ally staying on each site for about 20 seconds or so, and then moving onto the next one. If it is a manual surf, you’ll have to click on it yourself after the allotted time is up to move on to view the next site.

With all of these programs, you’ll usually be offered money, points, or credits to refer others to use the programs as well. Customarily, you will make a commission, a percentage of what your referrals earn. Many of the sites will show you who your referrals are and reveal to you their e-mail addresses. You can e-mail your down line with helpful tips and tricks to make more money with the program and also let them know about other programs they can join under you. You can also utilize surf sites to promote other GPT’s by placing your referral link in the site rotation. Other popular ways to build a down line are to place your referral links on your personal web pages, in your e-mail signature, and post about them on work at home message boards.

GPT’s won’t make you rich, but if utilized efficiently, as outlined here, they can definitely bring in some good extra spending money. They require minimal time and effort for the payoff they provide. Certainly there may be a slight risk in that these programs could potentially disappear without a trace and your earnings

If you’ve been scouring the work at home scene looking for a way to make money online, there’s no doubt you’ve seen the initials “GPT.” If you’re anything like me, all the foreign terms and initials may seem a bit intimidating at first and you may feel like everyone is speaking in a foreign language. Well, never fear, I’ll explain GPT’s and how you can make money with them!

GPT stands for “Get Paid To.” This can be Get Paid to Read E-mail, Get Paid to Complete Offers, Get Paid to Shop, or even Get Paid to Surf. Some GPT’s are programs that encompass only one of these options. Others include 2, 3, or sometimes all 4 of them.

I’ll start with “get paid to read e-mail.” These are programs you join with the understanding that you will be sent regular e-mails from the program containing messages from advertisers. My first suggestion here is to create a new e-mail address for use only for GPT’s. These programs can result in a lot of spam, or bulk, e-mails. Most programs pay you a few cents per e-mail read. You simply open the e-mail and click to confirm that you read it. The process takes only a few seconds. You will often be offered more money to take the advertiser up on whatever offer you are reading about. You may be offered $5.00 to sign up for a free trial, or $10.00 to order a $6.00 product. Often, these are offers that must be canceled in the future to avoid further charges. There are some get paid to read e-mail programs that pay you in points rather than cash. The points can later be traded in for gift certificates to just about any major retailer or restaurant. My Points is one such program. It also has a very good reputation and has been operating for a long time. With My Points, you can trade in your points for gift certificates as soon as you have enough points to claim one. With programs that pay you in cash, you must read the terms and conditions on the program carefully. Some require a $10 minimum to cash out and be paid while others require as much as $40 or $50 to be paid.

“Get paid to complete offers” programs are similar to get paid to read programs. However, you visit the program’s website in order to complete the offers. They will usually list the offers, what you must do to complete them, and how much you will be paid. They range from completely free “surveys” to ordering free trials and products. Sometimes you will have to pay the shipping for free trial offers or you may be required to cancel within the allotted time if you do not wish to pay anything further. Most GPT programs ask that participants only sign up for offers they are actually interested in rather than simply signing up and canceling every offer. My suggestions here are to always read the terms and conditions no matter how tedious it is to do so or how fine the print is. The terms and conditions will tell you how you must cancel and when you must do so. Sometimes these can be tricky. For instance, some companies will only allow you to cancel by phone. So if you do not read the terms and conditions, you may attempt to cancel online and then end up being charged for the item. I also suggest keeping a notebook of each offer completed, the date completed, and the date you need to cancel by if applicable. You’ll also want to clear cookies between each offer done to ensure the offer goes through properly. You can make some very decent money from the get paid to complete offer programs as long as you take the time to read the terms and conditions on both the paid to complete offer site and the advertisers’ sites. Offers typically take a few days to be put through because the program only pays out to the participant once they have been paid by the advertiser, so it will take some time for you to see the money added to your account. Most programs pay you monthly via check or Paypal.

Many get paid to complete offer and get paid to read e-mail sites also offer a “get paid to shop” option. If you shop through their site, meaning you click the link to your favorite store on their site, you will receive either a flat fee or a percentage of what you spend back. If you were planning to buy something anyway, this is a great way to get a discount! Just make sure what you are receiving back covers more than just shipping. If all it covers are your shipping costs you may be better off just buying the item at a store. So, shop around. Each site usually has many stores to shop with. See which is offering the most money!

Some people consider “get paid to surf” sites GPT’s, so I’ll include them here. Some also consider them more closely related to the HYIP, but that’s a whole other set of initials and I’ll save those for another article. Anyway, get paid to surf sites are sites you sign on with to surf advertisers’ sites for credits. In most cases, these credits can be turned in for cash or they can be spent to put your own website in the surf rotation. You gain credits for every site you surf. This usually consist of logging on to the website and clicking a “surf now” link. That will begin the surf rotation. If it is an auto surf, you’ll simply see the sites popping up on your monitor with a counter, usually staying on each site for about 20 seconds or so, and then moving onto the next one. If it is a manual surf, you’ll have to click on it yourself after the allotted time is up to move on to view the next site.

Certainly there may be a slight risk in that these programs could potentially disappear without a trace and your earnings for the month with them. However, since you are not required to deposit any money into these sites, the risk, in my eyes, is minimal. With get paid to read and get paid to complete offer programs, their money is made by the advertisers each time an offer is completed so they shouldn’t run out of money. Surf sites are a bit more risky and have been known to disappear from time to time. I do not recommend spending money to upgrade surf accounts unless you are using them strictly to advertise or promote your website. I would not consider investing money into them in order to make a large sum back. In my opinion, a free account works just fine. If these mini business ventures sound enticing to you now that you are versed in this area of making money online, try your hand at some GPT’s. It’s fun and exciting to watch your earnings build day to day!
