Well today is Friday again and let's look at updated member growth data affect on ranks and overall progress of programs over last week.
As usual PhoenixSurf still shows all the signs of true leader and still leads but their move to new server and recend DDoS attacks only slightly reduced difference from second place in total points.
Biggest progress was of course made by Compactsurf which has secured 3rd place in combined rank which is result of consistent prograss in every rank.
Recently added raising star eDataSurf has also showed quite noticable progress. First it managed to become most popular program and now
it conquered relative growth rank which is quite remarkable considering that this program started just 5 days ago. Once I receive first payment from it
I won't be surprised if it manages to get near top 5.
Another quite remarkable progress despite all the caution signs was shown by WiredSurf
which nearly trippled their weekly member growth over last 2 weeks. I received all my pending payouts from them today
so all I can say it seems they managed to recover and are gaining back the strength and momentum with every day since those changes. Recent payouts of all delayed payments returned it into top 3.
EyeSurfer also is showing quite good consistency in progress which I am glad to see as this program has quite good potential and is one of my favorite at this time despite it's high risk ROI.
14dailygold showed quite good members growth over last week and if not for new raising star eDataSurf it would still keep the best relative growth rank. Coupled with recent prompt payment I received placed it very near to top 10.
AlienTrust has given up two positions in result of payout procedure transition to virtual money cards. I still haven't received mine but expecting it any day.
Totalrune was climbing slowly and consistently and their relative growth of 10% is quite good result but slightly delayed payment which I requested on Tuesday doesn't allow it to get further and made it drop few places.
14dailyplus is becoming less attractive with each day as I already have 3 pending cashouts for almost 10 business days for first one. Although they are communicating with members and faced some problems during last week so I still see some hope of them recovering but be very cautious with this one until situation clears out.
KnightSurfers dropped out of top 10 and Surfice is near to same result. Both had extremely low members growth which for few months old programs is death factor. I don't recommend these anymore and will remove them quite soon. |
 |
WiredSurf is back into business. Today I received both my pending payouts. One was pending since 18th but second one expired only yesterday. So I can conclude that they finished all the changes and now are getting back on track quite fast. It is now back into 5 star category. |
|
Quite good news to those who wished death to Stormscam money processor after their theft in beginning of February. It appears they applied for money transmitter license renewal but were denied. See this report from Fair Trade Authority according to which Stormpay is now out of business officially. Yay to that. Just sad to know what did this scamprocessor actions do to autosurfing business and people involved in it. I am quite sure those who are in this since year 2005 were all affected by this somehow.
|
 |
There are reports of SnailSurf and Star7Group programs not paying anymore. These were quite promoted recently so if you are in it or are considering joining any of these still running programs be warned that chances of not getting paid here are quite high.
Also be very careful with programs like EgoldSpinner and fijifunds members of which are posting problem posts in forums so end might be near here as well.

Sorcex is still accessible at old ip instead of domain name. Use https://193.138.231.234/ to access it while domain name registers with new ip address. Payments are slightly delayed while they are finishing server move so there isn't much use for accessing them right now but at least they are still there and according to reports in members page still doing trades. |
|
PhoenixSurf is under DDOS attack and today is announced as surfing holiday. Site was mostly inaccessible since yesterday already and it appears some rampage of caught cheater. Some guy from South America had 250 accounts which all were deleted. PhoenixSurf support is doing all they can to solve this problem but currently they can't even access mass e-mail to send out information to members about this problem. |
|
First payment from 14dailygold was paid within 36 hours after upgrade expiry and went up 5 places in top listing. Program has quite good growth pace and alexa ranks also show nice progress. |
 |
Another unusual addition to my list directly into 5 star category because I consider this as most legit autosurf program in the industry but before you get all excited about it read carefully details of this new program called MLMAutosurf. It is creation of highly reputable admin Bill Russel owner of CashBackSurf and Autosurfinvestors.com. Bill has also an information site and manages the mailing list Autosurf_News_Uncensored in which he shares his valuable experience and advice on earning online with main focus on autosurfing industry. So as we see reputation wise from administration or owner point of view this program has very good handicap already. Now let's look at the business model and reasons why I do consider it as most legit program. Main reason for such label is that program can sustain itself without any outside revenue income required because this is feature of MLM (Multi Level Marketing) structure. Revenue comes from members who are bringing in new signups to this program. As per terms 40% of your upgrade is used for paying you back after 10 days of surfing but only 10% of this 40% per day is paid. 30% is used to pay your direct referral and 20% is used to indirect referral commission. If you get at least 2 upgraded members in your direct downline who match at least your upgrade then you break even because you will receive 100% of your upgrade paid to you where 60% will be referral commissions from those 2 upgraded members and 40% will come from 10 days of surfing. So this isn't the usual autosurf business model where HYIP feature is used to attract members to such advertising opportunity which favors mostly surfer population.
In conclusion I highly recommend this program but only to those who are promoting their own product, service or in other words to advertisers. If you are only surfing for the earning feature and never promote anything then this isn't for you. Be warned that if you just upgrade in this program and do the autosurfing you will only receive total of 40% after 10 days of your investment and that's it. This makes actual ROI for it negative or -6%. If you don't intend to promote anything you won't be able to earn back initial investment. Some time ago Vince from AlienTrust considered changing his program into this business model but since it was already full of surfers majority of members protested and requested to bring back old HYIP/Autosurf model. Now Bill made same attempt with new program so let's see how it goes. First day already had almost 200 signups to it which is quite good start.
To those who seriously consider this program as your promotional tool you can use my referral offer which will not just give you commissions from downline but also from upline which can get you even in profit with 2 matched upgraded downline members. |

