How To Make A PTC Site ?


- A lot of members who click in ptc sites daily sometimes think about making their own ptc sites , yet being unable to know what they need or how to run a site stops them from going on and trying to do it .

- In this topic i'll post steps on how to start ptc site and things you need for it
Part 1 : What do you need to start a site :

- Some people put a start up cost of a ptc site with 100 or 200$ which is a scary number for regular clickers who have 50 or 60$ max , but that 100 or 200 $ is too high number not all sites need huge amount of money at the start

- So for the start you will need to have :
1- Verified Paypal account ( either Premier or Business )
2- Verified Alertpay account ( either Personal Pro or Business )
* You can use liberty reserve account or others also , but the previous two are the main payment processors in PTC sites , either for sales or paying members

+ I'd recommend to start with premier account in paypal and personal pro in alertpay as this would give you chance to get lower fees on purchases sometimes

- Now after having the payment processors you will need to find a domain name for your site some like to start with a .info domain name as it's cheaper , some like the .com domain name as a future look so when their sites grow larger they don't find a problem in getting the .com name
prices of the .info domains start from 99 cents , while .com names start from 6.99$ ( last time i checked )
there are some good domain registerers i know like :
* Namecheap : www.namecheap.com
you can find their latest discounts on this site : www.namecheapcoupons.com

* Godaddy : www.godaddy.com

- Those are the best two domains registeres i know , other sites wont be reliable and may cause you problems later

- Now after getting your domain , you will need a hosting for your coming site
DON'T go for regular hosting sites , because all ptc sites need lots of resources from hosting , so any regular host will suspend your account as soon as you get 300 or 400 members , so from the start find a high resources hosting which is good host for ptc sites , and here's a list of some hosting sites that allow ptc sites :

* One of the first PTC sites hosting , active support , backups , ddos protection is available also

2- Hostigation : http://hostigation.com/
* It's also good ptc hosting , and have their own datacenter , they are good and stable from what i hear

3- Polarwebservices : http://polarwebservices.com/
* Also been hosting ptc sites for long time , so they are good

* They are good for ptc sites , provide automated backups , ddos protection , and at good prices too

5- Trisonichost : https://trisonichost.com/
* Good host for aurora based sites , and they have low prices so good for sites that are just starting up

6- Empirehostings : http://empirehostings.com/
* They provide good and fast support and would be able to help you in any problem you might face

- Before you get hosting you need to know somethings you will need :
* At the start you will need at least 1-3 gb disk space and from 50 to 60 gb bandwidth , this would cost around 6 or 7$ in most previous hosting sites
* After your site gets larger you can upgrade to larger hosting package


- Part 2 : How to Start ? Which Type of Sites Will You Make?

- now after you got the domain and hosting , you will move to second step , which will be what type of sites you want to start , in this there are two types of sites :

1- Aurora : which will be low earning site , clicks range vary from .001$ to .0001$ this type of sites mainly depends on the traffic you sell , you will be selling ads for around 25 to 50 cents per 1000 visits or as they call it CPM , most of site earnings will come from traffic sales payouts should usually be low and don't exceed 1$ payout

2- Bux : which will be a high earning site , clicks range vary from .01$ to .005$
this type of sites depends mostly on memberships sales and rented referrals sales , payouts start from 2$ in most of these sites , usually instant , and payout increases with each payment , like 2$ first payout , 3$ second and so on

- now the question is which site to start , do you start with a bux site or aurora site ?
* this depends on lots of things , including :
1- how much money you have at the start , if less than 100$ then start an aurora site , if more than 250$ you can make a bux site
2- how much you know about php and designing , if you know a little , then don't risk and start with aurora site , if you have good knowledge then you can go for a bux site
3- how much experience you have in ptc styles , if you just started or short time experience , then  go for an aurora site , if been doing it for long time and making good earnings from developing your own ways in getting referrals , promoting sites you in , then you can go for a bux

...... lots of other things , but it should be decided by you , you are able to know what you can do and always remember don't try to go for something you can't do because if you started your site and failed it will take you long time to get people's trust again


part 3 : which scripts are available to use for a PTC site ?

