How to earn money from PTC websites?

Each Paid to click site will have an "Earnings Area" or a "View Ads" section. There are typically multiple types or length of ads. Each one is worth different amounts of money. When you click on the ad you will be taken to another page where some sort of timer will count down. When you are finished viewing the ad, your account will be credited with the cash amount for the view.
You are not going to earn much during the first few weeks clicking, but you can earn average about $0.10/day on each site. It's more about familiarizing yourself with the sites and times of ad reset. I made something like $0.02 to $0.05 the first couple of days.

It is extremly important to know what time the ads reset each day and what time zone the servers are in. You will need to make sure you click your ads each and every day. Make this a habit. Don't forget when to click your ads at each site, because by missing a day when you have 1000s of referrals, you could be throwing away $100's of dollars. Most PTCs require you to click at least 4 ads a day in order to earn money from your referrals the next day.

Rent referrals by clicking the "Rent Referrals" button on your account home page. On most PTC's, you can rent referrals monthly (30 calendar days) to work for you! The cost is minimal compared to the income they can provide if active and with the autopay feature you can ensure you only keep the "active" clickers in your rental downline.The quantity of referrals available will vary depending on how many users registered without a referrer.

Direct Referrals

There is a lot of focus on renting referrals because it takes very little work, but getting direct referrals has it's obvious advantages:
1. It doesn't cost money to keep them
2. Most PTCs let you earn more from them
3. They are with you for life (if they don’t give up after the first couple of days ;)

When to Upgrade.

This is on a person by person basis. The quicker you upgrade, the more money you will make. If you have money to invest... UPGRADE! If you don't... after a few weeks of clicking and building your downlines you will have the money to upgrade. Upgrading is a must, but only when you are finacially ready to do so.

Mathematically speaking, the formulas used by all the PTC's are set up for you to be successful, if you are committed to your own success. It is not difficult, but it will take a little elbow grease and hard work. Math does not lie, and it is not magic. You can make $100's of dollars a day.