Seems my host is having problems with webserver uptime and my site is inaccessible from time to time during recent days. Don't worry I am not going anywhere. If this host becomes so unreliable I will be moving this site to more secure place.

Another first payment this time from quite popular in some monitors program Prosurfer for 38.95$ and moved into top 10 programs in my listings. It was requested within 3 days after request so well within promised 7 business days. |
|
13th payment from PhoenixSurf for 181$ was paid within 24 hours despite their fasttrack option being disabled while doing the server move. I guess this applies only to new upgrades that you can't set it to fasttrack for few days. Today administration announced details about new Virtual money card and started taking orders for those. Well I decided to wait a bit for my VM card from AlienTrust and will see if I can add it to PhoenixSurf as well and use same card for both programs. |
|
Some good news regarding WiredSurf as most members who reported delayed payments have received even for maxxed accounts. Mine that expired on 18th still is pending but payments are pacing up so hopefully will receive it soonish. Thos who did choose new instapay for their upgrades that were about to expire have already received payments for dates 23th and 24th. Weird approach but well if they can afford doing this then situation isn't as bad as it seemed. |

eDataSurf is quite popular according to visitor popularity rank. So far I haven't seen such high interest in any site within just 2 days. As of this moment this program had 141 unique visitors that were referred by my site which resulted in 15 signups in my downline. As I explained yesterday I do believe this program has quite good potential but I didn't expect it to be that high. Just within 2 days it received visits from twice as much people as currently top program PhoenixSurf had during last 7 days. If it continues to storm into other ranking lists like this I won't be surprised if we soon have new leader :) |
|
My first payout from Eyesurfer was paid within 2 days after expiry of my upgrade. Seperate payment of 75$ for my upgrade and almost instantly seperate payment for referral commissions. This program currently is one of my favorite ones as I love the unique setup and concept that was put into this. After all those clones with slight modifications of one autosurfing script this program has set some new standards to this industry with their original made script. Surfing is quite fun and smooth. It is quite popular according to visits it had from my site visitors and after this payment batch I upgraded it to 5 star category. This program could soon follow the path of Compactsurf in progressing to top of my rank listings. |
|
For those of you that have joined in my downline and would like to get some bonus earnings from my referral offer please be noted that it will be more convenient for both sides if you notify me by e-mail when you make your upgrades and in which program not just for your first upgrade but for the following ones as well. It will not just ensure I don't miss your upgrade but also will ensure faster payments from my side as well. For more details check this page.

Vince from AlientTrust reassured us that Virtual Money isn't just another crappy money processor without money transmitter license. For more details check his news report with several references. If anyone is from Texas and can confirm this info please let me know as my attempts to research this were not successful. However I do believe Vince has done his due diligence about this company before making such serious decision and this response has calmed my worries about another bad decision from autosurf admin when choosing payment processor. I now believe this could become as one of best options for AlientTrust members to receive their payments. Since you can use your earnings in Alientrust to upgrade it doesn't matter if you withdraw them afterwards to e-gold or virtual money. Main fact is that money is in secure place or bank account which hackers can't touch without leaving traces. I know Vince has had some very bad experiences with e-gold so I am not surprised of this decision now and I now tend to believe he made the right decision. If PhoenixSurf chooses Virtual Money over E-gold in 2 months as they announced today it could make some more interesting turns in other program operations as there will be more secure options already setup for them as well. |
|
WiredSurf launched their new instantpay system today which will allow faster payments for 4-6% fee which reduces total earnings somewhat. This is exact copy of fasttrack option that was introduced first by PhoenixSurf. Also WiredSurf has increased their ROI from 1.8% to 2.3% by prolonging upgrade age to 9 days but reducing daily earnings to 15%. As I said earlier there are several reports of delayed payments here and even though I consider these activities as positive thing which could possibly make this program stronger but as experience usually shows such changes and promises rarely help. I recommend holding off with upgrading here for some time until situation clears out and if it actually manages to recover and get back on prompt payments as promised. Situation should become quite clear within this week. |
|
Surfice was downgraded to 3 stars because of increasing reports of delayed or nonpayments made by them. Recently forum was removed to prevent negative feedback from members. All my payments were paid so far and I am in profits with it since I never compounded but I wouldn't recommend upgrading in this program at this point. Risk is just too high that we won't see any payments from it anymore.
Also KnightGoldSurf is now down to 2 stars as Nate hasn't resumed paying as he promised recently and it's just been too long since last payment for any hope that it will recover. |

