Bitcoin Forum

Hi, a friend and I are looking to start a Get-Paid-To website (GPT - accepting bitcoin deposits and withdrawals)

The site is offering members to get earn by:

Clicking on advertisements
Sharing Links
Reading Emails
Completing Offerwall Offers (e.g. Trialpay)
Completing Surveys
Winning Contests
Participating in freebies!
Investing in Rented Referrals

The members will also be earning a decent commission from every person they refer, we're thinking up to 3 levels deep!

Advertisers would be able to advertise their business in numerous ways on our site, anything from receiving clicks to their webpage to being able to advertise to every single member via mass email.

We will be offering the following payment methods to users:

- Bitcoin
- Paypal
- Payza
- Gift Cards
- VCCs
- Subscriptions to certain websites
- More?  Please suggest!


We're looking for:

- Potential long term investors
- Interested members
- Interested advertisers

PM me if you are interested in becoming a partner with the site.  I know it's early as for the site has not yet launched but it should launch this summer if everything goes as planned.

We're hoping that you can provide us with your opinion on the site itself, once it releases, but for now, please tell us your opinion on whether you would or would not join the site itself when it launches (and provide valid reasons to back this up).

If you wouldn't join the site, PLEASE provide us with your reasoning and perhaps suggest what we could introduce that would make you want to become an active member on the site.
Know that we value everyone's opinions and are open to constructive criticism.  We might even award some members for their feedback once our site launches.

If you have any questions regarding this, please post here or PM me and/or iNadnerb.

Cheers,
monbux!

I'm not interested to invest into the site, but am interested in joining early on as a member and also want to advertise it for commissions.
Please PM me as soon as you open it for public.
Also, if you are searching for a mod of some sort, i would be interested in that as well.

cheers

I'am going to answer this part "If you would NOT join the site, PLEASE provide us with your reasoning and perhaps suggest what we could introduce that would make you want to become an active member on the site."

I'am not saying that the idea is bad , it's good actually but it's not good enough , I personally would be active if the website was something like Freelancer.com or oDesk.com . that would interesst me a lot :) + what you mentioned on the OP .

From what i understood, it would be something like cashnhits, which isn't bad since you could make paid offer to complete your  needed task, and it would be in bitcoins..
So it doesn't mean you can't use it in a way you would use freelancer.com, right?
imho, good GPT site with bitcoin payments is a really good idea.

cheers

We're planning to invest a lot of time in this project, making it more unique that other boring PTC or GPT sites.  We want to offer the most earning methods as well as advertising methods as possible - with the addition of offering the most diverse payment methods :)  We're planning to introduce other means of payment, such as gift cards (that will be purchased from gyft).  We'll be sure to send out a message if the workload is heavy and we need mods - which will likely be the case as for we will be having a live chat (with other members) as well as a forum to manage.

Thanks for your output!  The problem is, a freelancer site is quite different from a GPT site, and it would be very hard to incorporate both ideas into one business. We will, however, offer high pay for users completing surveys and tasks, higher than the simple paid-to-click.  Would that interest you somewhat?

Correct, the site can still be used as a freelancer website because I believe that we will be incorporating the ability to allow members to create tasks for other users to do.
Also, my partner will temporarily be using the account, iNadnerb.

That's intressting indeed and a lot of people would like that however that's not for me , it's not because I don't like it .. I do who don't like free money by completing tasks ;D It's just that I'am from Algeria and most API's and website that offers tasks via Offerwall aren't available on my country which could be a problem for me  . I tried to complete a lot of surveys on ShareCash for example but I failed hard and most of them not available so idk ...

EDIT : However custom things to do from people like signing up and stuff like that would be good and easy to do and most of them don't require different countries (well depends on Customer)

from my experience with similar sites to the one your planning to lunch , here is my wishes:

1)better reward per task as others are way to low

2)lesser withdrawal threshold so it could be easy

3)the more the task the better , like more daily task or less daily task with higher rewards per task

4)the 3 level you mentioned = hopefully is something that if someone doesn't want to buy or upgrades right away , to be reachable within months at least and not a year

:)

1) We are looking to pay high but the price is solely dependant on how much advertisers are willing you pay... you must understand that.

2) Yes, we're looking at a $2 minimum withdrawal right now.  There will be some fees.

3) Yup, we're looking to introduce as many daily tasks as possible!  You can earn even more with Direct and Rented Referrals!

4) ?  Not sure what you are talking about :-/

I like your ideas. I might partner with you as investor. I PM'ed you.

P.S Don't even think about "rented referrals" stuff. It doesn't work without bots. That makes your site look like a ponzi.

Well, he has there talking about the referrals levels, like you earn 10% from level 1 , 7% from level 2 , and 4% from level 3.

Level 1 : your referrals ( directly referred by u )

Level 2 : The referrals , your referrals refer.

level 3 : The referrals, your referrals referral refers.

