Pass it back

I noticed today while doing offers on one of my normal GPT Sites that apparently the ownership has changed hands again. What the heck? Are there any sites older then two months old that have the same owner from day one? I know of three myself .

Could we have more scams?

CPAwhiz dubbed a scam site is now being filleted on various GPT forums Example: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1062420
I am wondering why so many of these networks want to treat their affiliates like garbage. Between the million "are you a fraud site" questions on their affiliate application to the "don't run the wrong offers or we will terminate you" threats. When the whole time 80% of them are crooks just waiting for the chance to split with your money. Now apparently there is another site I have got wind of that has stopped answering mails and calls and has not paid their members as of late. So I am sure a new scamming site will be listed soon enough on here.

What to look for and look out for in a GPT site.

Honesty,if a site owner pays you on time or gives you a heads up if your payment will be a little late give them the benefit of the doubt, we are all human...well most of us lol
If a sites TOS changes alot! pay attention to what is being added or subtracted, seriously.
If a site changes hands or is sold a few times be aware of who is actually running the site.
If a site tries offering you many ways to make money with them realize the hard work that the owner is putting into your membership,believe me most sites are pretty boring lol
If a site has really unreasonable pay out minimums you may want to think about putting alot of work into trying to make a $50.00 cash out.
If a site has alot of bad press do not automatically assume its true especially if its by one member who plastered it all over the internet,pay attention but not everything is gospel.
Those are just a few things..

Mylot...Maybe if your sixteen years old.

I thought this site was a great ideal at first. Then I started meaningful conversations only to have them trolled or replied with some asinine replies. I am not sure this is a good place for adults or even people who are really trying to have good conversations, it also isn't a place to really earn more then a few pennies a week unless you post nonstop all day. you will have to make your own mine up about Mylot lol

Dneero

Now I like Dneero don't get me wrong. I have came close to cashing out on that site but their new policy kinda aggravated me. Apparently in march the places you post your conversations are going to have to be approved by Dneero staff first. Now what the hay is that about lol
I added one of my posting places in their site as an option and it was turned down because the error message I recieved was "Dneero is about the conversations and not making money so to protect the integrity of our site you will have to choose another place to post"......about the conversations not making money? With a site name like Dneero? Who are you trying to fool? lol

Yuwie...don't waste your time.

I have belonged to Yuwie for awhile and when I first starting using it I was like awesome I can make money just blogging and having a profile. Bullcrap lol I was very active for months and after inviting friends and making blog posts,uploading pictures and all that fun stuff I had made a grand total of $0.50...wow wicked money..lol I still decided to keep at it until they introduced a massive amount of crappy pop up ads. My pc was going ewww when I got on Yuwie and I was having a heck of a time just getting to my profile to check mail. I logged in this morning for the jolly of it and my balance had increased..I was up to $0.54..lol just don't waste your time unless you really have nothing better to do.

Now is this really fair?

This is one reason people tend to get rather aggravated with GPT sites lol
I belonged to a site up until yesterday, suprise! and there really is not a good reason why as I am no longer a paid member. I had did an offer and got it approved when I joined this site, since I belong to a few favorites and this new site had the same offers I stuck with just doing the PTCS Ads and checking their new offer category every once in a while. Well after forever I finally reached their cash out minimum of $20.00(lotta freaking clicking) and cashed out. I logged in yesterday to do the PTCS Ads and guess what?! lol my account had been labeled inactive. I tried contacting the admin,no help and no answer. There also is no where on the site that states that I cannot only do PTCS Ads to reach cash out. So whose the thief because I know and I hope she enjoys the money she just scammed from me lol

To own a Get Paid To site

First off you need money and that is no joke.
If you go through the popular shiftcode site be prepared to start out spending a few hundred bucks. To get the paid to sign up script you need including all the fun features get ready to spend around $250.00 dollars. If you want to add in a paid to click script add in another $40.00 dollars. Of course you will have to buy the instant crediting plugins for every advertiser available which is $4.95 a piece and giving there are about 20 your looking at adding another $100.00 to your total. But wait you haven't even added in the option to have PTC contests which is another $30.00 dollars. Still you have not even purchased the domain for your site which varies and a design for your site which starts around $100.00. So a guess your total at the moment would be around $520.00 dollars which doesn't include the monthly $20.00 fee shiftcode charges for licensing. That is just a great guess at how much money you'll spend to get started and if you want to add products like pixel advertising you have not even begun. Do not forget the money you'll spend advertising or trying to keep new ideals on your site so members will return. The money you will loose if an advertiser decides to stop paying you and up and goes bye bye. No wonder owners are so pissy about fraud?

CPAWhiz Again!

Now I did a search on this company again and found that not only has there been members who have not been paid but the sites url magically changed as well to this http://cpagain.com
Can publishers get a freaking break? My advice is shiftcode site owners who buy plug ins for these new sites just beware. Add like a few offers and leave it be,do not even invest the time to add many offers from new sites until they have proved reliable when it comes to payments and support.

Prizelive

I like this site,it is fun for the most part and the games really helps when there is no new offers for you to complete. It is worth joinng if you haven't:)

Why some site owners just seem mean.

Members who have been "victimized" by a owner of a GPT always have something really negative to say somewhere online. I myself have been at the bottom of a crappy site owners decisions and have voiced my opinion as well. I am not defending a owner who steals and yes I say steals your balance and deletes your account over some nonesense rule. Rules that are made up convienantly when they are needed. But when a site owner busts your butt for cheating or marks your account because it smells don't be so quick to go completely off on them. Many site owners are reasonable and when talked to like people and not your personal slaves they are open about fixing problems. If you use a proxy server when it clearly says on a site to not, then don't go anal all over every gpt type forum you can about how awful this site is that marked you a cheater. You cheated,move on. On the other hand if you cannot log into your account or if you have questions about something,try asking,emailing,send a help ticket. It will pay off 80% of the time better then if you just shout and flail.

Why some offers just don't credit.

Advertising networks are obviously middle men for advertisers who want to have their products viewed or tested. Advertisers set "caps" for how many offers completed they are willing to pay for. Not all offers are capped I assume it depends on what advertiser and what offer. When this cap is reached and I believe it goes by month networks will either make an offer expire or place it on hold. Realize they deal with alot of publishers daily and are not always great about notifying a publisher of offers that are "capped" or on hold/expired. So in the networks defense they do the best possible to notify publishers(site owners) Remember this when your fussing about one of your offers not approving.