This is unusual addition to my list. I usually add new programs with only 4 stars because usually programs are started by unknown admins with no proven reputation and once they prove their reputation I only then add 5th star. But eDataSurf I added directly into my 5 star category because this is creation of Ramesh who is known and reputable expert in autosurfing industry and owner of information site eDataMerge. I frequently follow his page which is constantly updated with new information about respectable programs which have been carefully selected. I consider this an honest admin who has earned his reputation already and now is starting his own autosurf program. Consider this as another DadnDaves scenariou where Dave approximately year ago stared his own program after earning good reputation with his information site. Site is medium risk with 2.1% daily ROI and payouts are automatic and done weekly with 6 day delay. Surfing is manual but only 10 pages are required per day which makes it intensive value for ads in rotation. All the requirements for a good surfsite in my opinion have been implemented here. Did I mention it just started yesterday? Well this is unique chance to join a program which is just started but already has good reputation. So this one is highly recommended for your diversification portfolio. |
|
Fifth payment from currently one of top programs CompactSurf. Recent bonus payout request allowed me to request an early cash out for this month schedule which was paid within 6 hours after request. Appears I had missed the link counting for this program href and this caused it to not count visitor interest for this site resulting in last place for it at popularity rank which prevented CS from reaching top programs. I fixed this now and within a week popularity stats for this should be appropriate as well. I expect it to get into top 3 by next friday. |

Sorcex today opened their doors for for new members again. They have been almost daily paying me small ref commissions and in few days I will be receiving first package payout. At this time I consider this one of the best non surfing opportunities so if you are haven't yet joined it try it out. Has good variable daily returns based on sports arbitrage trading which I am currently considering to do myself and provide my research results to you as well. This opening might not be for long because it is planned for short time so don't miss out. |
|
12th payment from PhoenixSurf for 189$ was paid with some delay but still within 48 hours after expiry. Delay they explain with server move and some script problems related to upgrade packages which were solved quite promptly and delay was almost not noticable if they wouldn't announce all those issues that were takec care of.
PhoenixSurf is planning to go same path as AlientTrust did with their withdraw option which means replacing currently available e-gold as withdraw option with Virtual Money card. Umm my first thought was this sux. I am so used to using e-gold for all operations and all these attempts to replace e-gold so far have ended badly and etc. But when I think more about it this might turn out differently. Main reason why AlientTrust went this route was to remove risk of loosing money in any processor which became vital after Stormpay scandal. I do agree that it is critical to secure funds and even though e-gold currently is most reliable it isn't protected against hacker attacks and AlientTrust recently faced another attack. Seems PhoenixSurf is also dealing with some hackers right now when you look at their recent e-mail where they remind us about their e-gold account number.
So what is Virtual Money you may ask. It is just one of debit cards offered worldwide. Reason why this was chosen by currently 2 top programs in industry mainly is because members can have their cashouts received on this card and funds will be transfered into them using bank wires which means funds will be kept outside any money processor in safest place you can think of - bank account. No hacker can get into these without traces. What I don't like about this is that members will have no option of reinvesting received money without hassle of transfering money back to e-gold but there is a possibility that both programs will allow funding using VM which might remove this problem. Another problem I see is possibly requiring separate card for each program but this is uncertain at this time as well and if they allow adding existing card and not require purchasing new one I will gladly use one I purchased at AlientTrust. And last but not least problem I see is that VM is based in Texas (Intgold, EMO and etc) and at this time has no licence for money transmitting outside state which is quite important problem because of which mentioned money processors were closed. So in conclusion this change might be for the best after all but only if VM don't get into trouble with licence issues. I will now try to watch this change and report more if I find anything new. |
|
Also I received third payment of 30$ from Reliable-Investment Hyip from other opportunities listing. I received it within 1 day after request and this one is now in profit zone so will be slowly increasing it's level from now on. |
|
WiredSurf is now downgraded to 4 stars because of several delayed payment reports. They recently started some change plans with increased ROI and shorter withdrawal time but all that was just promises which at this time haven't been kept. Selective payments scenariou is currently used here. Situation should become more clear in coming week but meanwhile I recommend holding your upgrades with this one. |

Well today is Friday again and I updated members data for each program and updated top listings with this fresh data. Biggest growth award still goes to PhoenixSurf which this week was even increased by 30% compared to previous week or in numbers 3201 more members compared to 2139 last week. At this time there is no program that can come even close to this growth pace. This even caused need for server upgrade because cuurent server couldn't handle traffic levels anymore.
CompactSurf is still trailing and also had increase in membership growth by 15%. I am quite glad to see that AlientTrust plans to replace e-gold by VM card withdrawal didn't affect membership growth and it even increased slightly. Biggest improvement was coming from WiredSurf because they doubled their weekly growth from around 500 to 1000 members joined per week after easter holidays and it seems their recent activities are already making improvements they were looking for.
As for growth relative to membership total numbers newcomer 14dailygold has done better than others with 20% relative growth. Eyesurfer recently announced they are finishing their first phase of accepting new members and will close new signups for some time. Appears this was initially planned already.
Overall improvement award goes to Total Rune that has managed to reach top 5 within first week in my list which shows quite good potential for further growth. Their Alexa traffic levels have also doubled over last week and it slowly is returning to levels it had before Stormpay scandal.
So in conclusion I can just say that top 3 still is improving fast and CompactSurf is slowly catching up with them. Rest of programs are quite far from these and their place is changing almost every day with the payments coming and popularity changing. In my opinion this just proves the confidence in those 4 programs and that these will be still paying for weeks to come. |

