I have been working on my online jobs. I am going next to investigate Hausernet which is a company that pays you to collect mail for them and code it into a special account
on the net. I think that this is a reputable company and some people make anywhere from
175 dollars to 240 o dollars every 3 months. I have also been scanning genuine jobs.com
on a regular basis to see what sorts of things are available. I would love to have a
writing job on the web that pays well. Some of them can pay

same

I'm sorry I havent been blogging lately. I have been busy with other matters this being the holiday season and all. I have been continuing with the same matters as before. I don't like the mturk thus far but I thing other people have done quite well with it. I think that I will continue with all of my current projects for awhile without adding anything new.

Saturday, November 29, 2008

blog

I had a nice hiatus for Thanksgiving. I did alittle bit of work with mturk and have three dollars in my account from textbroker.com. I am continuing to write for reviewstream and post on my forums. I have not been doing alot with blogging lately other than keeping my blogs up to a certain extent. Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.

Mturk

My latest site that I have been experimenting with alittle bit is Amazon.com's mturk.
It is a search site that pays you to do searches for Amazon. It is a bit like cha cha.
I have done only one search so far. I will let you know if this is something that works for me. I am continuing with my forum posting, reviewing and looking alittle bit at Genuinejobs.com.

Saturday, November 15, 2008

busy

I have been simply working with all of my different sites. I have made slightly over 100 dollars so far this month. It will be closer to two hundred if I can reach payout on Reviewstream. It still remains my favorite site because it is easy to use. I reached payment on gather and my lot the paid to post forums. These are very good sites for making a little bit of spare cash. There are other paid to post sites as well, such as Make Money Kingdom and Platinum Lounge, but I don't like them as well.

Wednesday, October 29, 2008

sites

I have been writing for a new place called textroker.com. It is site that hires writers to write on various topics. Most articles pay about 3.00 or 4.00 per article.
I think that the site is alittle underutilized because I had never heard of it before yesterday. I am hoping that many people out there will be able to use this site to make alittle bit of money on the side.

Saturday, October 18, 2008

Ciao

Many people seem to be earning money writing reviews on Ciao.com. I signed up and wrote a review, it didnt seem to be as simple as reviewstream but I know from people who have used this site, that it can be very lucrative. I have been posting on my forums and have been doing my usual online activities. I will let you know anything else that I hear about that seems like it might be a good deal.

Thursday, October 9, 2008

Ciao

I am investigating a new pay for review site. It is ciao. Ciao pays 1.00 for review
The payout is 5.00 via paypal. I think some people have been paid. I still like reviewstream, but I thought I would branch out. I also got one of my article published on Associated Content finally. I have also started doing some surveys on the my view survey site. My view is supposed to be really good and a high paying survey site.

Monday, September 29, 2008

sites

I am investigating some new paid blogging sites. I will let you know if I start writing for them. I know one person has made like one hundred dollars writing for this particular site. I hope that my blog is picked up and that I will be able to do so also. I would be really happy to be able to do that. I have almost reached payout on Reviewstream which will be fifty dollars. I will be very happy to have that in my account. It has been a good site so far and is really easy to write for.

Thursday, September 25, 2008

gather

I have been spending alot of money on gather as of late. It is a paid forum like my lot. I think I may have spoken about it in a previous post. You learn alot of interesting things from gather. Another interesting site is wellness 360. You can make money for putting your health information on it. I like it. I have also joined my view survey site. Alot of people like this site.

Saturday, September 13, 2008

Reviewstream

I've added the link for reviewstream. It is a easy to write review site. You can cash out once you receive 50.00 for your reviews. It is a good site. The reviews are quite easy to do. They only take a few minutes.

Wednesday, September 10, 2008

earnings

Hi faithful readers! I have been keeping myself busy with a grantwriting course I'm taking. This is kind of time consuming. I have also been writing quite a few articles for Reviewstream. I am hoping to reach the fifty dollar payout by the end of the month.
I have alot of work to do because I only have around 12.20 now. I will also cash out with with gather and my lot this month. Last month was exceptionally good. I'm not sure how the numbers this month will compare but they will be close.

Wednesday, September 3, 2008

adventures

Hi all! I am busy with all online activities. Last month was an especially good month for me as I earned 189.00 total. This counts both cash and gift cards. The biggest part of my earnings came from an online promotion for Dockers from which I received a 75.00 shell card. I was also paid 30.25 from my lot. I dont know if Septemeber will bring all these riches but I hope so! I have been writing for Reviewstream and I know several people have cashed out for 50.00. I hope that will be me soon.

