ARA-bux paid me today

As you guys know, I mentioned ARA-bux in a recent post
and it was news that they had undergone a hacker attack.
I also mentioned that I invested $200USD there a couple days
before the attack happened.

Ara-bux has been back up and running since the 24th of October
and I had a pending payment there (as a standard member) since Sept. 15th.
They pay standard members in 30 business days
and even though they went through this ordeal, has still delivered my payment on time.

I was quite shocked to open my email this evening and see an email telling me
I received money in my Alertpay account because I did not see anyone
else mention getting paid since the site has been back online fully.

This is a screenshot of my payment from them!

Photobucket

Ara-bux offers a minimum of 10 ads per day to standard members
so it is not too hard to reach payout.

Money4Banners

While looking for ways to make money online I ran across a website that pays you for just placing banners on your website. I thought "Wow, this is an awesome opportunity!" But of course they do have their rules and such.
They do not accept unfinished/incomplete websites or blogs and they do not accept adult content websites/blogs.

I decided I would submit my dessert blog to their website and within 24 hours I was sent an email saying my website was approved!

I don't know if they will approve free websites or blogs because my dessert blog is not a free hosted site in any form. But it is still worth a try, so check out Money4Banners and earn £5.00 every month just for having the banners there! No clicks, sales or sign-ups needed to get paid.

Just make sure you place the code correctly on your website or blog (if you are unsure that you placed the code correctly - like I was - just email them asking if you did it correctly)
If you don't place the code correctly you won't be paid. It is that easy though!

So give it a try! If you blog gets rejected they will provide the reason why it was and maybe you can look into remedying it so you can re-apply again. Don't get discouraged!
They pay via Paypal and Amazon Gift Certificate.
To get paid via Paypal select the radio button next to the word "Cash"

From their website - How it works

  • Enter your contact information
  • Tell us which 3 pages of your Website you wish to display the adverts on.
  • Within 24 hours we will provide you with your advertising banner and code.
  • Place these on to your site.
  • Once this banner is on your site you will receive £10.00 and a further £5.00 for every month the banner is displayed on your site.

Here is my bonus sign-up payment from Money4Banners!

So, what are you waiting for?
Join Money4Banners and start bringing in some extra cash!

Updates on Some Paid to Click Sites

The other day I posted a General Update for you all about some paid to click sites and a few other sites which have good potential for some extra income each month. Well, as each day passes new things are happening on these sites and I am going to do a small update on some of the Paid to Click sites and what seems to be going on.

Neobux

My last update about Neobux was when they ran into some problems with Paypal. Well it has all been resolved and you can read the full story straight from the Admin of Neobux in this post entitled Karma. Not too shabby. Good work Neobux.

Crewbux
I'm not sure what is happening over at Crewbux at the moment. Because they promised instant payments and it still has not been fulfilled. They extended payment times, they have tons of ads, like over 50 at a time for premium members (this might be because people are converting their balance to ads) but I cannot be sure of this and now their whole forum boards have been stripped bare! I would really like to know what is happening there. I am happy to have recouped my investment, but I would really love to know what the hell is happening now. So I'll try to keep you all updated on this one.

ARA-bux

This site unfortunately recently underwent a hacker attack (not a DDos attack) and what timing for it to happen as well, because a couple of days earlier they started taking pre-orders for rented referrals, so it was easy for some people to think they packed up and ran away with their money. I mean hey, I could have thought the same as I have invested $200USD there a couple days before it happened. But I kept my eye on the site and they were giving updates and not just totally missing from the world of the internet, plus they were a part of another community that has been around for awhile. So I kept my faith and was very happy to see the site return. It is not fully back at the moment though. The site will relaunch completely on October 24th with the rented referrals system in place. I will keep you all updated on my progress with this site in the future.

Paid-Profit, another HYIP site

Paid-Profit is a HYIP or High Yield Investment Program. I do not have a lot of experience with these programs and I have just started investing into them. This is one of the first programs I invested into and I have to say I am happy that I got paid from them.

