The Last Million-Dollar Opportunity on The Internet - By Gobala Krishnan

A lot of e-books you buy out there tell you that you just need to do this and that, and your path to financial freedom is secure. But they fail to mention one fundamental thing: it’s just not so easy.

The Internet today is crowded with millions of websites and millions of desperate people behind those websites, competing against each other in order to “make a living online”. Most of them, me included, barely scrape through. All sorts of e-books proliferate the market. So called “niche markets” aren’t as profitable as the experts claim. Their business is, and always has been, convincing you that it is.

Advertising is getting more expensive by the day, and the average human voice gets muffled and drowned in the constant “buzzzz” of digital static. Network marketing programs, even before anyone ever heard of the Internet, is basically a lot of work and very little money. The Internet version of MLM is just a souped-up, hyped-up digital incarnation of the same old wild goose chase. It’s just not as easy as you’d think.

My story is that I had tried so many “new and hot” programs that just left me with a broken spirit and an empty wallet. Sooner of later you get to thinking that this is probably the most difficult thing in the world, and you forget about the supposedly "fun" part of it. It wasn’t until I made the suicidal decision to go full time when I could barely survive part time that I stumbled across “paid to surf” programs, which I truly feel is the last million-dollar opportunity on the Internet. I discovered that with "get-paid-to-surf" type of opportunities, it doesn't really have to be that difficult. Here’s why:

1) Its Unbelievably Easy to Do

I was actually dumbfounded by it’s simplicity at first. All you need to do is surf a couple of sites a day, and you get paid for it. How much you get paid depends on the program or the companies pay plan, which usually ranges from 1% to 15% every day. There are people offering higher payouts but generally anything higher than 15% a day just isn’t feasible or sustainable.

2) It Pays Excellent Referral Commissions

When I tried network marketing, the one thing that unsettled me was the fact that I was trying to sell a money-making idea to someone before I’ve made any myself. In MLM, as you might know, you swim with the big sharks only when you have a humongous network of people who believe that they can make money with you. To me it was a Catch-22 situation.

In paid autosurf programs, however you don’t have to recruit to make money. You can do it all by yourself. If you do however choose to refer someone, it’s much easier since you can show them your earnings. You can also earn a lot from just one person because when he sees that it works, there’s nothing stopping him from making as much as he can, giving you an ever-increasing commission every month. An active referral can give me anywhere between $20 to $400 in commissions a month.

3) Provides Constant Cash Flow For Your Other Businesses

In a world where you have to pay for everything – advertising, web hosting, copyrighting and software – these paid-to-surf programs provide easy (and most importantly positive cash flow). It’s good to have a reliable source of income every month, something that not only helps you keep in the black but also acts as a growing fund for your other businesses as well.

There is, however, the down side to paid-to-surf or paid-autosurf programs: number one being the reliability of the program, number two being the huge amount of trust that has to exist for it to survive in the long haul, and number three is the constant battle by the owners against scammers and wise guys that just want to manipulate the system.

However, like any other money-making opportunity, there’s a solution and a work-around way to protect yourself. With the right knowledge, and the right mindset, there’s absolutely no way you can go wrong here.
