Global Takeoff is a banner advertising network, which computes revenue based on the number of impressions and country of origin of the traffic. The minimum payout is $25 and they promise to pay within 30-45 days of the close of the month. However, no payment has been received and there is no reply from support to emails.

Neobux is one of the most popular PTC’s which pays you to view ads as they offer instant payout. If you have a large number of referrals, you can get a steady source of income . However, you get credited for your referrals earnings only if you click ads that day. Else your account is not credited any money. So if you can end up losing several dollars a day, if you do not click on at least 4 ads a day on Neobux.

In the last 2 months there seems to be an increase in the payouts from Squidoo. While the payments from most PPC programs have decreased due to the recession, I have received more from them and reached the payout threshhold of $5 faster.
Are they sharing more, or are more high paying ads being displayed?

One of the factors to be considered for payments is the size of the company. The larger the company, the better the systems it will have in place for payments, so you are likely to get your payment on time.
However, some large companies delay the payments to their vendors a lot, and these are best avoided. In the current economy, many companies are facing a cash crunch.

Though PPC is today the most popular advertising method, used by a majority of the websites for monetization, there are some major disadvantages. Unless you closely monitor your websites, you do not know who is advertising on your website. Also many ad networks use geotargetting, so you will never see the advertisements displayed in other countries.
For other advertisement methods like banner advertising or paid reviews, the advertisements are constant, so you know which products are profitable and sell well online.

Most online advertising networks have an option by which you can withhold the payment till it reaches a certain amount. This option is useful if the payment is sent by check in US$ and you live in a foreign country.
Many banks charge a fixed amount for converting a foreign currency check to local currency and this amount can be as high as $7 per check irrespective of the amount. So if you have a small check, most of the payment will be wasted in bank charges. The disadvantages of holding payment is that the company may no longer exist after some time, and you may lose your money.

Most online advertising programs use basically 2 different payment systems
Periodic payment – usually weekly, once in two weeks or once a month. Some programs may have a certain minimum amount after which payment is made.
Request payment – you can request payment after the amount in your account reaches a particular threshold. The payment is then processed in a few days or once a week.
Both systems have their own advantage and disadvantages.

In the next 2 months, I will focus on how to sell the inventory available at my websites. I have a lot of advertising space available in a number of subjects, but if no one is willing to buy it , it is wasted and I don’t earn anything. Some times, you do not meet their advertising standards, but with every rejection, you learn something and it is an opportunity to improve.
I am looking for networks which pay on a daily basis. Ideally, the company should not be too big, most big internet companies don’t care much for small customers.

If only a small amount has to be paid to you by Smorty, you will get the payment quickly. For larger amounts, it is some times delayed by a few days. The posts are usually approved five days after the task is completed and payments are within ten days for amounts less than 20 $.
Update: This time the payment is delayed by more than 10 days.

I received the first payment from Smorty within a week, the second after 10 days, but now it is more than a month and I have not received any payment. Their support is also not very helpful.
