Spotlight On: AdPaid

AdPaid, which has long been a favorite site of mine and has some of the nicest admins around (one of which unfortunately recently retired), has been going through some server issues in recent months but that appears to have been resolved now and the site is back up and running as usual. That's great, because they have always been reliable and always paid fast, with a super low $3 minimum cashout.

It's also been one of my favorites because for many years they have always had a lot of regular paid emails sent to members. Apparently the paid email system is still being worked on, but one of the admins recently posted that it should be back up and running very soon, so that's good news as well.

Here's the basic 411 on AdPaid:

• It's been online and paying since May 2004
• $3 minimum cashout ($5 for gift certificates)
• Payment via PayPal, or Amazon/BestBuy/Wal-Mart gift certificates within 7 days
• PTC, PTS, paid surveys, & paid e-mails
• 6 referral levels
• Points converted to cash monthly
• Upgrade to earn more

CashTextAds

I've actually been a member of CashTextAds for a very long time, but for some reason I kept forgetting to add it to the list. Rather than really being an actual PTC, CashTextAds is a text ad exchange but it's also different from a lot of other text ad exchanges. Here, you receive points to view ads, which can then be converted to cash and paid out.

There is a 500 point ($0.50) signup bonus, and minimum cashout is $3 by AlertPay, PayPal, SolidTrustPay, or Liberty Reserve. There is a 10% cashout fee.

You earn 0.5 to 1 point per ad viewed (1000 points = $1). You can of course upgrade to earn more, and you earn 25 points for every referral.

This would also be a VERY good place to advertise your pages and links for programs like ClixSense, MatrixMails, WordLinx, LinkGrand, etc.

Members are welcome here from all countries. Check out CashTextAds today (and have a great weekend)!

LinkGrand

And here's yet ANOTHER great paid to click site for today (I've actually got more, but we'll just stick with these three for today!).

LinkGrand not only generally has BUNCHES of ads to click and read every day, but it's a little different than the others in that there's no upgrade package available - every member gets access to the same number of ads! The other side of the coin to this is that they pay what equals to 3 cents per every ten links you view. Honestly, I've never been there that there haven't been lots and lots of ads to click.

You can cash out at any time you reach the $5 minimum, payment is by PayPal, and they state they pay within 24 hours (nice!). I'm pretty certain it's open to all international members; as long as you have a PayPal account, you can earn money here!

LinkGrand has one referral level of 30% for referrals' viewed ads, and pays 10% on ads purchased by your referrals.

I kinda get a big kick out of this one 'cos the FAQ shows the admin's sense of humor well, it always makes me laugh to read it so even though I've read it several times, I click over there again sometimes to get a giggle.

In any case, you can't go wrong with this one - it's totally free and ONLY free, all you have to do is sign up and review ads and make money, and I know many folks who are making a nice extra income with this and the other clicking and paid e-mail opportunities alone listed here on the site - so go for it! Join LinkGrand today!

UPDATE 06/27/2010: LinkGrand is not only paying better than ever in recent months, but recently unveiled an awesome upgrade option for premium members - $10 yearly or $20 lifetime (and never have to pay again if you purchase the lifetime). This will be yet another upgrade I'll be recommending along with the MatrixMails, ClixSense and WordLinx upgrades for sure!

UPDATED AGAIN - 06/24/2012: Some changes to the upgrade options at LinkGrand. Not sure when this went into effect (sometime earlier in the year, I imagine), but the upgrade option prices are now $5 for four months, $12 for two years, or $25 lifetime. The lifetime upgrade is still a very good deal in my opinion - premium members get lots more ads - and to never have to pay to upgrade again is great. It's also considerably less expensive than some other similar sites that have lifetime upgrades.

Now that I've been upgraded for some time now and enjoyed the benefits of watching my earnings increase notably faster - and especially since LinkGrand's cashout remains $5, which means I get to that $5 much quicker upgraded - I'd not want to downgrade my account with LinkGrand even if I didn't have the lifetime upgrade and could!

Not on board with this great program yet? Join LinkGrand today!

WordLinx

I haven't talked about any click-only sites in a while, and I've actually got several to get to reviewing here soon. Those of you who like the easy lazy way with the clicking sites will really like this one!