- Now after you got the domain and hosting , decided which site you will start , here's some info about available ptc scripts that you can use to start your own site

a- If you will make aurora site :
- aurora scripts are many but in general most available scripts are based on the old version of aurora script named aurora 4.0.8 , the list of scripts i know are :

1- SDR Series : or also known as scripts done right series , these are based on the previous aurora version , with lots of modifications , and fixes to prevent errors on the old version the versions list till today are :
* SDR2 : which is good script and has lots of updated features prices of it range from 20 to 25$ , if you are starting a site for first time , this would be good script to use
* SDR3 : more developed version than the previous one , with more addons and modifications , more security features , gets updated each 6 weeks as i know
price is 45$

> You can find more info and details about SDR scripts on the following site :

2- MRV Series : also known as maderight version scripts , it's also based on same old script version , modified and enhanced with more features , part of these scripts problem is that some parts in the script are encrypted , which prevents you from modifying these parts , but this is good for security of the script from other hand
it has following versions so far :
* MRV 3 : few modifications and fixes , nothing fancy , but price is only 6$ so not bad
* MRV 4 : a bit advanced than the previous one , more modifications and new features price is 10$
* MRV 5 : which is latest version of the script , more modifications and updates in it it's a lot similar to sdr 2 script , price is only 20$

> You can find more info and details about MRV scripts on the following site :

3- ESV Scripts : It is a lately released series of scripts also based on the original aurora 4.0.8 version , with modifications and few changes , mostly in the look but not in internal features , till now the available versions are :
* ESV 1 : similar to aurora 4.0.8 version with some addons added to it , price is 7$
* ESV 2 Standard : more addons installed in this version , some security enhancements too , price is 15$
* ESV 2 Deluxe : same like standard previous version , but with better designs in some pages , also 1 extra addon price is 20$
* ESV 3 : still in development stage , but it will include more features price is 40$

> You can find more info and details about ESV scripts on the following site :
+ what is noticed in esv script series is it's not based on true development team like previous 2 versions , it's based on modifications that go to original aurora script , plus adding some addons to it and selling it as a new version of the script , btw it's just personal opinion

4- Aurora Script : this is a continue of the original aurora script but carried out by only one of the 2 who made the latest version is called AURORAGPT 4.1.2 - NEXUS 3 GENERATION
this is the same project that gives updated version sources for the ESV scripts
latest version price is 20$

> you can contact the script developer through his website :

5- PTCShop : new script , totally different from all previous versions , easy to modify and add addons to it , more like bux look and feel but with all aurora script usual features i still don't have full details about it yet , will update topic with it once i get more info , price of latest version is 47$ , it's one of scripts you can use to run either aurora or a bux site as it suits both

>You can find more details about it , prices and demo of the script on the main script website here : http://www.ptcshop.com/

- these are list of all aurora scripts i know till now , check it and decide what suits you better , but when you decide to purchase one , try getting it from a reseller not original site , as this will give you a direct contact with person who will install your script also will give you a better support
- all previous scripts are installed on your site except the last one ( aurora updated version ) which you get installation files so you will need some php knowledge
- prices of scripts are from what is listed on the original sites , it may vary from reseller to another
- if you needed help , you can contact me and will help as and if i can  :)
- that's for aurora scripts , next part will be for buxes .......


b- If you will make a bux site :

- starting a bux site isn't easy at all , first it needs you to be able to stand losing some amount of money at the start , so you just find a foot place for your site , other bux sites make it really hard for new sites with neobux and clixsense around and their new low price ads , it wont be easy .

- scripts available for bux styles are a lot , even some are free , but if you are going to make a bux don't even think about free scripts , bux site has lots of incoming and going money and free scripts are easily hackable , so if you used a free script it's like opening your wallet in middle of street and expecting it will be safe .

- here are some info about the most known bux scripts :
1- PTC Evolution : it's one of the best bux scripts ( personal opinion ) , it has all needed feature in a script , security , good look , all bux features , modifiable , instant payments feature , lots of things any owner can use in a bux
the problem of it is the script has some encrypted parts , it's good for security , but it prevents you from making your own additions in the script , any addon you need to add to site needs you to contact the script maker first and pay him a fee  so he installs the addon you made , so you will pay twice to add a single addon  ;D , but in general it's really good script , and prices are good too

> details of the script and demo , also prices are through their main site :

2- GEN 4+ : also one of the most unique scripts , easy to modify and add good addons to it , good support team , secure script , but it's a bit high in price , so not every new owner will be able to afford it , but if you can pay for it it's a good deal

> details and demo with prices list are available on their main site here :

3- Zeus : also good , strong , secure script , lots of sites use it lately , has all needed features in a bux script , with continuous updates , only problem in this script is it needs you to be kinda good in php , as most of settings in admin panel are not easy to set without php knowledge

