list of all android apps i use to make money

Here is a list of all apps that pay money to play/install other apps and how much I like them:

1) Make Money  ...made over $200 already

2) Cash 'em all ...paying.

3) Cash alarm ... paying

4) Money turn ....waiting for my first payment

make money playing android games

 A couple of months ago I started making money playing games on my mobile phone. Yes, there are apps out there which really pay you. So far my favorite android is the make money app. I made a youtube short about that which got deleted :-(

Just install the app and start playing games from the list and fulfill the requirements. That may take a couple of minutes for some and over a month for others. Collect the points and cash out for paypal. It's really simple and straightforward. You won't get rich but if you play games on your phone anyways it's basically free money.

earning BTC just via faucets and PTC sites

I'm back at the grind to earn some satoshi or bits for free. Just by farming faucets and clicking PTC links I try to collect as many BTC as possible. Let's see how much I got in 10 days and a couple of hours on the side.

Total sum so far is at 8942 satoshi which are currently worth $ 3,25. And here is the break down of the sites being used:

CoinPayU : 1387 satoshi just by clicking the PTC which you don't need to have in an active window ( so just open in the background) and collecting the 3 free faucets. On my best day I got 173 satoshi.

BTCclicks : 17 satoshi with clicking PTC ads. I stopped using that side as it pays just 1 satoshi per click and there are never more than 11 ads available per day.

freebitcoin : this is an very old faucet that is still running. You can claim once every hour plus one additional wheel of fortune spin per day via email. I made 272 bits here. But there is always the chance to hit it big on this faucet.

SatoshiHero : gambling site which let's you spin for free every 30 minutes. I got a total of 426 satoshi there with my best day being 71 satoshi. 

SimpleBits : here you play a virtual mining game which let's you collect so called scoins you can exhance for bits and withdraw. you can also buy virtual hardware to automate the process. Current balance there is 759 bits. With the virtual hardware you can even take some days of and still earn.

adBTC : this is just a PTC site paying you in BTC. It has very good payout and seems to be legit. On my best day I collected 159 satoshi. And in total I have made 1201 in these 10 days.

Rollercoin: another virtual mining game. You have to play mini games to increase your mining resources or you can buy them via their own rollercoin. My hashrate their is slowing increasing and so is the amount of satoshi I collect there every day. Even on days where I play very little the hashrate does not drop right away. Only downside is you have to play at least 1 game per 24h to not lose your hashrate from games. Right now my account is sitting at 516 satoshi. And today I will collect 80 satoshi at least.

Cointiply : this is clearly the winner on this short run. I was only doing the faucet and all PTC ads each day. This site also offers surveys, shortlinks and games to earn even more. They even have an app available. I made 3361 satoshi on this site alone. On my best day I was raking in 691 bits. 

GraB.TC : this is similiar to Cointiply. It has a faucet and some PTC ads. There are also surveys and shortlinks to make money. But it has fewer PTC ads and I only made 479 satoshi in total with my best day showing 119. 

faucetpay : this is actually a micro wallet which also has PTC ads, offerwall and shortlinks. I was only doing some PTC here and collect more satoshi from Claim Free Coins.  Collecting 220 satoshi in 10 days.

ExpressCrypto : is another micro wallet with offerwalls. I got introduced to this wallet by Cryptslice which was another faucet I was using. But this site went down because of DDoS attacks. Lucky enough I could transfer my 234 satoshi i collect to ExpressCrypto. Now I use the faucet Express Auto Faucet to collect more BTC automatically. So far I received another 70 bits from there in the last 3 days. But my level is still building there. Update: this is out of service :-(

I will continue to use all those websites to reach the minimum payout and will keep you posted if all stay stable and paying.

invested into P2P

In started investing into Peer to Peer (P2P) credits. So you give your money to a website and they arrange small loans to other people who pay you back with interest. 

