So now when you know at least something about making money over the Internet (assuming that you are familiar and have read my full tutorial entitled “get paid to upload websites explained“), I will try to tell you more about Internet sites, which pay users to upload and share files by using free media hosting websites.

As you may already know, the process behind earning money with files is pretty simple – file hosting companies keep your media on their servers for free (as any other free file hosting company) and reward you for every download of the file you have shared.

They earn money from your downloaders and are ready to give you a revenue cut. So the company (UgotFile.com) I will be talking about now is not very different (and perfectly matches the description above) and it will give you an incredible chance to make money with your Internet files.

Here is some stats of this get paid to upload website (Ugotfile.com):

Money for every 1000 file downloads: up to $10 (cookie program)
Higher download rates from such countries: United States, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco, Switzerland, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Netherlands, Norway, Italy, Sweden, France
Minimum and maximum file upload limit: 1mb / 400 mb
Money needed to cash out: 5 dollars
Referral bonus: up to 50%
Additional facts about the paid to upload site – this website is pretty different from other websites I have been talking about, but I will still review it and tell you more about it. Here you can’t earn 20$ per 1000 downloads (like at Uploading.com), but this program still has some benefits.

If you join the affiliate network and download your files you will be earning special points (cookies) – you can see the list of the countries which give you more cookies (up to 10 cookies per download). 1,000 cookies is equivalent to $1.00, which means that you will make 10$ for one thousand US file downloads.

But this is not the best part about this site – if you have some interested friends in paid file sharing – refer them and tell how much money they could make at UGotFile.com – the reason is 50% referral bonus program from UGotFile.com.

Anyways, it does look like another good get paid to upload website, but I have not tried it yet. I do like Uploading.com and making money with LetitBit.net (both websites bring me cash from both file downloads and referrals).

But several days ago I have received a comment telling me that my review is a bit outdated already, that is why I have decided to make a post, in which I would write about new changes and updates, which happen to Uploading.com. The comment is as it follows:

Distant said – I believe information about rates is outdated a bit, they pay now the same rates for all countries involved. I have been using them since autumn and I need to say they provide good service.

@ iambest – I would agree, file sharing work requires some time and constant attention, otherwise you will earn nothing.

Anyways, I will start all over again and would give detailed explanation of Uploading paid to share program. Uploading.com is a free file hosting company, which gives you the opportunity to become an affiliate and make money for your uploaded files.

We all know that every day we share various stuff with our Myspace and Facebook buddies, which is very good, but now you can get money for something you already do online, everyday and for free.

At Uploading.com you will be paid for every file, the capacity of which is higher than 1mb (so uploading small pictures won’t really work) and the maximum file size is 2gb (as far as I remember).

So Uploading.com provides a smart file uploading and reward system for all affiliates. Now you will be paid for downloads from 36 countries (list will be published later on) and Uploading dot com is working on expanding the list of supported countries, which is very good.

The amount of money you get per downloaded file depends on your member status and the size of your uploaded file. It makes sense that you get more money for larger files and the higher your rank it – the more money you make. Now lets talk about user statuses and possible Uploading.com revenue.

When you sign up with Uploading.com, you are assigned the 2nd member status (I guess it’s just a small encouragement). After that you will have to gain higher status to make more money. Here is a table, which shows you the amount of money you can make for every 1000 downloads at Uploading.com (according to member status and size of the uploaded file).

You member status depends on two, but very important criteria:

• the total number of premium account purchases (paid accounts) by the users you have invited to the site to complete a file download
• the more files your users download and the more traffic you can bring – the more cash you get

I hope that everything sounds pretty clear right now, there are a lot of money to be made with Uploading.com – you just have to find the best files to share with your users. Anyways, if you have no idea how to start earning money with Uploading, check out my post – “paid filehosting sites explained“, which is pretty straight forward and will give you some earning ideas.

As for the countries supported by Uploading.com and the payments, you will receive your money within 7 days after requesting to your Epassporte, AlertPay, PayPal and Webmoney account. At this time you will be paid for downloads from these countries:

Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Kuwait, Lithuania, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom and the United States.

