Walking down the corridor, you veer down a flight of stairs, caked in orange carpeting. The coal black air freezes its way down your slender garments, as you obtain a turn to the left.
A rotten-oak door lays before your trail, as you note the finely-trimmed design with intricate carvings. With a slight shrug, you shove the door open, as an invitation to join the room beseeches your await.
You transcribe the chamber's appearance: a pool table, television, three lamps, two couches, all enveloped in a sun-drained blue tint. The television flickers between a black and amber-colored picture and static, as a fan rotates back and forth with an unmoving propeller. Two lamps overhanging the billiards table luster a sun-drained cerulean, while a lamp in the corner drafts light from the air, revealing a vortex of darkness.
"Welcome to my nightmare…"
Puzzled, you turn around, as a salt shaker beats you with a severed arm.
- Welcome to V.2 of SaLT's AllAdvantage Review -

I. Default
A. History
AllAdvantage is a revolutionary fresh service founded in February of 1999, as it acclaimed its consumers to revenue currency via the "Viewbar". They have changed how Internet users and companies interact.
Now with over 12 million members taking all advantage of the potentially free income, Viewbars are in operation regularly, increasing money for AllAdvantage and its members while the advertisers get the mindfulness that has been allotted to them.
AllAdvantage is based in San Francisco, CA, with offices ranging from all over the globe, from New York City to London.
B. What?
By replacing irritating and often bandwidth-consuming spam, advertisers are now gaining the world's attention via AllAdvantage's Viewbar, which enables communications of advertisements and discounts between vendors and consumers.
AllAdvantage is a degree of entirety, which would appeal to all eras: all within a grasp of essential determination and motivation.
Are you elder enough to enjoy a diminutive income? If so, you are aged sufficient for this corporation.
II. Pros
A. Reliability; Fixed Rate
Unlike the commonplace "Pay to Surf" corporation, AllAdvantage's consistency in rates have remained sincere. For example, assemblages such as "GoToWorld" declare a new revenue rate monthly, thus wasting your time if the desired amount is not met. For example, $.50/hour is consistent, and will not be substituted spontaneously.
If unpredictability is favored among you, I do not recommend this correlation as a result of solidity and high-performance. Despite this, I have received monthly installments from this organization, as pay seems to be sincerely reliable.
III. Cons
A. Software
The principal conflict I have encountered using the "Viewbar" is the version predicament, which has increased system standards prior to operation. For example, if you are functioning on a 640 x 480 pixel monitor, the "Viewbar" will recognize this, thus with stubbornness which will remain it incapable of operation.
B. Deficit Hours
Along with several service changes, AllAdvantage has reinstated its purpose with the US, thus with a provision of $.53/hour for a maximum of 15/month. Despite this, minimum check accruements are currently $30.
Compared to prior times, AllAdvantage has plunged on the "Pay to Surf" market, where hopes and dreams exceeded to that of 40 hours/month with installments of $.50/hour. Dreams are abstract, and life is reality. Reality was simple; 25 hours/month for a revenue rate of $.50/hour.
C. Referral Marketing
Many of the web's population has noted the infamous call of AllAdvantage, as they have joined whether or not the criteria for their preferences were met. In other words, most of us who will join have already.
As a result, collection of referrals has been reinstated to a fresh level of difficulty. How did I accrue? I collected 400 referrals in a week in late November, when people were mostly unknowledgeable of the concept.
Overall, referrals are basically consumed by ones higher in origin of the base company.
D. Abusers
By the use of automated programs which act as though a surfer is actively surfing, many members have taken advantage of the concept which is one of the many causes of the downfall of AllAdvantage. For example, advertisers aren't receiving a solid amount of traffic, as they withdraw from AllAdvantage.
With fewer sponsors, their net worth crashes. As a result, hours are suppressed and the company is in tremendous pain.
«« Conclusion »»
Overall, AllAdvantage has an optimistic outlook from already-existing members, though a fresh start is not recommended. If you contain an ample amount of referrals, a commonplace given would be to earn your revenue honestly, letting them die peacefully. For potentially-new members:
Everything happens on a course: let nature decompose its body.
