I guess a paid-to-post forum can be considered a real job or business model. However, its success depends on various factors such as the quality of contents being posted, user engagements, and the forum ability to attract advertisers and sponsors.

Monetizing through paid memberships, advertisements, or partnerships can make it a viable business, but it must provide value to it's users to ensure sustainability of the forum.
 
Paid-to-post forum websites come and go. There are only a few paid-to-post forum websites that have stood the test of time. So, in my humble opinion, making it only your real job may not help you achieve your goals. It is better to have other sources of income, especially during this trying time.
 
For the owner, yes. For staff members, maybe. For end users? No way.

Paid-to-post forum is more or less an avenue for socializing and learning while earning a little extra as incentive, not really an avenue to grow wealth.

I've been on a couple ptp sites where I struggled to make the withdrawal threshold before taking a walk. For the ones that I'm still active on, I visit to learn and have passionate discussions without really checking if the money us racking up.

Make money the motivation for joining ptp sites and one will be frustrated. I've been there, done that.
 
I will say that it depends on your role involved there. If you are the owner or Admin, it is actually a real job. You are putting your time and effort in designing, planning strategies to run it in a profitable way. Even staff members like moderator can be considered as a job as it comes with some professional obligations and responsibilities. Not for end users. We have no professional obligations here. We are more of community participants.
 
Yeah, i think when they start a paid to post forum and when they develop it they are considering a good profit from it so they really think that its a good way of making money and i think they will consider it as a real business and that is why they invest a lots of money on it.

That's very interesting to know. I have heard of people who are totally into online earnings and have left their offline job to pursue a full time earnings online. Most of them rely on skilled jobs and freelancing. They use PTP forums to fill in the space. It's unbelievable for me to see that you will able to make a decent living with only paid to post forums. How many paid to post forums you are a part of? You must be very active on all of them.

You are very right, there have been lots of paid to post forum which have crashed due to one reason or the other especially ones that couldn't stand the test of time and crashed in their early years , one of the major problem forums face is reduced advertisement on their forums as most of them complained.
 
If you want to build a forum site to turn it into a real business, of course you have to prioritize content that is quite long, so that sponsors will write their articles like other content. Forum site owners must also be able to choose quality content. Meanwhile, monetization through paid membership must be adjusted to the reward per post, thus allowing users to return on investment with a predetermined number of posts.

I am surprised to know that one can actually rely on paid go post forums as the main source of earnings. It does not provide a job security or consistency of payment. Things have become tougher in the current times with few good paid to post forums getting shut down or reducing their pay rates. Some have stopped paid posting.

With the current pay it cannot and should not. Even when the pay was way higher than this i was not enough to sort out every bill.

It's not really the pay rate that matters what matters the most is the strategy you use to van combine up to 5 forums make 25 post per day and you will see that your earning will be more than what you expected at the end of the month though the rate matters alot

You are right , on several occasions, I have made calculations concerning this since I belong to different paid to post sites , but I haven't still been able to work towards that because I am not always free.

Yes that's true, but even with a higher pay rate, working on a paid to post site as you only source of income would still not be enough.

You need to be committed and work very hard if you want to be earning more so I think you need to have your own time table to work and always focus on quality post for the safety of your account