PS: Feel free to check out my Uploading.com payment proof (1 & 2) and see for yourself – it is possible to earn money by sharing media files.

Over the last couple of months I have written about several websites, which pay you to upload media stuff (this means any files you usually download from Internet, or share with your friends by using free file sharing). I hope you remember and know about my Hotfile.com review (this is another great get paid to share website I want to give you some tips about).

HotFile.com is not that different from other websites, which pay you for sharing files online, except the part, where the amount you make depends on the quality of your downloads and the number of your downloads. Just check out my review and take a look at the requirements for joining HotFile.com and the member statuses (which depend on the factors mentioned above).

As you can see, it is better to gain the “HotFile.com Platinum Member”, so you can make more money doing less work. But how could you do that? Even HotFile administrators are giving you some tips for getting a higher user rank, but I will give you some more (the ones I have used):

As I have already told, it’s vital to reach higher member status with HotFile.com. This means that your downloaders will give you higher profits.

How To Become Platinum Member at HotFile.com and Earn Money by Sharing Media?

• First of all, find out all possible things about HotFile.com, check out the rates and affiliate terms, the more you know the better. Compare it with other get paid to upload websites and see how this website matches your niche.
• So if you see that HotFile.com matches your needs perfectly try to use only this file sharing website. You can sure use Uploading.com as your second download mirror, but in such case less users (downloaders) will be buying HotFile.com premium accounts and your revenue will be dropping.
• Think about your website users, if you will be trying all possible websites, which pay you for downloads, you will be loosing the users, because usually it’s better to buy one premium account, rather then purchase accounts for Uploading, DepositFiles and HotFile at the same time.
• So another thing that HotFile recommends you is to upload media files only if you are planning to promote them in the nearer future. If you just waste their server space and you file doesn’t get any downloads, they will just downgrade your rank or remove the files you have uploaded (after selected period of time).
• Promotion is the key part when it comes to earning money with HotFile. If you are looking for more money with HotFile.com, make up a list of pretty good forums or high traffic blogs, where you can share your stuff for free.
• From time to time HotFile administrators check where your traffic (people who download) comes from, so if you post your download links on websites that have popups or any other messy advertising, you will just loose rank.

Actually I have given you a list of stuff you should do not to loose your rank, but if you know how not to loose member rank, it will just go up, because nothing remains in the same position – it has to increase or decrease, that’s how we all roll.

Have fun earning money with HotFile.com, but if you are looking for more webistes, which pay to upload, check out the LetitBit.net online earning opportunity and make even more money with your website files.

Anyways, but the last category of people are emailing me asking about this Internet project called Lockerz.com, the one I have been blogging about for several times. I see that many people are excited about finding news about Lockerz.com’s development, but some still think that Lockerz.com is a big scam.

Is Lockerz really a scam website?

Telling the truth, I can not claim anything, but give you some facts, which will give you some ideas whether Lockerz is a scam website, or it is a legit program, which is just being developed more and more.

Why Lockerz.com is NOT a scam:

1. On the 14th of January my brother has received a prize from Lockerz (the shipping took just 2 weeks – good for international member) and you can check out the Lockerz prizes received in 2010
2. Every day I log in to their website, to complete a daily survey and I see that new surveys are being added on daily terms, which means that admins at least do that
3. The redemption page is still closed, but it has tremendously changed and redesigned. I think that is because some people have found ways of cheating their system, so they have just done some redevelopment of their security system.
4. Several weeks ago I have received an email from Lockerz.com stating that the works on the redemption page are almost over and every soon Z-listers will be receiving prizes, which sounds pretty much good to me

Why Lockerz.com is A scam:

1. All you can do is complete the surveys and read Lockerz.com news on their official website. Nothing new is being introduced so far
2. Even though the Lockerz redemption area is being worked on, it is still closed, so no idea when we will start receiving prizes from Lockerz, maybe in February 2010?
3. Well, these are the major drawbacks, but people are spreading the word that Lockerz.com is a huge scam with the speed of light, but I still believe in miracle (I have received a T-shirt from them too, so I guess I have the reason for this)

Anyways, I really hope to hear more from the section “Lockers News and Prizes” in February 2010, but I don’t see it coming yet. If you are still interested in this website, check out the information about Lockerz.com by visiting the link – free T-shirts at Lockerz.com.

