Have your say with what you want to a successful program Admin!! Here's your chance, don't miss it

Welcome back Surf-o-Matic SOM Admin Randy has posted on the MMG thread.

Well time is winding down and many are asking what is next? Surf-o-Matic.com has been in service for more then a full year. We started out as a high ROI site. That did not work so we took the summer to recoup and revamp the plans and start new plans. NO ONE lost.

Time continued and surfs lost steam However, our members stuck with us. Since last summer even interest in the paying sites has died and even the forums show very few surf sites still around and no new ones coming out. Surf-o-Matic only has 17 active members meaning of our 267 members only 17 have an active upgrade. Of the 17 members all but about 5 upgrades will end within a few days. Surf-O-Matic only has 3 members who are not yet in profit but will be within a very short time.

This leaves me asking the questions of our members.

Whats Next?

I would love to continue to serve our members, But surf sites is not a viable option, Just not enough members left in the surf industry.

Hyips are still booming and several start every day.
So since It is ultimately the members who will be the deciding factor I would like to know what YOU as a member would like to see happen from here? I would love nothing more then to hear form all members current, Past and even possible future members.

Your welcome to use the contact form on the site and even discuss in the MMG forum as I will be checking that as well.

Time to get vocal say something. Ok? Not everyday you get a chance to spread some light touched with experiences. A bit of history of SOM can be gleaned from reading the MMG thread, here's a link for easy access. It is time for a change so give it some thought and contact Randy via the support link or post in the forum. Invoking member interest and a feasible site, let's see what we can come up with. Also Randy earns external income, so let's start asking questions :) Together we might be able to come up with a realist workable site.

Surf-O-Matic - Site back up and paying!!

Welcome back Surf-o-Matic :)  Randy is a casual admin, but he returns regardless.  Site came back up today and we were paid our pendings as well.  So back into surfing and earning again.  As I thought he forgot to pay the bill lol  Ah well it happens.  Great little surf site this one, under the radar and plenty of room for growth. No stress site and sometimes we have to wait for payment as he doesn't have a time restriction on that and also seems he is producing income from outside sources.  Will be upgrading again tomorrow with some of my earnings. So returned SOM to paying status.

Update 7 April: Upgrade button is disabled. Waiting to hear from Admin regarding the future of SOM.  Makes you wonder what he has in mind.  Let everyone earn until no upgrades left? Then start something else?  Who knows, no doubt in time we shall see.

Surf-O-Matic - free domain?? Stay tuned

Seems out quiet admin forgot to pay for his hosting. The site dropped off during the night and now is a parked domain (expired) One of the members has emailed the admin, so we shall wait and see what transpires. The site has approximately 26 upgraded members and we have been enjoying some good surfing earnings. Actually seeing HYIPs are the trend these days, he might come back with a HYIP site :) I am not saying he has gone anywhere, probably just an oversite as Randy is a casual admin busy earning elsewhere to pay SOM members. Here's hopeing we will be back up and running soon.

Surf-O-Matic - quiet but a gem

Can you believe it? Well Surf-O-Matic has 26 active members, no big out there type of site, but it just keeps plugging along. Not much to say here but I will quote what RandyM the admin said a week or so ago. He's not the forum poster like many other admins. I was paid yesterday and now in profit, as I would say most of his members are.

"Sorry for no updates as you all know i have never been an active communicator that is my down fall, All payments are paid. Most of you know that there was some issues with SP in their funding and withdraws. Hence you see payments form LR and not from SP.As far as member count growing more That is not a priority for me, My priority is making money to pay you all.
Because i have real investments this is why there is no time frame for payments in the terms. For those looking on and wondering why o join or not you can ask our dedicated members that payments always get made.
That is the difference in Surf-o-matic and other sites is that we come through.
RandyM"

Saturday just disappeared!!

Days just roll into daze :)  Been having a quiet uneventful day, which is great. I wonder how long it will last? ha
Surf-O-Matic paid so I have moved them back to paying.  RandyM is casual, but pays. However Margaret from MyMarketShares still is a no show either way.  Payment or contact, so not looking good.  Ouch!! this one stings!.But site is still up and I have everything all crossed, if that helps.
GoldnuggetInvest well as most know under restructure.  It has mostly been complete, well by my account has been, however I won't be putting it as paying until I get paid, which should be towards the end of next month. sigh. But it is a wait and see situation which we are all used to in this game.

