PsTraffic, new Google AdSense report

Received a very fast payment from PsTraffic today and will be reupgrading.

I was doing some blog surfing today and came across a free report which may be useful to some. It's about Google AdSense and promotes a piece of software called the Google Cash Detective. Interesting, and free so it's worth a read. There are also a couple of free videos, which I haven't checked out due to my slow internet connection. They do sound like they may be worth checking out though. Anyways, this is a new report is from Chris Carpenter, the author of "Google Cash". The new report is called "Google Cash Strikes Back Special Report" and you can get it for free here.

Blogging payments

Nothing new other than received a couple payments from Blogitive, which seems to be working out pretty well. Payments are weekly into PayPal. Nice.
Need to look into Blogsvertise though. I did one offer which was approved, but haven't received any other offers. Not sure why. I do need to add a profile pic. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Swift-hits.net, Mrs.Vee's dirt, Drunk's tip

Latest from Swift-Hits.net:

Dear members:


Well the script Upgrade is complete.
We are now back online, and we have more advertising choices as well.


I must frist tell you that we have a new feature called "My Move ADS", This allows all members to advertise whatever they want such as the following:
Banners, text, text links,and link ads... The reason i thought this would be kool, as you pay for it with your "Credits" and not money. This option will show on the Scrolling thingy on the right in your members area.


There is also a option on "My Move ADS" that allows you to use a "Dynamic Image", but i have no clue what that is...YET!!..:)


Now there is one more thing that i have had added as well. There is something in the script called "Premium Site List" what this means is that, your site Will be the first one seen, when ever someones Surf. They will be required to click on a number to get off of that site after so many seconds of viewing it. ( like 20 seconds or something), so your site will be the first one seen by EVERYONE!
Major Exposure!


Now for the bad part:..lol
I am gonna charge a small fee to have the Premium Site Viewed..it wont be much! You know im like that!..:)


Example: If member #5 Wanted to purchase a premium site spot for 3 days it would costs that member $5.00 and if they wanted to purchase it for 7 days it would cost $10.00 ( Payments for premium sites will only be accepted thru Alertpay)


Other arrangements can be made as well.


Everyone have a good day!

Just e-mail me or contact me thru the "Contact page" if you wish to purchase a Premium Spot.


Check out Mrs.Vee's blog for the dirt on a few autosurf's. Gist of which is admins of long gone site's 13PercentSurf, Darrell Russell, and EpaySurf, Kent Black, are back, disguised as other people. They are running 11 & 13 Ads Daily and The new Private Ads Daily. Darrell is Mike and Kent is Ted. Kent is also running My Cash Forum, 24 Surf Monitor, & Pro Source Ads disguised as Robert “Fletcher”. Pretty screwed up.
I was in 13PercentSurf, but fortunately never upgraded. Free members did earn .13 a day for surfing. I had quite a bit built up, but never saw a penny. Just lost my time.

Check out Drunk's World for a useful tip on getting more traffic using StumbleUpon.

TrickleDownCash.net, Swift-hits.net

The latest from TrickleDownCash:

Just a few things to bring you up to date.


At last, we only have one site to run, this is so much better.


Andrea is currently going through the list of members to be paid both that are outstanding from last month, due to the missed surfing days being added, and this months pay, once she has finished doing this, she will send out an email to make sure, no-one has been missed, please wait for that email, before chasing for payment, it is in hand, you will be paid soon.


Sen, our programmer is working on the script, to sort out any tiny bugs. You should now be able to submit a website, upgrade, submit an abuse report, and see banners in the PTC area. He is now working on being able to change the settings, so that you can surf more sites, as many of you have rightly requested that. I have put some more banners in the PTC area, they are of traffic exchanges that work for us, together with an ebook on how to get the most out of traffic exchanges, if you use them.


There has been some concern among some of the members about upgrading with egold. I can understand your concerns however, I would like to re-assure you, that I have contacted egold myself, and have been told all is OK, however, if you would rather not upgrade with egold, but want to upgrade, you can if you wish, sign up to another account with us, and upgrade with alert pay, this is of course up to you, but you may feel safer doing this. You will need to surf both accounts to be paid.