Saturday, August 23, 2008

forums

I am continuing on with My lot and Gather. I need to make money and want to get payout for next month so I am working hard. A new site that I have registered for is Wellness 360. It is a great site thatn enables you to amke money and take care of your health at the same time. I will post a link next week so those that are interested can join.

Sunday, August 17, 2008

posting

My days have been busy with Gather, my lot and with Reviewstream. Reviewstream is a site where you can write reviews and be paid at either the bulk rate of .40 per post or 2.00 per post. I have heard most posts reviewing hotels pay at the 2.00 rate.
I really like this new site and have hopes that it will work well for me. I am really encouraged with my online earnings this month. I think that I will top 150.00 if I count both cash and gift cards. It definitley has been my best month yet.

Saturday, August 9, 2008

none

I have been spending alot of time on My lot and Gather. I have learned about cha cha on gather. You are paid to do text searches. I also have learned about spotwinner where you view videos for money. I will let you know next week if I am making any progress with these sites. Cha Cha requires you to have a referral.

Tuesday, July 29, 2008

forums

I have been experinmenting with a new paid forum. It is called Gather. It starts off with points once you have accumulated 3,000 points you can switch to a cash option.
Most people with a cash option can make 5.00 to 25.00 per week. It is worth a try. I found out about another forum as well it is wellness 360. It pays for you to try different health options.

Saturday, July 19, 2008

forums

Sorry, I havent written in so long. I had issues with the screen blinking on and off earlier in the week. I have been experimenting with two new forums. I have mentioned them briefly before. The forums are Make Money Kingdom and Gather. It is the same as boomertown in that participation will get you points. MMK you can exchange them for cash and Gather I think is giftcards. I still prefer my lot however because in my lot you see your cash earnings growing everyday.

Monday, July 14, 2008

forums

I would like to thank my readers for your patience. I know I havent been posting lately, but I am busy investigating new ways to make money online. I have been investigating other social forums where you can pay to post. There are so many online and I actually prefr them to survey taking. It is not fun to be spend 30 minutes on a paid survey just to be told that you do not qualify. It is a non competitive, fun way to make money. Platinum lounge is a new site, as well as a writing site who'se name escapes me at the moment but they pay 10 or 15 cents per post.

Sunday, July 6, 2008

Ad

My new thing is going to be ad brite. I've had alot of trouble getting the google adsense going on my blog so I am going to try a new service adbrite which has ads.
I also have the bidvertiser, but bidvertiser does not pay out until you have 5o dollars worth of clicks on it and so far, I have like .51 cents so i dont think it is going to be a big moneymaker for me. I will post post proof of payments for my lot and cash crate when I get them.

Thursday, July 3, 2008

Kingdom

I have been investigating a new site Make Money Kingdom. It is similar to my lot where you get paid to post. You earn gold coins that are then converted into cash. I just started on this site so I dont know how easy or difficult it is to cash out. I think other people have been doing fairly well on it. Might as well give it a try. I made payout on my lot, cash crate and survey planet panel this month. NOthing to get to excited about, but I had some computer problems which limited my earnings.

Monday, June 30, 2008

बी.towne

I have discovered Boomertowne which is a site like my lot. It is a social forum where everything you do on the site pays you money. You can make money by playing games, and by interacting on the site virtually everything you do on this site can pay you money.
If you are Candaian you can earn a 100.00 visa card on this site. americans I think just earn points for doing things online.

Thursday, June 26, 2008

panel

I have been busy on a new site. It is planet panel. You can take a daily survey on this site and they have approximately 300 to choose from. They incorporate surveys from Greenfield Online, OTx research and others to give you many choices. Each survey you take is worth approximately 100 points. Two hundred points and you can receive a 1.00 paypal reward. it is not alot of money but you can save your points until you can get a worth while reward. You are virtually guaranteed to be able to do a survey everyday. The fact they pay by paypal is great with me. You usually have to wait several weeks for a check for the panels that pay. With paypal you get your reward very quickly.

Sunday, June 22, 2008

cash

Cash Crate is a good site to earn money on. They also have a great referral program.
You get 3.00 for each referral that signs up plus 20% of their earnings. They have daily surveys which are .80 per day and there are alot of them. They also have a variety of paid offers which credit easily. You reach payout after you have reached payout in one month. You are paid on the 20th of the next. These are pretty good terms
for a paid for offers program. I would urge everyone to sign up for the Cash Crate. The referral link is on my sidebar.

