There are many pubic Autosurf investment opportunities available today. A simple search for "autosurf" returns about 1 million results on Yahoo. Anyone could start on this type of Internet investments.

The question is: - "Would you like?"

With the ease in budding HYIP "start" the possibility of scripts used by popular programs such as 12DailyPro, do you really want to invest your hard earned money with these people?

While reading various forums related Autosurf, it became clear that these programs were no more than elaborate pyramid schemes put together with "ready to go" scripts. To avoid legal problems, they say "you pay for viewing ads" and that "investment" that is, in fact, not an investment, but a "fee." The administrators of these programs say they are able to sustain the payment of high yields (usually over 30% per month) for the money that comes from people wanting to buy traffic in Autosurf not direct. Do you believe them? I certainly do not.

In December, I managed to track 18 Autosurf closures. The real figure is probably more than that because Autosurfs new seem to arise every day and disappear the next. How many will last a week? Not much.

Internet investments can be profitable however. You just have to know where to invest. My advice to newcomers would avoid investment in public Autosurfs completely. Not worth browsing for an hour each day, only to lose their money to a criminal 10 years of age, with a dash. Sure, there may be some that last for a longer period of time, but sooner or later it will close.

Instead, look for reliable private investments that have a great chance to survive and have a steady flow of income. Private investments are usually have the money that comes from trading on stock exchanges and buying small businesses. Although yields are not so large as had been promised by Autosurfs - are much safer.