Finally, I have updated our blog, and hope to do so again before the end of the week. If you post a comment, I will add the points you have gained towards your free upgrade, please see the terms for further details.


If I have missed anything out, or you have a query on the .com site only now, feel free to contact us, or if you have a problems with the .net site, please do let us know, so we can work on solving them, thank you.


Until next time.

Bob quits

Sorry for the lack of updates, but just haven't had anything new to talk about.
Have been busy checking out communities at MyBlogLog. Lots of good sites with good info.

The latest big news though is it looks like Bob at Tristar is finally calling it quits, check out Dolphin for the info.
Luckily I never joined any of his sites. Too much hype surrounding them.

Online form

If you have a website, chances are you might want to add an HTML form, such as an email form or contact form. For inexperienced web designers, this could be a huge task. Many people just use templates when building a website.
Well, there is a company called Forms4Free which can help website owners add an online form to their website. For free, they will help create the form. For a one time fee of $19.95, they will also provide a formmail file, which is a processing file that gets uploaded to the website. It will process the form and email the answers from the form to the webmaster. Forms4Free is probably one of the only sites on the web which provide a formmail file.
Formmail is important since it lets web site owners process forms through their site, rather than an outside service which uses it's own server. Many html form services take the user to a page full of advertisements after the form has been submitted. This can be confusing and look unprofessional.
If any problems are encountered once the formmail file has been paid for, Forms4Free will check the hosting setup and fix any problems it finds.

Blogitive, 17SurfPro

Another payment received from Blogitive.

The latest from 17SurfPro:

Hi Everyone!


It's now 5 months since I acquired 17SurfPro and despite a few small bugs during the past week or so, I am pleased to report that everything is going well. The 'bugs' resulting from a recent security upgrade have been fixed and we should be back to normal service today with payments for expired upgrades being made within 24-36 hours, usually sooner during weekdays.


Please check your accounts and if you think you have any payments outstanding for expired upgrades made before (and including) 23 April let me know.


When I acquired 17SurfPro I said that I would let the program settle down before making any changes and currently I see no reasons to make any further changes apart from those already made (the addition of AlertPay, for example) and the following two modifications which have made today:


The maximum number of upgrade units is increased to 300 ($3,000). This is the result of requests from a few members who have reached the maximum.


The account inactivity period is reduced from 30 days to 17 days. This means that free members who do not login for 17 days have their accounts deleted. This will help keep the database free of redundant accounts.


Thanks for your continued support!


Best regards

MyBizs scam

Looks like the paid email site MyBizs has turned scam. I requested payout April 18. Waited 2 weeks, nothing. Sent in a contact request and still nothing. Will be removing them from my paid email list.

Seems Mrs.Vee has dug up some interesting dirt on a bunch of autosurfs. No info yet though, so stay tuned.

Nothing else new to offer, so will cut this short.

Generation12, PsTraffic, paid to blog

The latest from Generation 12:
Update: May 08, 2007


AlertPay is now available for Deposits and Cashouts. Once you make a deposit with your AlertPay account, your AlertPay ID will be placed into your profile and you may request cashout to that account.


You may deposit with EGOLD and AlertPay.


Our Cashout System:


If you Deposit $100 with AlertPay, your cashouts to AlertPay May not exceed $120 total until another Deposit is made with AlertPay. The same is true with EGOLD. This will maintain the integrity of our accounts. Referral commissions will be available to the processor you have made the most deposits to. If you have $100 in deposits to AlertPay and $70 deposits to EGOLD, your referral commission will be available for withdraw to AlertPay.


*Remember: If you wish to add a AlertPay account to your profile you must make a deposit from that AlertPay account .


If you are only using only one processor with our program this will not apply to you.


Our Terms will be updated to reflect this.


Thank you for your support.

Received a very fast payment from PsTraffic and reupgraded.

