This section is for people who are beginners in ptc sites and i hope that this "vocabulary" will help them to understand better and quicker what's going on in ptc world.I remember myself when i first started to deal with ptc sites that i had many questions of what some words or expressions mean.So let's start my friends :
- Cashout : The action when we have reached the minimum amount of money that is required and we want to request to withdraw our money from a ptc site
- Downline : This is the term that ptc sites use to describe the referalls that have registered under you
- Upline : This is the person who referred you at the ptc site you use.You are his refferal
- Convert to ads : This is the processor to convert your money from your account balance into ads in case you want to advertise something at the ptc site
- Promotion tools : These are the banners or the links that each ptc site provides to you as to advertise it and with that way to gain referrals too
- Upgrade : This is the action when you use money from your account balance or money from your paypal/alertpay account as you to move from free member level at a ptc site to the next membership level where you will have also more benefits
- Paid to read(PTR) : Some ptc sites have also that option for you as to gain money.Instead of viewing ads you read emails and get paid for that
- Paid to sign up(PTSU) : Another option also where you can gain money by singing up in programms or other ptc sites
- Rented referrals : Rented referrals are referals who you can rent for a limited time.Most ptc sites offer rented referrals for one month
- Recycle referrals : This is an action for rented referrals who you can replace them with others if they arent active by paying a little amount of your money
- Scam : This word is used to describe ptc sites that have closed without paying their members and have cheated on them.These sites go straight to the "black list"
- Message center : This is the place where the admin or the owner of the ptc site informs you for any changes about the ptc site or any news in general
- Standard members : Standard members are considered the free members
- Traffic exchange : Many ptc sites have that option.You view ads but instead of earning money you get "traffic" (visitors) to your own website or blog
- Pin code : Some ptc sites ask for one more code as an extra measure for your safety.That code would be required from you at the time you ask your payout so remember it well
- Lottery : Some ptc sites give you the option to buy a ticket or more at a low price and take place at an everyday contest where the winners gain money on their account balance,purchase balance or other benefits
- Tos : With that term ptc sites include their rules that you have to read before you register on any site.Remember always to follow them as not to get banned from the site
