Paid.vg - Cashout Problems!

WARNING: Paid.vg turned out to be a scam site. Please don’t join this site, the following post is only left here to show you how easy it is to get scammed…unfortunately.

As you may know, I´ve reached the minimum payout limit on Paid.vg some days ago. With help of my referrals I have $12.50 in my account balance and, at least in theory, I would be able to request my first payment. But it seems, with Paid.vg payments are somewhat complicated.

You can request your payments only once in a month, on every 22nd. So, yesterday was the 22nd and I logged into my account to do a cashout. But the system told me “Sorry, you can only request payment on the 22nd unless you are a premium member.” I tried it again and again, but everytime the same message. I rechecked the current date only to be sure if it really was the 22nd (and it was).

So, there are two possibilities. The first one could be, that Paid.vg has some serious server problems. Maybe something is wrong with their databases or something like that. I don´t know.
The second one is, that they could operate from a timezone where there already was the 23rd of the month, e.g. Australia?! I don´t know.

I´ve sent a support ticket to the Paid.vg team yesterday, but I got no response so far. I hope they´ll give me a clear answer on this problem. For the moment I´m a bit angry, although it shouldn´t be a problem to wait another month (I was so happy to have reached the minimum payout ;) To make it clear, I won´t discourage you in joining Paid.vg, as it seems to be a very good money maker. I think the cashout problems will clarify!

I´ll keep you updated!

UPDATE 02/24:
New infos from Paid.vg! They had some server issues regarding cashouts. The
cashout date is now moved from the 22nd to the 25th! Seems, I wasn´t the only one with payout problems :)

Bux.to - First Payment Received!

Warning! Bux.to has turned into a horrible PTC with payment delays of more than 6 months, a lame staff and forum mods that defeat Bux.to with their life although they even have not a received a single payment yet. I’m not the only one who didn’t get paid by them, thousands of users are complaining about this mess. The Bux.to staff are the most unprofessional people I’ve ever seen online for a long time (or maybe they are the best scammers I’ve seen, who knows…). I DON’T recommend joining them, there are way better PTCs on the market that even pay instantly, like NeoBux for example. There I already earned over $2,000 and got paid more than 10 times!

Just yesterday I talked about waiting for the first payments from Bux.to within the next days. Today the payment is alread here! I just checked my statistics and there were the holy words “Payment sent”. After only 28 business days, meaning 2 days faster than expected, I received $12.71 in my Alertpay account. It was a flawless process and I´m really happy.

You know I had my doubts if Bux.to will really pay me, that´s my nature somehow ;) But now I´m convinced of the truth. At least Bux.to seems like a huge money making machine for the next month (I still have my doubts if they can sustain for a longer time with such high payouts up to some thousand dollars). What I don´t like at the moment is the Alertpay payment option, because I can withdraw my funds only via check with high fees. I´m waiting for the new Bux.to debit card, more infos should follow this week!

For the next weeks I´ll try to buy some more referral packages until I make good daily money. I´ll use a great portion of my earnings for re-investing (provided that I make enough cash).

All I can say now is, join Bux.to if you want to make good money. Invest in buying referral packages (start with cheap ones), you´ll make your investment back within 2 to 3 weeks.

Bye,

PS: If you want to join an instant paying PTC, just check out my article about NeoBux. So far I’ve done two cashouts and the money arrived in my Alertpay account almost immediately!

PPS: Find out how to get paid to search the internet. You can earn up to $0.06 for a single search on Google, Yahoo or Ask.com! Read my review and start earning some nice extra cash after joining that site.

Bux.to - Big Payout Day Ahead!

Warning! Bux.to has turned into a horrible PTC with payment delays of more than 6 months, a lame staff and forum mods that defeat Bux.to with their life although they even have not a received a single payment yet. I’m not the only one who didn’t get paid by them, thousands of users are complaining about this mess. The Bux.to staff are the most unprofessional people I’ve ever seen online for a long time (or maybe they are the best scammers I’ve seen, who knows…). I DON’T recommend joining them, there are way better PTCs on the market that even pay instantly, like NeoBux for example. There I already earned over $2,000 and got paid more than 10 times!

As the title says, I´ll receive my first payment from Bux.to within some days, at least in theory. After waiting 30 business (the standard waiting time for premium users), I will receive my first cashout on February 22nd, meaning this Friday. The amount is a little bit over $12.00. I hope that they will actually pay me, because I have some doubts on how serious this company really is. Sure, many people seem to already got paid from Bux.to, but there are also some rumors about people complaining about not getting paid. As long as I don´t see my money in my Alertpay account, I must assume they are “scammers” (this sounds hard I know ;)

My current account balance is about $45 with most of the money generated from my 15 bought referrals (I broke even with this investment within only 14 days). I´ve also upgraded to a premium membership to receive payments faster (and give you more infos faster too). In theory this all sounds just too good to be true, let´s wait until Friday to see what´ll happen. I´m also waiting for the new Bux.to debit card, which will be available for all premium members as an payment option. The card will be an VISA Electron card, which you can use in many ATM around the world or for online payments. The Bux.to team promised to release some info about it soon, I´m waiting…

Next Friday will also be the time for requesting my first payment from Paid.vg, another good PTC site with an average of 10 daily ads and a nice referral program. You must know that you can only request payments at the 22nd of each month! My 4 referrals generated around $10 since I joined this site. I now have reached the $10 minimum payout limit :)

Paid.vg - Reached minimum payout limit!