Yesterday as scheduled ended 15 day period for Naked Wealth investment. This 2 week period was worth 20% on my investment which makes ROI average of 1.3% daily and I received my first biweekly payment right on time. For more details on this investment program check Other opportunities page. |
|
Added few more bad ip entries to Bad IP list page reported by members of those sites who did some test spends which were never paid. Some sites gave links to other potentially dirty programs using reverse ip of the host. So if you find any program not paying anymore or never paying please send me info and I will add it to bad ip list.
Latest addtion publicsurf.com showed 2 related surf sites and fact that it was hosted on server with 203 other websites obviously showed no intention to run it for long time since it wouldn't be able to perform well with membership increase and incresed traffic levels. Surfsites that are planned for longterm are never placed on shared hosts but use dedicated servers and quite often even require upgraded servers once they reach too high traffic levels. That's what is happening with PhoenixSurf these days. Membership growth and traffic levels made this server to become very slow and now they need to move to more powerful one. Admins announced surf holidays meanwhile until tommorow.

Added 2 more programs to my list. Prosurfer has been around for long time and recently made changeover to new site. Has earned quite solid traffic level in Alexa ranks as well. Reports show it still is paying promptly. The trick with free cashout only once per month and other requests with fee is quite smart move and is combination of fasttrack and monthly payout.
Surf2Prosperity has been around for 2 months and in terms is similiar to 12dailypro model of 12 sites per day for 12 days and 12% daily. Cashout procedure is only exeption with limit of max 2 requests per month which reduces their ROI because of required waiting.
Both are not the newest programs but have good reports on many monitor listings with top places in some.

It appears that some programs are starting to drop AlertPay payment processor. As I checked it still is working and hopefully performing transactions but it appears their customer service and issue solving is quite poor and admins choose not to go into trouble of manual payouts because AP doesn't allow mass pay or has problems with it. Well once again E-gold is the best choise with their protection from creditcards fraud where people buy upgrades get payments and later chargeback initial upgrades which has brought down already several payment processors like IntGold, Stormpay, EMO and others. E-gold doesn't allow direct funding with credit cards so fraudsters can't cheat them with this quite popular method.
But still don't keep too large amounts in e-gold as hackers just love to harrass people with phishing mails, fake clone sites, trojans and other ways to get your account details and get your money. I added new information about keeping your e-gold account safe in E-money section so check it out and earn your money safely and securely.

Well E-gold price has gone insane as it has raised same amount during last month as it did during last 7 months. Last summer it was around 450$ per ounce and in beginning of March it was at 540$ per ounce. Well guess what it is now at 638$ per ounce. This means if I had 10 ounces of e-gold in my account since last summer I would have made profit of almost 2000$ just for having e-gold. Isn't this another reason for buying some gold while dollar value or any other currency value drops against gold value? It's like low risk high return investment to buy e-gold and use it for autosurfing or other earning options.

WiredSurf announced about plans to go private at disclosed number of members. Hmm in my opinion this looks more like a test if they can increase the growth pace with such move than actual plans to go private. This private going thing so far hasn't been good sign for any program in hyip/autosurf business except those with very low ROI. This time I have mixxed feelings about this decision. They recently also announced possible changes to the program regarding daily ROI which will be increased (this is first!) possibly and introducing something like fasttrack payments procedure. Anyway I see a lot of activities on side of administration to improve the program and it is in my opinion positive sign and even this private going plan is put in semicarefully by saying it could happen but that doesn't mean it will ... |
|
This is first payment of 8.8$ from Total Rune which I received within 2 business days after request. Total rune cashout policy allows requesting cash out once a week when min cash out level is reached.
Also I received finally my second payment of 41$ from Reliable-Investment Hyip from other opportunities listing. I received it within 1 day after request but hassle was with requesting it because somehow withdraw page didn't work for me or more exactly submit button on it just didn't do anything. I was contacting support but they took quite a long time to fix it. Now it's finally fixed and I can continue working with this program as my next payout shortly will put me in profits. |
 |
This is another long planned addition to my site and this time it is simply FAQ page or information on frequently asked questions. I will be appending new topics here quite frequently and You may submit your questions to the e-mail listed on bottom of each page on my site.