I'm currently investing in two sites:

Mintos

In Mintos i'm invested for 15 months now and my average return is at 10% pa. But there is currently some money which maybe lost because the bank handling the credits defaulted. Nevertheless I still will have a return of at least 6% pa on those investments.

Bondora

Bondora i just started last month. I used the Go & Grow option there which means they select the credits and I don't have to do anything. It's basically a savings account paying 6.75% per year. But you can access the money within a day or so. If you signup for Bondora they'll give a 5€ starting bonus to begin with.

I'll keep you updated on how this performs over the next year.

myfreeshares - let's check out the adcoop

Let's do another test and see if investing into Adcoop at myfreeshares makes sense. Some time ago I upgraded my account at this paid to click side to a bronze membership and figured out that it didn't make sense in my case. It did cost me $10 and the higher level to me was only worth about $5. You can read it about it in this earlier post about bronze membership. Also I have to add that I still enjoy a passive incoming of 0,6 cents each day from those shares this deal gave me.

This time I'm going to evalute the value of buying adcoop at myfresshares. So what's an adcoop?
It's the brilliant idea by the webmaster of the site to let you pay advertising packs for your referal link. So the webmaster from myfreeshares is buying ads to his website with all the money he collects from all members buying this adcoop deal. Because of the bigger packages he can order this way it should save everyone involved some money. For the webmaster it's a brilliant way to let other people pay for advertising to his website. Let's see if the members will also benefit from this.
Each package or adcoop costs $10 which I paid for with bitcoin I collected on moonbitcoin. Short derail: The best BTC faucet around. Been paying forever to my wallet for just one simple click each day. End derail.
Not sure how much traffic will be directed to my personal referal link via the adcoop. I guess that depends on how many guys join the current round. But one thing is certain this will give me 20 direct referrals as the webmaster is guaranteeing them this month. Looking forward to find out how much money I'm going to make in this month and how many active referrals I'll have at the end of this. If no purchases are done via my link those referrals not to do some clicking on myfreeshares to generate me 50c each to pay for this test ;-)

myfreeshares - one month as a bronze member

In my recent post I mentioned that I upgraded my free myfreeshares membership to a bronze membership. Now after one month the membership has ended and it's the perfect time to write a short summary of my findings.

The bronze membership did cost $10 and I used my earnings from the site. The status includes 60 shares and two ad packages for 1000 clicks. It also provides more clickable links so earning my money and shares is possible. So is the membership worth the money invested ?

For me personally it wasn't worth it. To break even I would have needed to earn at least my investment back. So roughly $2.50 per week or 50 cents a day. However clicking daily on all available links only earned me about 7 cents each day. I reached close to 52 cents in a whole week. Which is about twice as much as a free member but still no where close enough to justify the membership fee. Sure I also earned 4 and a half share each week which provide in a passive incoming of half a cent each coming week for quite some time. But that's also nowhere enough to make up for the $10.
I ended up with one referral I got from the membership but he isn't active so not earning any money. From my two ads (1000 clicks each) only one signup to cashcrate was generated.
The 60 shares I received for signing up are also earning some purely passive income now but it'll take ages until I made my investment back. So from my perspective upgrading is not worth the money.
All in all I'd say that the value of bronze membership is maybe $5. I'll continue as a free member at myfreeshares and earn cents by clicking the links.

myfreeshares - upgraded to bronze member

My earnings on MyFreeShares reached $10 and I decided to upgrade my account and figure out if it's worth it. So by the end of last week I pulled the trigger and used my balance to upgrade to bronze membership for one month. The benefits of bronze members are:

• more ads to click
• 60 shares for free
• if someone signs up to the site without a ref you might be added as their ref
• your own ad showing to other members

As shown in my previous post about penny grinding different PTC sites my earnings on MFS are roughly 27 cents per week as a free member. So I made a little over $1 a month. Now being a bronze member costs $10 per month, so I need to earn at least $11 now to break even on the membership.

There are a lot more ads rewarding money and shares available each day that's for sure. But if it's really worth upgrading I'll see in about a week I guess. I am going to document my earnings again for this month and show the results for you to see.

penny grinding for a month - are PTC and surveys worth it ?

