Chapter 2 - Referrals
PTC Industry turned to a total scam mostly because of referrals. "Tell your friends and earn more" is the slogan. Yeah, right...
Ref bonus is 50-100% in most sites and it is very high of course. Ref bonus shouldn't be more than 30%, average 5-10%. Yes 5% ref bonus. It is very low, but very sustainable. Don't forget, we are talking about Paid To CLICK, not Paid To REFER.
A site which pays $0.01 per click, in total pays to its members $15-20/1000 clicks. Already we explained why advertisers will not pay more than $1/1000 for PTC traffic. Self sponsored ads is the only way and...
How owner earns money then?
Simple answer, very simple: Bots and premium memberships. I really wonder why a PTC has a "premium" membership option. Higher rates and more self sponsored ads are the benefits of premium membership. But why? Can you tell me a good reason?
Bot referrals = Fake referrals = Robots which will give you a few clicks and then stop OR Robots which will be very active and will give to member virtual profit and to site huge debts.
Don't expect profit of course. In case #1 it is obvious that member will not have profit. In case #2 the result is a huge debt for site. Only a few lucky (and probably *** kissing) members will be paid, before site dies.
Why bots will not give you profit?
Bots don't click ads usually, because there is no reason to click: Almost all ads are... self-sponsored! Also owners, if are not fool enough, will not cheat the few advertisers they may have. Average price is $1/bot and usually this is the only income owner has from a bot. Since bots don't click on ads, there are no extra earnings from advertisers (if any). Income for site from bots is only the $1 members are paying per bot. If a bot is very active site will have loss. That's why in most cases bots will stop before the $1 limit, user will lose money not site.
Some retards (read below) do not have problem if their refs are bots! Bots are very active at the beginning. But after a few days, bots are "dying", sometimes all of them at the same day!
Owners have everyday available lots of 500 ref packs for sale. PTC sites with millions - according to their stats - of members, in their forums have only a few thousands registered members (bots don't talk obviously). Best example is bux.to: 12+ million members in main site and... ~65.000 in forums! (stats taken on August-2008)
Some admins admitted that only the 10-20% of their members are unreferred. Most members are registering following a ref link (downline builder, ref deals/exchanges/from a blog etc). How is it possible then, for a site with a few thousands members for example to have everyday plenty of 500 ref packs available?
Have a look at these screenshots (will open in a new tab):
Bots Pic 1 (admin of crewbux)
Bots Pic 2 (taketheglobe index - bot scripts)
Bots Pic 3 (timebux index - bot scripts)
Bots Pic 4 (reliableclix - lol, very reliable - hacked admin panel)
Bots Pic 5 (07bux - was using same script with bux.to - hacked admin panel)
Bots Pic 6 (taketheglobe - hacked admin panel)
How can I understand if a site sells bots?
Almost all PTC sites with "buy/rent refs option" are selling bots. Some sites may not sell bots, but are using other ponzi tricks such as multiple upline & split clicks. For example if a ref clicks 4 ads/day, 2 ads will be given to upline no1 and 2 to upline no2 etc.
If you want to buy referrals better burn your money. At least, fire will warm you!
Since most PTC sites are running with self sponsored ads, bots are unavoidable. To make it more clear: All PTC sites with "buy/rent refs option" are selling bots or are using other ponzi tricks.
Even and one of the biggest PTC sites, neobux.com sells rents bots. A smart bot script and smarter administrative team guarantee that most users will not understand that their refs are bots. The fact that ref names are masked is one important clue: Neobux admin does not want users to know the real names of their rented refs, because some of them may try to google the names and see if are real humans. Most standard members do not have profit from rented refs and some golden members are complaining too. Also many members (golden + std) do not know - their fault of course - that clicking all ads is necessary to receive ref clicks. Renting, recycling, golden upgrade packs (diamond, ultimate etc) will bring much more money than just selling refs and simple premium memberships. But most members will view just the 4 self sponsored ads/day... Officially of course the word "bots" is unknown for neobux, but for a strange reason well known scammers - bot sellers, are being tolerated (supported?) and investing there stolen "ptc" money!