14dailygold at first glance to terms seems another clone of XXdaily masses but when looked a bit more closely I found heavily modified standard script with quite good daily communication from admin and very smooth navigation. Program is hosted on Dutch server and whois is protected by Privacy guard service. Program is over 2 weeks old and growth so far has been quite good. It is in the early stages and already passed first wave of payments. So far only positive feedback about it can be found in forums. Roi is very high risk but it also means quick ride into profits which at this stage has very good chances. |

CompactSurf host is under DDOS attack and because of this surfing is not possible until problem is resolved. Admin of CompactSurf announced today as surfing holiday. Site is expected to be accessible again by tommorrow. |
|
11th payment from PhoenixSurf for 262$ was paid within 24 hours after expiry. PS is still on top of things and paying promptly. |
|
This is my first payment of 141$ from 14dailyplus which was paid during Easter holidays and was about to become 6th business day but came as a nice surprise egg during non business days :)
Well this payment adds good value to this program and they jumped in top 10 from rank 10 last Friday to rank 5 right after current favorite hotties. Getting higher might be harder for some time now and followers are not far behind but for now it has joined top 5 programs in my listings.
|
|
Quite an interesting new fact about PhoenixSurf - they are now listed by SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) as restricted shareholder after all the legal work and business model reshaping they have done. You can check that listing under this SEC website link. Search for phrase "Phoenixsurf.com" as this is quite large document to read and isn't just about PS but about many companies listed by SEC. If someone doesn't know SEC made quite a influence on autosurf industry few months ago when they got court order against 12dailypro and all autosurf programs suddenly started attempts to follow their regulations and recommendations. After these news it seems that PhoenixSurf is the only program that actually did it and has officially enlisted by SEC. I am not sure about the affect of this but in my opinion this quite an improvement for any autosurf program towards legality of program to be officially listed by SEC if you know what I mean. Other legit programs might want to follow same path now. |

My fourth and largest payment so far from quite fast growing CompactSurf. They recently announced that shortly new payment processor owned by them will be launched. Unlike other cases I don't think this move could mean anything bad because of one very important reason - it will not be exclusive option but just an alternative to existing ones. Members will still have a choise to use e-gold or other preferable options. |
| 15.04.2006 |

FastProfitsClub is quite similiar to 14dailyplus especially since the change to manual surf today. This is one of main reasons I decided to add it because as I already mentioned several times autosurf program with manual surf is more valuable advertisement wise and will bring in more advertisers money for surfers to earn which means longer life for the program and more money earned for involved. Program has quite good reports regarding prompt payments and gives frequent updates via forum announcements and members section news. Payments are made as usual within 7 business days after expiry of units. Program is high risk end with quite quick return of investments. Program is quite new - barely 2 months old so still has potential to grow. |
|
This new addition is in low risk category and is for those looking for good advertising opportunity more than quick profits. Surf-Down-Under has multi level advertiser packages which offer earnings in range of 0.5%-0.8% daily but their advertising offers are wide and will be quite a good surprise for advertisers. This program is still offering paypal as option which nowdays is very rare thing and for those of you who feel paypal is only legit argument this site is for you I guess. I never considered paypal as main factor for program's legitimacy especially since paypal started suspending accounts of every autosurf program unless they proved that they follow SEC regulations. Curently only attribute that makes into any of top 10 lists is it's age which is 4th oldest program in my list at this time. |
|
Another prompt payment from AlientTrust for 105$ yesterday after request. But there are some bad news as well which made me review it's rating and downgrade it to 4 stars until Vince does reverse this decision as well at least I hope he will. Alientrust from now on will only offer withdrawal option through debit card they gonna sell to members. Reason behind this is Alientrust administration doesn't want to risk their money in some 3rd party money processors like e-gold, Alertpay and Uniclear. Well imo this is bull shit but considering their recent problems with hacker who accessed their e-gold and stole some money again (!) this could be reasonable but who knows if that wasn't staged as well. Anyway there are just too many obstacles in the way to get paid now - survey, document submission for verification and now only option for withdrawal is card you first need to purchase and then wait until it comes into your mail. I still consider this one of best autosurf programs but this was just too much of paranoia act. |
|
WiredSurf is still keeping their promises for voting club members to pay within 48 hours after upgrade expiry and this is my 6th payment already. |
|
It seems that I joined Millionettes at a bad moment. Autosurf programs that have huge increase of members base within first few weeks usually face the traffic limit of host they use and need to eventually move to dedicated server. This happened to this program as well with their extrafast growth but appears they have chosen poor quality host for their dedicated server. Is it true or not we'll see in few days but making change for more than a week isn't a good sign for future of program. I downgraded this one to 3 stars which is not recommended temporary until situation clears out. |