I have been involved in a blood pressure research study. I got the information from this from the Annika group I had mentioned last time. This is a group that pays you to try new medication as part of a BP study. Anyway, I have talked on here about Ximmy before it seems like they are not paying out as quickly now. This makes me alittle nervous so I am going to write for Reviewstream instead. I have decided not to do anything else with shared reviews because their revenues have been cut and I am making all of 70 cents for my efforts.

Friday, June 13, 2008

Annika

I wanted to take a moment to discuss Annika's group at MSN again. This is a really helpful site that discusses paid surveys. She has links and feedback about most paid survey sites, including those that pay well as scam sites. I am very greatful for this site as it has helped me make a ton of money. Those of you that work at home know that
every little bit of help you get on your quest to make money is helpful. In addition, there are message boards where she posts helpful links for the members of her group. GBU, Annika.

Monday, June 9, 2008

same

I have been writing on Ximmy the social forum. I talked about that alittle in the last post. I have also been working with Getref to try to accrue referrals. It isn't a fast process though. It takes many days of clicking on links or a few of signing up for programs before you will have enough credits for a referral. The thing with all these programs is that you have got to spend time on them. They do not work instantly.

Thursday, June 5, 2008

various

I have been doing the usual things. It has been very hot here and it's going to continue. I have been spending plenty of time on the computer. I've been working on my lot and ximmy which is a social forum where you write reviews. You get 5 points per review and 1,000 points equals ten dollars. i was able to get an ipod from Amazon with my earnings from surveys. Many times you are paid with Amazon certificates. So it's been a pretty good month so far.

Monday, June 2, 2008

Topspots

I have 13.14 to cash out with on my lot this month. It was fairly easy to do,but required a commitment. I usually do about 40 posts per day. The main thing I wanted to talk about was the Top Spots. I want to sell space for anyone to advertise on my blog.
All you bloggers out there who would like to advertise on my blog; click on the Topspots link and you can advertise your blog on mine. As you can see by my counter I have a steady readership and could help to make you money. Advertise on this blog and you won't be disappointed. I have an RSS feed set up as well as a link to technorati.
I get between 10 to 20 hits per day and am now page 1 on google.

Thursday, May 29, 2008

Ref

I have been using GetRef which is a site that allows you to get credits towards referals by either clicking on links on their site or signing up for progams.
This is an easier way to get referrals for programs. I ahve started finally getting credits on this progam. Many people have commented that they like this site much better than starrefferal which is another referral exchange program. I will also investigate Reviewstream which people seem to be making money from.

Monday, May 26, 2008

lot

I know I've written about my lot in the past,but now over on the sidebar I have included a link for my lot. My lot is a community like facebook,my space or yuwie where you can have conversations with others. It's basically a social forum you get paid for your entries and can cash out with paypal when you have at least ten dollars in your account. If you refer others you are also given a portion of their earnings. I just started my lot last month and will be able to cash out this month. It is an easy way to make income.

I like hearing about new things on the internet from my lot. I have heard about a new blogging site called Creamaid. Apparently you do not need to have your entire blog approved as you do with most blogging sites, you can simply have each post approved.
I am going to check this out. I have been writing and posting on the Shared Reviews site also. I am continuing to get payments from various survey sites both by paypal and by check.

Tuesday, May 20, 2008

Triond

I have found a new writng site. it is called Triond. Triond is unique among the other writing sites because it allows you to receive royalties from your writing. I believe you make money anytime your article is viewed. The quality on this site is better than some of the other writing sites. Yesterday, I was happy to deposit 44.00 worth of checks in my bank account. This were mostly from doing surveys, as well as, Inboxdollars. I am participating more with Cash Crate at this time though. Ibox dollars knocked their surveys down from 1.00 per survey to 50 cents, consequently It is not worth my time to take them, as most of them are quite long. My goal is as usual to continue to increase my earnings.

Friday, May 16, 2008

fun

I am excited about making progress on Shared Reviews. I got some payouts this week, from CVS Advisor panel and My survey (always a good site) I also got a Thank you gift of a 10.00 Amazon card from xxxxxxxxx. I am expecting several more items in the coming weeks including a 28.00 Inboxdollars check among others.
I am continuing to write on My lot, and am working toward payout on Clixsense.

Wednesday, May 14, 2008

Shared Reviews

I am finally having some limited success with Shared Reviews. I have belonged to this site for awhile, but only recently have made any progress. In a nutshell, you write reviews, and other members of the community vote on your reviews. Going by your reviews, and the number of votes you get you are eligible to share in the profits.
Some people manage do quite well on this site and make 5 or 6 hundred a month. If I made 200.00 per month, I'd be in hogheaven. Anyway I'm going to continue writing and participating in the community and see where it takes me.