So here are some numbers of my own of clicking links and answering surveys for a month. But I have to admit that I didn't spent a lot of time each day and on some sites I spent less than the others. Let's check out the pure numbers first and let me explain a bit afterwards.

	14.02.0218	21.02.2018	28.02.2018	07.03.2018	14.03.2018	total	average	best week
myfreeshares	7,27	7,50	7,73	8,04	8,34	1,07	0,268	0,31
gptplanet	0,11	0,13	0,16	0,19	0,23	0,12	0,030	0,04
cashcrate	15,59	16,00	17,51	19,14	21,33	5,74	1,435	2,19
mturk	4,16	5,16	5,56	5,76	5,96	1,80	0,450	1,00

As you can see Cashcrate was my biggest earner with an average amount of $1,43 a week which is still really low but I was basically just doing one survey a day.
MTurk which is Amazons site for microtask I was spending even less time. The good thing with MTurk is that you will not be disqualified from a task in the middle of it. If you satisfy the initial requirements and finish the task correct you'll get paid.
gptplanet is a pure paid to click site which rewards you for clicking links and viewing websites for a couple of seconds. The best paying links only pay a tenth of a cent. I'm trying to automate this process but the site requires you to solve a captcha so that'll always require interaction.
myfreeshares is the same as gptlanet but paying better. A single click is worth up to half a cent and it has a lot more high paying links than other sites.

Future projects:
- I will automate clicking for myfreeshares and gptplant as much as possible.
- I will reinvest my earnings into myfreeshares as soon as I hit $10 to upgrade my account and receive more high paying links.
- I will test how much many I can earn on cashcrate in the single day doing each and every survey available.

Superclix and Amazon Challenge - Result

So finally here are the results for the Superclix and Amazon Challenge. And surprise surprise I lost. I only made 1,51€ while my opponent made ~30€. He made most of it with just one niche side called anti-gurtwarner.de promoting a cheap Amazon product. I already paid my bet and we will do another challenge from January to end of June. This time counting all online incoming.

And i'm going to crush him this time. I started right after New Year and made a very stream lined approach for some quick cash. I did send ~300 unique visits to one high paying product on superclix in about a week. Didn't get a single sale and was frustrated and changed the product. Checked my account just now and see two open sales. If they get approved I'll write a detailed report how I made it and show it step by step...
This would give me a huge lead in the current challenge. My opponents next niche side www.kuenstlicher-tannenbaum.info most likely won't make any money until next christmas.

FreeBitco.in - Faucet plus BTC lottery

Faucet

Found another really nice BTC/satoshi faucet called FreeBitco.in. You can claim every 60 minutes and it's paying up to $200 in BTC. Of course to reach that you have to be very lucky. They payouts look something like this:

chance	satoshi
0,9885	257	254,0445
0,01	2571	25,71
0,0008	25715	20,572
0,0004	257149	102,8596
0,0002	2571487	514,2974
0,0001	25714873	2571,4873
1		3488,9708

So the EV (expected value) per try as ~3500 satoshi which is a lot. Of course most of the time you'll only receive 255 which is still good for an hourly payout at an faucet.

BTC Lottery

In addition to that there is a lottery every couple of days which is worth a couple of BTC (yes, BTC not satoshi) for the lucky winner. You receive two tickets for every faucet claim you make. Or you can buy tickets of course. That's of the last drawing looked like that:

Lottery EV
tickets	89749484
satoshi	655617598
EV per ticket	0,73049735

Yes, that's more than 6 BTC played out. Jackpot was 3,28 BTC !!!
As you see the average value of each ticket is only a fraction of a satoshi but as I said it's a free giveaway on top of each claim.

Rewards

You also receive two reward points for each claim you make. Reward points can be traded in for BTC, giftcards from egifter, electronics like smartphones or bonus lottery tickets and bonus payings on your faucet claims.