WordLinx works very similar to ClixSense. Members are paid for visiting advertisers' websites for 20 seconds. Big plus? $0.01 or more per click with a free basic account - that's pretty great for a click site. As with many click sites, you can upgrade and will likely get more ads to click and review (several upgrade plans, but the $10/year verified member upgrade is well worth it and VERY reasonable - that's $10 a YEAR, not per month!).

Payout is a low $10. Another big plus - payouts are usually honored within 48 hours of request. You must have a PayPal account in order to be paid. Optional earnings may be converted to advert credits. International members are welcome.

More about WordLinx:

• Online and paying since 2003
• $0.05 bonus per referral, 5% of earnings/ad sales, $0.50 per upgraded referrals (3 levels)
• Awarded the Diamond Seal of Approval from BeenPaid.com

UPDATED 06/24/2012: Lots of changes at WordLinx since I initially posted this. Cashout is still $10 and generally through PayPal, but WordLinx is now also paying via Payza (formerly AlertPay) with some limitations.

The referral structure has also changed, now offering $0.01 bonus per referral x10 levels, up to 10% of earnings & ad sales, up to $1.00 per upgraded referral (3 levels).

RECOMMENDED UPGRADE: $15 (beginning June 2012) for an entire year gives you many more ads to view & other benefits. Lifetime & other upgrade options are also available.
It's a pretty steady stream of ads daily, AND they also send paid e-mails. And some nice referral earnings if you can get referrals (we're going to talk about all that soon too). This may well be one I wind up upgrading on, as I know some folks who are making a nice chunk of change monthly here that way.

If you like the click sites, this is one you won't want to miss! Join WordLinx today!

DonkeyMails

Today's find is a good one! DonkeyMails has a lot of the things I like best in a "get paid to" site because it has many of the laziest & easiest ways to rack up some cash - LOTS of paid emails and paid to click options - which is the way I like it best, lazy & easy! This site also has a really good reputation in the online community as one with an attentive owner & good payment history, so more pluses there!

UPDATED 03/02/2013: Minimum cashout is small - $1 minimum for PayPal and Payza, $0.01 for Liberty Reserve. You can request payout whenever and they usually pay about once a week, but definitely within 30 days. DonkeyMails has five referral levels (5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, & 1%).

Members are accepted from these countries: AUSTRALIA, AUSTRIA, BELGIUM, CANADA, DENMARK, FINLAND, FRANCE, GERMANY, GREAT BRITAIN, GREECE, ICELAND, IRELAND, ITALY, NETHERLANDS, NEW ZEALAND, NORWAY, PORTUGAL, SOUTH KOREA, SPAIN, SWEDEN, SWITZERLAND, UNITED KINGDOM, UNITED STATES.

I joined last week and already have gotten bunches and bunches of paid emails, and there always seem to be new paid to click opportunities on site as well, so I am liking this one a lot! Hope you will too! Join DonkeyMails today!

No-Minimum.com

No-Minimum.com is another one that has impressed me and I've grown to like a lot in a very short time. It's also another one that has had a lot of good feedback from members about good payment history. Low minimum payouts, fast payouts, & word that a place has a good history of paying members impresses me a lot!

UPDATED 03/02/2013: There is an only $1 minimum payout via PayPal, Payza, and Liberty Reserve, with payments usually made weekly. You can request payment anytime - payment will be made within 30 days, but the site states that under normal circumstances payment are made once a week.

They also have lots of pay to click ads and other opportunities to make cash other ways besides doing just offers, and they have some games as well. I'm also getting a lot of paid emails from them already. And, they accept all international members! Six referral levels here (5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1%, & 1%).

So what have you got to lose? Go make some money at No-Minimum.com!

If I get a chance to this weekend, I will update on my current earnings. If not, look for that soon, and in any case, I'll be back on Monday with more new sites you can scrounge up a little extra cash on!

Have a great weekend!

AdPaid

As I've mentioned many times before, I have a particular affinity for the sites that offer paid emails and paid to click ads 'cos for someone who is into doing this the laziest and easiest ways possible (or in my case, just don't have a ton of extra spare time), those are the easiest ways to rack up a little spare change daily just by reading a few paid mails and reviewing a few ads every day for a little while. Granted, it takes a little longer for the pay to add up in those cases as opposed to paid offers and such, but it's very little work and every cent adds up and counts anyway, so what the heck, right?