I hope you understand :)

We are looking to have legitimate rented referrals only.  If it doesn't work out, we can always be honest and cancel the program.


Ah.  i just didn't get the latter part of his question.  We have not yet finalized the rates of commission for each referral level.

I like the idea and from an investor perspective I have some questions.

1) How would you generate revenue and what forecasts do you have?

2) When will the site be ready to go with all features ready?

3) How much of the equity are you selling and for how much?

Thanks,

DebitMe

Hey,

1) The revenue is generated via the deposits and purchases that the advertisers make - they'll have many opinions, from visits to their websites to making users do a certain task.  Additionally, we charge a commission when connecting the user to the offer wall (which is normal).  We are also planning to sell.

2) Not sure yet, as stated in the OP, if all goes well, it should be released mid to late summer.

3)  We're thinking about 10 - 20% right now, it would depend on how much the INVESTORS are willing to value our business at.  We are accepting offers in PM already, but lowball ones WILL be ignored as for this is a very time consuming task that requires a ton of commitment to run successfully.

Also wondering, would you, the user, be more attracted to the site if there was an achievement/levelling up option?  Not just for bragging rights, but probably for cash rewards as well.

Lastly, tell us which payment method other than bitcoin you'd prefer!

monbux will never promote anything that is not legit, I throw all my weight behind this website even as I am signing up now.

What kind of achievement? like clicking 500 ads a day?  ;D
What is the minimum payout? im curious about the minimum payout
I might be interested if we got pay pretty high for the job
 

For the payment methods see the paidverts i think they are using all the payment methods. You will ger much ideas from them.

Secondly if you need my help, i can also help you, as im close to that field worked in ptc and gpt site more than 6 years.

Thanks

Isn't that bitcoinget.com ?

If im not wrong, i think its not yet formed, its the monbox idea, site is not yet created

I like GPT sites, for me is a hobby, like sites such as possible to have a considerable gain to invite many people to the site. I'm in a site that pays for Bitcoin, but the payment is delayed about 7 days ...
I want to join your site would be great if the payments were polls, and there was a wide variety of OfferWalls as Matomy, SuperRewards among others.

Anything easy and that dosen't require verification of accounts as a start is good , I would prefer Skrill as a secondary payement method personally.
For what comes to the leveling up option , I guess why not ,it could be a very good idea ;D however you should know that this will make people selling and buying your website accounts . (just like they do with Virwox , DaDice and other websites that have leveling) So it's up to you to make against your rules or not .
Also does your website will contain something like ShareCash ? I mean you upload a file ,someone complete a survey and get the file the one who uploaded earn money , is that the definition of "Sharing Links" ?

No, You will be most likely be sharing the link to our website, and be getting paid depending on how many visitors click on that link and their demographic.

Hi, I'd like to be one of the early members for your upcoming aitw. Also I can help with advertising and other stuffs and if things work I might invest some in this. Looking forward to this. Goodluck!

Definetly.  We are planning to make our site as customer/user friendly as possible.  We are in the alpha stages currently, everything is being testing and evaluated by our team.

I'll start adding people to our mailing list soon and we'll send you all the fresh new updates!

Cheers

Do add me to your mailing list also. I have a good experience with GPT Sites, Ptc sites , etc in the past  when I was a noob and just entered in online earning world.

I also want to join your site before launching. Pm me.

In some aspects, yes. In some, no.
We offer more ways to earn money, we also offer advertisers a variety of unique and responsive advertising methods.
We also offer PayPal, Payza, etc. for both depositing and withdrawing.

We are also working on a achievement system, so long-term users can get free benefits.

The site is working, but not up-to-par.
We are still working on design and functionality issues.
It is not live, and is not pointed to a domain yet so it's not www.bitcoinget.com but will work around the lines of that.

as for myself and probably many other people I would say yes , we would be moroe attracted to the achievement/leveling up option as this makes us to visit your website more and do more tasks as well

as for the payments , I think the more payments you could fit in , the better for everyone :)

I have tried some GPT Sites before and try to complete some surveys but I didn't got credited for a single survey. So I request you to atleast implement some paying surveys which can be completed and credited by indian users also.

We have no control over that, neither did the other sites.  We will try to use the most reputable offeraalld and survey sites, but I don't think many surveys are looking for Indian users.

Monbux I know you're s trusted member and all, and sometimes it makes all the difference
but aren't there a crapload of GPT Bitcoin sites already? And honestly IMO it attracts a low quality audience/end consumer

Yes, I'm hoping to get a little extra trust from our bitcoin users because of my reputation here.  yes, I've been in the PTC field since 2010 and honestly there are many low lives there (not to be offensive).  When I say no lives I mean people that are willing to scam for a dollar, people who are willing to work for a cent.  I guess it's not their fault, it's due to the situation that they are in.