Paid Profit only accepts Liberty Reserve e-currency as their method of depositing and withdrawing fund. They have different plans which offer you 5-7% Daily For 30 Days, 200-300% After 30 Days, a Monitoring Daily Plan. I liked that they accepted low $1Usd deposits and they offer a sign-up bonus of $100 dollars which is added to your account after you make your first deposit. They were very prompt in adding my bonus and even emailed me to let me know it was done. I invested $1 dollar into the 5-7% Daily For 30 Days plan but I see they have raised the minimum deposit to $10 dollars since then

My start investment was $1.00.
So I do nothing for 30 days, just leave it there to build interest.

How much would I earn by the you ask...well only $1.50 which is only $0.50 cents profit.
But I have yet to see how or when I will get to withdraw the bonus they gave me.

Now for the question that is on everyone's minds...are they really going to pay?!

Well I requested a payment of $0.66 cents from them on October 13th and
I got my payment into my LibertyReserve account on October 14th along with a mail from the informing me that my payment was sent. I am happy to see that they were so prompt. I am going to let the rest of my investment build interest till the end of the month and see what is happening with the bonus as well.

Now if you interested in HYIP sites

Never invest more than you can afford to lose.


So simply put...if you cannot afford to "play with" even $1 dollar. Then these sorta programs aren't for you. When investing, even if you get paid one time, a couple times, etc. Do not get greedy cause there may come a time where they might cease paying and you may lose everything you invested and earned (profits re-invested)

If you can afford to play with that $1 dollar. Do not go looking for programs that promise you double or even triple earnings in one day, one hour! You are just looking for trouble for like that.
Go for the sites that promise small amounts of interest. So the earnings might be slow and you may not have much to gamble with (well it technically is like gambling) but if you do run into a good program. Keep the investments small and do NOT get greedy.

Here is a proof of payment from Paid-Profit.

I will keep you all updated on how this goes for me.

Level Invest - HYIP program

Levelinvest.net is a HYIP or High Yield Investment Program. I do not have a lot of experience with these programs and I have just started investing into them. This is one of the first programs I invested into and I have to say I am happy that I got paid from them.

Level Invest accepts many different payment methods; E-gold, E-Bullion,Pecunix,Liberty Reserve,V-Money and Alertpay. Paypal and Moneybookers are not payment options for this website. They have different plans which offer you 10% daily on your deposit for 15 days or 200% after 15 days on your deposit. I liked that they accept low $1Usd deposits and decided to take a plunge. I invested $1 dollar each into both plans.

My start investment was now $2.00 total.
So I do nothing for 15 days, just leave it there to build interest.

Plan 1 - $1 @ 10% for 15 days = $1.50
Plan 2 - $1 @ 200% after 15 days = $2.00

Total earned after said period = $3.50

Now here is where it gets sticky...are they really going to pay?!

Well I requested a payment of $3.50 from them on October 2nd and
believe it or not...I forgot that I did so, but I have it all recorded anyway.
Imagine my surprise when I woke up one morning (October 8th) and saw an email from Alertpay saying that I recieved money. The first thought that crossed my mind was a PTC site
paid me, but which one?! But instead, to my delight, it was the money I requested from Level Invest. I was now $1.50 in profit from my investment. I decided I would re-invest $1 dollar of that profit into the 200% after 15 days plan again.

Never invest more than you can afford to lose.

So simply put...if you cannot afford to "play with" even $1 dollar. Then these sorta programs aren't for you. When investing, even if you get paid one time, a couple times, etc. Do not get greedy cause there may come a time where they might cease paying and you may lose everything you invested and earned (profits re-invested)

If you can afford to play with that $1 dollar. Do not go looking for programs that promise you double or even triple earnings in one day, one hour! You arej ust looking for trouble for like that.
Go for the sites that promise small amounts of interest. So the earnings might be slow and you may not have much to gamble with (well it technically is like gambling) but if you do run into a good program. Keep the investments small and do NOT get greedy.

General Update

Hello to all my readers,

I know it has been a while since I posted on this blog. The last post I made was about Usernames and Passwords - which I highly recommend reading.
That post was done over a month ago. Life has been really busy for me so September wasn't much of a month to celebrate earning something online. I must have only earned about $80USD.

Well, since this is a general update, let me cut straight to all the websites I want to tell you all about - good news, bad news, updates, etc. I will also be posting some payment proofs that I have lying about from September/October as well and I will be informing you all on my Crewbux venture and my newly undertaken venture with ARA-bux.