So the other day I came across AdPaid, after having seen some very positive remarks about their payment history and the site in general from one of their members, and immediately I liked it. The site's laid out very well, information is easy understand - lots of things that are always big pluses about paid to do stuff sites. They also have paid to click, paid offers, and other options to wrangle up some dough. Also, within a few hours, I had already gotten several paid emails, so that impressed me further.

Another big plus for AdPaid - once you reach the minimum ($3) or more for cashout ($5 for gift certificates), you can request payment anytime and they pay within at least seven days... although they also say on the site that in most circumstances, it's within 48 hours. Excellent!

UPDATED 03/02/2013: Payment is through PayPal (e-Gold is no longer an option), or they also offer Amazon, Wal-Mart, and Best Buy gift certificates. AdPaid is open to members in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and the United States.

More on AdPaid (updated info 06/13/2009):

• 6 referral levels
• Points are converted to cash monthly
• Awarded the Diamond Seal of Approval from BeenPaid.com
• Online and paying since May 2004

AdPaid is fabulous and as of this update (06/13/2009), I have been paid twice by this site and it is an ongoing favorite. If you're not already a member, join AdPaid today!

SendEarnings

SendEarnings is along the same lines as InboxDollars, but I get different paid emails from them than I do InboxDollars. It is another multi-activity site that offers surveys, shopping, offers & games as well as the paid emails.

This one is also a $30 minimum and by check only, but you can request a check anytime you make the $30 minimum. UPDATED 06/25/2012: US membership recommended only at this time (non-US members are welcome, but opportunities for non-US members are very limited).

SendEarnings has one referral level (10%) and you are upgraded to a free Gold membership after your first cashout.

$5 signup bonus on this one too, and the paid emails do come in pretty regularly! Join SendEarnings today!

Inbox Dollars

Inbox Dollars is another multi-activity site that I think is pretty cool. It offers cash surveys, cash offers, cash games, and cash shopping as well as paid e-mails (which is mainly what I've used it for thus far). There was a $5 signup bonus when I joined.

You have to have a minimum $30 balance to request a check, and they do pay by check only, no PayPal or direct deposit. You can request a check anytime you reach the $30 minimum. UPDATED 06/25/2012: US membership recommended only at this time (non-US members are welcome, but opportunities for non-US members are very limited).

One referral level of 10% here, and you will be upgraded to a free Gold membership after your first cashout.

I find that the paid emails come in pretty regularly so on that alone I'm recommending them, but certainly if you have the time or are interested in earning more, there's plenty of opportunities to do so. Check out InboxDollars today!

Hits4Pay & Deals 'n Cash

I am a member of both Hits4Pay & Deals 'n Cash, but it seems I only get mails from one since I'm signed up with both (they appear to be run by the same company) so I guess my recommendation would be make more use of Hits4Pay (since it has the larger signup bonus and less payout minimum). I've been hanging onto the Deals 'n Cash account anyway just on the off chance something else comes through them. (UPDATE: After I wrote this, I found I had some separate ones at Deals 'n Cash after all!)

Hits4Pay has a (UPDATED 06/24/2012) $5 signup bonus and if your balance is $25 or more at the end of the month, they will zero out the account and pay you via PayPal. Same thing with Deals 'n Cash with signup bonus of $5, except with a $30 minimum payout, same as above with PayPal. (The FAQ still talks about cutting and mailing checks, but apparently they went to payments by PayPal only sometime last year.)

Deals 'n Cash is available to members in the US, Canada, UK, and Australia. Probably the same for Hits4Pay though I am not positive (although apparently it is open to some outside the US).

Hits4Pay details:

• Earn $0.02 per ad viewed, and $0.01 per referrals' ads viewed
• Two referral levels (earn $0.01 per ad viewed on both referral levels)

Deals 'n Cash details:

• Earn up to $0.05 per ad viewed, and $0.02 per referrals' ads viewed
• One referral level ($0.02 per every referral ad viewed)
  

They send paid email notifications just about every day and I really enjoy doing them, it's easy and nothing I don't already do anyway. It'll take me a while to hit that minimum, but it'll be $25 I didn't have before when it's time! At this point, I highly recommend signing up with Hits4Pay & Deals 'n Cash both!