WARNING: Paid.vg turned out to be a scam site. Please don’t join this site, the following post is only left here to show you how easy it is to get scammed…unfortunately.

Only 7 days after writing about my process on Paid.vg, I finally reached the $10 minimum payout limit today! My 4 referrals kept “working” for me the last days with a steady $0.30 each day. Now I´ve reached $10.22 (that´s a total of 1022 ads clicked) and I´m ready for cashout. Thank you!

One problem I´ve only realized today was the payment policy of Paid.vg. Unlike Bux.to, where you have to wait up to 60 business days before receiving your payments, Paid.vg pays within only 30 days. But that isn´t the problem here, the real problem is that you can only request a cashout on the 22nd of each month, meaning I have to wait until the end of next week…I hope I won´t miss that date for some reasons, because than I have to wait another month again before requesting my cash. I also hope they´ll really pay me (and don´t scam me), I´ve heard from people getting paid within only one day :)

Have a nice weekend,

Paid.vg - Approaching the minimum payout limit!

WARNING: Paid.vg turned out to be a scam site. Please don’t join this site, the following post is only left here to show you how easy it is to get scammed…unfortunately.

After many days I just checked back on my Paid.vg account to see how my stats were going. I first had to provide a new payment ID (like Bux.to they have also migrated from Paypal to Alertpay), but nothing special so far.

But then I went to my account statistics and was completely amazed. My earnings are nearing the $10 minimum payout limit, I currently have around $8.00 in my account. That kept me wondering, because I haven´t clicked that many ads lately. So I took a closer look and recognized that I had 4 referrals, which brought me over $6.00 within the last weeks! Thank you for all that “heavy” clicking :)

So I´m only 2 dollars away from requesting my first payment from Paid.vg, let´s see if they really pay. Also I don´t like Alertpay as a payment option (I can´t withdraw money directly to my bank account), I´m still looking forward to receive that payment soon, at least I can use it to buy more referrals on Bux.to (my best money maker so far) or even at Paid.vg!

Fourth Month Report!

The fourth month is already ower now and it seems the time is running. Many things happend in January and I can proudly say, I´ve never earned more since I started TMME. So let me tell you more about the dirty little details :)


Technical Statistics

After being a bit lazy with writing in December, I wrote 20 new articles the last month. Sure, many well-known bloggers write that amount within a week, but I´m no Problogger yet ;) I´ve also seen a return of this “investment”, I got a steady stream of search engine traffic to my blog. Content is king, this is the first rule any SEO expert will tell you, and it seems to be true.

My statcounter statistics showed me 967 unique visitors with 1282 pageviews, that´s an average of 31 unique visitors each day. I noticed a good portion of traffic from the Philippines with around 7%, I´m so international, hehe :)

I´m still having a Google PageRank of zero, seems they have forgotten me after the last PageRank upgrade at the beginning of this year. My Alexa rankings dropped to 597,415 points.


Earnings Statistics

Now for the best part of this report, my earnings. In December I made around $22, in November I made even less, only $13. But in January I made $40, so far the highest amount I´ve earned within the last four month. I´m really happy. Let me tell you where those earnings came from.

The biggest money maker I´ve added to my money list was PayPerPost which made me $20 alone for writing my first sponsored post. So far I haven´t written a second sponsored post, because I´m looking for the right ones that fits within my money making niche.

Another good income source really worth to mention was Bux.to. After buying my first 15 referrals (see here, here and here) from them, I broke even with my investments only around 2 weeks after my purchase. Now I´m in the profits with around $1.00 to $1.50 per day. The net profit from Bux.to was $9.16 and it keeps running. I also felt is was time for a second investment, some days ago I upgraded my membership to a premium account, not only for faster payments, but also for showing proof if Bux.to is legit or not.

There were also some changes on Subvert and Profit, the third best money maker. They recently changed their payouts from $0.50 to $1.00 per story you digg or “thumbs up” via StumbleUpon. I made $4.90 in January, $4.00 from my activity and the rest from my 10 referrals. Thank you my friends!

There were also some new additions the last month. The first thing was joining NetAudioAds, the company that wants to revolutionize the advertising market with audio ads. I´ve written about them earlier and they are about going live at these moments. So far I have´t made any money because those audio ads are still not playing. According to their last blog post, they´ll do a soft start and start playing audio ads in different phases. It could take some weeks before they really going full steam.

The second addition was Ucash.in, an newly started online service from the founders of Flixya that turns your links into cash. See my article about Ucash.in for more details and why you should join them now! I´ve already made $0.11 within the last days of January.

Conclusion and Outlook

The last month was a really good one. You can see, that my earnings increased and many new money making opportunities showed up. I´m really excited in seeing those audio ads start playing within the next week, seems like a good money maker.

