Pro Bux Review
ProBux Descriptions:
A "New" Paid-To-Click (PTC) website created and registered July 17, 2004 and will expire July 17, 2019. This website is owned by ProBux Ltd. operating in Brazil.
Very familiar to every PTC users especially if you are a ClixSense user (because it is usually advertised to a big PTC site), this website proved its user that they are paying since they were launched. But the question here is, "how long will it takes to spend from their pockets"?
ProBux or probux.com is also a very controversial pay to click site. External reviews also suspected this site as the same owner as OnBux which is a scam site by checking every corner of their script, pages, queries, locations you can see that this was really very similar (not saying they really are).
Well, who cares? The users? I think no.
"It pays good and on time, as its payment proofs says". Registered users doesn't really care about this 'coz they recieved real cash direct to their processors.
If the "smart guesses" are true ----
Who have the right to judge a good comeback? Let those unmindful users test the site and if ProBux fail again (if its really true hat they really are the maker of OnBux), then we can make an action to those. But or now, we will first put this up to the watch list.
Remember they are "Paying" BUT they are a "Bux" site. And Bux sites usually dies or fail in time, or if not, they go scamming.

Bad Things About TheBux
High Paying
Based on our review, this ptc pays from $0.055 and more. It maybe a fast earning but be reminded that high paying ptc websites don't last long. It may pay you enough for a week, a month, but it will stop if it run out of fundings.
Using nTen PTC Script
It is an innovative ptc script mostly used by todays newcomers. Although innovative, nTen Script is known for its "high failing rate".
A Bux Site
Bux sites mostly grows very fast and fail at the end fast too. Some called them a "fad". They are the ones who just come fast and go leaving at the same rate
3 Reason They Dont Buy From You
We’re all sales people. Believe that. Whether a consumer buys directly from your site or not – you’re selling. If you’re not, you’re not making any damn money. Period.
That’ll probably catch some flak from the “do what you love and the money will follow” crowd. But hey – that’s life.
There are only 3 reasons someone might not buy from you. It’s that simple. Ready for it?
Reason #1 – They’re Truly Not Interested
This is a simple matter of quality lead gen. Online this is easily overcome with all the targeting options we have on Facebook, PPC, and Real Time Bidding. If you’re not targeting – you’re wasting your time, obviously.
Get a handle on who your target market is. Understand the demographics. Are the people that are interested in the product you’re promoting men or women? Are they just getting started or are they experienced?
As long as you’ve got a handle on these things you shouldn’t have a problem advertising to these people.
Reason #2 – They Don’t Have The Money
Again this is corrected by doing quality lead gen and understanding demographics. Why advertise to a group of people that don’t have any money?
Side note – this kills me specifically in the “make money online” niche.
You can sell to these people and they’ll buy at the lower price points. But they’re often borrowing from Peter to pay Paul. That’s not an ideal customer. The lifetime value is low and you’ll have high refund rates. But I digress.
Reason #3 – They Don’t Trust You
This is the tough one. Especially when you’re an affiliate. Who want’s to buy something from a random site on the Internet? People buy when they feel a reasonable sense of trust that:
1 – The vendor is for real (meaning they won’t get ripped off)
2 – The product will help fix their problem
2 – The product will help fix their problem
There are a couple “tools” an affiliate can use to overcome these things.
1 – Free Trials – Yes, there have been some issues with free trials in the direct response space in recent years. But you don’t have to promote “those” kinds of offers. Free trials work ESPECIALLY well with software products.
2 – Testimonials – Social proof is such a huge motivating factor. If it works for them, it’ll work for me mentality is a real thing.
3 – Product Videos – Do a video of you using the product! This goes a long way in building trust. They’ll see that you didn’t get ripped off and the product helped (or didn’t help) you with the problem. Yes this means you’ll actually have to buy the product you’re going to promote. Imagine that.
Conclusion
Keep these 3 things in mind when you promote products. If you address these on every promotion you’ll presell your product better every time. Better sales = bigger commission checks!
