What Is Traffic Monsoon? Maybe Just A Light Drizzle

Can someone tell me what the fascination is of “making it rain” at gentlemen's club? I work hard for my money! I don't see how throwing all that money on half naked women mimicking a rain shower to make other guys feel small about their paper situation benefits me. Seems to me the only people benefiting are the dancers. But that's none of my business though.

In any event speaking of weather phenomenon apparently there is one on the web that Charles Scoville, the owner of Traffic Monsoon is making happen. Apparently he created a program that is supposed to “drive a torrent of traffic” to your websites and “create DAILY cash revenues“.

Charles Scoville is well know in the advertising industry. One of his successful websites is AdHitProfits.

What Exactly Is Traffic Monsoon?

“TrafficMonsoon.com is a specialized advertising and revenue sharing company that allows international participation of individuals and groups. Our services provide high quality advertising targeted for people seeking for a way to earn money online along with complete account privacy, top level online security, efficient account management, and a dedicated support team” (source: trafficmonsoon.com)

Charles Cloville

Mr. Scoville continues and explains to you that his company's traffic generation is capable of sending thousands of visitors to your website(s). There is a revenue sharing plan which provides all members with long term benefits.

I found it remarkable that there is NO sales page or video full of hype and the BS you usually find with MMO programs. A well designed and fully functioning website provides you with all the information you need.

How Does Traffic Monsoon (TM) Work?

The core of Traffic Monsoon is a system that sends your website through multiple other advertising websites. That ensures your offers are seen by a large audience.

Of course, you understand that there is no such thing as “getting money for doing nothing”! Even winning the lottery or cashing out playing the slots in a casino, requires some action of you. Go to a lottery outlet and buy a ticket, or pushing a button on a slot machine 5.000 times and hope you will win.

TM requires you to click on a certain number of ads within a 24-hour period for the system to work.
There are 4 ways for you to make money:

1) Clicking on Ads

You earn by clicking on other member's offers and review them for at least 24 seconds. The pay is either ONE or TWO cents per page view.

Although the amount of money you earn is minimal, you need to consider that you can do this with very little effort. It takes less than 15 minutes per day.

2) Use Traffic Monsoon's Traffic Services

It is a well know fact that websites need traffic to generate leads which results in more sales. Traffic Monsoon provides several services to reach your target audience. You will only get traffic from people that are looking for ways to make money online.

You can see that a relative small investment can send targeted traffic to your site. This can help you to “build your list” and may generate more income for your business.

3) Make Money Through Revenue Sharing

This is were you can make “real” money. You need to do 2 things.

  1. First, you need to purchase advertising services. Each adpack costs $50 (one sharing position), which will give you 1,000 targeted visitors to your website PLUS 20 clicks on your banner ads.
  2. Second, you will have to qualify for sharing revenues by clicking a minimum of 10 ads within every 24 hour period.

When members purchase adpacks, all revenues will be shared with members that have an active sharing position. As you click through a minimum of 10 ads daily, you'll share in revenues up to $55 on each sharing position.

That's all? Just 5 bucks? Yea, but consider this before you get too riled up:

You do get a 10% interest on your investment of just $50. Currently, the interest rate on a savings account is almost NIL. If you would get 10% interest from your bank, it would take a whole year to make $5.

Over 80,000 members are clicking on advertisements at least 10 times per day and it takes maybe 2 to 3 days until your revenue sharing reaches $55. You can figure out what kind of interest rate that really amounts to.

4) Make Money Through Referrals

It is not what you may think. Traffic Monsoon is not an MLM or Pyramid scheme. There is no up- or down line to build and there are NO different levels.

It's quite simple. If someone becomes a member through on of your websites or advertisements, you will receive a 10% commission of EVERY purchase the member makes.

How Do You Get Paid With Traffic Monsoon?

As you click on ads to qualify for the revenue sharing program, so do all the other members. Purchases are being made throughout the day and the moneys you earn are computed on an hourly basis.

So you can check several times a day how you are doing. All earned moneys will be credited to your account within 24 hours. Payments are made to PayPal, Payza, and Solid Trust Pay.

At first, the minimum amount you can withdraw is $2.00, then it increases in increments of 2 bucks until you reach $10. From thereon out, your minimum withdrawal amount will be $10.

And last, but not least, if you purchased targeted traffic, you may see an increase in revenue from whatever you happen to be promoting.

The Cons of Traffic Monsoon

When I first started to do my Traffic Monsoon Review I must admit it all sounded very sweet to me. I didn't really see a potential for a lot of bad points. But you know how I do. I dug a little deeper and started to see some things that concern me. This isn't unique to to Traffic Monsoon, damn near every company has complaints to consider. With that said, what should you worry about with Traffic Monsoon?

Low income potential?

If you don't have any money to invest the only way to really make money with this is by clicking on ads and that can take forever to see any REAL money if at all. You're guaranteed to make money but it's going to take a while and for that type of patience you might as well build a business where the potential to earn some real money will be far greater in time.

Assorted Past

The owner Charles has kind of a sketchy past. Apparently Charles Cloville ran several PTC (Pay To Click) sites that ran into trouble. Infinitibux, the Mother ship of Powerfulbux, Foreverbux and BuxUnleashed went insolvent and stopped payments to many of it's members.

Charles then started a new PTC site, Adhitprofits with a different business model. Not making any profit the first 2 years, Charles created yet another site, Traffic Monsoon, which makes money not only for itself, but also enables Charles to maintain Adhitprofits AND making debt payments accrued in the past.

