You cannot make money online by getting paid to surf the web because there is actually no such thing.
Now I may be going out on a limb by saying this but the more I research programmes that offer people commission for surfing the Internet, the more I am convinced that there is no way anyone can make any money online just from surfing the web.
Over the years there have been countless online programmes that lead you to believe that you can make money just by browsing the Internet and in general this is what they offer members who take the plunge to sign up:
(The following is taken from the agloco.com website)
Search: Every time you use the Viewbar™ to do an Internet search, AGLOCO earns money from the search engine providers. (For example, Google pays as much as $0.10 on average for each search that is directed to its search engine.)
Advertising: The Viewbar™ itself displays ads that are targeted based upon the websites you’re visiting. When you click on an ad and make a purchase, AGLOCO receives a referral fee, which we pass on to our Members. (Please note: Individual members do not receive any compensation for clicking on ads in the Viewbar™, and the Viewbar™ can detect if someone is clicking ads in a fraudulent manner.)
Transaction commissions: Many major retailers pay commissions when you refer customers who make a purchase. AGLOCO collects that commission and passes it on to our members. (For example, Amazon pays an 8.5% commission to most websites who refer customers, and has cut deals for even larger percentages. The bigger the AGLOCO community, the better commission we can negotiate for our Members.)
I’m not trying to pick on AGLOCO specifically it’s just that they are the latest “paid to surf the web” programme that has failed to pay anyone to surf the web! If you are or were a member of the AGLOCO programme you would have received the following e-mail notification:
We would like to update you on the status of AGLOCO’s operations. We continue to believe in the AGLOCO concept, but our revenue is currently not sufficient to give Members a meaningful distribution. And though there are increases in membership, the resulting revenue is not enough to support operating costs. As a development team we are unable to continue to use our savings to fund the operations. If any Member would like to pursue continuing the operations of AGLOCO, you may contact us at agloco1@live.com .
We would like to thank every Member for supporting our effort to bring a piece of the Internet directly to the user. We hope that we can find a way to keep the operations going.

The AGLOCO programme was very well set up and gained literally millions of members (in fact as I write this post they are still accepting sign-ups)? So if a well set up programme like AGLOCO didn’t manage to start paying its members to surf the Internet then what programme possibly does?
One more time – There’s no such thing as getting paid to surf the web.