Well one of biggest changes to my site has been implemented, tested and added to site under link that replaced Alexa rank which is now sublink for Top 10 section. This addition required quite a lot of background work and changes which took a lot of my time and I didn't do much of updates during last 2 weeks but from now on we will have quite good tool for analysing the situation in the industry and progress of top programs. This is quite unique feature of autosurf monitor you won't find anywhere else. It is customised fully on my ideas and will be flexibly changed and improved over time as I think of new ideas I can add in it.
So what is the major change I have added you may ask. It's multilevel ranking for autosurf programs I am listing in my site. Multilevel because it also features top of the tops which puts all ranks into one combined ranking. Currently I have various 10 top listings but I already plan to add 2-3 more in few days. If you will notice new ranks have feature of comparing the status of particular program with previous week ranks which will give more clear picture if particular program is on the path of progressing in particular field or has regression signs. Most of data will be changed on a weekly basis except popularity and payment information. Popularity rank is quite unique and will represent popularity of each program by measuring amount of unique clicks on each of programs. This will be measured using data over last 7 days. I now plan to analyse frequently situation in ranks in my newspage so watch this column as well when checking ranks page.
Current situation in ranks clearly shows 2 leaders in industry which are PhoenixSurf and AlienTrust and this just proved the fact that my favorite 2 programs are indeed best of best. PhoenixSurf is still growing fast and their recent introduction of new sites for business expansion seem quite professionally made. Leaders are followed by WiredSurf and fast growing CompactSurf which I think will quite soon catch 2 leaders. Quite awkward situation appeared with KnightGoldSurf which paced in from rank 13 last week into rank 7 now but I can only explain this with their recent inactive members cleanup which dropped significantly members base and made their growth as negative figures and now when it again is in positive sign they gained several places. I still don't recommend it because admin is facing problems with paying members and this possibly might be on final stages right now. Don't look at their progress as good sign because week ago they did same drop out of top 10 and now just returned to same position they were 2 weeks ago in my ranks.
Another program that made quite good progress this week is Eyesurf which rushed into top 10 and is most popular program during last 7 days at this time and also has quite high relative growth rate which almost matches CompactSurf pace so I do think this one could be next rising star.
I am quite excited with this new addition and I hope you will like it as well. Feedback is welcome and if you have any ideas what kind of rankings to add don't hesitate to write me to the e-mail listed on bottom of this page. Also if you know of any program that could potentially be in top 10 let me know and I will check it out. I have already several programs in preperation for addition but want to do the usual research first to make sure those are not short term programs or have dirty records. |

10th payment from PhoenixSurf for 123$ was paid within 12 hours after expiry. Nice pace and I instantly can reinvest part of it which reduces risk to a minimum. I just love that fasttrack option. I have seen reports that non fast track payments take up to 6-7 days which means ROI for those is almost 0.55% lower because for fasttrack it is the max possible 1.875% (15% profit within 8 days) but for non fast track option waiting reduces it down to 1.3% (20% profit within 15 days). This means with fasttrack I can get almost 30% within the same period I am waiting for nonfasttrack payment to come. Non fasttrack can only be effective if it is less than 4 days waiting. |

I have spent last 2 weeks working on major upgrade for my site which will involve dynamic multilevel ranking system for all programs I have listed and I plan to finish it by end of this week. It is actually done already but I am doing some testing before putting it live. Changes required some coding added to my pages and if you at some point see some php or mysql errors please let me know as I might miss some bugs.
All these changes now will allow me to increase the amount of sites I can feature on my list and what's more important will allow us to follow their major attributes progress compared to other programs. While doing this testing I already started increasing number of sites featured here and first pack of new sites include 2 european based sites which are French Autosurf4pro and Swedish Millionettes. First one has been around for few months and gained quite good reputation already but second one is fresh creation which already reached over 3000 members base and this is quite impressive start for few weeks old program. Both sites have few unique features I didn't see in other programs which gives good first impressions and in my opinion both have quite good potential. Standard whois and reverse ip checks showed clean record and no privacy protections.
Another addition Total Rune is an old program but recently made reconstruction because of Stormpay scandal and as I watched it has regained partially the momentum it had before february. What makes it even better in my eyes is their recent change into manual surf which I consider as healthy move for any autosurf program because it increases ads value and already during testing of my multilevel ranks I have noticed that top places are taken by manual surf programs which just proves my conclusions about manual surfing. |

I received few mails with concerns about 14dailyplus which is labeled by Investdaddy monitor as "problem". Well I haven't received my payment yet as well but my 7 business days wait is not yet up and will be by end of this week only. Also I noticed voters at InvestDaddy are confused about this rating because they are reporting paid still every day. Program itself recently went over server change and had busy time in script changes as well because it is now another manual surf program and just as I mentioned in earlier news I consider this a very good move for any surf program. Recent news announcement last friday was mentioning that all upgrades that expired before 1st of April are paid now. Taking all of this in account I don't think it stopped paying but just has been busy with the changes and because of this some payments were delayed few days later than usual but are still within 7 business day rule. |

This is 9th payment from PhoenixSurf for 181$. They recently introduced new site with pixel advertising option and seems are expanding their business. |

Sorcex made an announcement today that they will go private once they reach 1750 members. Currently membership is 1250 large so it shouldn't take too much time for this to happen. Well another program chooses to limit their membership for better control. Considering they already have daily limit for deposits and program became quite popular within few weeks I am not surprised with such turn of events. Team doing the trading isn't large and to manage the increasing amount of members and funds they would need to expand as well but this is not what they planned. In my opinion another proof they are doing what they say which is arbitrage trading. My recommendation is to join now even if you still have doubts about it and deposit once you feel comfortable. They also introduced option of withdrawal through bank wire which skips withdrawal fees from e-gold and also shows they don't plan to leave as bank wire is direct connection to owners of program. |

