I’ve been a free a affiliate with TMI wireless for some time now. I really don’t do much with TMI Wireless except buy my cell phones through them and earn a commission by doing so and promote the TMI Wireless affiliate opportunity on my main website.

Well, I checked my mail today and received a check from TMI Wireless. I thought this was cool because it is the second time TMI Wireless has paid me now. The first time I got paid was off a kick back on a cell phone purchase for myself ($50.00) and a $10.00 commission off of one of my referred affiliate sales. So I got a check for $60.00.

This time I earned $10.00 (I know it isn’t anything to brag about), off of one of my referred affiliate sales. This means I technically didn’t deserve this measly $10.00 commission, but I got it anyway, and I can earn $10.00 over and over again for the rest of my life while the free affiliates I refer continue to make cell phone and accessory sales.

A Check I received from TMI Wireless for $10.00 from a sub-affiliate’s sale.

I only show this check, even though because of the low amount I should be embarrassed to show it, because the check shows that TMI Wireless is a good affiliate company to join.

• Free to join affiliate company (no monthly fees, ever).
• $50.00 for every cell phone sale.
• $10.00 off of sub-affiliate sales for life.
• 15% off of accessory sales.
• 10% bonus if you sell 20 cell phones in one month.
• Get you own TMI Wireless affiliate website with the needed advertising tools included.
• Advanced affiliate tracking so you can see stats on you and your sub-affiliate’s traffic results.
• Can earn a commission off the purchase of your own personal cell phone and plan.
• Carry all the major service providers: Sprint, At&t, Verizon Wireless, and T-Mobile.

You basically have to look at TMI Wireless like this: TMI Wireless is never going to cost you anything to join, you just sign up as an affiliate for free, put a simple TMI Wireless banner on your site or banner rotator, and get a kick back on the upgrade or new plan purchase of your own personal cell phone transactions.

I wanted to inform you of a simple trick that will save you time and the possibility of getting ripped off by a paid to click or a paid to read e-mail company. Here is the simple trick folks, if you see a paid to click or a paid to read e-mail website say they will pay you anywhere for 25 cents to $1.00 plus per click or e-mail read, the outlying business opportunity is more than likely a scam or rip off.

Here is the reason why, simply know and understand that if the advertising company you signed up with is paying their members 25 cents to $1.00 per click or e-mail read, how much could they possibly be charging their advertising clients to advertise with them?

This question puts everything out in the open. Think about it, let’s say the paid to click or paid to read e-mail company you signed up with pays $1.00 per click. In order for this advertising company to make a profit off of their advertisers they would at the minimum charge their clients a 1 cent surcharge per click. Let’s say the advertiser wants 1,000 hits to his/her website. What’s 1,000 x $1.01? The answer = $1,010.00. This means the advertiser paid $1,010.00 = $1.00 for every member’s click and a $10.00 admin fee to the website. Seriously, do you think you would pay this much for 1,000 measly hits? Of course not.

This is why I’m writing this article. If you see a paid to click or paid to read e-mail site that pays an unusually high amount per click or read, you better go directly to their advertising section and see how much they charge their advertisers to advertise on their website. Then you’ll know right away whether or not their paid to click or paid to read site is a scam or not. If the numbers don’t add up to a profit for the site you are a member of, it most definitely is a scam.

I wouldn’t be doing you any justice if I didn’t at least show an example or two. I wonder how long these money making sites will last with their bogus earning claims. Big Money PTC = $1.00 per click to members and only charge their advertisers $3.00 per 1,000.00 clicks. This just doesn’t add up. Rich PTC = $1.00 per click to members and only charges their advertisers $3.00 per 1,000.00 clicks.

You don’t have to be a math wiz to know that these sites equal a big rip off!!!! Legit paid to click and paid to read e-mail sites usually will pay their members 1 cent per click to way less than 1 cent per click. This really sucks, but unfortunately makes sense as far as a successful business model is concerned. You can only charge advertisers so much per click and the member’s return on investment has to match up with that advertiser’s advertising costs.

I found yet another sign up bonus site. Cash Solos is currently offering new free members a $5.00 sign up bonus and a free pro membership. The only downside to Cash Solo’s promotion is that it will potentially go away once they have reached 1,000 members. Let’s hope this isn’t the case though. Until then, it looks to me like Cash Solos has a good thing going for them.

Unfortunately, I do have to mention another negative. In order to receive the $5.00 sign up bonus, you have to submit a support ticket to the Cash Solo admin requesting the $5.00 sign up bonus within 30 days. The reason I think this is a negative is because the sign up bonus should be automatic. That’s just my opinion, what do you think?

Anyway, since you can join Cash Solos for free, you might as well take advantage of the free sign up bonus while you can and the free traffic. Apparently you get free traffic just for being a member with Cash Solos. You can also refer other free members and receive free traffic back to your websites when your referrals are active in the site. This make Cash Solos another good traffic asset to have in your back pocket.

As always, I had to take the time to look at Cash Solo’s terms and conditions. Cash Solos claims that they pay their members within 7 days after requesting payment. Let’s hope this turns out to be true. Because I really hate websites that do not pay! Before you can even start worrying about requesting payment from Cash Solos, you have to earn at least $25.00 in order to request your first payment anyway. So that time will come when it does.

Take a look at some more free advertising dollars for signing up and let me know what you think of all the free money to take advantage of.
