MrTenPercent, Martin, Surveys

So, MrTenPercent is finished:


It is with regret that I have to inform you all that mrtenpercent.com will not be returning.


It would not be financially a sound proposition to invest the required amount into the site to enable current payout requests to be made and enough for investments to ensure that future payout requests could be met. Around $80,000 minimum investment would be required for a return of an estimated 5% of turnover of $350,000 to $400,000 it would take an estimated 4 years just to stand still.


After paying programmers, admin, hosting etc. there is currently very little left that is not invested.


Currently we will not be paying out to members until we find out what investments will be paying to us. Then we will try to embark on a refund program but this could be many months in the making. We always have, and always will, tell it like it is. There is no point in lying to you and telling you next month everything will be OK because we are NOT going to be reopening the site like scammers do to try to milk some more money out of you. THE SITE STAYS DOWN.


You will be contacted in the future with more information but for now we ask you to sit tight.


Many members may decide to try going to E-Gold. That IS your right to do so if you wish but the E-gold account that you paid us to is NOT the account we made investments from so getting that account frozen will not help anyone although what would be the point as there is no money in there anyway. When and if we get paid from the investments we still have left it wil be paid to a different E-gold account and when you get a refund it will be from a different E-gold account (directly from the investment account).


Until then I will wish you well and good fortune in whatever direction you decide to go.

Thanks hackers. That really worked out well, didn't it. You losers.

Remember Martin of the 12by12daily forum. He sent out an email a few months ago, basically promoting his new money making website. Well, I got another email from him today. He made it sound like he actually knows me. Sorry Martin, I'm not going to even check out your site. You & Dave are scammers. He stole members money and you stole members email addresses. I don't want anything to do with either one of you.


Check out Drunksworld for a link to a survey site with some good free information.
Surveys are a good way to earn a little pocket change. I've been paid lots of times by a bunch of different ones. Somehow I even got on a list to test products at home for Johnson & Johnson. One product paid $50. That was pretty cool.

TopGunTraffic, TrickleDownCash, 17SurfPro, MrTenPercent

Well, it looks like I should have gotten out of TopGunTraffic after my last payment. The site is no longer coming up and there has been no communication from the admin. Oh well, at least I only lost $1.

TrickleDownCash is moving to it's new server today, so there may be some downtime. This site and 17SurfPro are about the only recommended sites at the moment. MrTenPercent is also a good bet, but I advise caution due to the recent hacking. They seem to have pulled through it ok though.

The latest from MrTenPercent:

18 Mar. We had some DDOS attack last night but have stopped it.


Don't ask me HOW we stopped it, getting that technical is beyond me and I leave that to the techies.


If you experienced any down time this is why.


Negotiations with an INC company have broken down
(not enough safe guards in place to protect the members and we are not about to abandon our loyal members). The
only reason this was considered in the first place is that WE were approached by the INC company. We were not LOOKING
to sell but wanted to see what the offer consisted of. NOW we know what we are worth, a high five figure sum!!!


Things are back to normal and we move on.


E-gold is still VERY slow at times and sometimes we cannot connect at all. When we do get in we bang out a load of pay outs and sometimes have to catch up on the paperwork later (adjusting members balances etc.) so if you get a payout and find your account is wrong do not panic as this will be adjusted within a few hours max.


EVERTHING is done MANUALLY as we do not trust autopayout scripts. We check your earnings, your surfings, our E-Gold account history to make sure you did pay us, your E-gold account number etc., etc. It all takes some time and THEN we have to pay you and make all the necessary adjustments to accounts. This is to ensure that there is no attempt at cheating (believe me some members try everything even paying us in YEN!)


More news later.

This is the following message on the site's front page:

Hacked by BRAIN.


If you are the admin contact

YOU KNOW WHO!

YOU WERE WARNED I WOULD GET IN!

YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT SO JUST PAY IT



and the login boxes are missing, login link doesn't work either, so it doesn't look like things are under control yet.


Update: MrTenPercent is back to normal. You can now login and surf.

MrTenPercent, ClixSense, Henry Gold - increase traffic to your blog

Here's the latest from MrTenPercent on the buy out:

A few members have expressed concern over the possible business deal being offered.


At this stage I can only say that it is NOTHING to do with Tristar or BOB.


It is a LEGITIMATE company and I would not deal with anything less. I will want to protect the members interests as much as possible but it would not be in the interests of the company taking over (IF IT SHOULD HAPPEN)to do anything less that what we have been doing all along. Why change anything that is working?


We are the only "forever" site to last beyond 6 months (as far as we are aware) and still be paying. That is because we have investments (some of them not always brilliant - 12by12daily!). It is also because we tell our members everthing that is happening. We COMMUNICATE.


More news after the weekend.

And the latest from ClixSense:

Wow! What an incredible start for ClixSense.com. As most of you know, ClixSense.com began operations only a couple of weeks ago. Already our members have earned over $16,000.00!! You get paid for visiting advertisers web pages, referring other members who upgrade, and on ads placed by anyone you refer! ClixSense.com is projecting member earnings at over $40,000.00 by the end of the month! Make sure you are logging in, clicking ads, and referring new members to quickly up your earnings.

On average there are over 100 new ads daily for you to click and earn. Amounts available to you may vary due to targeting or your time online. Example: If an advertiser places an ad for 500 views, the first 500 who click that ad will receive the earnings. With hundreds of people logged on at any given time some ads can go quickly! The best way to maximize your earnings is to log in and check your account often.

