1. TRAFFIC EXCHANGES:
There is an audience ready made for you, most of these people are in the market for your offering.
Try to stay with manual exchanges, as tempting as the auto surf ones will appear. You want people to see your ad and many times they won’t with an auto surf program. Choosing ones that have frequent cheat checks is also a good plan. This reduces the chance that a bot is cruising right past your ad and wasting your hard earned ad credits. There are many good ones available to use free of charge. Once again, there is a dizzying array to choose from so if you get overwhelmed, just ask around for some recommendations. People will be happy to help you and they appreciate the referral (you!).

2. JOIN FORUMS
That cover money making sites. Most sites will have their own, plus there are a great many that are genre specific…such as PTC, affiliate programs or viral ad group forums.
These are great places to place your referral link, but FIRST make sure that the forum permits this and make sure you put it in the right area. Otherwise you could be spamming and possibly lose your membership. Down the road you might regret that, so make sure to follow all the rules.
3. JOIN SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES
Each one will have it’s own set of rules, so check these before posting.
4. Referral Exchanges
A great way to get referrals.Referal exchanges are forums where you can trade referrals. What this means is that someone will sign up as your referral for a site you belong to IF you sign up for one of theirs.
This method works very well because chances are, you will be getting a very active referral to make you money. The reason is that because that person wants you to be active in their program, they will be active in yours. As long as you stay active they will too.
The drawback to this method is that you will probably want to set a limit to the number of sites you will join. You don’t want to sign up for so many sites that you cannot stay active in all of them. So, in this way, there is a limit to how often you can do this, but the referrals you will get will be awesome!
My favorite place to exchange referrals is on the PTC Talk Forum. All you have to do is register on the site and then post on this forum. You will start getting offers right away. If you would like to see an example, check out my post.
5. Create a blog.
This may be the most time-consuming of all the methods, depending on how much time you spend on it. BUT, it is well worth the effort if you do it right.
6.Advertising PTC’s on other PTC sites
When will this work?
This can be an effective tool, but mainly only for new PTC sites. If you are using an old PTC site to advertise another old PTC site, most likely everyone who clicks will already be a member of that site.
It is definitely worth a try. I like to use this with my PTC’s that take a long time to reach payout, and the results are pretty good.
7.Tell your family and friends.
Most people don’t think of this even though it is so obvious. Chances are, they do not know about it. They may or may not want to participate, but it can’t hurt to ask. Just make sure you don’t exaggerate. Just tell it like it is: they could earn some supplemental income for very little effort.
The bonus with this method is that if they stop clicking, you can give them a call and remind them to go back and keep clicking. I wish I could do this with all of my referrals!
8. Purchasing Referrals
Purchasing un-referred members from the site is a common practice. The PTC site has many members who either did not sign up under anyone, or their referrer closed their account. These members then go on sale. You can buy them for a price usually ranging from $1-$2 per referral. In most cases, you will only get members that have been active recently.
This method of gaining referrals is the easiest, all you have to do is pay for them and the rest is done for you. There is huge earning potential. As your downline grows, your earnings grow rapidly.