So Charles may have learned from his mistakes in the past since both sites are functioning for 4 and 2 years respectively. But I can't be sure he'll pull the same crap he did with InfinitiBux. It's an inherent risk you'll need to take.

Smells Ponzi'ish

Although the “returns” on the shares are reasonable, the whole set up of this reminds me of an HYIP or a ponzi scheme and given Charles history with other programs that were ran into the ground using the same structure, I don't know how sustainable this thing will be. Only the future can tell, but again it's something that concerns me. The whole return aspect of his business just brings back bad memories of HYIP programs I tried in my early career. They did pay but eventually they fell apart and if you came in late you lost. So this sort of feels like that to me. But I could be wrong.

Limited Traffic

The traffic that you get from Traffic Monsoon is really targeted at people that are looking to make money. It wouldn't work well if you were trying to promote a blog on dog training. So although you can get massive amounts of traffic for a relatively cheap price it may not be the best traffic even if you are promoting something related to making money.

So is Traffic Monsoon a Scam?

I'm on the fence about this one. Yes you can purchase ads and probably get some targeted traffic if you're in the make money industry. Yes people are making money from referrals and such. But the whole structure of this program feels like an HYIP with the whole buying shares stuff. This isn't a real investment in like a mutual fund. So the structure of the shares aspect gives me pause. I don't know about the long term sustainability of this program especially since Charles has done this with other companies that have basically burned down.

So I don't know if I would invest a lot of time or money with this because of the sustainability aspect. Suppose you come in when the company is about to collapse. You'd lose your short like others have with his other programs. With that said, I would probably pass on this one unless you're okay with the risks or you want to use it for traffic for a make money program you're promoting.

In any event, I hope you enjoyed reading my review as much as I did writing it, and I would love to hear your opinion. So, don't be shy and tell me your 2 cents worth on the way out.

Is There An Alternative To Traffic Monsoon?

Clicking on a bunch of ads for a few hours a day to make some money may not be your cup of tea. I don't blame you, it's not mine either. I found my passion and love in affiliate marketing and make a decent living off it for many moons now. You could do the same. Of course, I am not nuts enough to tell you that's what you need to do, but if you are interested, I can help you.

  1. Mike , does not work like that, the visits does not cost to charly any money , becouse there are thousands of clickers who have to watch 10 ads per day just to earn referral comissions from ptc. Also, as the owner he determine how much the click cost. Take an example, i have to buy an .com domain , and a host package and script for a Traffic Exchange. Suppose its 1000 dollars a year. So if i want to be in profit i have to sell 1001 dollars for being 1 dollar profit. If i have 10 thousand members i have 100,000 clicks to sell a day – divide 100,000 in 1000 dollars its one cent per visit, Divide that by 55 days each visit real cost is less than 0.002 cents. If i sell you 1000 visits those are 20 cents on real cost. How many visits do you think traffic monsoon deliver per year? , more than 400 million i pressume.

  2. Hello Eddy! Thank you for another great review. I am not fan of PTC sites, I tried few, but definitely not my cup of tea to earn money, but that is not important in this case. I will try to describe PTC sites from aspect of an advertiser. They say that you have targeted traffic and that is true, but is problem is that people who are promoting as advertisers their opportunity are either clickers who don’t care about other promotions, so conversion is very very low. Oh, and I almost forgot, how much are they focused on the ad coming one after another?

    • Hey Dean,

      You’re very welcome my friend. I hear ya on PTC sites. And you’re right I don’t think you’ll get great conversions from a direct sales point of view. But I have found PTC are a great way to build a list where you cultivate a relationship over time which then leads to conversions for sales or leads. You just can’t use PTC with the wham bam approach. You have to pull people into your email funnell first. That said I’ve only been able to successfully do that with Clixsense. The other PTC aren’t as good in my opinion. Either way, I appreciate your feedback.

    • Yes, Clixsense is oldie but goldie in PTC world. Eddy, it is always pleasure to hear your opinion 🙂

    • Indeed Dean. They’ve managed to stay around for so long by doing the right things and expanding into other legit areas. Thanks for the support and chiming in. I appreciate my friend.

  3. Hi, Eddy!
    I’ve been enjoying reading all your posts; I’ve subscribed to your blog. I think it’s interesting that a lot of these “shady” sites seem to be owned and run by young guys, although I’m very sure girls do things like this, too. But of course, I say guys are responsible because I’m a girl lol. Thanks for posting! 🙂

    • Hey Allison,

      I’m glad you enjoy reading my content. Thanks for the continued support, I appreciate it.
      I think you could probably find a wide range of people that run some shady sites. But who knows. As long as I keep you guys in the loop so you can avoid the bad ones, that’s all I’m concerned with. LOL

  4. I am a member of Traffic Monsoon and have 1 revenue sharing position. I am getting 4 or 5 cents an hour from the revenue sharing and have earned $39.26. I have also earned $3.92 from paid to click ads. You have to surf only 10 sites every 24 hours to earn from the profit sharing. I am a member of another of Charles Scoville’s site and have always been paid promptly but have not requested a payment from Traffic Monsoon yet.

    • Hey Daryl,

      Thanks for chiming in and sharing your experience thus far. I’m not sure if a lot of folks would appreciate 4-5 cents an hour. But everyone is different. But please keep me posted on your journey with this company. I’d love to hear when you cash out!

    • 5 cents an hour = $1.2 per day. Divide by 10 clicks, that is 12 cents per click.

      They sell 1000 visitors for $50. That is 5 cents per click.

      So for every click you make, they lose 7 cents.

      They will have to make back the money from Free Members click, whom they pay 1 cent per click.

      The maths doesn’t sound right.
