Check the Site Before Invest
There is some important step to check the site before invest.
1)
Don’t invest in any site less than 2 months old
Yes, don’t invest in any site less than 2 months old.
Why is this important?
This is a test for the new site.
The first two month is very important,
as some new site will just purchase a very cheap share hosting while they start,
and might closed the site and run away with all money while their 1 month hosting finish.
Site that already have 1 month old might already have many member,
which forced them change into dedicated server,
which is much more expensive than a shared hosting.
An admin that really want to earn will purchase it,
while scam admin will just closed and run away.
There is important task in second month too.
Some admin might already purchased a dedicated server,
but at the end of second month,
they found that their earning not enough to cover the dedicated server fees,
which might closed the site at that time.
By combine of all this fact,
that make the first 2 month of the site very important.
Don’t invest any PTC site that less than 2 months old.
2)
Search the Site Before Invest
Within the first 2 month “test”,
search the site name with any search engine.
In this way,
you can know whether the site have any bad comment or not.
You can search about the site in GPT forum, PTC forum or any blog.
You can found any bad comment about the site by this way.
If the site is full of bad comment,
like the site not paying, the site not giving referral after purchase, or any bad comment,
you might want to avoid the site from invest.
3)
Research Before Join
Before you join any site,
you might want to do some research to avoid getting scam from the site (included not getting money after reach minimum payout).
One of the good ways is search the site with search engine.
You can also get information of that site by some forum, blog or some site too.
Besides,
you must read clearly their Terms of Services (TOS) and Frequent Asked Question (FAQ) before join.
You can learn about how much earn per click, any restriction and their paying date.
Any site with high payout and/or slow pay rate (pay after 30 days or more) is suitable for slow earn.
To avoid get scam, any new site like this should be review clearly before join,
included give it the 2 months test.
Only join slow paying site that have more than 2 months old.
Any site with low payout and fast paying (Normally pay within one week) is suitable for fast earn.
Beside than site that already full of bad comment,
it worth you to join and try for that fast earn.
4)
How to Avoid Your Account From Being Hacked
There is some ways to avoid your account from being hacked.
Don’t using same password.
This applies for all PTC site and also your other account password (included payment processor and email account)
Most PTC use unencrypted password,
which can easy spy by anyone.
DON’T USE SAME PASSWORD FOR YOUR PTC ACCOUNT AND PAYMENT PROCESSOR ACCOUNT! Try to use different username from all PTC.
This is advice from some experience clicker.
This is work best by combining with avoid using same password.
Don’t writing you password in word editor and save in your computer.
If you write down your password in a paper,
you might only hacked by you sister or your family;
but if you write down in any word editor (eg: NotePad),
and save it inside your computer,
this add a chance to hacker that hacked into your computer to get that password.
Try to log out and delete cookies after you finish.
PTC site has week unencrypted password,
which is vulnerable to anyone who can view your cookies (Not the one can eat).
Hacker and spyware can spy you password easily in cookies.
Don’t log in your account by using not your computer,
especially public computer.
This act not only will cause your account having problem (admin of the site might delete your account),
but also give chance to any hacker that using public computer.
Summary
Remember to research a site before joining.
Check the site age, search it in search engine before invest.
Some fast paying site is worth to try even it’s new,
but slow paying site (included site that very slow to reach payout) not worth if it’s new,
as they might close before you reach payout.
