Maximise your earnings

Not all programs work in the same way and you need to create a system to ensure you are taking maximum advantage of each programs schemes. This means you need to join more than one scheme.

1. Time limits.

Most paid to surf programs have limits on the amount of time you can get paid for. For instance all advantage has a paid for limit of 25 hours per month. You and your referals do not get paid for any hours above this limit. It therefore makes sense to stop using the program when you have reached the maximum limit for the remainder of the month and switch to a different program.

2.Use the program that is of most use to the way you are using the internet.

Again the way you use the internet will affect what program you use. For instance one of the best and most reliable paid to surf programs, all advantage only pays you for actively surfing the internet. If you are checking your e-mail, downloading programs, saving sites or uploading files to your website for instance you are not getting paid. On the occassions when you are not actively surfing it therefore pays to use a program that pays you just to be connected to the internet. The best is probably Paysu but Desktop Dollars, Get paid 4 and Opinion bar also pay just for being connected to the internet.

3.Combine multiple but different and complementary programs.

To maximise your earnings you should combine paid to surf, paid for your homepage, paid to listen to the radio, paid to use a screensaver, paid for your computers idle time, paid to answer surveys and paid to read e-mail:

Paid to Surf

There are now hundreds of paid to surf programmes. I have found the best to be all advantage, paysu and jotter. To see a list of some of the most popular check out refmaker.

 

Paid for your homepage

The best program that pays you for using them as a homepage is Paysu. As this is also a fully fledged and excellent paid to surf program it makes sense to have them as your first choice. However ignifuge also operates as a standalone home page program.

Paid to listen to the radio

There are two paid to listen to the radio programs. Radiofreecash and cash radio.

Paid to use a screensaver

When you are having a break from your computer but are not switching it off, you may as well use a screen saver that pays you. Waveu is the best program offering this facility at the moment.

Paid for computers idle time

Process tree uses your computers idle time and pays you for this. However it is currently being tested and is not yet active.

Paid to answer surveys

There are many paid to answer survey programs at the moment. Most seem to be based in the US and as such if you live outside the US you are unlikely to have the opportunity to complete many surveys and therefore get paid. You therefore need to join as many programs as possible and be as flexible as you can on submitting your personal profile. Companies paying you to complete surveys include:

Onesight

mbs research

i-cameo

Paid to read e-mail

There are several paid to read e-mail programs most of which send only a few e-mails per week and pay just a few cents. You won't get rich by joining just one of these schemes. However, it does appear to be free money for doing very little. All you have to do is read a short e-mail and click on the link at the bottom. To maximise your earnings you need to join as many programs as possible. Use your e-mail program such as netscape e-mail or microsoft outlook to automatically filter this e-mail to a seperate folder so that you can deal with them in bulk and to seperate them from your normal e-mail. Dont forget to use a program such as Paysu as your paid to surf program while doing this.

4. Run two or more programmes at the same time

Whilst it is not practical to have your computer screen covered in ad bars you may be able run more than one programme at the same time. Not all programs will run at the same time without problems and it may require experimentation to see which ones are compatible. All advantage tends to shut down when it detects other adbars. Both Dotad and valuepay which occupy a small rectangle in the top right corner would appear to be ideal companions for a more traditional adbar. Spedia, get paid 4 and desktop dollars apparently work well together.

5. Concentrate on your direct referals

Although all schemes have several referal levels the most inportant because it's the only one you can influence is your direct referals. This is because most people signing up will only be doing so to earn a bit of extra cash and will not put in the effort to recruit other members. You should therefore concentrate on schemes that pay the highest to your own and your direct referals. This consideration favors Net-4-Biz (direct referal rate of 50%), Spedia & TheMail (direct referal rate of 25%) , AllCommunity & Getpaid4 (direct referal rate of 10%).

 

As your earnings from these programs rely very much on your referals let them know how to maximise their earnings. The more they earn the more you will earn. Remember they may not have the same interest or inclination as you or may be too busy to bother about these schemes unless you make it easy for them to make as much money as possible.
