Is The Marketplace Full?

How Many Paid To Click Sites Will Survive?

There seems to be few days pass where we don’t find the launch of a new Paid to Click (PTC) site. Some of them come blazing in with a fanfare, the admin has obviously spotted the need for a wide range of advertising to get the initial members, whilst others enter the market with something of a whimper.

I’m getting very doubtful about the number of sites that can be realistically supported. OK, I know someone reading this is thinking about the Billions of Internet users out there however when a well established site like Donkeymails has only 192,000 users and Adbux boasts of 829,000 members then that really is about the size of user base available at the moment. There will be a continuing trickle of new users but the market is not increasing at the massive rate it was doing so earlier this year.

What then for the future? Plenty of the recent crop of PTC sites including one which has paid me [Eurocent Bux] have, after a bright start, settled down to just 4 or 5 ads per day. I’m beginning to wonder whether it might be in the best interests of both site admins and users to see some mergers in the market leaving us a smaller number of PTC sites but with a greater likelihood of being paid.
