1 How do PTC sites work?
PTC sites is a way to communicate between advertisers and publishers (in this case the clickers or also called affiliators). Advertisers want to show their sites to people and they pay for it. Users at the ptc sites want to earn money and they do it by clicking the ads from advertisors.
2 What is a referral?
There is an "upline" and a "downline". The downline is the so called "referral", a person who joined with a special link from already existing user. The upline is the person who is already registred at a site and is helping other people to register at the sites with the special link from the upline.
3 Why do we need referrals?
The PTC and many GPT (Get Paid To) owners invest a lot of money in their sites. They also have to invest in selfsponsored ads when they start because there are no advertisers willing to advertise at a site with only 10 members. That's why they offer referral earnings to the people who help other people to register witht heir special link called "referral link or ref link". Referral earnings can be everything from 5-100% of what the downline (referrals) earn to 1-10 cent for each new referral that join your downline.
Referral earnings help the ptc owners to use less money on advertising (or no at all) in the long run. The higher referral earnings are the more people are willing to invest their own money in advertising the site to get these referral earnings that can be really huge if you got a very big downline (many referrals).