For only 32 RPs you can boost your faucet claims by 10% for 24 hours. Which seems to be the best value as far as I have analyzed them.
Or you can choose to boost the amount of RPs you receive for the next 24 hours for 12 RPs. Which of course only makes sense if you are able to claim at least 13 times in that time frame.

Testing out MyFreeShares and LeadsLeap

I'm currently testing out two programs to earn some extra money and get traffic. Both are around for some time and have proven that they are legit and are paying.

MyFreeShares

MyFreeShares website looks a bit dated and often shows text links only but it is a proven PTC (payed to click) provider. Meaning you get payed to click and view other websites. You either receive some fractions of a cent or so-called shares. Depending on the number of shares you have you are also receive money each day (while returning 1% of your shares). So even if you don't click on a given day you still might get some money from your shares.
Just like with CashCrate you can also do certain tasks, watch videos or do surveys to earn money or shares. They often have the same tasks available. So far after 3 days I made the following:

Total Cash Balance:	$ 0.1229
Total Shares Balance:	1.5825

LeadsLeap 

Now LeadsLeap is a mix of traffic exchange and PTC network. I actually found it while earning on MyFreeShares. If you click the displayed Ads you earn credits which can be used to display your ad to the rest of the network or exchange for cash. The advantage is that members are rewarded to view the pages longer. So you don't hop off the page as soon as your click has been registered.
You may also include their widget into your website or post for a free traffic exchange just like that:
I'll monitor both sites until the end of the week and keep you posted how much I made during that time. If you already got experience with those sides I'd be happy to hear about it. Or come along and try them and report how successful you are using them.

BTC faucet case study: bitcoinker vs moonbitcoin

Last two weeks I noted down how much satoshi I collected from my two favorite faucets (bitcoinker and moonbitcoin) and how many clicks that took me. So here are my results for those 14 days of farming BTC.

bitcoinker	clicks	per click	moonbitcoin		clicks	per click
5141			2302	343	10	230
5789	53	109	2675	418	10	268
5767	50	115	2163	0	8	270
5037	45	112	1997	302	7	285
0	0		0	311	0
0	0		0	672	0
4522	50	90	2362	412	7	337
0	0		501	372	1	501
4597	47	98	1927	253	6	321
717	9	80	1900	262	7	271
5111	53	96	2149	375	7	307
0	0		534	279	1	534
0	0		0	281	0
3499	44	80	1952	280	6	325
40180		98	20462	4560		332

I made a total of 65202 satoshi in those two weeks. Most of it was collected at bitcoinker faucet but it also required a lot more clicks. Each claim is worth ~100 satoshi there. While the average claim amount at moonbitcoin was ~300 sathoshi. If you just click once a day you'll receive around 500 satoshi each day. If you click at least once a day that amount also increases 1% each day up to 100%.

Happy fauceting...!!!!

Reached my first payout at CashCrate

I reached the payout on CashCrate after doing some surveys and signing up to some free browser games. YEAH...

Price of Monero (XMR) is so good it makes sense to mine again

With the exchange rate of the crypto currency Monereo (XMR) being so high (1XMR ~ 8 €) it makes sense to mine again. So everytime I'm using my PC right now I also start my miner for the MinerGate pool.
I also just got a Raspberry pi zero which consumes very little power and I might set it up as a permanent miner.

Superclix and Amazon Challenge - Update #3

New update about the Superclix and Amazon Challenge. Sadly no income at Superclix for me but I made 24 cents with the Amazon partner program. He didn't make any money this month so I closed the gap a (tiny) bit. Traffic for my blog has increased again but not enough and I'm still not selling enough products. I haven't started with the two new niche sites as I planned to so that's still on the list and should help improve my numbers.

Bitcoin challenge: Moon Bitcoin and Bitcoinker ...win 100000 satoshi each

Making money on the internet requires consistency. And with some bitcoin faucets this is a requiment to earn bigger amounts. So to motivate you and me I'm starting this tiny contest and give away some extra satoshi to the winner(s). It will be two different contests each awarding 100000 satoshi to the winner and a link with your referal code on this blog.

