Brief History

DailyClicks.biz was started late 2007 and since then has gained over 107696 members. The site seems to have done very well in particular with traffic rankings and between January and February was at a very high peak which was even way above that of the traffic at ClixSense.com. The site ran into a lot of problems shortly after this peak and became one of the first PTC sites to have their account locked by PayPal.

We must admit at the time they were listed as a confirmed scam but at the time the site wasn’t being very vocal about the events it was facing behind the scenes. Not long after this happened to DailyClicks, PayPal decided it would be a clever move to do the same to most other PTC sites which is now the reason why most PTC sites use AlertPay.

Design

The design of this site has always remained unique thanks to the unique corporate logo ID and layout which does not seem to match many existing scripts. The banner of the site is quite large and therefore seems to take a while to load and sometimes ends up as scrambled code which is more likely to be a server issue.

Advertising

 Although this site took quite a beating on traffic rates the traffic is still high and current around the traffic rank of 4,102. Considering this level of popularity the site has some good prices for what their advertising space is worth. Here you will find 1001 ads are worth $20.00 and 2000 for $40.00.  

Referral system

Unfortunately we couldn’t find anything out about this section. Some rotten luck here is that the sites server problems don’t just occur on the main page banner but also when loading the entire referral purchase page. After several minutes of trying to refresh the page it became pretty clear that it wasn’t going to load anytime soon.

Upgrades

 To add to the problems with the server there also seems to be an error which prevents you from logging in as it requires you to type in a security code which does not exist. This also seems to come with some scrambled programming problems when refreshing the page here. Again were unable to access any information on Upgrades due to this serious error.

Performance

 

Of course it’s again probably not the best time to review this site but it is the current state of affairs here which is the most up to date information we have to work to. What ever is going on here with the server and the growing list of bugs it is clearly not how things are usual around here. This is because no site with a traffic rank like this site would be able to achieve such a level with the current problems we are finding here. Performance is reported to have been good here in the past but which all these recent issues it looks set to stay in the past.

This server problem also prevented us from even viewing the ads page without being logged in. This makes the credibility of the ad prices hang on a very thin line.

 

Conclusion

Much of this bugs on this site seem to be found all over with scrambled programming such as Warning: mysql_close(): no MySQL-Link resource supplied in /home/dailycli/public_html/footer.php on line 37

Putting the current bugs aside there was a reason this site was one of the first to have their accounts locked by PayPal and it is simply because they were unable to manage with the high level of activity and pass payout when this site was seriously popular. Because of the back log and over stretched staff impatient members took it up with PayPal which just made the situation worse and has caused a bigger back log with all the administration of dealing with PayPal bureaucracy.

Weather the back log is still causing this service to lag there is again no visual site of a statement regarding it and people have still not been paid after months of waiting with no replies to their support questions regarding it. If this site is struggling as it clearly is with their server they should come clean and tell the members instead of keeping them guessing the legitimacy of the service.

This will not provide a flattering rating for this site and it must be said that most of the problems encountered here seem to be server related which is still their responsibility. We hope that this site can be reviewed in the near future with a working server and less payment waits.

Over the last 2 days we have become flooded with complaints about DailyClicks.biz scamming their entire member list by resetting everyone’s accounts. This includes any upgrades that have been purchased since signing up. Many of the members have already filed a dispute with Paypal regarding this but ironically DailyClicks.biz is placing the blame on Paypal itself.

When we first heard this was happening to members we decided to email the admin of DailyClicks.biz to hear their side of the story. We were sent this email as a reply

“dailyclickspro@gmail.com; on behalf of; DC Support [support@dailyclicks.biz]

Hello,

Wel there is no scamming here.

Paypal has frozen our account, and there is no way for us to send or receive money.

They will need to request the money back from paypal.

Thanks,

Mike.”

The problem with his response is that was actually asked for the reason why which meant he had to also tell us the reason why Paypal had frozen the account if true. Of course this is nothing new in the PTC industry as everyone knows there are scam sites that slip through the net and disappear with everyone’s money. In this case however they apparently still have everyones money with their apparently locked account.

Filing a dispute with Paypal is of course the best thing to do in a case like this and we hope that this resolves the matter in time. If the admin of dailyclicks.biz was telling the truth about Paypal then we see no reason why Paypal cannot fix a potential problem they are at the heart of. Weather the admin of this site is to blame or not it’s not everyday that you hear Paypal freezes an account of a PTC site which means the admin would have been doing something dodgy for that to happen anyway.

When people sign up to PTC sites they want to know the administrator is going to conduct business in a professional manner to avoid such things happening. DailyClicks.biz has certainly met its end by having this problem as no one is likely to trust this site again should it try to start from scratch. One huge problem with its current state is that the administrator has failed to even issue a website message regarding this problem which meant people had to find their accounts reset on their own.

The administrator should have issued an email warning regarding this. The thing that really puts this site in the scam list is the fact that there was no logical reason to actually reset people’s accounts just because Paypal might have frozen the websites ability to send or receive money.

Because of that obvious scamming move we will be adding this site to the black list at -10 for unnecessary loss of earnings and failure to alert the members. We can only hope that Paypal resolves this matter and releases the correct earnings to those it was intended for.

Thankfully the owner of this website has put in some effort to make it look unique however we would guess the owner has never used UrOnlineBiz as the owner of this site is another one who hasn’t installed a reliable user policy. Landing page here has been put to good use by including some quick fire details about the services content from minimum payout information detailed at $2.50 and the advertising prices.

The advertising list is a bit messy here as it does not seem to be listing in order of price and you will find prices are mixed between useless small amounts such as 25 ads in between 2000 and 3000ads. The prices are not good here as 2000ads are worth $35.00 and 3000 for $50.00. As this site currently only has 1490 members those advertising prices are rip off since there isn’t many people to click the ads which will cost so much.

Industry standard referral options here showing 1 package of 35 referrals for $34.95. Clearly the new PTC sites are not using our service but what they are using is each other to copy each others prices which won’t give any of them the edgy. In the hardware world shops are always competing with each other on price but never seem to copy each other. Over Christmas shops of all natures slam their prices down too. This makes you wonder why you don’t see the same online with PTC sites.

Something interesting we found on the upgrades page here is a promise that if you become a premium member you will be paid within 24 hours or you payment will be doubled. That’s quite a promise and we would like to see them try this once they reach 100,000 members. But of course their policy can change at any time for any reason

Performance

An impressive 15 ads to click here on the first day of testing – no upgrades. All of these ads are worth $0.01 too which makes this a great place for clickers who don’t want to upgrade too early. Looking back to the upgrade offer here the ads are said to be worth $0.02 for premium members. This isn’t very common for new PTC sites to make such promises for upgrades however it appears they are getting a lot of advertising deals. At their advertising prices this is a good effort and explains somewhat on how they can promise so many rewards.

Evaluation

Ok so they have a star trek forum but at least they have provided one which gives us some proof of payment testimonials of the members. This helps the service all together as people have been paid early here in a smart move to get people posting here while the site is new. We can’t say the advertising prices are a down fall here as some companies are clearly buying into it. If this site is legit about its high rewards this could be a great place to stick with for a long term basis for clickers and serious advertisers.

 

We give this site the rating of +3