My blog was approved at Blogsvertise. Received my first task, my last post, and am waiting on my post's approval. No tax info is required here to get paid, just a paypal account.
Am waiting for payment to clear at the other paid to blog site I am in, Blogitive. So far, paid blogging seems to be a pretty lucrative way to earn some extra money online.

Accept Credit Card Payments - AdvantageProcessors.com

When starting a real business, not a scam autosurf or hyip, but a legit business, it's common practice to accept credit card payments. It's probably not a very good sign when you come across a business which does not accept visa/mastercard.

Well, there is a company called AdvantageProcessors.com, which deals with internet merchant accounts. They provide merchants with their own merchant account, online credit card processing for Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, shopping cart links, a virtual terminal, and site enablement.

They offer competitive pricing and low credit card transaction rates. They offer merchant account rates for low risk card swipe processors and high risk Mail Order Telephone Order credit card processing. This includes high risk mail order credit card transactions. If interested in starting a business which will accept credit card payments, AdvantageProcessors.com might be worth looking into.

If unsatisfied with the service provided, AdvantageProcessors.com also offers penalty free cancellation.

My Random Downline, Generation12, Swift-Hits

Admin of MyRandomDownline have called it quits:
Dear MRD members,
As most of you are probably aware, interest in myrandomdownline has been waning since the first month. In fact, interest in the paid to surf and High yield has been waning for over a year now. Jason and myself were looking over facts and figures regarding the top get paid to forums out there and it speaks volumes as to the state of the make money world- TalkGold for instance is down nearly 20% in traffic over the past six months.
Obviously, the whole reason for myrandomdownline was to give people who have a hard time building a referral base a way to maximize their profit potential. The project hinged on building a huge subscribership in order for this to be effective. Given the current state of the get paid to world, we feel like this is just not going to happen. With such a small membership base, we feel like it is time to call this project a failure and move on to bigger and better things.
Anyone with a balance in MRD can still cash out. We will give you 7 days to do so before yanking the site from our server. The following sites will be shut down: myrandomdownline.com, npgforum.com, and everymansmonitor.com. For those of you who stuck with us, we appreciate you more than you will ever know.
Thanks for giving this site a shot.
Regards,
Leo and Jason

Too bad. I dropped out of MyRandomDownline after the first month as I didn't get any referrals and few clicks. I did like the forum though. I'm just not much of a forum poster as I just don't have the time.
Also check out Drunk's World for more info.


Generation 12 update:

I haven't yet, but plan on going back in. This time with just a minimum upgrade.

Swift-Hits.net update:
Dear Members:


Good evening members. I just wanted to keep you all up to date on how things are going. All of you know about problems that e-gold has been having and as of now the only way that this has effected swift-hits is that alert pay is not accepting money from e-gold. This means that the current members who have upgrades with alert pay may see a short delay in payouts. Do not worry I am working on making sure your payouts will happen. This will not effect e-gold users. Even if things stay the same with Alert pay (with them not accepting any money from e-gold) once all of the current upgrades expire things should be back to normal. Of course if any one has any concerns or specific questions then contact me and I will do my best to address your concerns. I basically just wanted to send this email and let everyone know that things are still going well.


I told everyone that i would always be upfront and honest with yall..so that being said..i think that's about it.


Do not be afraid to upgrade!..If you wish!
You all know i got yer backs! :)


Have a good afternoon!

17SurfPro, Americanamails

The latest from 17SurfPro:

Hi Everyone!


Upgrades are working again and AlertPay has been added as an alternative payment processor.


During the last day or so some extra security updates have been added to the script and one of the side issues was that the upgrade process did not work for a short time. That has been fixed.


In response to several members asking for an alternative payment processor I have added AlertPay. I am still looking at other possibilities but as I already use AlertPay at Surf7Daily it was the most practical one to add. Both AlertPay and e-Gold upgrades can be made on the same account - you will be paid to the payment processor used to make the upgrade.