Sunday, May 11, 2008

things

I am participating in Cashcrate instead of Inboxdollars. Inboxdollars has cut it's payments for surveys down to fifty cents instead of 1.00 per survey. This is a major frustration. Cashcrate has more survey opportunties than Inboxdollars and pays .80 per each survey. It doesn't sound like alot of money,but it adds up over time. Today is mother's day and I am favored by a visit from my beloved son. He also helped us move in
some furniture, which we really needed his help on. This week I plan to do more with
Shared Reviews, Brijta,Getref and other sites I haven't gone to that often.

Wednesday, May 7, 2008

माय lot

I have been spending time on mylot because I consider that much more fun than taking surveys, or even writing reviews for that matter, for those of you unfamiliar with
my lot it is a site like Yuwie,Myspace or Facebook, that lets users start conversations. People that are familiar with both, like my lot better than Yuwie. The more you post the more you are paid, so it behooves you to post frequently, or to respond to topics or discussions already posted by others.

Sunday, May 4, 2008

various

I have been writing alot on my lot lately. It is much more fun than PTC programs where you see and hear the same ads over and over. Writing several posts a day is your way to earn money. I have also heard about another program that pays you for writing product
reviews. This program is called Brijta. I am going to check to out because short reviews 3 to 6 sentences are accepted. I'm still in the "petty cash syndrome" with my various moneymaking endeavors. However, I am making more money every week. I got new flooring put in which is a result of some of the money I got from the insurance. It is laminate and looks really good, I'm happy to say.

Thursday, May 1, 2008

Scratchback

Scratchback is my newest program. It allows you to post a link on my blog for 5.00. Conversely, I could also put a link on your blog. This is a new enterprise of mine, although several fellow bloggers that I know are using this program. I will let you know later how it works for me. I am enjoying posting on my lot which can be addicting at times. I am also continuing with my various other ventures. I have sevreal checks coming in the mail which is always a good feeling. I have nothing else that is new to report at this time. Stay tuned to the same batchannel for further updates.

Monday, April 28, 2008

I don't have alot to report today. I have been doing very well making payout from my various survey programs. I am waiting to hear from Loudlaunch to see whether or not I am accepted as a blogger. I am continuing to do the usual things. I am working at home today and there is a tornado warning. Knowing what happened last time to my house,it makes me nervous to hear anything about tornadoes. I have heard about a new program that allows you to review websites and write about them. For participating in this service you are paid 10.00 in your paypal account. I will name the site in my next blog entry. Don't forget to visit my husbands website and blog for information about notarization.http://StephenHHoffman.vpweb.com

Surveys

I just wanted to remind everyone if they want to make money with surveys to check out Annika's group on MSN. This group has a complete listing of almost all the survey sites out there, as well as, comments on whether or not they have paid. She also puts
out information almost everyday on paid focus groups. This is all done for free. You have got to join this group however, in order to be privy to the information. Also, it is all coyrighted material so no copying,pasting etc. is allowed. I have found this site to be the one of the most valuable on the web, and an excellent resource for free.
Another excellent site is Survey Police. They also maintain a large listing of survey sites. They list member rankings of the sites. Any company that does not meet their criteria is not allowed to list with them. Again, this is a free site. There are so many resources available on the web: In my opinion, paying anyone for anything is a mistake.

Opinion Outpost and others

I've been doing some shopping this week. I am fortunate that I got enough from my insurance settlement to be able to replace some household furnishings that got damaged in the tornado. I'm continuing with my usual activities. I have reached payout on several of my survey sites. I have applied to Opinion Outpost about being an affiliate.
Opinion Outpost is one of my favorite survey sites and is very easy to reach pay out. They have a a variety of interesting surveys on many different topics. I should find out soon whether or not I have been approved. Look for their banner on my blog site and sign up with them if you would like to participate in taking surveys on a good site. I hope everyone has a good day today! I plan to.

traffic programs

I've signed up with Danboost a new traffic program. the thing that is neat about this site is that you just open your browser and the clicks come to you. You do not have to click on a number of websites. The websites you have to click on are manual exchanges.
Danboost is a auto traffic exchange. I like it so I may sign up for more auto exchange programs. My roof is finally fixed and I am waiting on the check for the insurance company. It seems like when you really need something it never comes. Hopefully next week will bring some more lucrative opportunities for me.

