"Surfing for Pay" Portfolio Management

Or...
How To Get Paid For Doing Nothing


Can you really get paid to read email, or run programs that deliver ads to your desktop?

Yes, although it's getting more difficult every month.

Aren't these programs just scams?

No - I have the check stubs to prove it -- I love showing them to skeptical friends... the ones who told me they "didn't believe a word of it..." when I broached the subject... there's nothing quite like a handful of checks to convince folks.

Ain't life grand?

In this wired world, advertisers quickly realized they could benefit by delivering their messages directly to those who have asked for them. So valuable is this ability that these same advertisers are more than willing to pay for the privilege!

Most of us don't quite "get it" when we get involved with "get paid to surf" programs. We accept as gospel that we have to download banner-streaming viewbars and run them ad nauseum.

That doing this works is beside the point. I don't know about you, but I have better things to do with my computer than run half a dozen viewbars all day long. (Been there, done that.)

So your first goal is to arrive at a point where you do not have to run "viewbars" which stream banners mindlessly across your desktop, or clutter up your e-mail with advertising.

You need to find a few programs that (1) don't mess up your computer, (2) don't crash every five minutes, and (3) pay at least $0.25 an hour. You can run them for 6 or 7 months, while you establish additional income streams by joining programs that don't require you to run anything.

At that point, you can remove the viewbars from your system and watch while the cash takes care of itself.

How long this process takes depends entirely upon your determination, and your skill as a promoter.

For example, a common approach to building long-term income from PPPs ("Programs Paying Pennies") is to join "Get Paid to Read E-Mail" programs, and send the resulting paid email to a site that pays users to read and send mail. Here's a step by step guide:

  • Join zWallet, so that you can get paid to read your email. This increases the amount you will be paid for each &Get Paid to Read" message you receive.

    WARNING: There are some indications that zWallet may be a scam. Because of this, Ghostsurfers (see below) has de-listed the program until the matter can be clarified.

  • Then join EMailPaysU and use your new zWallet address to receive the paid email. By the way - this program offers an outstanding way for members to develop their downlines. After you've joined, investigate Gold Membership it is truly worth its weight in gold!
  • Join AhMoola, using the same zWallet address. You can join as many of these programs as you wish, of course. Just make sure you use your zWallet account for all of them. Here are a few more to consider:
  • AvaMail
  • Commission Marketing
  • Consumer Direct
  • (See Ghostsurfers for the most comprehensive list of these programs on the net, and join as many as you feel you can handle.)
The income from these PPPs, however, is only a fraction of what can be earned. The real potential comes from building a large downline, and from understanding the long-term benefits of doing so. For instance, I am promoting my PPP downlines by providing you with the links above, because I will benefit to a certain degree when you participate in my programs.

This is a good example of how you can market your programs by providing timely advice to others about how to earn a few bucks, while you benefit directly. That's a perfect "win win" solution!

How do you find the gems when there are hundreds of programs competing for your time and attention?

(Maestro! Drum roll!)

  • Top 40 Business Opportunities to the rescue! Here's where you will find the cream of the crop, rated by over 25,000 active Ghostsurfers. Not only will you find the best programs listed here, but negative feedback as well... Ghostsurfers are a motivated bunch - this is information you can take straight to the bank.

Here's the best feature of S4P programs... They all offer referral incentives, and most of them will pay you whether you participate or not, as long as your referrals do! (I earn about $15 a month from one program I don't run anymore, just from referrals! Have I gotten your attention yet?)

Three things are immediately apparent:

  1. You need a system which can manage hundreds of these programs;
  2. You need to promote this system to develop lots of referrals!
  3. You need to use the Internet to recruit these referrals, because nothing is quite as unpleasant as trying to recruit friends and family... those "skeptics" I mentioned earlier who think we're all quite daft...
  • Ghostsurfers ranks head and shoulders above all of the other portfolio management systems on the net. There is, quite literally, nothing on the net that even approaches Ghostsurfers!

This is where you should begin if you're serious about developing the multiple income streams you need to become profitably involved in any sort of network marketing. (Monthly income of $1000.00 or more can be established within 12 months!) Ghostsurfers enjoy features other systems make you to pay for:

A free website you can use to generate referrals

Over 800 programs!

  • easy to join
  • easy to track
  • easy to manage

Fully programmable public website for promoting your programs

24 hour support through Ghostsurfers' Chat

Free Mentoring for as long as you want it.

This is the strongest -- and ultimately the most valuable -- feature, even though most Ghostsurfers don't realized it.

Promotional support - What works, what doesn't

Shared revenue from Ghostsurfers.com advertising

...and a lot more!

Join Ghostsurfers and promote it aggressively! The opportunity to establish a relationship of trust and cooperation with your Ghostsurfers downline is invaluable. The name of the game is market penetration, and it's inherent in the Ghostsurfers management system.

The "surf for pay" and "get paid for..." programs are simply a means to an end. Build a large referral base, and communicate with your members regularly and effectively.

Teach them how to maximize their efforts by sharing your experiences with them even as I am sharing mine with you.

If you do this honestly and often, your members will follow you into programs that can return more cash in a month than any "surf for pay" program will in a year. THAT is why I love Ghostsurfers!

US Mailing Address will provide you with an American mailing address, and show you how to obtain other documentation required to participate in Surf-4-Pay programs designated for United States Residents Only!

Other Portfolio Managers I've found useful...

  • PaidMania The nicest feature here is the "Virtual Start Page" rotator. A good many of the "surf for pay" programs on the net involve portal sites that pay you either per visit, or for clickthroughs to their advertisers' sites. With PaidMania, you can list your membership IDs for these sites, and PaidMania will rotate you through them as often as the rules allow, and maximize your income potential for all of them without having to change your home page every five minutes. Recommendation: Join and use passive promotion - i.e. links from your website(s).

  • Refer Central will definitely build referrals for you, but only through Elite membership, which also offers propagation of your referral IDs through infinity. Since Ghostsurfers gives you this without cost, my recommendation is that you build a free RefCentral site to provide exposure for your portfolio and skip Elite membership. Passive promotion.

Here are a few additional portfolio managers. They're worth joining for the exposure they offer for your programs, but I think aggressive promotion is a waste of time, given the power of Ghostsurfers. Join, set them up, link to them and forget them. Frankly, I think they are all a waste of time, but some disagree. My experience has shown that none of the S4P downline clubs I've seen can even come close to offering the power and versatility of Ghostsurfers.
