GPT sites are popular online earning sites that I consider the one stop shop for earning money online. The main drawback about gpt sites is the earning potential, is gpt sites slow earners. To answer your question, it would be a yes.

Why are GPT Sites Slow Earners?

Low Pay in General
GPT sites are low earners because they offer low pay in general. The different task do not pay a lot. With that being said, you should not expect to earn a lot of money from these type of sites.

Points
Many gpt sites pay members in points that can be converted to cash payments and prizes. Most sites have a low conversion rate.

It Has to be That Way
This is so, because these sites have several thousand members. If these sites were to pay a large amount money per task, they would not be in business long.
In closing, gpt or get paid to sites are good paying hobbies. Check them out for yourself.

This is the most important perk about joining a paid survey site, getting paid. Some paid survey sites, pay really well.

Cons

Before you can take the acutal survey, you have to pass the qualification survey to see if you qualify. This can be a nightmare for some, you might not always pass the qualification survey.

In closing, I suggest trying survey sites for yourself. Experience is the only way you can determine this.

What I like about Shorte.st





Photo Credit: Pixabay
I joined Shorte.st last fall. Since joining the link shortener, I have had okay progress, however, it is the best link shortener I have used. Below is my opinion of Shorte.st.

What I like about Shorte.st
There are several things I like about Shorte.st For starters, Shorte.st offers multiple ways to earn, using their scripts and other features. I like the following features about Shorte.st: it works on Blogger, they pay via PayPal, and it has many features.

It Works on Blogger
I have tried two link shorteners before Shorte.st, adf.ly and Linkbucks. Adf.ly scripts never worked, and Linkbucks scripts worked for a few months but stopped working. I was relieved when I the Shorte.st scripts worked on my blog.

PayPal
If you earn money online, you are aware that PayPal is the most used payment processor, and Shorte.st uses PayPal to process payments. I already had a PayPal account, which I happen to love.

Many features
I really like the features at Shorte.st. I like that you can add the features into one script and not have one option. For example, users can create one script that includes entries, exits, and clicking on the links within the blog. I also like that bloggers can use quick link. Quick link, allows users to put http://sh.st/s in front of links; here is an example, http://sh.st/s/http://makingextradollars.blogspot.com/2015/11/write-for-article-document.html
 
In closing, I highly recommend using Shorte.st. In addition to the things listed above, members are given access to a colored system that distinguish the amount they made for each category (entry, exit, and clicking on links).
