A very easy way to get referrals for a ptc site is to join dedicated referrals websites.
Joining referrals websites is free and they are very easy to use, you don’t need some sort of skill or knowledge to get referrals
So, how do they work?
Well, the process is pretty simple and it is kind of the same for most of the websites I’m going to introduce you to in the next few seconds:
You join every site and then start earning credits at each one of them. With these credits you can advertise on that website or you can offer them to other members in exchange for them to join your ptc websites.
How can you earn the credits?
There are 4 ways to get them :
- Click on the advertise links and banners that are placed every day by other members. This way is free and easy but it takes time and lasts at least 7-10 days to get enough credits to subscribe a person to your ptc sites
- Join other programs listed in and earn the credits that the interested person is offering to you. Not so recommended because soon you’ll get a lot of programs to handle and you won’t be able to manage them all – the idea here is that to get the credits you have stick to some rules like be active for at least 30 days.
- Buy the credits. If time is a major problem then these websites allow you to buy credit packages. I never tried something like this, but if you feel this can help you then you should try it.
- Bring referrals to these programs just as well as you bring to the ptc sites. This is a bit difficult but not impossible, and if you have no idea how to do that you can just stick to the other three options listed above.
Maybe this seems like a lot of work, but you should know these things are a lot more easier than they seem and are in full details explained on the referrals websites, some of them have video tutorials to show you exactly what you have to do to start getting referrals as fast as possible.
Next you have the list of referral programs I’m using and recommending:
1) getref.com
2) programrefs.com
3) simplerefs.com
4) targetrefs.com
5) downlinerefs.com
Joining is very easy and free and it will not take more than 10-15 minutes to join every one of the above.
Ok, that will be the first part of “How to get referrals for your ptc sites”… if you need help or have any questions please feel free to leave a comment anytime you like or even email me.
This part is about bringing referrals with a blog or a website. This method takes a long time before you see results and requires will and determination, but when it’s done you’ll get a lot of satisfactions beside the number of referrals.
I am only saying this because it is not enough to just build a page and add links on it, you also have to drive traffic to that webpage or blog.
The good part is that using a website or a blog with the links to your ptc sites, one visitor can become your direct referral to all of your ptc programs.
How do you build up a blog without spending money?
For blogs there are 2 reliable services that you can use (I use them too): wordpress and blogger.
All you have to do is register at one of these services, chose a name and a theme for your blog and then start posting on it. If you already have the blog’s content ready then it shouldn’t take longer than 10 minutes to get it all set up.
Even if you have never had anything to do with making blogs before, you shouldn’t worry because both of the services have tutorials to teach you step by step what you have to do to get the blogs up and running.
Now let’s see how you can build up a site with the same speed as a blog.
For that first you need a domain and a hosting account. I recommend you head over to godaddy.com website and get a domain name for as much as $9 a year and then head over to hostgator.com and get a baby account that will cost you around $8 a month. Maybe that it’s too much for you but you need to take in consideration the benefits first…
Here’s what I like about hostgator.com:
- unlimited hosting space
- unlimited bandwith (this means you can bring as much traffic on your sites and you will pay nothing more than the monthly fee)
- unlimited number of domain names to host on the same account. Practically you make an account at hostgator.com and you can host on it 100 websites and pay only $8 a month. This is what I like most of it because most of the services will only host 1 or 2 domains.
- great customer support
- easy to use control panel, no need of external ftp software to upload the files to the server.
- other major thing I want to add here is that you can install a wordpress blog in as much as a mouse click.
- and also they have website building software that you can easily use if you know nothing about html
Well, that’s all with the hosting and domain account…
Let’s go to creating a website!
You can build your own website if you know html and then you can upload the files to the hosting account.
If you don’t know html then you could go to open a project on freelance websites and get the website done in exchange of some money (you can get the website in 2-3 days for about 50-100 dollars).
But if you don’t want to spend any more time and spend zero money on building it then you can do the same thing I did.
Go to the hostgator.com account control panel, search for the Fantastico de Luxe button and follow the instruction there. It will automatically install a wordpress blog on your domain name. The rest is piece of cake, all you have to do is follow the steps hostgator.com will show during the installation.
At the end of the installation you should have a blog name, a blog username and password to access the wordpress blog’s control panel. This is necessary to be able to add posts in your blog and make changes in the design.
You can modify the theme as you like – there are thousands of wordpress free themes you can add to your blog, all you have to do is search on google after the words ”free wordpress themes”.
Ok, now you’re probably wondering why did I suggest you to go to godaddy.com and hostgator.com(paid services) to make a wordpress blog that you can have for free…
Well, the problem with the free blogs Is that they’re not really yours, don’t get me wrong here…what I mean is that even though the content is yours the hosting is not yours and you depend on the wordpress or blogger servers which they have terms and rules for and these terms can change from day to day.
If they think something is suspect or just don’t like your blog they can suspend your account when the world seems better even if you worked half of year at it. So from this point of view a free service cost much more than a paid one :).
My advice is use a service that will spare you from stress and work done for nothing.
Oh, in by the way if you liked this post and you have any idea how to make it better I’m waiting for comments…
This part is about how to bring referrals to your ptc sites using traffic exchange websites.
If you don’t know what traffic exchange websites are you can find out more about them on Wikipedia following the next link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_exchange
Here’s a list with website I use and worth you attention:
a) The first on my list is Linkreferral
Linkreferral is not an usual traffic exchange website, it has some rules different from the rest of the websites and now it has over 200 000 members.
While on other traffic exchange websites you have to view other people advertisements for a certain amount of time to earn credits and get your advertisement seen, at linkreferral the things are a bit different.
To get your website viewed in the category you posted your website you have to look at 30 websites, make 5 reviews to the websites you’ve just viewed and make 1 post in the forum.