Currently I have no plans to stop using e-Gold, I still see this as the main payment processor for 17SurfPro.


Best regards

So far I'm not impressed with this one and wish I had held off on upgrading. At least it was only a couple dollars.

It looks like the PTC site MyBizs may not be paying. I requested payout on April 18. So far nothing. I sent in a contact request today, but no response yet.

To replace it, I have joined PecoMail. Just joined today, so I don't know how it is yet. Here's some info:

Free To Join!
.50¢ Payout Via Paypal, $1.00 Payout Via Alertpay
Gift Cards and Money Order (Restrictions Apply)
Automatic Payout Monthly!
1000 Points Signup Bonus to use for Advertising!
Win a Gardenia Scented Bath Set
All E-Mails & PTC 1/10 - 2 Cent(s)
Points Only to those who want them!

There's a site called BeenPaid, which gives info on which PTC sites are paying & which are scams. They have an awards section - diamond, gold and platinum seals. Awards are given based on the site's paying status and longevity. PecoMail received a diamond seal which means it has been paying for 2+ years.

17SurfPro, ClixSense

Payment received from 17SurfPro and will be reupgrading.

ClixSense update:

Paychecks
ClixSense.com members have earned over $61,000.00 and checks have been mailed! If you were due a payment, your monthly paycheck has been mailed. You will notice that the previous balance has been removed from your account. If you did not meet the payout level you specified, your account balance has been carried forward and remains in your ClixSense.com account.

Why Checks?
Some members ask why we will not make payments other than by check. The reason for check only payments is to combat fraud and guarantee our advertisers qaulity visitors. Using an online payment processor to pay your earnings simply allows dishonest individuals to open multiple accounts. Members who would have the opportunity to open multiple accounts would rob the advertisers of their advertising budget, as well as robs the "surfers" of clix and earnings that would be available had the multiple account persons not robbed them of it. While we understand that some still will not understand the reasoning behind this, just take a look at the other programs out there which have copied our business model and offering payments by e-processors. Most have already failed, and others are not far behind. ClixSense.com uses a sensible business model to insure our advertisers get what they pay for, and our surfers are paid their earnings.

Posting copies of your Paycheck on the web:
We understand that others want to see proof of your payment from ClixSense.com because they are skeptical of such a great program which rewards both advertisers and surfers alike. Feel free to post copies of your paycheck but we must require that you black out the bank account number (printed across bottom check) and company signature. There are those out there who misuse that information.

ClixSense.com is very excited about the great feedback we are receiving. Thanks for making us the number one advertising alternative!

Thank you,
ClixSense.com


I've been slacking off with ClixSense, but have now gotten back into and should receive payment next month. It is by far the best PTC site I've used so far. Free to join, free to earn, get paid at $10. The paid clicks add up really fast. Minimum clicks are a penny, but I've also seen ones up to 2, 4, and 5 cents.

Generation12, Solid Trust, Bush vetoes war spending bill

Generation 12 is issuing refunds if you're not in profit and is restarting. Check out Yeepage's blog for the full info. For some reason I never received that email. Could be in the spam folder though.

Don't forget, today is surf-n-earn day at Solid Trust.

Check out Drunk's World for a rant on boredom in the hyip/surf world. I totally feel the same way and need to look more into other opportunites. Affiliate programs, blogging and google adsense seem to be the best bet so far. PTC's, such as ClixSense, are good for pocket change.

Dolphin has some comments about the US government, which I also agree, especially since receiving this update from cnn: President Bush vetoes a war spending bill which includes a timetable for withdrawing troops from Iraq, the White House announces.
How soon before the next election?
Obviously not soon enough.

Generation12, e-gold

Update from Generation 12:

Just a quick update. We are not closing the Generation site and we are not going to stop using E-Gold. We are however going to add some payment processors. I think this will be good for members because it will give them a choice. I know E-Gold has weathered storms in the past and I am sure this one will be no different. I will be making changes to the cashout policy. Nothing big, but necessary. I will send out another update this evening on our scripting process.
