Make Money Online

This is going to be a controversial site. Depending on who you are and what side you are on. Either a advertiser or a clicker. We are going to go ahead and review this site since so many are talking about this site. I am a little skeptical about this site and very curious how it is going to play out.

When I signed up on the site I received this in my inbox:

Interesting 'so I test the 'Ad Viewer'. And this is how it works:

You will see a 'grid' of 54 advertisements. In this grid you will see some ads flash or light up. A few of these ads will have a countdown timer. You will see large numbers counting down. When you see a ad that counts down, you must click on it. Once you click on it, you must wait till the ad fully loads. Once the ad has loaded and you are done with the site, you click 'close' on the top right corner of the ad. Then the timer will start again. When you have clicked on all the ads that have the timer countdown displayed you have successfully completed the grid and you will earn $0.30 for the completion. If you missed a timer (like I did) you will have to do it over.

A little hint, if your browser window isn't showing all the ads in your window you might have to adjust the size of the page so all 54 ads will show and you wont miss the timer. In order to do that just hold down the CTRL key + move the roller on your mouse. And this will adjust the page and make it smaller or bigger so you can see where and when the timer shows up. If you don't, you will miss the timer and you have to try again. Some of you might not have this problem, some might.

So I completed my 5 grids and I was awarded a total of $1.50 (5 X $0.30), which is currently showing 'pending'. Then I go to do more view packs and I get this message:

Unfortunately, due to the extremely high response our site has received, we have completely sold out of view packs. We now must focus on marketing the Ad Packs for advertisers. You can help by purchasing advertisements for your business or by referring advertisers. We will be creating and launching campaigns on search engines and other web properties.

We will begin offering View Packs again as quickly as possible.

So, what I am going to do is put this site on the pending list, like I do with all of my controversial and new sites. I will show you the pros and cons, like always'and let you decide whether or not this site is a legitimate site.

PROS:

1. Paying - They are paying and many say they were paid fast.

2. All Can Join - As long as you are 18 years or older you can join.

3. A Advertiser's Paradise? - When you have popular sites, it creates great oppurtunities for advertisers. Depending on what they are advertising, of course. I am sure a site about baking cookies is not going to do well, but maybe a forex trading site might do better. There are some advertisers that say they have had some success with this site. Check our comment section for more info on this subject.

CONS:

1. No Forum - Forums can be a excellent asset to many sites since proof of payment can be posted freely by members. This site does not have one. They do have a testimonial section. But that is not a way to receive diverse feedback. All you will see is positive feedbacks.

2. Opposition & Claims of Theft? - Well there seems to be some outside advertisers out there who are calling this site a bunch of thieves and that if you are using this site you might be helping them from stealing money from the common web site owner who is already struggling.

There are claims that AdFlasher uses ads from yahoo and possibly google on their grids. Which I am not 100% sure how they could get away with that, since yahoo and google are very good about catching these violations. Especially Google. I am sure if that many hits were coming in there would be a huge red flag showing up at the other end at Google and Yahoo headquarters.

I would hope that this site is not stupid enough to put yahoo ads or google ads on a PTC site/incentive site. It is common knowledge for most that this against the terms of service at Google and Yahoo. So why would they knowingly risk putting up ads that could one day be taken away because of this violation? That would put their entire business at risk.

Maybe what is happening' a publisher who is signed up for yahoo publisher is using yahoo ads on his site and in return he is showing his site on Adflasher? Which is also a big no no, but many make that mistake. Bloggers will put their blog on a traffic exchange site and not realize their google ads showing on their blog is not to be used on a traffic exchange or PTC sites.

3. New Site - This site was registered on Aug 3, 2009. Which means it has a ways to go before anyone can say it has withstand the test of time. The site already seems to have become very popular over a short period of time. Will it be able to stay on top? I guess we have to wait and see.

Summary:

They seem to be paying, but it is way too early to say if this is a site you can depend on for being there for tomorrow. If you plan on using this site, don't get carried away and spend more than what you can afford to lose.

If anyone would like to share their experience that they had with this site, whether it is good or bad, feel free to do so in our comment section at the end of this review.