Clickin' Me - Scam Site! Beware!

I'll start with a website that must have made fame overnight with their sudden decision to only use Bank Wire Transfer as their payment method. They started off paying members quickly (via Alertpay) and updating ads every 8 and 12 hours. Meaning you would be earning a lot in a little time. Soon their payments began to get slower and they also held a sale on their referral packages via Alertpay. I stupidly invested into one of their referral packages for $20Usd. and thought I had lost that money.
Luckily I filed a complaint with Alertpay who told me to contact the admin of the website. I have done so and till this day, NEVER got a reply from the admin (yet on the forum some people posted proof of refunds) but when I complained to Alertpay again they simply reversed the transaction and I got my money back.

Three Cheers for Alertpay and their customer service and good riddance to a scam PTC site!

IsabelMarco

This is another Paid to Click site but if there are young ones in the house don't click there or while they are around. They have adult links present. But now for the real issue. They have stopped paying standard members and would only pay those members who choose to upgrade. I guess you can click as a standard member but don't even think of getting that money unless you upgrade. I cannot say too much on this whole situation as I never truly liked clicking at that site. So I only had about $2Usd in my account anyway. But I do not like the idea of having to upgrade just to get paid! Now, let me put this clear...IsabelMarco is NOT a scam because they are paying...but I repeat again. You need to upgrade first.

Thinkbux

Now Thinkbux is a paying site and this post by their admin says it all really. You decide if it is worth clicking there or not. They also have a donation section, but you are never obligated to donate to the site. But this seems to be a growing trend among many sites as of late though.

Neobux

The first instant payment PTC site on the scene which paid both via Alertpay and Paypal have run into problems with Paypal. Paypal really does not allow PTC sites and quite a few other types of sites to use their payment processors. Once they catch wind of this though, they immeadiately freeze the account of said website or website owner, which means whatever funds were in the account just sit there for 180 days doing nothing. You cannot use this account in any way. They also put in a donation post on their site as well since they said most of the site funds was in the Paypal account. I am happy that I just stick to Alertpay with these sites and Neobux is currently NOT a scam.

Crewbux

Oh my, so many things to say about this site. I think the best thing to do is to just direct you to their News Forum so you can read all that needs to be known. But they are also paying and have NOT turned scam even after all the stuff they have been through. I cannot wait for when they implement the instant payment script though. Good news as well. I have recouped my investment and I am in profit with this site but only by about $10Usd. Not much I know. My referrals (which I bought months back) seem to be dead, so I requested for a replacement of 50 of them (Premium member) I am waiting to see when they will be replaced.

ARA-bux

I personally have not heard much complaints about ARA-bux and they have recently implemented a system for renting referrals every month. This site is a relatively new PTC so I hope to see that it has good potential with it. I plan on buying 500 rented referrals for the first month to see what type of profits I can make from them. I will keep you all updated as best as I can on this.

Well, that is all I can immeadiately think of. I will try to post more often about sites if I have time. With Christmas coming up and a few other holidays before that one, I might be quite busy. I love to bake and stuff. Hopefully I can help you all on the right path to make some extra cash for Christmas. I am hoping to get an extra $200Usd between now and December from Review Stream. It will definitely come in handy for Christmas or even New years celebrations. So take a mosey on over there and see for yourself. I have been paid four or five times (I've lost count) from that site already!

Also do some Mturking if you feel it suits you. Even if you cannot get the cash in hand, you won't believe how handy the cash comes in when you can use it as a gift certificate on their website. If you have family, relatives, friends in the USA...you can find lovely gifts with free shipping if you don't want to pay shipping costs and send them something nice for Christmas time. If you have friends in the UK, you can buy nice things for them and so you might have to pay some shipping, but it is more convinient and best of all...No Out Of Pocket Costs!

I might actually order myself some gourmet chocolates this Christmas using some of my Amazon Gift Certificate funds and since my friend from the UK loves chocolates so much, I may order some for him as well! I still have to decide what I will be getting my relatives and friends in the USA. But it is nice to have this extra cash at hand!

Well have a good day/night.
