Brief
history
PTC-HOUSE is another site running the old AuroraGPT script but a while
after this site released it became very popular making it into the alexa
board at quite a steep rate. After it reached its peak it has gradually
been dying down probably because there is no forum here. The script here
seems to have more of a security issue with admin panel clearly shown to
any member before and after they log in. Since this site has started its
peak of popularity has gained the site around 4,139 members.
Design
The
design of the site is not bad for a site running the Aurora script.
Usually this is one of this scripts that come with a formatted design
that is very difficult to change. Here the design has some modern
influences and this is good to see. There are no cheesy custom banners
that look like they were made in MS paint in less than 10 seconds.
Overall the design is simple and helps give off some impression of
professionalism.
Advertising
Advertising is very much the same as it is on any Aurora site with the
standard x-credits, banner and rotator ads combined with the featured
PTC ads. As the standard PTC ads are the most used we will focus on the
prices there. 800 are $4.00 and 2000 ads worth $10.00 so the advertising
is good value for a site that is within the Alexa board. This indicates
that advertisers could be the real winners on this site.
Referral system
Luckily
instead of the seemingly useless referral builder page you can just
simply purchase referrals on the purchase page. The prices are good here
as they match the non 100% natural down line. The packages range from 10
referrals to 40 and the final page of 40 referrals is just $20.00. On
sites like these if you are going to purchase referrals its best to
start with something in-between such as 20 referrals just to test if
further purchases are worth it with good value for money.
Upgrades
On this
site there are 2 upgraded membership packages. The first page is for 1
year’s membership with a price tag of $40.00 providing the following
-
10%
Down line Earnings
-
1100 Link Credits Upon Joining
-
4000 X-Credits Monthly
-
35000 Banner Credits Weekly
-
35000 F. Ad Credits Weekly
-
35000 F. Banner Credits Weekly
The
other package works on a weekly basis giving the ability to choose just
how many weeks you would like to be upgraded for. Probably playing for
more profit activity this site has included more benefits in this deal
than the year’s membership.
Performance
Unfortunately the performance turned out to be quite bad here as the
earnings PTC section contained nothing but 4 points ads. Points
generally mean nothing with online business and unless its cash you are
obviously not making much use of your time here. There is a paid to sign
up section here that gives you a good $0.15 for each sign up which makes
this section probably the only thing saving the sites overall
performance.
Conclusion
There
needs to be an effort on this site to provide cash ads of $0.01 each
which can be achieved by self promotion of the website and an effort to
show advertisers that this is a secure and reliable site. If a site has
made it into the Alexa board they can use this so boast for extra
advertisers. It is good that this site has included a referral purchase
area and holds some very cheap prices on advertising and referrals given
that this is not a site holding 100% performance.
On top
of some of the sites lack of performance is also the lack of key
features such as a forum or proof of payment page. Because there is no
proof of payment or sign that anyone has been paid this site is losing
some good points. These features are not hard to attain and certainly do
no harm.