Added Eyesurfer to my listing of autosurf programs and I am quite excited with first impressions from this site. It is using a script I have never seen in any autosurf site before. At first it might be a bit confusing since you don't see the usual layout of your members section but it still is intuitive interface and has all the usual elements. Script is working very smoothly and seems is not involving too much sql queries while loading which makes navigation quite fast. ROI is bordering on medium and high risk leaning more into high risk direction. Payout method is the usual 7 business days after upgrade expiry which is quite popular for most new programs now and I think it is most effective one. Anyway check it out and find out yourself that this one is sticking out of the crowd of surfsites and has good potential to join current top programs in industry. |

As expected by schedule AlientTrust paid me 67$ yesterday after request and now this was payment to a verified member because as I mentioned yesterday I got verified within few days. By the way for those of you who didn't yet rush in and fax those documents it might turn out that you won't need afterall. Appears IRS doesn't need such sensitive info as AT requested like social security number for US citizens and other sensitive data for international members. This was pointed out by one of members in their forum and AT is now confirming this information once more with IRS since they were told otherwise and if it's true they will cancel this mandatory requirement. |

Added some more info on E-gold security issues in payment processors page. Many are very concerned about their funds being safe in E-gold so I shared with my experience and recommendations for making sure funds are as safe as possible. Also if you want to find out how protected you are from phishing e-mails you might want to check out this quiz which will show several phishing and legal e-mail examples and you need to decide which ones are fraud or legit e-mails from original issuers. I admit that I didn't reach 100% score in it. I failed in one of questions but I don't consider it a big problem because my mistake was considering legit e-mail as fraud and I wouldn't click on such link anyway in e-mail that was shown. So try it out and find out how prepared you are against those phishing e-mails.

My Sorcex investment is still in the 20 day lock period but my first referral commission was paid automatically to e-gold today. |
|
Second monthly payment from small forex trainers club owned program Netinvest Autosurf this time for 40$. It is semiprivate now because intended 500 upgraded members were reached few weeks ago but new signups are still allowed as far as I know but offer is different for those joining now. |

AlientTrust verification process is not going smoothly as planned initially because at first they were overhelmed with e-mail submissions and decided to disable this option and leave only fax verifications available. Then fax broke down for 4-5 hours and they had to replace fax machine and added 2 more fax machines to make faxing in easier. Then laptop that held all e-mail verifications was infected with virus and all those e-mail verified members had to resubmit their documents. In any case I am glad I decided not to rush in with verification process in first days and wait and see how this all turns out. Week after announcement of new procedure I faxed my documents to them and just 2 days later I was set to verified member status. Well even though they had some problems communication with members was good and it seems waiting to be verified isn't that long. Now let's see if my today's request will be paid as usual on Fridays. |

This is my first payment from quietly working for almost a year program OnWebSurf which originally had the multi business setup but wasn't promoted as much as other programs because of it's low ROI and longterm model. |
|
My third payment from this European rising star CompactSurf which now offers also business packages including offshore swiss accounts as their new branch of compactnetwork. Their growth rate is quite impressive and so far very prompt payments within 24 hours after request which are limited to just 3 per month. |
|
WiredSurf is keeping their promises for voting club members to pay within 48 hours after upgrade expiry and this is my 5th payment already from this program which is running just bit over 6 weeks. |

Naked Wealth is pretty quick with their referral commission payments. As I compared batch numbers it was just matter of minutes after downline deposits and I received my first payments from them. |

I recently have paid a lot of attention into researching sports arbitrage trading and possible return values it can generate and I must say I am quite impressed with what I found out. It isn't easy and requires some training and time but when you have the resources and knowledge it can be very rewarding income opportunity. Until I can provide you with further details I decided to join and introduce another new non autosurf program Sorcex which makes their returns mainly on sports arbitrage trading. Returns are variable just like in FX-Experts but paid also on weekends since many sports events happen on weekends and also can go up to 3% per day. Average returns are 1.5-2% which is quite high but I can confirm that it is sustainable with arbitrage trading. Best part about this business is that if you place your bets correctly there are no risks of loosing except human error when placing the bets. This program might give you some small insight into this industry and when I will provide more details how to do it yourself you will be somewhat familiar with it already. Min investment here is 25$ and current max limit per day is 300$. They also have daily limit after reaching which further investments are not possible that day and you need to wait for next day to invest again. Currently investing window is open for only 3-4 hours after host date change which happens approx at 10pm GMT. If you put your mouse pointer over that red triangle in right bottom corner it will show GMT time. As I understand this is done mostly to control the cashflow incoming each day and manage their funds in bookmaker accounts which in my opinion proves that they are doing legit business unlike other programs which have no daily limits and just take whatever is deposited to them. Also I noticed their members section doesn't work correctly in some version of browsers so if you find blank page in front of you after login try to use different browser or update browser version you are using. |

My 8th payment from PhoenixSurf for 335$ as usual paid within 24 hours because of fasttrack option. |

Ozsurf admin Brad decided to close his program and refund everyone all the money he has invested from members funds. If he does what he says it will be an unusual refund procedure where even those in profit will receive their upgrades back. Quite sad to see good program close but it seems recent hacker attacks on his program and damage done by Stormpay was unrecoverable. Or may be it's the only way to get away from hacker who is stalking this program. Either way this one was quite good program.

