Many people look at the Get Paid To (GPT) websites as a big source of income. And it really is, but for that you have to invest when you start. Money, time and effort.

The first steps are the script, the host and domain name. This may seem easy, but never is. There are tons of scripts out there and they all claim to be the best. When I launched my first GPT, I bought Aurora GPT script. Because it was cheap (not much, but still was, when compared to some others) and the biggest sites had it. Well, this was the biggest mistake I've ever made. Although the script is good, it is filled with bugs. In addition, all the cheating bots support this script, so you have further to invest in an anti cheat script. So, besides the $30 for the script, I spent another $70 on a good anti cheat script.

When it comes to the hosting part, you have to think and choose a good one. You can't go with the first company you find. GPT are always running and always have lots of users online, so you'll need a dedicated server. Usually, they offer the domain. For my server I have paid the whole year, so here's another $500.

All set? Not even close. After installing and configuring the script, you need to search for advertisers, but they won't come until you have members. How do members come? You have to place self supported ads, on the first days (or even weeks). After that, you have to promote it. That is another investment, and the fee varies from the kind of campaign you run to advertise it. And don't forget that self sponsored ads are what the name says. You are sponsoring them, so you will have to pay your members for that ads.

Meaning, GPT businesses are a huge source of income, only after you establish yourself. Don't expect cash raining in your pockets just by installing the script. Work hard, promote and you'll get there.