What's hot?  Currently GouldsInvest has far exceeded my expectations. Still paying and admin "Macro" lol private joke, Marco is doing his bit to keep the site going.  User participation is always the key.
The instant surf FastCashSurf is growing steadily, with a reasonable return plan, could be a good money spinner. To date paid instantly on all upgrades and surf days.

There are some new promising looking sites popping up, but tend for some to look like feeder sites.  Looking at increasing levels in a couple of my stable sites NanoMoneyCorp and Panamoney.

Off to enjoy the day.  Laters.

A few ends to clear up here.  I have moved MyMarketShares to on hold, I have a pending since last week and this week no earnings posted, also Margaret has been too quiet for comfort.  Also S-O-M has been too quiet, pending payments, which aren't too old yet, but others have older and no response anywhere from admin.  I can always change the status back, ok. My thoughts are to watch some bigger programs as well, as they may have been piggybacking on GNI, as maybe MyMarketShares and S-O-M, who really knows in this game, with the payments from GNI non-existent for awhile at least, well momentum could bring some bigger older programs unstuck.  I am not referring to NanoMoneyCorp or Panamoney as they are much older than GNI.  But definitely time to be cautious regarding some of those "biggies".
I did join an instant surf FastCashSurf, lol  well it could work out ok, as is only brand new and I don't think I have ever seen an 8% for 15 days instant pay site before.  Definately a GnD script, but take it or leave it.  I decided to get in and see where this one goes as I consider it a more stable plan than 10% for 13 days.  I would really wish one day to have an LR only instant site.  Less issues with PP's. sigh.  Fingers crossed this one gets some support and the admin just works in the background to keep the program running smoothly.
HighYeildInvestment Funds (HYIFunds) is just rolling along. I am still autocompounding.
GouldsInvest - well into day 37 and looking stable still, remember though it's member participation that keeps this one going, so with many of us doing daily upgrades, it is working.  Admin is doing the right thing by members.
Nearly the weekend here, yahoo

What happened to the weekend??

Time really does run away from you, agree?  Well I am trying to update here daily, well mostly lol  Apart from mowing acres of grass from recent rain, and doing my usual 5 shifts at work a week there isn't much time in a day left.  The heat has been horrendous up in the late 30'sC.  Quite a few liquids consumed :)  Also probability of a heating problem in my laptop isn't helping.  My dream currently is to earn enough to buy a new one!  Tall order, not really depends on some decisions I make. lol   Ooops better get cracking with some news!

GNI - well as I said the other day, quite a number of changes, so it's a wait and see.  I wouldn't be putting any new money in until things are running much smoother, and all the changes are effected.  Still not exactly sure on how it will all work, but checking your accounts should give us the idea.

Panamoney continues to perform extremely well and has so for me for 18 months.  No signs of anything, and I am pretty sure they are trading.  Of course just like anything else, play it responsibly. 
NanoMoneyCorp I am actually getting quite comfortable there.  Another gem lost in time. No big HYIP but steady as she goes.
Surf-O-Matic - such a quiet program with an admin who trades.  Spends his time making money not hyiping threads or updating his website lol  Only 25 active members and running 206 days.  This is my favorite surf site.
Wondering why I am not in some of those flash surf sites???  Hmmm  well I am being cautious where I put my money these days.  Yes I play here and there, but also look for longer term stable plans as well.  Maybe get out and play with some profits when I find a site I like :)  ssshhhh  currently looking.
Till tomorrow, enjoy ya day.  Smiles are infectious ya know!

 I had better get back to work as my laptop is not the best so working somewhat from work today.  

Quick wrap up >>> hmm got typers cramp. :)

For most people it is a busy time of year.  Is for me to, lol so many things to do before the "big day".  So just an update as to what is happening in my neck of the woods. My paying list is getting shorter, well very short.  Now certainly isn't the time to be throwing money into anything.  Plenty of two-bit new programs, game cyclers, but I wouldn't be moving anywhere currently.  Would have to be outta this world to get me overly excited currently.  Shame as I like to have some fun.  Well let's look at the events over the last few weeks down to today. Good and not so good.