Friday, April 18, 2008

working

I'm still having some isssues with payperpost. I think i've got to submit my post again. This is a frustrating situation. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Anyway the roof is repaired. It looks great and this is a happy situation. I will get the flooring replaced next. Smorty which is another paying blog service recently introduced a new system. I might check with them again. I participated in a local focus group yesterday and received 115.00. That was cool. I'm also doing a handlotion survey for eight dollars and a ten dollar printer survey. I am making progress on escaping the petty cash syndrome. A word about Inbox dollars, They have a somewhat bad rep on the web,but they pay quickly once you hit your 30.00 payout. I am now a gold member and am paid promptly withing a day or two of reaching payment. Happy Blogging and surveying.

Tuesday, April 15, 2008

Lots going on

I have been on My Lot lately. It is a social networking site that pays you to participate. I answered a discussion and also sponsored a discussion. I made a few cents for my efforts but I know it doesnt take long for discussions and things to add up. I know people who have made 30.00 or more just by doing the same things. I am finally getting my roof repaired yay! I've got a crew starting here tomorrow. In addition to the roof, I'm also getting my flooring replaced. I've got this ugly indoor/outdoor carpet which I plan to replace with laminate flooring. It will be nice to have this done. I should be able to focus more on my earnings after this is done.

Clixsense and others

One thing I plan to check out is goggle weblog. Supposedly if you subscribe to this your google page rank is automatically calculated and something a blogger doesn't need to worry about. I'm going to read more about this this week as trying to get my page ranked on google as become a major precoccupation of mine. Another issue is that google
only ranks pages (on average) only every three to six months, so you could have great content,multiple subscribers and still have to wait several months to see the fruits of your labor.
Changing gears here, I just wanted to say a word about one of my favorite PTC's Clixsense. This site in my opinion, is one of the best on the web. All of the clicks are at least one cent and some are more. They pay out anytime you reach the 10.00 level. In general it is not useful to upgrade on PTC's unless it is free Clixsense is the exception. One ten dollar payment will get you 525 clicks off the bat. You can cash out in about two months even if you have no referrals. They pay you ten cents for each referral and will pay up to five levels deep. You can join clixsense by clicking on my link. I would be so happy if you did! You wont regret it.

Wednesday, April 9, 2008

feeds

I hope you noticed my new feeds and links. I joined FEEDJIT as well as, Gimme links and Got links. In order to have a high google page rank that is (in the top five pages)
you really need to have other people linked to your blog. There are several ways to do this; you can pay a company such as page5 to get your blog ranked in the top 5 pages by google or you can buy a domain, or pay someone else usually about 49.95 per month to get your blog on page 1. Another way that supposedly works is to have other people link to your blog or website. You can do this for free through the above link exchange sites
or you can have your blog or website listed as part of the Open Directory project. You can also get your family and loved ones to link to your blog. This will help your page rank also. I am hoping that the above will help me go from google page zero to page 3 or 4. As I explained before you need to have a high page rank in order to secure good writing assignments. I'm hoping anyway.

various

A community on the web that I have found helpful in terms of blogging and moneymaking ideas is the Independent World Community. It is run by Lisa who also has the blog "The Life of an Unbalanced Libra." She has done well making money with her blog as well as PTC programs. She also uses BRRing which is the telephone advertising program which pays you everytime someone calls you on their number. She also has affiliations with Fairytale Treasures, a PTC program as well as Bankroll Bucks and Piggy -Bank Cash.I have joined a few of these programs. Affiliate programs in general I think only earn you money if you have a big following on the web or a wide variety of friends and acquaintances. My husband is an Amazon affiliate,as well as a Global Travel affiliate but I dont know how well those ventures are doing. I'm not comfortable outlaying cash to another company to be in business with them. I still like taking surveys although there is no huge cash benefit to doing them,it is fun and easy, and can be interesting you learn about marketing ideas of the future.

Friday, April 4, 2008

promotion

I have been concentrating on promoting my blog. I have gone to bloglines,technorati and tomorrow I will go to Blogrush. The name of the game is to get a higher google page
rank. The higher your google pagerank the more assignments you are are eligible to take with many of the blogging programs such as payperpost,blogertise,smorty etc. I think technorati is a good site for beginners as they seem to do alot of the work for you and make it as simple as possible. I like to make things easy for myself. Anyway I did participate in a focus group this week and got 17.00 from my survey work. I m working away.

Wednesday, April 2, 2008

link referral

Link referral is a site where you can get credit for reviewing other people's sites. They in turn will review your site. It is a good way to get exposure for your site as well as reviewing other interesting websites that you might benefit from knowing about.
Linkreferral has definitely gotten hits for me on my blog. Also, you can promote yourself on forums to increase your exposure to others. I'm working out getting my google page rank up as getting the best assignments on any of the blogging sites usually includes having a rank in googles top three or four pages. Anyway I'm continuing with my usual things no big news this week although I hope to be working for payperpost very soon.

