This site has quickly gained prominence among PTC sites. Of course, I'm talking about Neobux.com.
Truth be told, there's not much to review/critique. This site has a basic PTC setup; click adds, get paid. The site itself is small, in that you don't have links out the wazoo (a very nice feature, or lack there of!). The referal renting system is easy to use and understand. The forum is a nice place, and someone will help you with a problem if you ask. The only downside that I can possibly see is that the upgrades are WAY expensive, but I've seen reviews stating that they'll pay for themselves in a few months. Overall a great site, with more proof of payouts than I can say (There's a sub-forum specifically for people to post proof. It currently has...6874 topics, and a total of 32944 posts! Plus, there's TONS to be found off site) This is a site that EVERYONE should join!

Second Site: Trekpay.com
Hello, to the anyone reading this! Sorry about taking the month off, but stuff happened IRL that couldn't be avoided *cough*gettingreadyforcollege*cough*. But I'm back, and will still be randomly updating this when I can! For now, here's another copy-paste from my linkbucks forum thread:
This next site is called Trekpay.com
This site is still in the beta phase, but thanks to it's mother company of Trek Advertising, it can and does make payouts. Proof can be seen here:http://i627.photobucket.com/albums/tt354/Shadowsol93/TrekPayproof.jpg (this is the paypal payment confirmation sheet...thing, for those of you who don't use paypal.) Note: Again, this is not personal proof, it's someone elses.
For basic info: This site has a LOT of members (34092), but I think that most of them are dead accounts, as when I started using this site, I jumped from least active account, to 132nd most active account. The minimum payout threshold is $5.50. The only payout method is Paypal, but payment is instant, and there are no fees.
Trekpay works a little differently than most PTC sites. Rather than give you a link to its affiliates, then crediting you for $0.xx, it assigns a point value to each link. Either 1 or 3 points will be assigned to a link. Links that are 1 point are standard "click link, get credits," while the 3 point links require you to click a link on the page your sent to. And it can be any link. Even refreshing the page works. Anyways, once a week, between tuesday and thursday, Trekpay assigns a cash value per point to the points that you've earned. From what I've seen, ~100 points(really easy to get) ~ $.20. As I said before, payout is instant, which is always a plus. Payment can be requested anytime after you've reached $5.50. I highly recommend this site. And almost forgot, if you want to join, READ THE FAQ! It helps explain the site much more in depth than I have here.

First site: Inboxdollars.com
This was the first PTR/PTC site that I joined. It offers multiple ways to make money, including paid e-mails, paid surveys, cash offers, cash shopping, and cash games. While I have not tried out ALL of the services, I can say for certain that this is a good site, as long as you watch some of the cash offers, but more on that later.
As far as basic info goes, this site has been up for a number of years, and is still going strong. There is a plentitude of payment proof (just google image search: "inboxdollars" "proof of payment"), of which this is a perfect example:
http://i627.photobucket.com/albums/tt354/Shadowsol93/Inboxdollarsproof-1.jpg. (NOTE: This proof is not personal proof, it's someone elses.)
There is a $5.00 sign-up bonus, and minimum payout is currently at $30.00. The payout method is a check mailed to you. The frequency of payments, according to the Inbox Dollars FAQ is
"Check payments are processed on a Net-30 payment schedule. For example, if you request payment any day in the month of January, your payment is processed on March 1st. If the first of the month falls on a weekend or national holiday, payments are processed on the next working business day. Checks are mailed through the U. S. Postal Service and should typically arrive within a few business days. Please allow up to two weeks for your check to arrive. Delivery time depends on many factors, including your geographic location, seasonal increases in mail volume, and totally dependent upon the U.S. Postal Service."
Once you successfully request payment for the first time, your account is automatically upgraded to Gold. There are some nice benefits, one of which is the ability to request payment weekly rather than monthly.
Now, on to the earning methods...
The simplest earning method is to just sign up, and wait for the paid e-mails to start coming in. Each e-mail is worth $0.02 and you can get anywhere from 5 - 20 e-mails a day (I know, big variation). These emails are safe enough, but you should keep up your guard about the sites that they link to. Most are harmless (as long as you don't click anything), but you never know.
Another method offered is paid surveys. While you will not qualify for all of them, they are (mostly) relatively short, and are worth $0.50 each. This is personally my preferred method for earning on this site.
A third method that you can use is to complete the Cash Offers that they provide. While this is definitely the quickest way to make money, you have to keep your guard up while checking out some of these links. The type of offer can vary from signing up with another paid survey site, to signing up for a free trial of something, to those adds that say that you're eligible for a million dollars. Also, rather than track the link themselves, Inbox Dollars sends the advertisers a message requesting confirmation that the offer was completed. While most of these offers do confirm with in a day or two, some may take up to 30 days to respond. I wouldn't recommend using this method as your primary money source on this site, but that's just me.
As for the Cash Games, I can't say much on this. It takes you to an affiliate site, which looks legit. You automatically sign up when you sign up for Inbox Dollars, but the account is unactivated, and no one will contact you if you don't click the Cash Games link. If you actually want to make money off of these games, you have to upgrade your account, and put money into it, either $10 or $20, which is matched by the site. I'm not too sure just how trustable this site is, but I can't check as it won't let me upgrade my account, due to he laws of the state that I live in (if that tells you anything.)
The final method is Cash Shopping. I've yet to try this method, but what I've been able to discern is that it works as a cash back program. You click the add, buy crap from the site, and earn xx% cash back. The most is 10%, while the least is 0.4%. Like I said, I haven't tried this, so I can't recommend it.
Anyways, I highly recommend this site. Just keep your wits about you, and you'll be making money in no time!

I hate getting scammed, so now I'm doing something about it!
Hello to all those out there who want to make money online. I've got a question for you. How many times have you seen (or been referred to) a PTR, PTC, or paid survey site, and it's been a scam? It could be from anyone, anywhere, at any time.
Well, I've been mislead plenty of times, and I feel stupid for investing even a second of my time into these scams. Luckily for me, I didn't put any money into them (I'm not that stupid! =P ). But this got me thinking, why isn't there something dedicated to reviewing only confirmed paying sites? Well, it's here now!
The purpose of this blog is to list some of the sites that I've joined that I know are paying, and I will post proof of payment (whether or not this is PERSONAL proof will be stated in the post.) This will be accompanied by a review and a referral link. The review will include basic info, such as how many members the site has, how long it's been up, payment rate, minimum payout threshold, and other miscellaneous info.
This blog started as thread on the Linkbucks.com forum, but do to various reasons (and getting banned) I decided to move it here, where I have authority. Also, because I'd already started this thing, the first couple of sites\reviews will just be a copy\paste from the forum. Yeah, I know, I'm lazy.
I will be updating this blog with new sites every few days, so check back often! I'd like to give y'all a regular schedule, but there's stuff going on IRL right now that would make it hard to keep.
I've played the fool enough times. I want to help those looking for a real way to make money online, so that they don't waste their time (or worse, their hard earned money) on scam sites. Before I go, I wish to say what should be obvious: If it's too good to be true, it's fake. If the pay is an exorbitant ammount (eg. $1, $10, $100+ for an add or e-mail, or more than a few bucks per paid survey) it's a scam. If the minimum payout threshold is something like $1000+, it's someone trying to take advantage of you. Please, even if you don't believe me and don't read my posts, use some common sence. Research a site before you join.
