People String is a monetary social network and web portal
which shares 70% of all ad revenue with active users. They are the
Editors Choice for the Best Free Paying Social Network. It’s
free to join and has all the function of a traditional social network along with their patent pending Insta Portal feature.
People String compensates both free and premium members, which they
call Entrepreneurs. There are 5 ways to earn money at no cost to the
users, and by using the site each day one can easily be able to make a
few dollars a month. No big deal, right? Well, this is where it gets
interesting. If you refer someone and they sign up for a free account
you get 10% of anything they earn. So, if they earn a buck in the
month you get 10 cents. Again no big deal. If they sign up people and
so on, on levels 2 through 6 you get 3% on each level. A HUGE deal.
For those who upgrade to Entrepreneur Memberships ($300 one time) the
earnings increase to 20% on direct referrals and 6% on levels 2-6.
It’s important to understand the terminology on People String and to
take the time to train yourself. If you don’t you’ll be one that says
it doesn’t work and only makes a few cents. Their
events calendar
has plenty of great training available and we encourage users to take
the time to learn all they can to maximize their earnings.
The 5 ways to earn money with People String are.
- People Points – Are earned based upon your usage
and referrals to People String. The points are used to determine how to
share advertising revenue with the users. The end of each month the
counter resets. People String distributes 70% of its revenue to the
users on a periodic basis as revenue is received. Typically every 4-6
weeks. The more you use it the more you make!
- People Dollars – Sections of the site offer People
Dollars and are marked accordingly. Take survey’s, demo products, play
games, visit an advertisers site, etc. 100 People Dollars = $1 USD. Upon
earning them they are converted and immediately shown in your Current
Earnings and Transaction Details pages.
- Mailbox Cashbox – Take surveys and Opt in to
receiving postal mail ads and receive cash for doing so.- Only good for
those in the US & Canada at present
- People Shopping – Shop at any of the participating stores and receive rebates from the merchants into your account.
- People Products – Is a set of electronic products
being offered to businesses-this is currently in beta testing. There is
a one time $300 lifetime payment required to participate in this
portion. When it is officially launched there will be an ongoing
monthly fee to participate in this portion of the site.
The best way to make money with People String is to not only invite
all your friends but you need to log into the site everyday and make
sure and earn a few People Points and use the site. The more the site
is used the more ads display the more money can be made.
People String starts out agonizingly slow for everyone. The only
thing you can do wrong is give up. If you join as a free member and
only invite others to be free users, don’t expect to make much for at
least the first 6 months of daily usage. You will need to get
approximately 1000 people in your down string before you will start to
see much of any compensation from the ad sharing portion. If you are an
Entrepreneur and recruiting others to be Entrepreneurs you will start
to realize returns much quicker.
Entrepreneur membership is a one time upgrade investment of $300 and
comes with enhanced marketing tools. For those who can’t afford the
hefty entrance fee, you can still make a decent income as a free user
and we’d encourage you to bring in free users until you have several
hundred in your down string at which point upgrading becomes reasonable.
From want we have experienced to date, user in North America seem to
get larger Ad revenue shares each month. We can only guess that this is
due to a larger number of advertisers in the US & Canada. Thus if
you do not live in North America, we would encourage you to focus your
recruiting efforts there to maximize your income. Note any new member
regardless of where they are is good though.
People String only pays free users once a month and it isn’t on
consistent date, which is frustrating to most. It seems to happen
between the first and second week of each month. Entrepreneurs get paid
twice a month. You must have a minimum balance of $25 before they will
send you money using Alertpay. If you are in the US you can also
select direct deposit to avoid Alerpay’s fees.
The only glaring negative we found is People Strings support is super
slow to non-existent. In the few inquiries we’ve sent them we either
never got a response or it took days. You most likely will have better
luck using the forums on the site.
People String is based in NJ and went public in Jan 2011. Their ticker symbol is
PLPE and you can see all there financials on the
SEC website.

Affiliate Compensation:
Up to 70% of the revenues earned by PeopleString are distributed to
its members. The percentage of earnings received by an individual varies
monthly and is determined by both their status as a free or
Entrepreneur member and the user’s usage of the site as compared to all
other users. When money is earned, the transactions will appear in the
back office of the individual user and be credited to current earnings.
Once the current earnings reach $25.00, payments are made to free users
once a month and paid users twice a month. Users must complete the
appropriate tax forms (w-8 or w-9) and select a payment method in order
to receive payment.
Free users receive a 10% referral commission on earnings of anyone
they referred directly and 3% on levels 2-6. Entrepreneur members
receive 20% on direct referrals and 6% on levels 2-6
Example Earnings:
Example 1: Each user earns a very conservative $1/mo in advertising
revenue and each user refers 6 free users. This shows what you would
earn if you were a free user and what you’d earn if you were an
Entrepreneur.

Recommendation:
People String is a solid company and one of the older monetary social
networks. Since it’s free we think everyone should join. To make
money as a free user though, you and your down string will need to use
the site regularly to make an income. Many give up because it starts
out amazingly slow. You have to have patients if you want to build it
as a free user. Plan on it taking months and thousands of people before
you will make any reasonable money from the ad sharing. The best part,
it’s free to join and make money so even those on a tight budget can do
it.
For those who are serious, the Entrepreneur membership is the way to
go. Know if you go Entrepreneur you’ll need to refer other
Entrepreneurs or your income will start very small just as it does for
the free users.

- The company is public PLPE in the USA
- Registered with the SEC SEC Filings

Cons:
- Starts out very slow. Most users won’t make much for the a long
time, unless they have a very large preexisting network to draw from.
- Customer Support is virtually non-existent. They are super slow to respond or don’t respond to inquiries at all.
- The terminology is at first a bit confusing to most. Make sure and read their FAQ or our in-depth review to understand how to make money with People String.
- Much harder to earn money for those outside North America
Other Factors:
- Must be 18+ years old
- It is a multi-tiered (MLM) opportunity
- Usage based compensation. To make money with People String you will
need to be patient as you refer others and most importantly you and
your down-line will need to use the site regularly.
- Since the site pays it’s users based on sharing the advertising
revenue it works best for those in the USA, Canada, & Australia at
this time. If you live outside these areas it still works, however
there are less ads in other areas. Therefore if you are outside North
America, we recommend focusing on bringing in referrals in these areas.
