Paste, Share, Earn – PasteWeb.com Review

Paste, Share, Earn – PasteWeb.com Review

by ·

This is a paid post sponsored by PasteWeb.com

I will be honest with you guys, when I was contacted to do this review I was a bit hesitant. But ultimately I decided I can accept this review and share to you what this program is really all about.

Paste Web is a website that allows you to earn by just pasting stuffs and letting people know of what you pasted. To be more detailed, you start things off by pasting literally anything. Then after that you will be given a link where you can share what you’ve pasted to your friends. How are you gonna earn then?

You are going to earn $0.5 per 1000 visitors that see your paste. If you’re going to ask me that’s a small amount since most CPM companies pay people a dollar and above per thousand impressions. Their minimum payout is $20 and its paid out every week as long as you meet the minimum.

Navigating and testing through their site, I found out that the system is easily gameable. The number of impressions goes up even if you just refresh your own paste over and over again. I don’t think the system detects hits from same IP address and stuffs. Obviously that is one thing that they need to fix or prepare to be gamed.

They also have a unique referral system where you get 10% of the earnings of the person you referred. And the best thing according to them is that its forever so as long as your referrals are earning, you are getting paid as well. So if you don’t like the site, all you could do is refer as much active users as you can and then have them making you the money. Again don’t expect that much money since it’s not really going to make the bank

Design

Site wise I cannot really review them that much as they are sporting that very simple, oldish look. It reminds me of old sites who use tables primarily for their design and stuffs. If being simple means more profitable for them, then they’re heading the right way design-wise. Here’s a quick look of the site:

I feel the site is lacking a lot. They should’ve had a FAQ page so that it can answer the basic questions about the site. They should also have that about us page so for people to understand they’re for real and etc. There were also some instances wherein the client area is not working properly. Overall I think they need some sort kind of a redesign both for aesthetics and usability

Conclusion

I would speak frankly about it. If you’re into building real online business I don’t see the reason for you using this service. After all it’s no different from get-paid to click, and survey sites which I always deem as a waste of time. You could very much benefit more by exerting your effort in building real sites with real income potential.

Second, I really cannot speak so much if the site really pays or is just another scam site. After all, its new and doing some research I really haven’t found anyone yet using this site. I also question the business model as a whole. How can they pay that money? What are they getting in return to be able to have that fund to pay out a lot of people?

As a whole, it looks a pretty decent site. Knowing majority of my readers, I know this may not really suit you. Comparing to building a more reliable business model, the only advantage that PasteWeb.com offers is that it can give you that small startup income that you can definitely use to jumpstart your business. And yes, you always hear me emphasize the importance of startup income.

What do you think guys? Has anyone here ever tried that site yet? If not, then please check them out at PasteWeb.com

    This is pretty interesting to hear and I would welcome any other comments from people who’ve already had an experience with them.

  7. the site itself looks insidious and deceptive. How can this site even not include FAQ and About us pages. Its a huge turn off not to have it and I think thats easily what seperates legit sites from not.

    Mike,

    I appreciate your feedback and will integrate your concerns ASAP.

  8. Jimmy, I don’t know what your username is at PasteWeb but I can assure you that all payouts that were due have been paid.

    All earnings are adjusted on a Sunday before payout on a Monday. The adjustment process involves sifting through the unique views and removing any ‘black hat’ or ‘paid traffic’ techniques.

    We have a had a minority of users that have bombarded their pastes with ‘bot’ traffic, obviously this is an abuse of the system and users will not be rewarded for such traffic.

    We ask that all users are honest with their traffic techniques and we will reward you for it.

    99% of our users are honest and use the service in a legitimate way, sharing their pastes in forums, twitter and facebook. Unfortunately you have have fallen into the 1% of users that have abused the system.

    Unless I missed something, the site reads 50 cents per 1000 visitors, as does the opening post here.