Advertisers: We've heard from many of you that your ads are producing a 15% conversion ratio. This means that for every 1000 hits purchased, 150 viewers are buying the products or converting to members. That's incredible. Just goes to prove that if you get REAL visitors to your web pages, they will buy. ClixSense.com delivers real visitors, not just "hits" like other advertising sites. ClixSense.com is the best place to get your web site, auction listing, web blog, and more seen! No hype here, just real visitors.

Happy St. Patricks Day and Happy Clicking at ClixSense.com!

ClixSense.com Management

If you are into PTC, ClixSense is definitely a good site to get into. Lots of PTC's and they add up fast.


TrickleDownCash is having server problems. Once payouts are completed, they are planning on moving to a new server. For now, to help the situation, you need to surf only 10 sites with a max of 15 sites. If you can't surf, send admin an email.
I wasn't able to surf yesterday and today also seems to be a problem.


Here's an article about how to get more traffic to your blog.

DanishAmericanSurf, MrTenPercent, ProSurfer717, Vietnam Autosurf

DanishAmericanSurf is turning off and deleting all cashout requests until she gets all accounts straightened out. Once accounts have been audited, she will begin payouts.

MrTenPercent is doing extremely well. So well that a major player is trying to buy them out:

Firstly ANOTHER major player is trying to buy us out. They can see that we are a long time paying site and want to enter into negotiation to purchase the site. We are going to see what the deal is but members must come first and IF we were to consider it there would be safeguards in place that protect the members and there money otherwise any deal would be OFF. The site in question is an "Inc", legitimate business.

Let's just hope it's not Bob or CEP. Better yet, let's just hope they don't sell.


According to the latest update, ProSurfer717 is still working on refunds from the old site and the new site is going well. I haven't gotten mine yet, so I'll be staying away from these guys until I do.
They've also opened up a new site: http://www.vietnamautosurf.com/

1:1 Surf ratio.
Receive 100 credits for joining.
Min upgrade is $1 and Max is $10000.
Earn 2% daily for 75 days.
5% referral commission for upgrade members, 2% for free members.
Surf 10 sites to earn. Timelast 10 seconds each sites.
We accept only E-Gold system.
Advertise 20 sites for Upgrade member , 1 site for free member.
Daily Cashout at anytime.


Surf7Daily has completed payouts for February. March payments will begin April 2.

Surf Warrior, DanishAmericanSurf, MrTenPercent, Squidoo

SurfWarrior is still waiting for DSM refund. Here's the latest:

I am still waiting for DSM's refund. Even if I receive those funds that does not solve the fact that we are so behind on payments. Out of 625 members only 90 are currently upgraded! That's terrible!!
My $25 suggestion was reasonable and could have brought us out of this situation with everyone getting paid but out of 625 members less then 10 members acknowledged it. Unlike other admins who lead their members in circles, I'm telling it straight to all of you.
I will not lie to any of you. I have been paying out smaller upgrades due to the amounts coming in. By doing so I can pay off more members as compared to 1 or 2 members with high upgrades.
I will wait for DSM refunds and decide what plan of action to take next.

Michael

I'm holding off on reupgrading here until Michael is refunded to see what he decides to do.


DanishAmericanSurf admin is still planning on paying, but is now considering returning cashout requests to accounts and letting members compound until she gets accounts straightened out.
She is also promoting MrsVees Matrix. Here's the forum thread admin has started on the topic: http://z14.invisionfree.com/DASKierkegaardForum


MrTenPercent appears to be doing very well.
"Over the last 3 months our Alexa ranking has shot from over 2 million to 562,000 http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?&range=3m&size=medium&compare_sites=&url=mrtenpercent.com/#top"
That's good news. At least one site is doing well, amidst all the site foldings lately.

Squidoo lens: another way to promote your site. Basically, for a blog, you create a lens and add a link to your rss feed. Every time you update your blog, your lens will automatically be updated. You can join groups and search other lens's. I've just started looking into it, but apparently you can also earn money. Every lens has google adsense ads and you can add amazon product links from which you earn a percentage. Payments are made to your paypal account. You also earn by getting referrals:

Refer a friend to be a Squidoo lensmaster. When your friend's lens earns its first $15, you AND your friend will each get $5, free! Just fill out the form below.

Yup, Squidoo is free, so it's worth a shot. Lots of good lens's here with good info on making money online too.
Here's my Squidoo lens for my extra cash site and blog. It's not quite finished yet though.
I'll also be adding a lens for each of my other blogs when I get the chance.

Also check out Surf Bloodhound's blog for tornado pics. He lives in the town which was hit so hard by the tornado. Fortunately, him and his family are ok.

4Newbies, CEP, 9PlanetNoSurf, MrTenPercent

So the new site, 4Newbies, opened up by Israel of the Command Corps group is now under control of CEP. CEP has been paying for a long time, apparently it's a good site. The reason I never joined them is because you can only use their processor, CEPTrust, for upgrades. I'm not too keen on that idea. So 4Newbies gets control transferred over and guess what? All 4Newbies members are now forced to use CEPTrust. Members existing before this switch can only get paid the upgrades they bought, before this switch, to CEPTrust. I do believe that is not right and am glad I didn't join. Check out Dolphin's blog for the full scoop.

I'm still waiting on my refund from 9PlanetNoSurf.

I've been checking out some new surf sites to join. I had problems with the crypto card in my top choice, so forget that one. One of the ones I'm going with is MrTenPercent. It's been paying for 6 months. Upgrades are 5% and earn until you decide to cashout. Min cashout is $5. In order to cashout, you need an active upgrade of 10%. If your active upgrade is 50% of your cashout, you get a 5% bonus. Upgrades are $5. Have seen this one around a long time, but thought it would turn scam. Appears to be genuine and I used to watch the A-Team, so I'll give it a shot.
I do have a couple of other contenders for when I get new e-gold, so stay tuned for those.