At the moment I´m also trying to learn more about niche marketing. I´ve joined Commission Junction, a big affiliate program with many advertisers waiting for the hungry marketer. Currently I´m trying to become a member of the US-based eBay affiliate program. I´ve written some mails already, but they don´t accepted me as a meber yet. I´ve also read some great articles and ebooks about people seriously making $100 within one day! With hard work everything is possible ;)

Two month are left for my experiment and it seems I will reach my goal. I only have to earn 8$ to get a total of $100. Seems it´s time for buying a domain name, hehe…

Thanks to all my readers, friends and everybody who helped me in reaching these goals. Expect to see more articles and big updates about different money makers this month!

With the very best regards,
Querblogger

I made my first 20 Bucks with PayPerPost!

This info comes a bit late, but anyway, I´m happy to tell you that my first sponsored post from PayPerPost got approved. I made $20 (as every new member will get for the first post) and I´m really happy with it.

But it wasn´t that easy to get my approval. Actually the post got rejected before. I got a mail saying that the PPP team had to reject my submitted post because I´ve already written another sponsored one just before. The preceding article was about Pay-Per-Play and it wasn´t a sponsored one.

So I wrote a kindly mail to the PPP support and got a response within hours. They apologized for accidentaly rejecting my post and approved it later. I just want to mention that here, because the support is really great, friendly people and fast responses!

Subvert and Profit - First Referral Comissions!

So far I´ve referred 8 people to Subvert and Profit, the evil company that pays you for digging others stories. The last days I´ve seen that I got my first comissions from my referrals, but not very much, only $0.30 :) You´ll get 20% of your referral earnings, which means $0.10 per task (which is worth $0.50 each). Really nice :)

But it gets even better. Starting on January 16th you´ll get $1.00 per assigned task (they double their payments), but only 10% from your referrals earnings (actually nothing will change, you´ll get your $0.10 anyway).

I hope I can refer some of my readers, not only to make me rich hehe, but also because I can really suggest Subvert and Profit as an easy money resource (and btw, they really pay)!

See you,

Third Month Report!

Welcome back my fellow readers! I wish you all a very happy new year 2008! I know I´m a bit late with this report, but holidays were busy times…

Three month are over now and my blog is still on the way to get slightly more popular. Sure, it could be far better after three month (considering I´ve still a Pagerank of zero), but I think it needs time to evolve. I must admit I was a bit lazy last month, I´ve just posted around 10 articles, which isn´t enough for one month in my opinion, I hope this month it´ll be better.

Currently I have an average of 25 to 30 unique visitors each day, with most of them coming from search engines like Google and other blogs or websites where I left a link to my blog. What keeps me wondering is my Pagerank which is still at zero, I think Google doesn´t really like my blog very much (maybe I got penalized with a zero rank even before even seeing a higher ranking, because my blog deals only about making money and that kind???). My Alexa ranking is down to 732,845 and still falling slowly (which is a positive sign :)

My earnings for this month are somewhat better than for November. I´ve earned around $22 in the month December. If I add up all my earnings and expenses so far, I´m at $51,50 after half of the time, which isn´t bad at all if all works as good for the next three month. Let´s see what happens.

This time I won´t list each of my money makers here as in the last month´s reports, because the list gets bigger and bigger and it won´t be too useful for my readers. I just want to say some words about my best money makers.

The best money maker for december was Subvert and Profit, which made me $5. I even reached the $10 minimum payout limit this month and got paid from them via Paypal. The second one was Bux.to with around $2. I´ve noticed that the daily ads shown on Bux.to are constantely increasing, sometimes I´ve an average of 15 daily ads each worth $0.01 per click. Also Triond brought me around $1.50 for some articles I´ve published there some month ago, notice that I didn´t have published any new content there, those earnings are still the old articles alone ;) The last (and new) money maker I want to mention is Paid.vg which brought me around $1 within around 2 to 3 weeks of december, you can read more about it in this short review on Paid.vg!

This month I will tell you more about my progress in learning Forex Trading, a highly lucrative but also risky money making opportunity. I also want to write more articles in general, dealing about new money makers I´ll discover here and there. All in all I hope you´ll keep on reading my blog, I´ll do my best to keep you informed!

With Best Regards!

Subvert and Profit - Minimum Payout Reached

I just want to inform you that today I´ve reached the $10 minimum payout limit on Subvert and Profit. I´ve been a member there for around 2 month now, but these earnings were generated in around one and a half month.

Subvert and Profit is basically a site that pays you for either digging other peoples stories or voting for those articles with StumbleUpon. You´ll get $0.50 for each task from them, with an average of 10 tasks per month. A bit evil, but easy money in my opinion, although I won´t suggest anybody doing this for the long term (you may get banned from Digg or StumbleUpon).

I´ve just withdrew the $10 to my Paypal account and I´m currently waiting for the money to be send (it may take some days). I´ll inform you when I´ll get paid, so you can see that S&P isn´t a scam or that like.

See you,
Querblogger

Update: I´ve received my $10 payment with PayPal one day after withdrawing my balance! So, Subvert and Profit is definitely NO scam! Feel free to join them, it´s worth it.