* 3- nTeN : new script from same makers of zeus script , it has most of features as zeus , plus some advanced features like theme editing , advanced payments system integration , till now this script still in beta testing and not released yet

> details and demo , with list of prices of both scripts are available on this site :

4- ClixScript : this is recently developed script , developed by a good coder , it's still very new so i don't recommend using it for now , as it's still missing some features like PTSU , plus it's preferred to wait till some others try any new script so you can be aware if any potential bugs before you get it , but for design and look and security it's a really promising script and will get attention after some time

> details , demo and prices are found on the developers home page here :

+ i didn't put prices as it can differ from a reseller to another , some can provide good discounts for the script you purchase
+ bux scripts are sold in 2 types licenses , either 1 year license or a lifetime license
+ bux scripts need you to give more attention to security as most bux sites do enable instant payments feature and this would be a great way to empty your paypal or alertpay if you got hacked  ;D

- next will be about buxhost sites and if is it a good or bad idea to start a bux host site


c- BuxHost Sites , is it good or bad to start one ? :

- I preferred to make a buxhost as different style of ptc sites scripts because of it's features , i'll post all info i know about buxhost so you can decide either to start one or no

- First of all buxhost doesn't include any of previous things i mentioned from the topic start till now , it's more like all in one package

- In buxhost , you create account here : http://www.buxhost.com/ , you choose the domain name you want and they register it for you , and they make your site
you will pay 25$ as a monthly subscription , this includes hosting and script instant updates which isn't bad price

, So what is good and bad about buxhost site ?

A- The Good :
1- you will get a strong and always updated script with lots of features that aren't yet available in most other scripts
2- you will get good support that will fix any problems you get in the script
3- you don't need to be good at php as all your problems will be fixed for you
4- you will get good hosting
5- you will have lots of options to protect your site from frauds , like refund protect feature which will help you in avoiding lots of known scammers who do purchases from your site then after a while they do disputes to get their money after they get what they purchased
6- you will get a DDOS protection , which would cost you much on other hosting sites
7- big discounts when you purchase long term plans

B- The Bad :
1- you don't actually own your site  ;D , because you don't have access to your cpanel and you can't move your domain , so if you decided to leave them , you will say goodbye to your site
2- some features aren't available in monthly subscriptions and only available in the 1 year and above subscription
3- site gets downtimes during updates which you might not be informed about
4- you will need to pay extra money when you exceed your bandwidth and it's not cheap amount to pay
5- hard to get members to trust your site , because of the bad reputation buxhost sites have due to lots amounts of scams done by these sites
6- all sites have same look and design which makes it hard to be unique site

- So is it good idea to make a buxhost site or no ?
* if this is your first PTC site , it's really bad idea to start with a bux host , because these sites are so liable to turn into scam and if your first site scammed , members wont trust you again for a while
* if you are experienced owner and have some other good working site , then you can make it work , will be hard but it's possible , go for a long term subscription first like 2 or 3 years , then manage the site right and you will be able to get it to work

- There are some other sites that provide services similar to buxhost , but most of these sites are unreliable and you don't get what your purchased most of times , plus support is bad , if you are going for such styles of sites then use buxhost as they are trusted in providing services and support


part 4 : what's next ?

- now after you got your domain , hosting and script , there are few things remaining so you get a full site these things are :

a- Template :

which is the site design , this is very important part , as the look of your site is very important in attracting members to your site , in this part i like to explain some details for those who don't know the following info

* template is a Photoshop image it's made by any designer after that a coder modifies this image to become a php file which you can install on your site , you have to know that not all designers can modify image to be a php or what is known as coding a template , so before you purchase and template ask the seller if it's coded or not
also if you are purchasing a unique design template , make sure the seller gives you the original Photoshop file which is known as psd this is to prevent him from using this design again or selling it to others ( only if you are purchasing unique design )
usually unique design price ranges from 10 to 50$ (  :P yes can be high price but it worth it if the design is good ) and coding the photoshop file to php would cost from 10 to 15$ depending on the coder
or you can take short way and purchase already coded and ready to go templates , here are some sites which sell good and cheap templates :

this site belongs to viewz , he is one of well known coders and designers , he has lots of good templates and in good prices too , and he provides support to you in adding the purchased template to your site

which is also reseller for most previous scripts i mentioned before , so can be good when you go for a bux script , or aurora script , good templates with good prices

these are mainly viewz templates plus some other templates made by sdr script makers

good templates with affordable prices too

there are many sites to get templates from , i will update this post with any new templates sites i find , also you can check our buy and sell section in which you can find good offers from designers in our forum

