The Truth about High Percent Sites

As you are no doubt aware, there are so many sites to choose from at the moment, there must be some way to ensure that the sites you join and put your hard earned cash into are honest and reliable. Unfortunately there is no way to ensure that, but there are ways you can minimize the risk. You should ask yourself, (and probably the webmasters too) some questions before investing any money into their program. The first question you should ask is "Who owns this program?" Beware of that bloke named "Admin" who seems to have a finger in nearly every single site. If you don't know the owners name, send him an email and ask him. If you don't get a response, or you get told lies, then don't upgrade in that program. How do you know if you are being told lies? Don't believe everything you are told, do some checking of your own. Make a whois search on the domain name. This used to be a great way of finding out info about a WM, but now they are finding ways of hiding their information. So if their information is hidden, and they cannot or will not give you an explanation as to why, don't invest in their program. If they do provide some information, check it. If you have joined the program, login and go to the upgrades page, and see who the money is going to. You can go right through the process and get out of it at any time. The upgrade is not completed until you press "Pay". Compare the information. If it is radically different and you still wish to join the program, (Why would you?) then email the owner again and ask him why the discrepancy. There is no need to be aggressive in these emails as you may put an honest webmaster offside, however a polite request will usually provide you with the info you need.

Next question you need to ask yourself is "Is the deal this program offers genuine?" "Is it sustainable?" History has already proved that a program that offers more than 1% is not sustainable in the long term. Look at the maths, a 1% program promises to pay you $3.65 over a period of 12 months for every dollar you invest. Is this sustainable? Of course it is, if the webmaster has a plan, and reinvests your upgrades wisely. I recently saw a program offering 10% for 30 days. Is that sustainable? Absolutely not! For every dollar you invest this program has to pay you $3, but they only have 30 days to do it. Where is the reality in that? Where does the money come from? The WM concerned would have us believe it is going to come from the sale of advertising. Hullo.... Why would anyone purchase advertising in an autosurf program, when they already get it for free. If you don't believe me, sit and watch next time you are surfing Studio Traffic. The most common ads you will see on Studio Traffic are ads for other Studio sites. If they can't sell advertising, how can a "new kid on the block". This is nothing more than a "Tripler" with an autosurf program attached. If you get in early you may get paid, but if you do it will be at the expense of someone else down the line who will not. Classic ponzi scheme.

Other Warning Signs. Don't upgrade in a program that bombards you with emails making special offers of matching upgrades, or more. Be extra wary if these emails are in BLOCK LETTERS. This method of scamming has already been used in about 20 programs to collect huge amounts of members funds and then disappear. Now they have a new one, "If you have previously upgraded with earnings you are breaking our rules, and have 5 days to upgrade or have your account deleted" Let them delete you. If you haven't upgraded before you have nothing to lose, and if you do upgrade YOU WILL LOSE IT. Don't upgrade in a program that only offers e-gold and Moneybookers as payment options. There is a fair chance that the owners of these sites are the same people referred to above. They have scammed before, and they will do it again. Don't fall for the "Payouts are complete" emails these programs send out. This is another ploy to convince free members to upgrade. The ones that are still waiting to be paid will not have their emails answered, and will not get paid. Be aware of people that have already failed previously, and then open up another site. Some are deliberate scams, and some are just bad business people, either way, have nothing to do with them. It is also a warning sign when you get an email from a site proclaiming that the owner is sick. Whilst I have no doubt that some of these emails are genuine, the truth of the matter is that almost all of these sites close shortly after. Unfortunately it is usually too late by the time we get notified.
