Referral Guide - Tips to make the most
Building a referral base is a great way to maximize your monthly earnings with GPT and PTC sites. Often times you will receive a certain percentage of your referral's earnings as a bonus. Some sites offer multiple levels of referral commission, while others offer a one time bonus for each referral.
There are many different ways to recruit new members. Be sure to try a few ideas listed below and see what works best for you.
Forums
Check the posting requirements of any forums you may frequent. If allowed, post a banner or referral link in your signature. Bring up sites you belong to whenever the conversation is relevant, you might get referrals from it! Don't sign up at forums for the sole purpose of posting your referral links because one of two things will surely happen:
1.) Your post will probably be deleted, and if it isn't...
2.)Others will view your post as what it is--SPAM, and you more than likely won't get any referrals from it.
Flyers
Flyers are an excellent way to grab the attention of other money-seekers such as yourself. There are many places to distribute your flyers. You can put them on bulletin boards around college campuses and apartment complexes, Hang them inside toilet stalls--I'm serious! Leave them at the bus stop or on the bus/train, Leave them in the pages of books and magazines a the library, Hang them inside phone booths, Put them on windshields in parking lots, or a thousand other places. Get creative! You can design your own, or use some premade flyers with your referral link. No matter how you choose to distribute these, you are sure to get the attention of others.
Business Cards
Just like flyers, business cards can bring in many referrals. Leave them everywhere, as mentioned above. Many businesses have a bulletin board or a drop-in for business cards. If you do any selling on eBay, you can include them in all of your packages for your buyers to see. You can design your own business cards and print them right off of your computer for free with Microsoft Office Publisher. Or, for a more professional look to your cards, be sure to check out VistaPrint. They will send you 250 free business cards for only the cost of shipping and handling. I have ordered business cards from VistaPrint and they look great!
Word of Mouth
Tell your friends and family! If they sign up they will likely be your best referrals. Not only do they have firsthand proof of how much money you're making with the site, but you can make recommendations on offers that worked well for you. Do keep in mind, while friends and family may become your referrals, they may not do so if they live in the same household or have the same IP address. Doing so will result in both of your accounts being deleted.
Social Networking Sites
Social Networking Sites like Myspace and Facebook give you great exposure because millions of people visit them every single day. Post blogs and bulletins showing your monthly earnings and how great you think your programs are. Include your referral link and you may just get a few hits. I have a banner on my Myspace page that displays my earnings and links to my referral page. Many sites offer an incentive to those members who display a referral banner on their page or friend the website.