- you can start with standard and not fancy template and after your site grows you can change it , templates aren't a fixed thing and they are easy to change anytime , so calculate your budget first and find good and cheap template for your start which can be good idea

b- Forum :

- now your site will need a support forum , so members can get in touch with you , and you will be able to post updates about site , any contests or offers you currently have , also your members will be able to post if they had any problem , and post their payments proofs which will be good way to show you are honest and paying site

- there are many forum scripts you can use the two most famous ones ( in ptc sites ) are :

1- SMF ( Simple Machines Forum ) : which is the best i think , as it's easily adjusted , has lots of mods that provides you lots of good features you will need in forum , plus it's easily installed and doesn't need much php info

> You can get it from this site : http://www.simplemachines.org/

2- phpBB : which is light and fast to install script , easy to configure , and can be used when you don't want to take much space for the forum

> You can get it from here : http://www.phpbb.com/

* there are many other scripts too , but those 2 are the most used for ptc sites

c- Support System :

- this will enable you to get members problems and work on it fast so you fix it
good way for direct contact between owners and members , some scripts have built in support system , some doesn't , currently the support system i use in my sites is this : http://www.hesk.com/
which is good and stable , easy to figure and configure


part 5 : How To Start ?

- now you got your site ready , you got script , design , forum , what to do next ?
* many things still left to do , but the hard part is already done , now what you will do next will be :

a - Internal Site Stuff :

1) Setting Up Your Terms Of Service :
this is very important , this will guide how you deal with your members , how you will pay , what countries can cashout and which countries will need to upgrade , what users can do and what they can't do , lots of things , also remember to make something saying your site isn't a MLM site , so when paypal reviews your site they don't limit your account
best way is to check terms for list of successful PTC sites , then get a mix from their terms to come up with your own terms of service .

2) Prices :
prices of ads you will sell , it's measured by CPM which is price of 1000 ad
, at the start you will have hard time getting advertisers , because your site still small without much active members , so try to make your prices low , something like 2000 visits for 1$ or 3000 visits , just so you attract advertisers and when your site grows , you can provide higher value ads , remember you are trying to balance between advertisers needs and members needs

3) Payouts :
start with a low payout value , like 10 cents or 20 cents , this will get you good members activity at the start , also would enable you to sell ads for low price , because if you sell 5000 ads for 1$ for example and you made your payout 1$ members wont remain in your site and will leave fast


b- Earning Money From Your New Website :

- now you finished all , next part will be how to make money from your website from first day
- start by adding few sites that pay you to post banners of it on your site like :

1) adhitz : it's advertising network , you join their site as a publisher ( site owner ) and create a banner code which you place on your site , you earn money for each click on that banner and you can cashout once your reach 25$

> this is their website : http://adhitz.com

2) trafficrevenue : same like adhitz but they pay only for usa , canada and european traffic no other countries

> this is their site : http://www.trafficrevenue.net/

3) bitvertiser : same style as adhitz , but earnings are a bit less

> this is their site : http://www.bidvertiser.com/

4) flagads : they have lots of options for you , not only banners , but popup ads and other , which enables you to make money faster

> this is their site : http://flagads.net/

* there are a lot more similar sites , i don't know all of them , but i will post updates to what i find here

- now you placed banners in your site to make money from views , what else can you do ?
your members will log in to your site to view ads , so you usually need a captcha to ensure they wont use bots or autoclickers to click ads , you can make money from this buy using a captcha that is strong and that pays you each time a member logs in
you can use solvemedia captcha , which is strong against bots and pays you for each solved captcha
you can get it by signing up at their site here : http://www.solvemedia.com/

- these are ways that enable you to make money without paying anything

-the question now is what about the ads you will place in your site , how to get them ?
at the start of any ptc site , owners are forces to use their personal ads or what is called self sponsored ads you will start by calculating how much you want your members to earn in your site daily , let's say you want them to make 0.02$
so you place 20 ads each worth .001$
these ads should be for sites you want referrals in , or sites with high ptp so you can make some money from these ads
after you get good amount of members try to sell ads for lower price and split your self sponsored ads value
if you sold and ad for example , make it a .001$ ad and change value of 2 of your self sponsored ads to 0.0005 , this will make you have more ads and yet still same amount of earnings , and so on

Good Luck