Also, I do not believe that there are many GPT sites that are big and accept bitcoin.  Could you please link me to a few?

Id link you when I get on my comp, on mobile right now.
You can take a look at Service Announcements though.

Good luck though, hope you make a great service. It's a really low cost business if you know how to code, and use an API instead of a daemon.

Regards,
Jm Erestain

Thanks!  We are thinking about using a customized script.  Our number one goal is to help maximize the members earnings, as well as provide cheap advertising services for advertisers. I will be making a mailing list this weekend, please PM me if you (referring to anyone) are interested in becoming part of the beta team.

I have no interest in doing the tasks or referring people, but if you are looking for just regular investors I might be interested.

-How much funding are you after?

-What is your minimum investment accepted?

-What sort of expected ROI are you thinking?

I need some details on what you will do with the coins I might invest.

Hey Blazedout419, I'd be glad to answer your questions!

1. We're after funding anywhere from a couple hundred to an upwards of a thousand dollars, during startup only.
2. We're accepting minimum investments of $50.  Contact me via PM if you want to invest in us by other means, not just monetarily.
3. The ROI is very difficult to predict pre-launch.  It will all be dependent on what kind of users we get.  We can provide our investors with monthly and possibly even weekly (depending on their contribution) finance reports as well as overall news.   We can't give an accurate prediction on ROI as of now.  If the site was fully GPT, there would be a great chance that your investment will get ROI.  This is because we basically link the sites that need tasks done to our users, while charging a commission inbetween.

Your coins will be used for many things:
- advertising the business (biggest cost)
- funding the business payment models (there must be a decent amount of cash and coins in payment accounts)
- paying the employees/workers
- funding for contests
- domain, hosting, etc.


If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask :)

unique idea on bitcoin world and can be very successfull if you know how to work with it . let's speak about the investors part , how much exactly someone should invest on the website and how much we will get back , i know it's an investement and there is risks so there should be something like shares to buy , one more thing : how does the developpers and the administration are going to get paid  maybe Taking percentage from completing surveys ?

Check the reply I posted to blazedout:


Yes, a GPT site always charges a commission when the user completes a task.

I'd be pretty interested in this, depending on the payout. Most GPT websites pay extraordinarily little.

Ok, well you can check our payouts when we launch!  We are trying to get in contact with as many offerwalls and companies as possible before launch!
If you're interested, send me your main contact email address and you'll be added to the pre-launch mailing list.

The estimated public launch date should be within a month! :)  More accurate estimates to come.

I may be interested from an investment side, if you can provide more information, :).

PM me/post below what you wanna know(general area) and I can explain it to you

N/M... good luck with everything

Any investors?

Count me in for referring users ;)

Thanks!

I would be interested in investing a bit on the sites behalf, the project could get profitable if the userbase increases and judging by the thread so far it would :D PM me with rough estimations of profits etc...

I think that a level system is very good for a gpt site. I will definitely join your site when it launches,be sure to make some hype. :D
Also list it on emoneyspace and about the renting referral system: I don't think if it will work if you aren't using a bot.

Also if you want a HUGE launch,advertise it on all big ptc sites or top 10 sites on emoneyspace.

Can't do much estimates before the site even launches.  I was in China so there will be some delays but we are still close to our original schedule and deadline.

We'll be sure to release earning and statistics reports asap when the site launches.

@Chrispop, thanks for your advice, we'll be adding anyone interested to our mailing list where we will provide you with updates and special offers!

What kind of an investment are you looking for?

When the GPT Site is going to be launched monbux? I am really excited to be a part of it . Also I am planning to invest my some bitcoins for your project. Investment amount is not much bigger, but it will a contribution from my side for your new gpt.

Looking for investment in cash (via deposit, interac e-transfer) or, more preferably, in bitcoins. I'm not sure if that answers your questions, could you please clarify what you mean by "kind of investment"?


Currently we are looking in the next week or two, if all goes according to schedule.  We will start messaging all potential investors and users interested in testing out the beta version ASAP once the site is almost ready for launch.

PM me if you have any additional questions.

I've replied to all PMs as of now.  I know you investors are looking for numbers, but that's something we really can't provide until after the site launch.  Please note by then, the shares will definitely cost more.  If you want to invest PRE-LAUNCH, please PM me here.  The reason we do not want to provide estimate numbers is because well, there is a possibility that the numbers will be off and we don't really want that.

how much in BTC are you looking for from potential investors? i should have some spare BTC sometime next week and would like to get in on this project of yours. feel free to pm me.

