GoldenGoosePTC Review


What caught my eye about this site is the low minimum payout limit at $0.50. I figured that this would be a quick way to cash out and put some money in the bank so off I went to sign up. Little did I know, I was naïve and didn’t think about why the payout limit was so low--it was because they don’t pay much for viewing their ads. This site was a big waste of time.

Company Background

GoldenGoosePTC is registered by Mark Sandifur back in October of 2007. It is part of the Premiere-PTC-Network out of Rossville, Indiana. According to Alexa, its speed ranking is very slow with an average load time of 4.7 seconds.

How to Earn Money

Members of GoldenGoosePTC earn credit in their account by clicking on links, reading ads, signing up for offers, and promoting the site via referral links. The good thing about the site is that they have a lot of ads available. Right now, my account has almost 120 links and ads that I can read. However, out of those ads, I’ve got a few that are worth $0.001 and most of the others are only worth as low as $0.0001. This means that I can click all of my available ads and still earn a little bit more than $0.01. It’s nice to have a lot of ads to click, but I don’t really want to spend my whole night in front of the computer clicking on ads just to get a penny.

My Impression

This site uses the same script that a few of the other paid-to sites that I’ve come across. I assume that script is part of the PTC script package that is offered by the Premiere-PTC-Network. The biggest disappointment is that the pay rate for each ad is so low, in the tenth and hundredth of a cent range. That makes earning money very hard in this program. Sure there are other ways to earn money like such as driving traffic to the site or referring new members, but I think a good paid-to program should be centered on a solid base of downline referrals with a decent earning power from viewing its ads. The other stuff is just bonus on top. Because the pay rate for viewing ads with this site is so low, it is simply not worth it to spend time clicking on ads from here.
