Hardware Pros AllAdvantage FAQ
(Courtesy of Got Apex?)

If you already know about AllAdvantage and just want to sign up, please do so using our referral code by clicking here.

A lot of people have asked how to make money using AllAdvantage. The first check I got from them totaled a paltry $25.19, but the next is a little better at $246.84. November should put that number around the $600 range, at least (8 days into November and it's already above $300). If I just keep it at around $600 per month, that's about $7000 extra income per year. Not too bad considering how very little effort goes into it, but it's definitely not going to stop at a mere $600/month.

You may ask why AllAdvantage will pay you for surfing.  The reason is simple:  They have huge contracts with many companies to display custom advertisements on a very large number of internet users.  The more people AllAdvantage can sign up, the more people those Advertisers can reach and the more money the advertisers pay AllAdvantage.  This is why AllAdvantage can afford to pay us all this money.

There are basically only 2 main things to take care of to make a good steady, ever increasing supplemental income with AllAdvantage: Surfing and Referring.

1. Surfing

AllAdvantage pays you to surf up to 25 hours per month. It is VERY easy to fill up those hours. How many of us don't spend at least 25 hours per month surfing? That comes out to about 6 hours per week or so. This is what to do:

    1. Start up your Internet access (for those of you lucky enough to have a permanent connection, you can bypass this step)
    2. Start up the AllAdvantage Viewbar
    3. Start your browser. At this point, the RED box at the upper left of the viewbar should turn GREEN. This means you're being paid for the time. The browser MUST be the top process for you to get paid. If the box isn't Green, you aren't getting paid. Here's what I mean, this first picture is not counting your hours:

    This second picture shows a green box at the upper left, meaning these hours are being counted towards your total:

2. Referring

This step is ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL if you want to make good money with AllAdvantage You get paid $.50 for every hour up to 25 hours/month for surfing, however, you get paid $.10 for every hour people you refer surf, and $.05 for every hour people they refer surf DOWN TO 4 LEVELS. There is no cap on how much you can make because of this. Like I said before, there are people running around making in the thousands, with many people making several hundred per month. Is this some pyramid scheme? In a way, but in a way not either. You're buying nothing, and you're not trying to get anyone else to buy anything. Surfing is something you're doing anyway, so you might as well get paid to do it. It's that simple.

Here is an example of how the referral system works:

Let say you sign up for an AllAdvantage account and you referred 15 people who signed up. Let's assume those 15 people each got 5 people to sign up (5 is a reasonable amount especially if they are lazy) . Now, those 5 people are even lazier and only signed up 3 people each and each of them signs up 2 of their friends.  Finally on the fourth level, we'll just take another low number and assume they only sign up 1 person.  Here is what we have:

  • You
  • Direct referrals: 15 people
  • Level 1 extended referrals: 75 people (your direct referrals each sign up 5 new people)
  • Level 2 extended referrals: 225 people (the 75 people from level 1 each sign up 3 new people)
  • Level 3 extended referrals: 450 people (the 150 people from level 2 each sign up 2 new people)
  • Level 4 extended referrals: 450 people (the 300 people from level 3 each sign up 1 new person)

In this example you would have 990 people in your network including yourself. If everyone in your network surfs the maximum 25 hours per month, here's how much you can make.

  • You: $12.50 (50¢ per hour x 25 hours)
  • Direct referral: $37.50 (10¢ per hour x 25 hours X 15 people)
  • Level 1 Indirect: $93.75 (5¢ per hour x 25 hours X 75 people)
  • Level 2 Indirect: $281.25 (5¢ per hour x 25 hours X 225 people)
  • Level 3 Indirect: $562.50 (5¢ per hour x 25 hours X 450 people)
  • Level 4 Indirect: $562.50 (5¢ per hour x 25 hours X 450 people)

Total monthly income: $1,550.00

That is some very nice money for only signing up 15 people!  Of course this is only a theoretical model and not every one in the network will browse the full 25 hours a month and some people will not get any referrals themselves.  Nevertheless, the potential is huge.

First off, let's just start with the most practical things. You want to send people to the right place. You want to send them to:

http://www.alladvantage.com/joinsecure.asp?refid=XXXXXX

Just fill in those X's with your member ID. For instance, mine is:

http://www.alladvantage.com/joinsecure.asp?refid=FYI-995

Pretty easy, right? OK, let's go on to the next step. How to refer people?

Well, the easiest way is to get a website. If you have a website that is generating even moderate traffic, you can get quite a few referrals easily. Banners DO NOT generate the results you want. You have to write some text on why you've joined or what you believe it works. As a Hardware Pros reader, we're giving you license to download the picture of the check they sent us, as well as the monthly statements (ie. October) to prove to people that AllAdvantage is legitimate (as long as you don't modify the pictures without asking us first). This should help you quite a bit, as it has helped us. Our referral pool is growing by 25-50 people PER DAY since we've posted this deal on the website, and that's really helping to pay our bills here (BTW, thanks A LOT everyone!). You can also point people at this FAQ, as it outlines all the basics you need to know to successfully make a substantial amount of money.

If you don't have a website, you can still refer a lot of people. The most important thing to remember is DON'T SPAM. You WILL get your account revoked if you do. This includes posting on BBS's, forum's, and mass emailing. However, two things I have found to be very effective is targeted email and ICQ.

The best way to start is by emailing friends that you know who use the computer and Internet. Everyone wants to make a little extra cash, especially when it's easy. This is a great way to do it. Just write to them and tell them what you've found. You can also attach a picture of my check to prove that it's for real (many people have a hard time believing that companies will actually pay for this). I'll scan in this October's $246.84 check when it becomes available. Don't forget to provide a direct link for them to sign up under you.

As always, if you have any questions or need some help, please feel free to email me. If you'd like to take a copy of this FAQ for your website (and you've signed up under me), you're very welcome to as well. We just ask 2 things:

  • You provide a link back to http://www.gotapex.com/deals
  • You do not redistribute the FAQ. You can either take the redistribution offer out of the FAQ when you post it, or you can leave the redistribution info on here and leave the email link for the request pointing to apex@gotapex.com.
  • You ask before taking. Just email me, plain and simple. =)

Thanks again for your support; let's see how much we can grab from AllAdvantage!