Anyways,  have fun earning money online using other techniques, for example you can complete easy offers for money at CrownGpt.com, which is a great GPT website and it is rapidly growing at the moment (only positive feedback – CrownGPT review for more information).

You can check out my Wikinut.com review, if you are looking for the same type of websites. Actually these websites, do not pay you money for writing any specific content, which is a great way to gain some link popularity, if you have some articles you want to submit for fast cash.

Today I will tell you more about the website I have known about before, but I didn’t actually pay any attention to it. It’s called Bukisa.com, and it allows you to post your articles to their directory and make money. According to what I see, there are just tons and tons of articles submitted to this website (we can even judge by the number of the categories) and I wish I could see the number of contributors, who have written and submitted all this work.

Anyways, here you can submit your content here in several simple steps and start earning money almost right away. As soon as you publish your article, you will start earning money – you get paid for every article impression here at Bukisa.com.

Depending on the Bukisa index (which is the amount of money you will be getting for every 1000 page views – I think it’s calculated according the the whole website profit), you will earn ~ $3-$5 per every 1000 article visits (currently this measure is set at $3.4).

This website does look good, but there are some things that don’t really attract me. They do have a referral program, but it is 3-tier referral bonus program (this means that you will earn less money for more referrals), which doesn’t usually work out the way it should.

And the other thing I don’t like is that all links in the articles have a “nofollow” attribute, which gives us no SEO benefit from submitting articles here (well that was my main requirement).

Anyways, here at Bukisa.com you can submit your articles and make some money. I think that you can receive some traffic benefit from this website (as far as it is no follow, and you can not actually get any good backlinks). Just check it out and tell me what you think, but as for me it’s easier to make money with HubPages.com (which is a great website which allows you to post your articles and keep the Adsense revenue share).

So recently I have been working on finding new websites, which pay you to share media files (not that long ago I have written about making money with ShareCash.org). Basically the selected website is pretty different from other paid to share projects, but this is also a great way to get paid for sharing files online.

So new website, which pays you for sharing media files is called HotFile.com, and I will tell you more about it in a few seconds. So Hotfile.com is a free file hosting website, where you can host your media for free and participate in bonus (affiliate) program.

So with Hotfile.com you can earn money while uploading and sharing your media files online with your friends or relatives. So every member can participate in this bonus program and earn money for downloads.

Here are the rates for sharing money at Hotfile.com (price per 1000 downloads):

Earnings Table
Account type 5-50Mb 50-100Mb 100-400Mb
Copper $2 $3 $4
Bronze $3 $5 $7
Silver $5 $7 $10
Gold $6 $9 $12
Platinum $7 $10 $15

So here, you don’t get paid the same amount of money for all downloaded files – here you have rate restriction according to your user status and the capacity of the uploaded file. Later on I will tell you more about accounts types and will give you some ideas on gaining the platinum status.

Just to give you the idea, if you get a lot of downloads from the USA, your user status will eventually raise, but if you get a lot of low quality traffic your account may be even downgraded. As for the countries, you will receive credit for file downloads from such countries:

United States, Canada, Norway, Finland, Sweden, United Kingdom, Germany, Latvia, Estonia, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Belgium, Greece, Denmark, Ireland, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Romania, Australia, Russia, Liechtenstein, Kuwait, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Turkey, Japan and Singapore.

But here, as far as I remember, you get the same amount of money for downloads from all this countries, which is really good. Another great thing about Hotfile.com is that you can refer your friends (who are interested in making money from home) and receive a bonus – 20% of money they manage to make by sharing media files.

To conclude, I would like to tell you that there are a lot of money to be made with file sharing – just look at my earnings example at Uploading.com, which is a superior file sharing website, which pays you approximate 20$ per every 1000 media file downloads.

But I have started working from home almost four years ago, and telling the truth now know pretty much a lot of things, which are closely connected to earning cash online. My first earning experience was get paid to website called Cashcrate.com (it is still working and still offers an incredible cash earning opportunity, if you are interested, just check out my CashCrate.com review).

