Getting Started With Your PTC
The first stage in this process is obviously to sign up with your PTC site. As I have already discussed in a previous post, the trusted PTC sites are:
1) Neobux.com
2) Probux.com
3) Zapbux.com
<< Important Note: At the initial phase, your earnings will be extremely low and dismal. The key is patience and diligence. Most users do not have the patience to make it to the real earning potentials >>
There are three ways to earn with PTC sites:
1) Through personal effort and work – This would be by way of viewing ads, completing mini-jobs and offers.
2) Commissions earned through Rented Referrals
3) Commissions earned through Direct Referralls
In the previous post, I have systematically explained that there is a decent amount of money to be earned through PTC sites. However, it is not a huge amount. Don’t expect to be earning in the thousands.
On the PTC sites, you can view advertisements. This is the core functionality of these sites, and this is where you will first start off to earn your first few cents. You can expect to earn about 4 to 7 cents per day by viewing ads.
Most PTC sites also allow you to complete mini-jobs, through CrowdFlower, and surveys. By completing these tasks, you will be able to supplement your earnings, and depending on availability of mini jobs, you can earn up to even 20 cents a day.
The First Objective
Your primary objective is to be able to earn 60 cents. Why 60 cents? Well because that is the minimum amount you need to rent your first referral pack. Remember, your real earnings lie in your referrals. So, that is first goal. With 60 cents, you can purchase 3 referrals
The PTC sites impose a 15 day probation period to ensure that the users are active and diligent. They also impose a minimum ad viewing requirement, set at 100 for Neobux and 20 for Probux. In this period you will not be entitled to have Direct Referrals nor upgrade to the Golden Pack.
Another important note, is that with Probux, you have to wait 1 week before you can even rent referrals. So keep that in mind.
Once you have rented your referrals, then turn ‘Autopay’ on. What this feature does is that it automatically extends your referral for another day, if they have viewed advertisements that day. With ‘Autopay’ on, you get a discount on renewal. With ‘Autopay’ on, the cost for extending your referral for a day is $0.005 (or 1 click). So, for example, if your referral views 4 Ads, then you will earn for 3 ads ($0.015) and your referral will be extended for another day. But, it is necessary to note that if your referral does not click, he will not be extended, and furthermore, if your referral’s validity falls below 20 days, then they will not be renewed on a daily basis. So you will have to manually renew them ($0.1 for 15 days, $0.2 for 30 days, and so on).
Once you have rented your first referrals, it is essential that you are active everyday. To earn the commission from your referrals, you need to view 4 Orange [a.k.a – Fixed or Guaranteed] advertisements. You don’t have to view any other advertisements, but viewing these ones are essential to earn from your referrals.
Recycling
You will find that certain referrals are not active or have a very low click rate. As I had mentioned in the previous post, it is not uncommon to be assigned bots, who do not click, or rarely click. This is the reason why some people denote Neobux as a scam {This is issue is not as common in Probux or Zapbux. The average click rate is higher on these PTC sites, but, the issue is still prevalent}. It is just the luck of the draw.
I recommend that if you are assigned such referrals, then recycle these referrals. Recycling basically means that swapping a rented referral for a different one. However, recycling is not free. It is will cost you $ 0.07 to recycle a referral. The PTC sites automatically recycle a referral after 14 days of inactivity, but I do not recommend that you wait for it, because it will cause a greater loss than recycling from the get go. I give a referral about 3 days of inactivity before recycling them. My rationale to this is that I devote a generous 48 hours for them to make a click in case they are in different time zones, or had just clicked before I rented them. On top of that, I had an extra day, just in case they forgot to come back and click or were busy, etc. But, I don’t wait longer than 3 days. Every day of inactivity is a loss for me.

Break Even Point (BEP)
Apart from inactive referrals, you need to determine your Break Even Point, that is the minimum number of ads that your referral has to view in order to cover the cost of renting the referral.
Simply put, at the beginning stage (upto 250 rented referrals), the BEP average of a referral is 1.333 Clicks.
The calculation is as follows:
Determine The Cost In Clicks = (Cost of Renting Referrals / Amount Earned Per Click)
$0.20 / $0.005 = 40 Clicks
This is the cost of renting a referral for a month, expressed in clicks. So, your referral has to view 40 ads, in order to cover the cost of renting him.
Thus, to calculate the average: 40 Clicks / 30 Days = 1.33 Clicks Per Day
Hence, your referral has to maintain an average greater than 1.33 Clicks in order for him to be an asset to you and put you in the profit zone. Otherwise, the referral will be a liability and only cause you loss.
Thus, you need to keep this calculation in mind, when thinking about recycling referrals.
Phase 2: Building Rented Referrals
Your next goal should to be acquire 300 referrals, which is the maximum that you can obtain on a standard membership
Building referrals will take time, especially if you are building ground up. But, over the months, you will be able to reach this phase and finally achieve maximum. Slowly you will be able to rent larger volumes of referrals at a time.
You can only rent referrals once in a 7 day period, regardless of how many you rent. You can rent as little as 3 referrals and go all the way up to 100 referrals in one go.
Let me reiterate: Patience is the key. Earnings will be marginal in the beginning, but don’t give up. The best fruit is always at the top of the tree.
Phase 3: Going Gold
Once you have capped your referrals in the standard membership, you have to go for gold. Build up $90 in your account so that you can purchase the Gold Membership. Like I said, nothing is free, and you need to invest to earn the big bucks. The Silver Lining to this, is that you don’t need to actually put in your own money. You can build up solely through your commissions from your referrals.
In the Gold Membership, your earnings from referrals will be doubled. This is so, because the commission rate for the ads that your referrals view is also doubled. Furthermore, your renting cap is increased from 300 referrals to 2000 referrals. This is where the real money is.
Phase 4: Capping Gold
At this stage, you probably don’t even need this guide anymore, but let me still say it. Keep on renting referrals until you cap off at 2000. If you have read my previous post, then you will see that you maximize your earning at this point.
From here on, you can either save up a bit and purchase the Ultimate pack, withdraw your money enjoy a comfortable, or basically, do whatever you want.
You should also start to build up some direct referrals, who will supplement your earnings.
Things To Remember & Some Useful Tips
1) View your orange (fixed or guaranteed) ads daily. If you don’t, you won’t earn commissions from your referrals
2) Boost your earnings by completing the adPrize, mini jobs, zapGrid and offers.
3) At any cost, do not violate the Terms of Service – An important one being that ONE ACCOUNT per IP address (So avoid using PTC sites at public places such as office or school)
4) If you are experiencing any issues or facing any problems, post on the forums. The community is quite strong. Also, you have signed up under my referral, then you can send me your query or doubt directly to me, and I will make sure that is sorted out.
5) If you feel that your road to success is slow, then think about investing a few dollars in, to give it a boost. Also, check out my other post to simultaneously earn more significant money to funnel back into your PTC