Moon Bitcoin

Biggest daily loyalty bonus until end of year wins. Post a screenshot of your highest daily bonus percentage from moon bitcoin.

claiming satoshi on moon bitcoin faucet

If multiple people show the same daily bonus the first one wins. I think my highest point was something around 38 or so. Be sure to store your screenshots each day because you never know when you are unable to claim and fall back to 0%. Post the screenshot at your blog/site (or just upload to imgur.com) and include your BTC address and moon bitcoin referal code.

Bitcoinker

At bitcoinker the winner is selected by highest amount earned on a single day until the end of the year.  Some rules as above apply and your screenshot should look like this:

Here the BTC address and referal code is visible so the screenshot is enough.

Good luck everyone! Hope this helps to motivate you even more to farm those BTC faucets and earn some money on the way.

Starting a new niche site

Because my Amazon affiliate traffic is so low on my existing niche site I'm going to start a couple of more sites and blogs. I brainstormed a couple of niche ideas and will create sites or blogs for them in the next couple of weeks.

I'll document the process in this blog and also show my results.

I researched keywords and traffic via the google adwords tool. The keywords I'm aiming for generate about 400 searches per month. And the websites I found aren't really informative so I think adding content should be fairly easy. I also have a couple of Amazon products which fit this niche.

Next step is to create a webpage and write content about the topic. Afterwards I'm going to generate some backlinks and initial traffic.

This should generate some income for my Superclix and Amazon challenge.

Superclix and Amazon Challenge - Update #1

The first two weeks of the challenge are over. I wrote two posts at my blog about german browsergames. Traffic is still low but increasing. No clicks or even signups so far to Superclix from there. My other niche site advertising products from Amazon I didn't do any work and also had no sale there. So I am still at 0€ for the challenge. My opponent at least made something and is currently in the lead with 1,85€ ... Just two leads ahead of me right now. Nothing I can't make up in the next 6 month.

I plan to advertise the upcoming Amazon Prime Day and hopefully can make some money that way. Traffic to the blog should also increase if I keep up posting at least once a week. I'll also create more content for the Smoothie niche site and have another idea in mind that I'm going to implement soon.


Read about the challenge here.

Superclix and Amazon Challenge

Started a challenge with a friend of mine who can generate more money online at Superclix and Amazon. Superclix is a affiliate network based mostly on german or german speaking offers but also some world wide offers. Winner of the challenge is who makes the most money until the end of the year.

I need to get my blog about german browser games up to date and put out new posts on a constant basis. Not sure if I also start one or two new niche sites to promote some products from Superclix. I will post updates about my progess here.

Income Report - July 2015

Earnings in July 2015

Another bad month for my income. As always below are my various online money makers. I didn't write any new content for my blogs and the niche site I have to admit. So of course there was little to no traffic to them and absolutely zero sales/leads/income from all those. 
I logged into Cashcrate a couple of times but didn't feel like doing any surveys and there was no offers or tasks to do. Again, my bad. If you don't put in work you can't expect to earn something.

But here are the numbers for July. I include numbers from last month and total for all time reference.

	Older	June	July	Total
Adsense	1,39 €	0,00 €	0,00 €	1,39 €
Amazon	4,84 €	0,00 €	0,00 €	4,84 €
Superclix	10,99 €	0,00 €	0,00 €	10,99 €
Cashcrate	15,63 €	1,14 €	0,00 €	16,77 €
Marketglory	82,49 €	1,40 €	2,40 €	86,29 €
Total	115,34 €	2,54 €	2,40 €	120,28 €

Bitcoin / BTC

Made way less this month from bitcoin faucets. About half of my income from last month but I added a new faucet to my list which I haven't paid out to my wallet yet.

Bitcoin Faucets   0,00211792 BTC  (right now ~ 0,55 €)