For those of you who liked the ride on GoldenRocks HYIP I found a new program Naked Wealth which is quite similiar and offers variable return in range of 15-30% for 15 days for min investment of 25$ and 7-10$ for min 10$ plan. Their latest biweekly cycle had reports of nice 23% return on payments received by members. There is no membership site for which you need to sign up and login but just information site that is same approach as Goldenrocks had. Deposits are made directly to their e-gold accounts which are seperate for each plan. When making a payment you can put e-gold account for referrer and your own e-mail in memo field. If you want to get your share of referral commission then you have to put my e-gold number in memo field while making a deposit. After that contact me as explained in this page. |

Auto-paid.com bites the dust just week after creation. Well enough is enough. Such high risk programs are not worth even the time spent on them let alone donations made to them. This program proved the fact of daily compounding killer which I was aware of but never learned to see in practice since I never joined such high risk programs before. Fact is if program offers withdrawal daily without any limits it is pure ponzi and will only live until ratio of withdrawn amounts are less than 70-80% of deposited amounts. I thought if you follow the rule of getting in early you can make some profits while the program lasts but I was wrong. In fact auto-paid.com would last some days longer if not for some large investments that were made into it. Withdrawaks on those sucked in all the previous deposits and ratio went from 30-40% into 70% just in one day. From now on I won't join and list any program that offers daily withdraw option without any limits. And I recommend you avoid such shortlife programs as well as it seems making profits in such is not possible because of short time it exists.

Looks like EMO payment processor which was potentially quite good alternative some time ago is now officially dead and not returning. Court order has been issued to transfer their assets to a receiver who will initiate refund process for account owners. Here is a link to scanned copy of court order in this matter. |

My second payment from Surfice was paid within 24 hours after request that is allowed few days in beginning of each month. This program has surprisingly survived both Stormpay and EMO crash. Stormpay they added just 2 weeks before problems with Stormpay started and EMO was their choise after Stormpay crash but also not for long time so affects seem quite small if any. |

Another month has passed and to sum it up it wasn't yet good and stable as I was hoping it to be because several very good programs that were affected by Stormpay continued to have problems and either reorganised or restarted which anyway did mean loosing previous investments. There were few good newcomers to fill the space that was left by 12dailypro but still after the incident trust in autosurfing has faded because most even trusted programs appeared to be fooling most members around with the claims of legit business. And now this industry is treated almost in same way as HYIP which means most people just don't care about advertising part of autosurfing. Well I still think it has future and just needs some reshaping like it is tried by some. For internet business bringing traffic to your website, product or whatever you want to promote is like putting a billboard on central street of some big city. Using it correctly is what is required for health of autosurfing business as well. Value of ads increasing should bring in more advertisers money which would ensure more audience coming and so on. I still consider best model of autosurf program should be manual surf (yes manual not autosurf) with limited amount of credits earned by viewing other sites but majority of advertising credits is bought when upgrading. Currently there are two programs that almost reached optimal paid to surf model in my eyes but still lacking one of components I mentioned. Alientrust is much closer to it because it is manual and credits can be obtained only by purchasing upgrades and amount of credits depends on level of upgrade which ensures interest of advertisers to invest more to advertise their sites. Another program which is close to that model is PhoenixSurf currently top rated program in my list which only lacks the credit addition depending on upgrade level. This is serious flaw for it as this reduces interest of advertisers to put in more money because it doesn't matter how much you upgrade it doesn't affect amount of credits you get but only the payment you will receive. Well good news is that they already consider this option added.
In any case March was much better month compared to February and in my opinion recovery process is almost over and industry should become more stable during April and more potentially good programs should come out of hordes of new programs created each day during next few weeks. Meanwhile I will continue to look into other online earning opportunities besides autosurfing and provide you with reviews on those. Currently I am evaluating 2 options which involve more effort and knowledge than just starting the autosurf script for daily slide show but at least in this case you will not be depending on those behind autosurf or hyip programs and their skill to sustain those ROI they offer. During next few weeks I will give more details about both of those industries and possibly prepare some guide on how to start with those once I have learned my own way into them. |

Another payment I received yesterday from PhoenixSurf for 505$. Program is just exploding with the growth which you can notice in my yesterdays review. I will be adding detailed due diligence report on their program shortly so you can see more clear picture why I have chosen this program as top surfsite in my list and trusted with highest upgrade level in it. |
|
And again by schedule AlientTrust paid me 62$ yesterday after request even though I haven't yet verified with them but I consider to do it next week. I know this company is real and will be adding my own detailed due diligence report on it. |
|
Requested my second instant payment from Auto-Paid and as expected received
payment of 2.4$ instantly. As I already added to main list comments I recommend watching their drawdown percentage. I expect that problems with payments could start when it comes close to 70%. Don't forget that this is very high risk program and I don't expect it to last longer than 30-40 days. |