I can tell that get paid to websites (if you are not familiar with the term “get paid to”, please refer to my guide – “making money from home by completing offers“, which actually explains a lot) are very good for those, who don’t want to spend a lot of time working online, but need to earn bucks fast and free. The online downside of such websites is that only people from the USA, Canada and UK can take advantage of such websites.

Register at CrownGpt.com

Anyways, if you are from selected countries, you still posses such an incredible opportunity and can earn money online. I have been writing about CrownGPT.com several days ago, and now I would like to add some actual member experience (as far as I can not join this website, I will just quote what other people are telling about CrownGPT and will give you the payment proof links).

For those, how think that CrownGPT.com is a scam – I must disappoint you and tell that this GPT website is a pure make money opportunity, the one you can not actually miss out. Just hold on and read what people are telling about this paid to try website.

CrownGPT.com Payment – 1

Well here’s some info then (this is based on the user experience, I would like to tell you again that I can not work with CrownGPT, even if I want it badly):

So officially CrownGPT.com was created and opened in October, 2009. Unlike other huge get paid to websites, where you get a lot of members, huge support forums (and usually less admin support), this GPT website is made for the better support for members, it’s a smaller GPT website, which allows you to click ads (view sponsored advertisements) and sign up for various offers.

Every day click is worth $0.05, and you can visit up to 18 sponsored ads per day. As for the offers, the average price per completed offer or sign up is about $0.60, but there are some that are worth points as well.

CrownGPT.com Payment – 2

The amount of offers varies between countries (as I have already told you at the beginning), US & Ca members can expect to complete more offers, get paid for them more and expect the offer list to enlarge.

So it is very easy to earn money here, and if you are working with Crown GPT, expect to get your earned money fast, because the cashout is set just at $5. All money with be sent through Paypal, and another good thing about getting paid by CrownGPT.com is that they pay instantly (no need to wait for your money).

Administrators seem to be pretty nice and they even pay you to show your first payment proof on their forum (you receive $0.50 for your payment proof screenshot, but it’s still stimulating).

In my guide (earning money with GPT) I have told you that it is almost impossible to make a lot of money online without referrals, but it’s a bit different here, at CrownGPT.com, because here you can at least earn something, even if you do not have any referrals.

Average CrownGPT.com member (with no referrals) can earn approximately $0.90 per day (only by doing daily offers). This sum can be doubled, if you decide to complete other surveys and offers for money. So in such a pace you can actually request a cashout every 6 days, which sounds pretty good to me.

As for referrals, for every member, who join this get paid to website by using your referral link, you will receive extra money. Here at CrownGPT.com, the referral bonus is set at 15%. (This means if you have 5 friends, which will do nothing, but daily surveys, and you refer them to this website – you will earn extra 5$ per week, which means you double your earnings with this website).

But the fun with referral system doesn’t stop here, you will also receive money for your referral’s referrals (2 tier referral system). From such members, you will get 5% of their CrownGPT.com revenue.

I have told you, that alongside with money, you will receive bonus points, which could be later on redeemed to gift cards (which is very good, because you can actually make use of your bonus points).

Another good things about the admin – he put a shoutbox for members, which is pretty active all day long (so you can actually chat with admin and ask him questions in real time).

If you do decide to refer some friends and relatives, make sure you don’t use the same computer or IP address. CrownGPT.com has set a strict limit of one account per household.

Anyways, this is another great opportunity for those, who are looking forward to making money online. As for the International members, you can make money by clicking ads with BuxP.info, which is a great PTC website (and I have been paid by it many times).

I know several people, who, at first, created simple blogger.com websites and were making good money by blogging (you can earn pretty good money by writing sponsored reviews or by showing sponsored advertising on your blog or Internet site pages). What I mean is, it’s sometimes better to be your own boss and earn money with your brain, but maybe it’s just my way to roll.

Basically, the most popular and easy way of earning money with a blog is Google Adsense, which is a superior system, which gives you incredible online earning possibility.

But sometimes you get too excited about earning money from home, so you want to increase your Internet income – the best way for doing this is to add extra advertising option for your blog (as I have already told, you can sell your ad space by offering sponsored reviews for money). But also you can try in-line advertising, which is pretty new and can be easily carried out with Kontera.com.