Sunday, March 30, 2008

payperpost

I am new to payperpost this is my first assignment! I am so excited. For those of you who don't know payperpost allows you to communicate with advertisers and write for them. In other words you are paid to promote products. You can get assignments that pay as little as 5.00 or those that pay 80 or 100 dollars. It all depends on your experience and your expertise with images and printed media as well as your google page rank. I am reaally excited about all the opportunities that are available and learning about how this all works. I plan to investigate Payperpost University to see what they have to offer and hopefully make friends in the community. I also want to work with the Open Directory to promote my blog and link to others who are working in this field as well.Payperpost offers unique opportunities for bloggers and those who want to get into the blogging for money field. It is interesting and userfriendly and those who have limited experience will benefit from their expertise. Wish me luck on my adventure. Copy/paste functionality has been disabled while viewing the image.

new things

I got approved for payperpost. I am happy about that. It should enable me to make more money. I will write more about that tomorrow. I am participating in a focus group on Weds. with Metroresearch if you live in the DC area they are a good group to sign up with. They seem to run lots of focus groups. Annika's a site I have mentioned previously, has been sending out great referral links for various surveys and focus groups. They average about 25.00 or more per link. Am I making a living working from home? I would say I'm seriously pursing it. Right now I'm still in the petty cash stage ,but every week is alittle better.

back from vacation

I went to Las Vegas this weekend, just returned earlier today. I had a number of survey and writing opportunities waiting for me. Millspanel a panel run by General Mills is now recruiting members. They tend to pay with Amazon gift certificates and General Mills products. I have other writing opportunities I am going to be pursuing the rest of this week as well as some links for giveaways. I hope you have checked out the Clixsense as well as, the Cash4books link. These are quick and easy ways to make money and be able to work part time from home. I will let you know with my next entry how the rest of this week was in terms of money and gift certificates.

Hits4Pay

Hits4Pay is the best PTC site in my opinion. They are the only site that I am aware of that offers two cents per click. Most of the ads come directly to your inbox and you receive only around 2 per day. You are not indundated with spam or 1/4 or 1/3 of a cent ads as many PTC's do. The only downside of Hits4Pay is that they require a 25.00 cashout. It takes a long time in order to accrue enough credits to cash out unless you can sign up a number of affiliates. I started my Hits4Pay account in October and now am slightly over half way to payout. The good thing is that it only takes a few minutes every day. I am reapplying to payperpost today,and hope that my blog will pass muster. I am really interested in working with them. I am continuing with my surveys and have reached payout on several sites. I enjoy surveys because they can be done with little or no concentration and are interesting in that they show marketing trends and concepts that companies are interested in developing.

Cash4books click me!

I am getting a 14.00 dollar check from Surveyspot. It is always nice to check on your balances and find that you have more earnings than you anticipated. I have sold another book through Cash4ebooks.net. They are a good agency and I did receive payment through paypal.They want books that are new releases or textbooks. My husband and his family have older books they need to sell,but they were older and did not have an ISBN number.
I think the cash4books needs to have an ISBN number. I have once again problems with the PTC's Clixmania and Clix4coins seem to have deleted my account because I missed a few days. That is frustrating when you have money with these agencies. Other than Clixsense and Hits4pay I am dubious about PTC;s in gneral.

Internet Adventures

I have found out some info. about Search and Earn from another blogger. Although she was able to make 13.00 dollars on the site she did not recommend them to others as she felt they are worthless as a home page search engine. She says they only direct you to sites that have paid them a fee to be listed. She said they do have a great referral program however. I got a check from Your two cents today. yay! I should be able to participate in the Socratic Tech forum for 50.00 on Weds. and Thurs. This should be interesting. I am going to work on Shared Reviews this week as people who have worked on them consistently have made good money. I am still waiting to hear back from google adsense. Many people seem to be happy with that program. In the meantime I am clicking and surveying away. I also receive a number of opportunities to participate in focus groups. They typically pay anywhere from 100 to 200 dollars per session. Unfortunately most of the time since their criteria is pretty specific I am unable to participate.I will write again soon.

new things

I got a 10.00 Amazon gift certificate from my Conagra foods group. I will add this to the loot. I have signed up for google adsense and am waiting to be approved by them.
I also will be using slash and search for my homepage from now on. I will let you know how it works out. You are paid to use them as your search engine. I found them through
Clixsense which as you know if my favorite PTC. I am also going to work on my Shared Reviews site. Shared reviews will pay you for reviewing products. This is a site that has paidout for some people. I am continuing with my usual things including Inbox dollars which has kind of a bad rap on the net. I like them though and find they always pay consistently and rapidly once you make 30.00. This is not the same for every site
I'm sorry to say. I like to work on the net but I would like to have a consistent income. I like to take surveys but that is not going to get you paid on a consistent basis.