b) Another website is traffic swarm
This is twice as big as linkreferral in the number of members and works like most of the traffic exchange websites. You view other members advertisements and they view yours. You can get really good results if you keep testing the titles you chose for the ads, if you put you ad with different titles and especially if you are an upgraded member.

c) Easyhits4you
This website has 150000 members and what is interesting here is that it also pays you for surfing.

This way you will be able to click on all in the same time and move faster and earn more credits.
This part is about how to get referrals with posting and comments made on blogs and forums.
Ok, so what do you have to do and how do you have to do this?!
First of all you have to keep one thing in your mind: for people to click on your link you have to leave valuable comments, to add value to the forum or the blog or at least something that has connection with the subject of discussion.
The point here is you can’t expect many visits if the way you choose to advertise is spam.
The blogs and forums on which you will be posting on have to ahev connection with the ptc sites or at least with easy ways of making money online.
There’s no point in expressing opinions about making money online in lose wight forums, because your posts will be cataloged as spam and deleted.
How do we find the blogs to comment in and post links to ptc sites or to our own website?
That it’s easy! You search them on Google using the words: blog “ptc sites”
This search will show you series of results about ptc sites and other online communities related to this niche and with blogs about this niche.
All you have to do is take them one at a time and make posts with a referral link on each one of them.
Try to embed the link in useful posts, contribute to those blogs with something before adding the link because, as I mentioned above you must not spam. Your posts will get deleted and your work would be in vain.
To add links in forums you need to set up the signature file and here’s how:
After you Join the forum, enter the account, go to User Control Panel, click on the Profile button and then Edit Signature.
will get a page like this most of the times:

Picture

The highlighted part is the one where you will add your referral url.
Just like I have added my website in this signature file, you will have to add your link.
All you have to replace is the URL (the 1 arrow) with your referral link from the ptc site and then replace the text you wish to be transformed in a link(the 2 arrow) with any phrase you want to use or even the ptc’s name.
Here is a list with the forums you can use:
http://www.emoneyspace.com/forum/index.php?referredby=49156
www.mtalkpro.com
www.ptctalk.com
www.talkptc.com
www.moneymakergroup.com
www.getpaidforum.com
www.dreamteammoney.com
www.gptboycott.com
www.ptcdatabase.com
You must register an account with everyone and then start posing, after you set up your signature file.
Beside that you can register accounts also at the ptc sites forums and post there. The more comments you make and links that lead to ptc sites the more referrals you will ad.
