Pay To Surf=Pay To Be Advertised To
Posted on March 26, 2001 - Filed Under Earning Online, GPT PTR PTC | 1 Comment
The Bottom Line A (hopefully) opinion-free look at what exactly ‘Pay To’ programs are. For my opinions, see my advice in Explaining Online Paid To Programs.
Advertising is everywhere on the internet. Now companies are willing to pay you to invite even more advertising on to your monitor in one way or another.