Plugging Along

I have nothing really new to report today. One thing of note though is that I had a tech come out to upgrade my modem. I should be in good shape from now on out. (I hope)
I am continuing with my usual pursuits. One new thing that I learned today is that Cash Converts is a site that buys old software,DVD's, household items and just about anything else you might want to sell. This might be helpful for us since we are trying to close down another household and need to get rid of some accumulations and posesssions. I was paid this week from my Cash4booksnet. I was happy about that.

Clixsense,Cash4books.net

I got my Clixsense check this week. I also got giftcards from Starbucks and Pure Romance. I am working at ways to promote my blog. Visitor Boost allows you 1,000 visitors for 1.99. My books were accepted at Cash4books.net. This should net me about 4.50 in my paypal account. Help me out and click on the cash4books button on my blog. I make four dollars per referral. I want to make money any way I can. I also signed up at a site similar to Craig's list to promote my blog. Clixsense is one of the few PTC's that I think is worth upgrading. They offer 525 premium clicks right off the bat for an upgrade. Along with Hits for Pay I think Clixsense is an excellent established PTC.

more computer trouble

Unfortunately I had some more computer trouble this week which has limited my opportunities to post to blog,do surveys etc. I actually had a tornado touch down in my neighborhood which caused tree to crash into my roof etc. Also, I think my modem needs to be replaced,however, as you can read I'm back today. Nothing is really new made some
money with Brring.

Blogging for $

Payperpost requires you to have at least ten submissions in 30 days. I am working on
that requirement so you may be hearing more from me. I know that some blogging assignments on ppp and other sites can be quite lucrative ranging anywhere from $5 to $500 per assignment. Naturally, you have to work your way up as you do with any sort of
program of this nature. I have been continuing with the paid surveys and ptc's. I have some small checks and gift certificates coming this week which I am looking forward to.
I also have reached payout on clixsense so that payout should be coming this week or next. I find myself eagerly looking for the mailman everyday. It's such a disappointment when all I see is bills or magazines. Anytime I get a check all be it a
small one it is a happy day. I am pretty persistent so I'm sure eventually I will be maing a steady income.

SSDD

I am continuing with my same pursuits. The new thing that I have done this week is to join the group Independent World Community which is a group I found through linkrefferal. They have many moneymaking tips and sites they use. They also have proof of payments listed on the site. Today I'm going to work on possting links on a referral exchange site that I found though clixsense.I am going to post on the IWC forum that I am available to swap refferals with people. I am still working on a way to escape the "petty change" syndrome which is what by and large you make with surveys and PTC unless you work at it constantly. My husband can get my blog on more indexed pages. That will probably be helpful in the quest. I wish luck to all of you out there that are the same journey. To make the most money I think you have to be technically savvy which I'm not, but I can get some money from my hubby.

Pay Per Post

Hello all! pay per post is another site that I am trying out. Advertisers pay you to write on your blog. You write content that is reviewed by them and others. I will let you know how it works out.
I am happy to have my laptop back and will be doing some more regular posting. I have a noticed a decline in the number of paid surveys lately. This is not good for the piggybank. I think that writing reviews and sharing on the blog will probably be the most lucrative thing I can do. My favorite PTC sites are still Hits4pay and clixsense. They are doing well. I'm having some difficulty with clix4coins. I am not able to sign. This is not cool since I have some money on the site. I was just paid by surveyspot which is one of my favorite survey companies. This is a positive thing. I also am getting blog traffic from linkrefferal. So, I am still working at my craft. My goal for this week is to try to make 50.00 since you all have heard that try to keep me accountable. 5 or 10 dollars weekly is not that helpful to the bank account.

Computer Woes

My laptop has unfortunately crashed on me. I have to resort to using the desktop.
It is not as fast as my laptop so it limits me somewhat. I was just paid by Opinion
World directly into my paypal account. Alot of survey companies are doing this now
it saves the time and expense of writing a check. Opinion World seems to have some lucrative surveys and offers payment in the form of American Airlines flight credits also. I tried a traffic zapper program to get more blog trafffic,but they seemed to want at least ten dollars for traffic. I am still using link referral and other options. Buzz sponge is my latest thing to sign up for. THey pay you 30 cents for each video you watch. They email you with offerings. They said you can expect approximately 2 per day. I will be doing more as soon as I can get my laptop up and running. It is not every comfortable in this room with the desktop! I will write more later.

