though some of my personal referrals have been deleted for inactivity. My direct referral count is down to 15 now but I still earned over $25 in referral earnings. I had over $34 in my account by the end of March. I know that doesn't sound like much but I did just get paid at the beginning of March, lol.

I have decided to continue on with my goal of saving extra money from the check fee so I have set my payout minimum to $100 again and hope to have the patience to wait 3 months for the next payout. So far it looks like the next check could be a good one too.

I had to do some work on my ClixSense promotional page. GooglePages are now being converted to the new sites so many of my links were broken. If you happen to find onje that still doesn't work, please let me know. I had so much information in my pages it has taken awhile to get things working correctly again.

ClixSense Payout #29

Yesterday I received my 29th payout from ClixSense and it's the biggest one yet!



My New Years Resolution was to work on patience. I decided to wait 3 months before requesting payout so I could let the balance build and to reduce the check fee. Well after the 3 month wait I was quite surprised at how well my balance grew. Not only was this my biggest check to date, I also saved myself $6 in check fees.

SendEarnings

Tonight I reached the minimum to request my first payout from SendEarnings. This is among the select few paid to read sites that pays nicely for reading their emails. The $5 signup bonus they started me with has helped reach the $30 minimum but finally, tonight, I now have enough to test their payout turn around time. The site has a net 30 day policy for payouts according to their terms.

"Check payments are processed on a Net-30 payment schedule. For example, if you request payment any day in the month of January, your payment is processed on March 1st. If the first of the month falls on a weekend or national holiday, payments are processed on the next working business day."

This is similar to the terms at their sister company InBoxdollars. Since I have had a very good payout history with them I was willing to test this one too. Since there are a few more days in this month I will wait a few more days to get as many extra emails as I can to increase my payout by a few more cents. I intend to request payout on Sunday 11/29/09 to see exactly how long the process takes. Based on the terms they probably won't cut the check until January but I anticipate having it by no later than mid January. (Requested payout 11/28/2009. Estimated date they cut the check is 1/4/2010) Here's the payout request page I took a pic of:



If you're interested in checking it out as a site that can help you earn some extra cash online, this one won't cost anything to join. If you're a US member you'll even get a $5 signup bonus to help get you started. Check it out below.

WordLinx Update

It's been awhile since I have updated my blog. Haven't had as much time since going back to work. Since I was looking over my payout history at WordLinx tonight I'd thought I'd get the updates started with them.

WordLinx remains a reliable paid to click site to earn from. Have seen some additional earnings from my downline but most seem to be inactive recently. My earnings remain pretty consistant since joining in 2006. So far I have managed to reach the $10 minimum 3 times each year for what is usually only minutes of my time each day. I'm still checking the site at least 3-4 times each day and the earnings have continued to grow. I'm including a few snapshots to illustrate potential earnings if you decide to check out this site to help you earn some extra cash online.



As you can see I have 60 referrals now, When my referrals are active and viewing ads I get a small percentage of their earnings (5%). This, along with advertising purchases, signup and upgrade bonuses was enough to request an extra payout above the earnings I gained by viewing ads and reading emails.



This one shows my personal earnings for reading their paid emails and clicking links on the site. As you can see, the earnings just continue to improve. Next is my favorite. This is the payment history page. Since signing up in 2006 I have managed to earn enough for 3 payouts each year with just a few minutes of effort each day.



Every time I have requested payout I have received it in my PayPal account within days. This site remains among my favorite paid to click sites with fast payments like these. Mark this one as a keeper!

A Good International Paid to Read emails site (PTR)

I was recently asked for a recommendation for a good international PTR that actually pays and doesn't cost anything to join...... and my friends also wanted to know, "Is it really important to have some referrals backing you up in any paid to site?"

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


This was my Resonse:
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 payout in October of 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 92 direct refs & 467 second level refs and earn 1 cent for each email read by all 559! I have already been paid $163.95, my most recent payment was November 2008 and my balance is currently over $15 at the time of this submission. (3/8/09)

My Payout Proofs

This is not a get rich overnight site, by any means, I've been a member for almost 7 years. 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, even though their paid to click page only takes a few minutes each day. 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. It wasn't until after I received my first check, and now two paypal deposits that I felt comfortable in sharing it as a long term 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 since 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 webmaster. At that point he will usually ask you for your choice of payment option. I have received both a check and 2 paypal deposits already. 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. If you decide to spend $18 for the lifetime gold upgrade, your downline will grow even if you don't know how to or don't want to promote your referral link.

Delays or Payouts?

If you're looking for an easy way to make some extra money online, you may have noticed that alot of paid to click sites have been experiencing delays on their payouts. Even some of the sites that originally offered fast payouts have been changing their terms recently and the delays just keep getting longer.

If you're tired of delays, and just want to get the payouts for your efforts, I highly recommend that you try out ClixSense. I've been a member of ClixSense since the end of February 2007 and have already been paid 16 times. ClixSense pays at the beginning of every month that you reach your selected minimum by the end of the previous month. (payout proofs)

In the last two months I haven't been as active as usual, due to my grandmothers declining health and eventual death, (the week after Hurricane Ike hit our coast). With the low $10 payout minimum at ClixSense, I still received a check for the last two months. While it wasn't as much as some of my previous checks, it was really nice to have some extra money in my mailbox when I got home.

Whether you're new to "get paid" sites or not, believe me when I tell you that this one is worth the effort. No Delays, just Payouts! If you're interested in finding out more about ClixSense and how I earned my upgrade, please click on the payout proof link above to visit my ClixSense page. Join me at ClixSense and I'll show you how to earn an upgrade with no out of pocket costs. I've even included links to my free traffic resources to help anyone that signs up under me get the tools they need to improve their success. By working together we can all make some extra money in our spare time.
