OK, so how does the money roll in?
First of all you must sign up to a PPC site, such as AdverCash or BuxGalore (more in my archives!). Once you have signed up for either a FREE membership, or a Premium membership (NOTE: Costs money, however earning potentials are MUCH higher) you can begin clicking ads! Ads are usually distributed by either interests or general. When you sign up on a PPC site, if it asks your interests, click as many as you can (this means more Ads for you!) Some good ones to ALWAYS click are Internet, and anything that has to do with Business or Money because most ads out there relate to these three things. Usually you make around $0.01US for clicking one ad. In order to actually receive this money, you earnings are held on their site in your account info until you are eligible to receive it. To be eligible, usually you must have a Paypal account and you must meet the minimum requirement for withdrawing your earnings (requirements differ from site to site but the most common is only $10US)
Where do these PPC sites get their money to dish out for free?!
All these ads are clicking are by companies requesting that PPC site to advertise for them. In order for them to advertise on a PPC site though, they must pay that PPC site to do so. In most cases the charge is more to advertise then the gain from clicking. (In other words, Company X pays PPC $0.02 for every one of their ads that is clicked. PPC offers Company X's ads to it's members for $0.01 a click returning the other $0.01 back to PPC in order to keep their site up and running!) Some sites however only charge an advertiser what it would cost them to pay it's members for clicking on the ads (Like WordLinx, to advertise it costs $0.01 per ad sent out, and the members receive $0.01 for clicking it). You may see this as a non-profit PPC site but don't be fooled because they always offer other things such as purchasing referrals for X amount of dollars, other ads that you don't get paid to click but they do (usually Banner ads, or Google AdSense ads) however it is never REQUIRED to purchase anything, ever!
Ok so can I just click all the time and be a millionaire?
The only two drawbacks of PPC'ing is that you are, in most cases, limited to the amount of clicks you have per day and the amount you can make per click (generally a penny-a-click, usually in US dollars of course!)
So I'm making money clicking ads everyday, how do I maximize my earnings?
There are several things you can do in order to maximize this online income.
The easy one is to sign up with all the PPC sites that you like, the more sites you are signed up with, the more ads you get resulting in more money you get also.
The best way is to get referrals. Referrals are users the YOU refer or invite to join an organization under your name. Referrals are the key to earning a large amount of money in a given time in practically in business. Most sites (if not all) credit you with earnings based on your referrals clicks too! This means that everytime your referral clicks an add, both you AND your referral gets money! Some sites credit you with 100% of their click earnings while some credit you with a bit less. Sometimes upgrading to a Premium member isn't a bad idea considering when you do so you get 150% of your referrals click earnings. If you have a couple hundred referrals it would be almost insane not to invest a small amount of money into a Premium membership in order to watch your income go through the roof!
Referrals are nice, but where to get them!? Well to give you a small history lesson: There are roughly 6.5 billion people on the planet. Around 450 million of these people have internet access. You never have the right to say "there is no referrals out there for me!" So you're thinking: "Yeah ok, so there's 450 million out there, how am i suppose to convince them to be my referral?" The answer is simple: Advertising. The more you advertise to people a site, the more people are likely to join and if they're nice enough, will claim that you referred them.
Ok, do you see a loop going on here? If not let me point it out to you:
You make money for clicking right? Well you want to maximize your earnings so you need referrals. In order to get referrals, you need to advertise. Where to advertise? Hmm... what about some place where users generally like to look... such as places where they get PAID to look... such as PPC sites... Catch my drift? You can advertise on a PPC site about other PPC sites to try and get these people to sign up under you. Some clever ways to advertise in order to get referrals is to make a PPC Reviews site, such as this one! If you are able to commit a small amount of time to explain to your viewers a little about each site, they will definitly be interested. It is also important for you to tell them how to keep this loop going because some sites pay you for your referrals' referrals clicks (like paying you for your second level referrals).
Now that you know the just of it. Howbout taking a look at some of my reviews for some of these PPC sites and if you like one, or find one interesting, sign up! You can only gain money by doing so.
