Introduction

This e-book is for informational purposes only. I have tried to make everything as clear and as simple as possible. If you need more information and further assistance then I am happy to help you as long as you really want to work for results. I am not going to do the work for you, I am just showing you HOW it's done so you wouldn't have to spend time doing the research. For some people my methods aren't simply suitable and I totally understand – everyone's different. By the time you finish this book and try out some of my methods yourself I'm pretty sure you know if you want to continue doing what I do or not. You can't possibly be successful in something you don't like in the first place, right?

Hi Friend,

My name is Frank, I am 21 years old and I have made extra money with GPT programs for 5 years straight. I was only 16 when I first discovered the world of GPT! I make an average of $500-$1000+ per month extra money using only free GPT programs. I have combined that with my part-time office job and I am making more money than a regular full-time worker.

In this e-book, I will show you only legitimate ways to make extra money from home using various free GPT programs. Don't know what a GPT is? That's OK, after you finish my book you will know exactly what it is, how it works and how to profit from it.

Now, before we proceed I would like to get something out of the way (yes, it's important!)

I will NOT teach you how to become rich overnight and generate a massive $10,000+ per day profit!

Instead, I will show you a legitimate way to earn an extra $500-$1000+ per month. Sounds nice, doesn't it?

Let me be completely honest with you here. It took me 5 years to make $500-1000+ free extra income per month. If you're an experienced Internet Marketer you are probably laughing your ass off right now. Go on, I'm not mad. This e-book is only meant for people who have absolutely no idea how to make any money on-line, it's not for people who earn their living on the Internet.

If you read this e-book and then email me a few days later telling me that my book sucks or that you can't make money the way I do then I will simply ignore your email. Most people these days are just too impatient and lazy to do anything on their own. They want everything to be done FOR them so they could just sit there and watch the money roll in. This simply isn't the way things work. If you're one of those people then STOP READING right now!

Others may proceed ;)

What Is A GPT?

GPT stands for Get Paid To. These are certain types of websites and programs that allow its members to GET PAID. Internet has given a great way for us to earn income from home and using these websites is just one method of generating dollars to your bank account. There are thousands of other ways to make money on-line, but mostly these methods require previous knowledge and experience.

While other ways of making money online may be difficult, time consuming and almost impossible for a complete newbie, Get Paid To programs are the exact opposite. In fact, this can be FUN!

You can only work few hours a day and make a nice extra income to buy Christmas presents for example. The basic fact that goes with any GPT program is:

The more time you spend working – the more money you will earn!

Get paid for what you're already doing! I am sure you visit many different websites a day and of course you have created accounts on many different social networking sites, dating sites etc. Perhaps you have even completed brief on-line questionnaires for fun?

If you have done any of the things above then you can make FREE money with GPT programs!

It's as simple as 1 – 2 – 3: view advertisements, sign up for new websites, try out products and complete surveys for fun and earn real money while doing all that.

Some people may say that it's impossible to make a reasonable amount of money with GPT programs. Well, you know what? They don't know sh*t. These people are simply lazy. There's really no point in listening to these people. If YOU work a little bit then you WILL make extra income on-line – that's a fact.

Note: If you are living outside the United States or Canada, then you might have a bit trouble completing offers. This is simply because the majority of advertisers target their ads to USA and Canada.

That doesn't mean you can't earn with a GPT program! Keep on reading and You will find more information on how to boost your revenue without completing offers.

You must be thinking: “This can't be that easy!” or “Why on earth would someone give me money for free?” Read our next chapter and find out how GPT programs work and WHERE does the free money come from!

Where Does The Free Money Come From?

1. How does it work exactly?
2. Why on earth would someone give me money for free?
3. Is it even legal to use such programs?
4. I'm afraid I might get ripped off...?!
5. So, where's the catch?

All these questions will be answered in this chapter so keep on reading and enlighten yourself! Understanding how exactly the GPT industry works is essential for your success and to avoid fraud and rip-offs.

I'm sure you have heard how advertising on-line works, but let me go through this once more:

Huge companies pay loads of money to webmasters (people who manage websites) around the world to make them show banners, text ads and other advertisements on their websites.

Being a webmaster of a really popular website like Youtube.com or Myspace.com etc. IS extremely profitable because advertisers literally throw money at your feet just to get exposure.

Why? Because millions of people all around the world visit these websites every day, so these websites obviously get a lot of traffic. If you are a smart advertiser you will want to put your banner on a website in front of millions of people, right? Basically the advertiser buys banner spots on a popular website and gets a lot of new customers that in the end will make the advertiser more money than he invested in advertising his company.

This is where the GPT comes in. Instead of keeping all the money made from advertisers for themselves, GPT owners kindly share their own income with their members. So there you have it. This is the source of your free money and all you have to do is visit websites and sign up on different programs. No, You don't have to buy anything. You can sign up on completely FREE websites (like a dating website for example) and earn money for doing this. Huge companies don't mind paying a few dollars for every new member because they really need new members for their website to run.

And no, there is absolutely nothing illegal in making money this way. This is not a pyramid scheme or any other type of illegal money source. The money comes from professional advertisers who want more exposure to build their brand and spread all around the world. It's like paying to a TV channel to have your commercial show up. The only difference is that when you (a consumer) watch these TV commercials you will not have a chance to profit from them at the same time.