RichAliens - when AP was taken out I virtually walked then as all I had in there was Alertpay.  Now the admin tried to help by giving those members not in profit but only had AP upgrades their upgrade in LR and placed in the 14 day plan.  Well 20th I believe it should have been payout time for those upgrades, but he just couldn't pull it off.  To me regardless of whom he is or was in previous programs, well he did a darn good job.  Upgrades and payments are disabled, but he is trying to work on a solution.  To me the equation is very simple. The best thing that can be done with a hyip is when the dollars in are less than the dollars out - close. End of the round.  Open fresh again when the marketplace is better.  That is how hyip's were, now members demand refunds.  It is hard to play a fair game in this climate.  For me?  Kudos to the admin, he ran a fair game.

Rollover-Ads - Even though I am forever hopefull, now 4 days pendings plus todays only just withdrawn, sure doesn't look good.  No word from the admin yet.  But in from day 1 and still just short of 80% of initial back, yes a "ouch' one for me. With the upcoming holiday season, unless the admin can really pull something out of the hat, well I expect the worst here. Edit: a few hours from posting this: a payment was received and others also posting payments on the thread, so still in there with hope.

MyMarketShares - Gotta hand it to Margaret (the admin) she is trying her best.  Times are tough, and not as many members or potential members these days, but one thing I feel is a major downfall in these revenue share programs and that is the huge referral commissions paid week after week.  Okay the dollars are down as only internal upgrades, but they are mandatory (50%) which gives more life to the program, but I believe the 15% referral commissions should only be paid when fresh money comes in, not on rollovers. JMO of course, and I know I would get shouted down by the referral hounds, but I can state my opinion. There!!  So currently MMS is still paying, hopefully this is just a hump in the road.

GoldNuggestInvest (GNI) - still looking great and performing well.
PanaMoney - going great guns still. No signs of slowing (Note: not many of trading days holidays over the break, remembering you don't earn on those no trade days)
Surf-O-Matic (SOM) - Amazing, still a quiet achiever, could really be the one to take off early next year. Even got paid today, but will give the admin a break over Christmas lol
HYIFund - Well only new to me, but the thread shows members being paid each day.  No huge roi, but from .5 to 3% ain't bad.  You never get your upgrade back, but you earn "forever" (the time the program runs) on your upgrade.  I am compounding for a week, then I intend to mount a sum and cashout.  :)  Great to just set on autocompound over the break and see how things pan out.


So much for a quick wrap up on things lol  wrote a novel. rofl  cheers!!

Bit of a weekend update :)

RichAliens I performing brilliantly or should I say "outa this world". Heaps of fun and paying and paying. I now have upgrades running in the daily plan, so the 12 days won't feel so long :)  Survived round one now into round two. Payments are at the speed of light, and the admin is very responsive.

Surf-o-Matic Only a relative new member, been there a couple of weeks and the admin, RandyM seemes very committed to his site and members.  Not online much but is producing outside income for the site, so that in itself is a good thing. He blew me away by sending cash to member's payment processors as an early Christmas present saying thanks to his members for staying with him.  I was gifted as well and I only joined recently, but have been watching for awhile.  He had some problems in the beginning but revamped the system and is looking good. Currently only a small band of members, but we are being well looked after.

LibertyReserveExpress It has been hot and cold. Alertpay definately has put a downer on the site as the receival fees make a dent in the upgrade to start with, then the charge backs, but no excuse. The members decide what is best for them, whether to play or not, I guess they have made their decision.  I was paid some but not others, a hit and miss affair, currently am daily surfing out an upgrade but yet to be instantly paid on it, hopefully I will be paid at least on expiry.

PayItForwardTraffic Seems to be some movement in the back office.  Not sure what is happening here other than it will now become a real revenueshare percentage and paid monthly. As usual, time will tell.

Time is flying and we are rolling fast into Christmas.  Busy times, but also some gems out there if you still want to be in a good position come 2010.

Surf-O-Matic - ssshhhhh "quiet achiever in action"

Shhhhh quiet achiever. Joined a couple of weeks back, not often you find a little something hidden. Great plans, no big hyip, plain old surf and earn, and a no surf it that's what ya like. :) Now is a great time to join and get settled in your seat. Also just received a member email today, looking good. With me? Definately worth a look.