Numbers being off is the norm. Ask anyone that's made a real investment in a company. The reason I backed out is because you apparently don't have a business plan in place. You need to draft a document that contains things like:

1) The market you're targeting
2) Your competition
3) How you plan to separate yourself from the competition
4) Estimated revenue based on good/bad scenarios
5) Risks involved with the type of business
6) Exit strategy and/or growth plan
7) Amount of investment you're targeting in the beginning
8) Your experience in this field, pertaining specifically to this business. Also include any other people that work with you
9) Contact information, for questions or issues

Among many other things. Some of us could bankroll your entire operation if we wanted to, but I won't even talk to anyone about a business that hasn't supplied a business document (and have no problems signing an NDA).

Thanks for your advice, but we aren't looking to supply our investors with a business document anytime soon.  Why?  We are not DESPERATE for investments.  We can already fulfill our monetary needs, but we want to work with the community (seriously).  We're not looking for any 5 digit investments, we're looking more for partners that can contribute something bigger for our business, and help us expand (e.g. advertisement exchanging, promoting our website).  That does include helping us financially, to some extent.

Cheers!

Just an update for users: we are having problems with the hosting (sigh, godaddy) and have been calling them multiple times to try and fix these issues.
In the meanwhile, can anyone recommend any better hosting companies to us?

I've recommended mine to many people. Been with them 19 months now and it's been a beyond awesome experience, so I go out of my way to support them (previous host I was with for 3 years that kept screwing me over). It's FlipperHost (Ref) (http://www.flipperhost.com/billing/aff.php?aff=030). I've dealt with support on a lot of things I caused to go wrong, and they've been patient and extremely helpful, despite being on an unmanaged VPS. Their prices are also seriously top-notch, considering the quality. I highly recommend at least looking into them.

I'm looking into them and liking what I see, their support staff is pretty responsive!  If you don't mind me asking, which hosting package are you with and what kind of website are they hosting for you (e.g. portfolio, PTC, business site, personal site, etc.)

Thanks for both the recommendations, guys!  We want to look for a reliable host as for we want the data to be safe and secure at all times (will be backed up regularly, of course).

Currently considering bluehost, flipperhost, and steadyturtle, we're contacting them.  As an update, the site launch is now delayed by a couple of days due to this, still should launch in mid-August. :)

Not sure if you're looking into FlipperHost because of my posts regarding it, but if so, could you user my referral? :). I've been a huge proponent for them on these forums, as I've been with them almost 2 years and they've been beyond awesome (despite their ridiculously cheap pricing). Absolutely love them! And if you ever have an important question, hit up the "Sales" department there and ask for Ceko. That's who I usually go through and he's worked extremely hard to help keep me happy and resolve any issues I've had.

Yup, we'll signyp with your referral link if we choose flipperhost.  The one major problem that's holding us back is that they do not allow more than 2000 connections at a given moment, which is very bad for a GPT site.

Hey if you're still looking for better hosting you might want to check GeniusGuard out. If you're willing to spend a bit extra I bet the DDOS protection they include in their shared hosting plans would prove useful for your site too. I've been using them for a bit, currently have two hosting plans with them. Support is responsive and haven't had any notable downtimes yet. If you're just starting out I think their cheapest plan would be good enough, I'm sure you can upgrade later.

GoDaddy really sucks for hosting, I wouldn't even register my domains with them either. If anything, NameCheap is also a good alternative. Both NameCheap and geniusguard accept BTC.

Not affiliated with these providers in any way, I am just a customer and just wanted to share my experiences with who I believe is a better provider than GoDaddy :)

Just an update for users.  Our site up but we are finalizing design and setting up earning methods as well as payment methods.  It shouldn't take more than a couple of days to one week.
We will be sending PMs out to interested users asking if they are willing to test our website, we will value your opinions!  Currently only the Paid-to-click earning option is up, as well as the referral system.  We should be able to setup and integrate the survey and offer system soon, but site might be launched without them. 

We're very excited to announce that our site will also have a rewards store as well as active contests (free to participate) for our users.

We will also have pre-launch advertising packages to offer to people who want to get cheap exposure to their website, please contact us if you want us to advertise your website!

That's all for now :)

I wasn't aware of the connection maximum. Have you spoken to Ceko about it to see if they can do a custom implementation/what it would take? They were able to help with multiple issues that are lower/disabled by default, by contacting support (Ceko's the one I mostly go through though).

Bumping this.  We are planning to launch in the next couple of days with the PTC module as well as a gift shop, Get paid to do tasks, referral system, contests, prizes, and of course, bitcoin deposits and withdrawals!

WE ARE LOOKING FOR POTENTIAL ADVERTISERS (we can guarantee clicks and banner impressions as well as send a promo mail to our userbase) as well as people wanting free pioneer membership to our site!

hey what are your advertising rates like? the clicks, banners, and e-mail promos.

Heya,

We are trying to adjust the prices right now to the one we believe is most fair for all users and advertisers (every single advertising package)

I'll send you a pm soon.

ok thanks

Monbux please also send me a PM with the advertising rates when they are ready. ;)