You’re simply rewarded for completing offers. Let's say you have signed up for a dating program that you stumbled across on Youtube.com. Now, while you signed up for that dating website, Youtube.com made money because you went to that dating site from Youtube. GPT programs kindly share that same revenue with you – this is why you get paid to sign up for offers

So, how does this information help you to avoid fraud and rip-offs? It's simple actually. If a website is offering you to earn thousands of dollars by completing offers and surveys then it's most likely a scam. Why? Think for a minute... if you were the advertiser, would you pay $1000 for a single member to join your website? I didn't think so! Earning around $1.00 to $5.00 per completed offer is much more realistic. Multiple that by 10 and you have $50.00 of free money just for completing 10 surveys/offers. A new iPod for your little ones – checked! :)

So, where's the catch? Believe it or not – there is no catch. The more websites you sign up on (from GPT programs) the more money you will make. There's literally no limit on how much you can earn. Of course you can't sign up for offers 24/7 so TIME might be your only obstacle.

Warning: GPT programs are constantly monitoring their members. Keep in mind that advertisers pay only for valid members who really are interested in what they offer. If you complete offers using false names, invalid email addresses and other invalid information, you WILL get banned from a GPT. You must ONLY sign up for offers that interest you! Being completely honest will always work out better for everyone. NEVER sign up for offers only because you want to make easy money. Sign up for offers that you would normally sign up for without earning anything. (websites). When Youtube made $2.00 USD because you signed up through their link, a GPT owner will give you at least half of it for doing so. So the GPT owner ends up with earning just $1.00 and you will also earn $1.00. It's a win-win situation on all 3 parties involved. The advertiser gets a new member, the promoter (a GPT owner) gets rewarded for bringing them a new member and the member itself will earn a little extra income for signing up.

How To Find A Legitimate Program & Avoid Scam?

It's a known fact that the Internet gives a lot of great opportunities for a con-artist. There are literally thousands of networks and stand-alone websites that are built only just to rip you off.

I am convinced that when you finish reading this chapter, you lessen your chances of being the victim of a scam at least 80%.

Please note that this information shouldn't be taken as 100% truth. Websites and their content may vary dramatically and not all programs are scams. This information is simply for educational purposes!

OK, let's get to it. Follow these easy steps to avoid scam:

1. The first thing you should be looking for in any website is a well written Terms Of Service. It's usually located in the bottom of the main website. Some websites have it on their main navigation menu or somewhere around the registration page. It shouldn't be hard to locate. If it's not there, you should reconsider joining the program.

2. Another thing to look for is a way of contacting the admin directly. A Contact Us link or a phone number gives the website a good chance of being legit. Don't hesitate to go one step further and try to contact the admin. Ask them about their program and how YOU can benefit from it. It is obviously a good sign if the admin replies.

3. Does the site have a Proof Of Payments page? It's great if they do, but if they don't have it, that doesn't mean it's a scam!

4. What is the minimum amount you have to earn before cashout? Normally this doesn't exceed $30.00 USD. Most common GPT programs require you to earn between $15 - $20 before you can request a payment. If the minimum is extremely high (let's say $1000) then it's obviously a scam.

5. Looking for a legitimate GPT program can be easier by the help of Google. Try looking for the program through Google and see what comes up. For example, you can search for: “program name scam”. Try searching for a forum where the program is being discussed. Lots of valuable real-life opinions there!

6. There are many GPT forums where members discuss various programs. Make sure to check out these forums and blogs: www.talkgold.com, www.moneytalkpro.com, www.mrgpt.com, www.gptreview.net, www.dreamteammoney.com
Of course there are thousands of websites and forums that discuss GPT programs but these are the most respectful ones that have a lot of good information to start out with. If you want more, then go and search Google for “gpt reviews”; “gpt review”, “Get paid to reviews” etc.

7. Make sure to check the membership benefits of a program. They should be located on the main page for everyone to see. If they promise thousands of dollars overnight, then it's probably a scam. You can't earn that much by completing offers, but for example $500+ a month is a more reasonable amount.

8. This is important - If the program asks for you to pay a membership fee then something is extremely wrong. A legitimate GPT website never asks you to pay money to make money. You should reconsider joining such websites. Some programs may offer a voluntary upgrade and yes, some upgrades can benefit you but should be used with caution. If you're not forced to pay anything to make money then things are OK. Don't join a program that won't allow you in unless you pay them first.

9. You should also look for website statistics. For example, the amount of money that has been already paid out to members, how many members are registered etc. This information can be altered easily by the admin and should not be considered highly accurate, but it's still a good sign.

10. Finally, you should see if the page is updated on a regular basis. If they have a blog or a news page then check it out. Have they added any news lately? If they haven't updated their news for months then the admin might just be gone for good – no money here.

These are the most important things you should look for in any GPT program. Remember, you can always contact me if you are having second thoughts on joining a program. I will help you pick a legitimate GPT.

For conclusion, I would say that you should only join a program that has been on-line for a while and has a good reputation. It's pretty easy if you simply take the time to study the background of a given program. Search engines and money making forums will help you a lot!

So it's time to start looking! Open a search engine and type in “get paid to complete offers” or something similar to find a lot of websites offering you a GPT experience. Trust me, there are hundreds of websites that give away free money and new programs are opened every single day. Just keep in mind to check the background of a program before you join and you'll be fine. Be skeptical! :)