making money

I am going to be experimenting with RSS feeds to get more traffic to my blog. I do participate in Link Referral now. I think that all good programs that work with blogs such as blogative that pay you for writing in your blog and referring others to products that you have written about require sites that get at least 10 hits per day. I think that everything you can do to promote traffic is the thing. I am now a "gold member" with Inboxdollars so I am eligible to be paid weekly instead of monthly for the offers and surveys I have completed. There are a number of other reward for offer sites such as Cash Crate(which requires only 1o dollars to cash out) Cashdailyrewardz with pays with paypal,Treasure Trooper which has a variety of offers: and gangster greed which has the same thing. There are a number of ways to make money on the web the secret is persistence.

Bzz Agent and others

I spoke about Bzz agent in my last entry. I was offered two campaigns one of which I was not interested in Track Shack which is a music dowload site and Shower scrub automatic shower cleaner. I unfortunately found the shower cleaner site campaign was already full. i was not interested in the other. I will continue to participiate in the Bzz Agent site to see what happens
however. I also attempted to sign up for the Review me site which is a site that pays you to write reviews for on various projects. They said I did not have enough traffic to my blog! I was disappointed because I was told a person could make $20 to $200 for reviewing products. I am coninuing with my survey sign up programs and have made enough on several sites to receive payment. I think they said their checks bulk mail however since it seems to take forever for them to come. Getting traffic to come to your blog seems to be the most important factor in getting paid to blog. This is why there are so many traffic explosion products

Survey Police and others

I have found some new survey sites with the Survey Police. These are a lsit of survey sites that have been vetted,and most have been reviewed several times. Opinion Place is a survey site which offers payments by paypal as well as, airmiles available through American Airlines. Survey Police is a new and interesting site to look for paid survey programs as well as opportunites to write reviews and do mystery shopping. I also have written for Shared Reviews which offers payments based on your product reviews. Bzz agent is also a site that I am experimenting with Bzz Agent does not offer payment but does offer campaigns in which agents who write for them get products to test and market. As I said You are not paid by by Bzz agent,but whatever products they give you to try for their campaigns you are invited to keep. Some of them are very nice like sonic care toothbrushes and other intersting items that keep those participating in the campaigns interested and writing reviews and telling others about the products.

The best PTC sites

The best PTC sites in my opinion are Hits for Pay and Clixsense. Not only do they have new advertising everyday,but Hits for Pay starts off with a 10.00 bonus. After you are paid the $10
you are paid .02 per click. Payment is made via paypal. Clixsense is one of the few PTC sites that
pays to upgrade. You receive 525 premium ads upon upgrade. They will pay by check or Paypal
upon reaching 10.00. The only issue with Clixsense is that it the cost of a check takes 3.00 out of the amount you are paid. I am somewhat disappointed with the survey sites that I have been investigating. I've signed up with at least 100 sites this includes both survey sites and focus groups
and my income thus far has been limited to a few dollars per month. There are many surveys that
I am selected for that seem to encounter technical difficulties and need to close thus negating half and hour or 45 minutes. I am now investigating new opportunites to make money online. There are several methods out there and I will let you know how they work out.

Net audio ads

I've signed up with Net audio ads. You are supposed to be paid anytime anyone visits your blog. This is a new thing that I'm trying. I've heard several disappointing things about PTC sites so am not going to be utilizing them as much.

Back at last

Sorry, I havent been able to post. Anyway I have been having a great deal of difficulty with Paid Vg. Please do not click on that link. I have signed up for about 100 different survey sites and have made some small amts. of money. I am waiting for a check from clixsense my main PTC program. I hope it comes this week. I am trying DailyCash Rewardz which is a site that pays you to complete offers. This is similar to I. Box dollars but promises payment sooner.

Annika's great site cant say enough. It has a comprehensive list of paid surveys and focus groups as well as a list of those you should stay away from.

Thursday, January 10, 2008

Annika's

Annika's is really a great site. It also has info about paid focus groups which if you do not know are much more lucrative than paid surveys. I've been signing up for everything. I've set a personal goal to make $5per day which does not sound like a lot, but it is a start. Ebookdrop is another place to check out especially if you have alot of books lying around. You put in the IBN number and they will pay you cash for the book.

great site for info about paid surveys

Annika's is a great site for paid surveys. It is on google under favorite survey sites. I've been paidby Pinecone and took another 3dollar survey this am for Surveysavvy

Traffic Exchange

Being as the amount of money I've been making is underwhelming, I'm going to try a traffic exchange program. I'm also trying some free lance writing on Associated Content.
