Ok as many of you sem to be affiliated to autosurf programs/sites, this may seem to be a stupid question.

What is autosurf?
I have been looking through the post on here to see if it is something I want to add to my freebies site. Some of the post seem to asking people to click ads, some seem to be asking people to advertise. Basicly I have confused myself. So could someone explain what it is and how it works?

An autosurf is a type of online advertising program. Autosurfs are traffic exchanges that automatically rotate advertised websites in one's Internet browser. They are capable of bringing a large amount of traffic to the advertised websites. Members earn credits for each site that they view, which can then be spent to advertise members' sites by adding them to the autosurf rotation. Sites may additionally be added by external advertisers who pay the autosurf operators.Autosurfing allows members to promote websites of their own choice, according to a system of credits earned by surfing. Many people have used autosurfs to earn extra income, sometimes up to hundreds of dollars daily. In this regard, they are similar to HYIPs that can give a very high return. But many of them are scams.

I think what you are referring to are "GPTs" or "Get-Paid-To's". Specifically, paid-to-click/read.

What that means is when you click a banner, which usually is the one displayed, you earn small cash, around $0.0001 or $0.01 or more. Examples are donkeymails, nominimum, etc..

Most Autosurfs need a small amount to deposit. Examples are can be found in this section of the forum.

If take a look at their "plan", let say 12% daily for 12 days,
then if you placed(deposit) $1, then after 12 days, it becomes 1.44$ total earnings.

That's usually the process of autosurfs:
- deposit,
- click "surf"
- wait around 5 mins for the surf to finish.
- then withdraw 12% of 1$ for the day,
- come back tomorrow until 12 days.

Look listen

Autosurf is a controversial form of online advertising, where different advertised websites are automatically rotated in the viewer's browser. Advertisers, of course, pay the autosurf company to have their websites as part of the rotation. Viewers are paid cash or credit to view the advertised websites.

Autosurf sites are rotated automatically for the viewer. No interaction is required for most autosurf programs, so there is usually no way for advertisers to know if the viewers are even seeing the ads.

In fact, many autosurfers leave their computers and go and get a cup of coffee or go to the gym while the autosurf ads are being displayed. This is a huge disadvantage for the advertisers.

Why People Autosurf

The primary reason people autosurf is to earn cash or credits. Some autosurf sites require people to add their own money, which combines some kind of job (watching the ads) with a type of "investment" or "membership."

The second reason people autosurf is to get traffic to their own websites. Some autosurf programs will show your website to other members in direct proportion to how many times you view other websites. For example, you might earn one credit to have your website shown for every two websites you view. Websites that are purely for traffic and require no monetary investment are called "traffic exchange" programs and are not Ponzi scams.

Legitimate Autosurf Programs

There are autosurf programs that do indeed pay their members money. However, it's important to note that the money being paid to the site's autosurfers isn't coming from the members themselves. The money is coming from paid advertisers.

Here is how a legitimate autosurf program works:

Advertisers pay the autosurf company x dollars per thousand impressions. (An impression is when the website is displayed in the viewer's browser as part of the rotation.)

For example, it's not uncommon for an advertiser to pay $1 to $2 per thousand impressions. That means the advertiser is paying the autosurf company $.001 to $.002 per impression. Then the autosurf company pays their autosurfers a percentage of that amount -- for example, half of the amount it gets paid by the advertisers.

That means that an autosurfer would have to have 1,000 to 2,000 websites displayed in their browser rotation to earn $1.00! Since each website is usually displayed for 15 to 30 seconds, it's easy to see that these autosurf programs will not lead to riches.

Now, the companies who are buying advertising know that they are getting impressions and not necessarily visitors. That's why the cost of autosurf advertising is so low. And as you can see, that's also why autosurfers aren't getting rich off of their autosurfing efforts.

Again, notice that in the above example, the money being paid to the autosurfers is coming from the paid advertisers, not from the members themselves.

in my simple understanding of autosurf. it is to view advertisement automatically by pressing the surf button. when the required number of ad views has been reached you will get paid. but of course, you need to fund your account before you get paid.

this is a program help me earn more money

What is Auto-Surf? Basically, you leave your web browser running and it visits a bunch of sites and each time you view a site you get ‘credit’. You can use this ‘credit’ to have people view your site in just the same way. The thing is, people are never at the computer whilst doing this, making auto-surfing fairly pointless, unless you want to inflate your stats.