Kontera is inline text advertising, which gives you money for specific ad links (which are being displayed on your website). As soon as you register at Kontera, you will receive a special code, which will turn your website into a cash earning machine, because any relevant advertising keyword, will be highlighted and converted into an ad link (Kontera ContentLink).

This website is totally different from Adsense (it doesn’t take any of your advertising space, because all advertising blocks are hidden, until you rest your mouse pointer on the advertising link), but here (just like at Adsense), you will earn both for cost-per-click ads and cost-per-impression advertisements.

Nowadays, anyone cash join Kontera (and you can even synchronize Kontera with your Blogger.com account and automatically place advertising widgets on your blog).

I have tested this advertising network for a while, and I must tell that it is looking pretty good (especially if we talk about the revenue – because the average CPC is ~0.2$ – these stats are based on my own experience, and the CTR is pretty high too and ranges between 2% and 5%).

So if you choose to try out Kontera, remember that this website offers you pretty good tools (statistics of your ad clicks, the keywords that give you the most money and other fun stuff). In addition to that, you can invite your friends and receive extra money (25$ as far as I remember) for every active publisher you refer.

All in all, at Kontera you can make extra money with your blog or personal website. Kontera.com pays you out with US dollar checks, as soon as you reach 100$ (which is not that easy to reach, but it is possible). Anyways, Kontera is just another way of getting money from your Internet sites.

Well, I did receive my t-shirt from this website a long time ago, so there is actually no way for me to check whether this site is working and giving away prizes.

But I have signed up almost all my friends and family with this website, and it was weird to me that my brother had got into Lockerz promotion stuff. So he didn’t tell me that he made to the the Lockerz Z-list, which means that you get a free T-shirt from Lockerz.

So several days ago he told me that he had received his Lockerz T-shirt on the January 14th (so I guess that Lockerz is not a scam website at all). Anyways, it starts looking like fun again, and I don’t really know what to do.

Lockerz.com News – January 2010

Well with renewed interest to Lockerz.com, I have logged into my Z-lister panel and visited some pages (a lot of stuff did change since my last visit), and redemption area is still under construction (which looks kind of promising to me). I guess, I will just let this website some time and will update you with any news I can possibly get. Here is the screenshot of the redemption page:

All images are clickable and you can take a look at the T-shirt my brother have just got. It looks pretty nice, considering the fact, that you need just 20 referrals to get such a free gift. I am still offering Lockerz.com invites – check out this link for more info.

Also you can learn more about other ways of earning money on the Internet – Uploading.com is still paying pretty good cash for sharing files, if you want to get paid to upload – find out more about Uploading.com

Anyways, personally I have been looking for websites, where I can submit my make money online content (usually earning guides, payment proof posts and success stories) and earn money, because I find it hard to find good websites, where I can submit my content (even for free).

So far I have been writing articles (about get paid to click websites, because I find this niche very interesting and there are many people interested in earning cash with PTC) and was submitting them to Squidoo and Hubpages (because as you know you can add your Adsense ads to Squidoo lenses and Hub pages and receive extra revenue).

Now that long ago I have received some emails from my readers (the number of which is constantly growing, I have hit over 3k subscribers already) asking me about Wikinut.com get paid to write opportunity. So I have tried this website myself by submitting one article about paid file sharing websites.

My article has been approved in several hours, and as for me I will be earning special bonus points (royalties for ads running on my page about “get paid to upload websites”). As you see, at Wikinut.com you can share your knowledge, publish it (all server costs are covered, it’s totally free to join) and earn royalty points for the information you have online at Wikinut.com (you will earn 50% of the money made by your pages).

I have not checked my traffic stats or revenue stats with this website yet, but I am kind of excited to see if it’s really working (but from what I see so far, it’s pretty exciting). Apart from submitting your own content to Wikinut, you can review content pages (check uploaded articles by users) and refer other members.

By referring new members, you will get the opportunity to receive 10% of the points your referrals make and convert these points to cash.

Anyways, good luck with Wikinut.com, and I would like you to check out HubPages earning opportunity and try if writing articles for money is working for you.
