2012-02-08T19:05:00.000-08:00

So I decided to update my theme with one of the pretty ones they had offered here and now I can't find my blog links! OMG, lol, it took me years to gather those . . . boo hoo :-( Alright, enough of my whining :-) If you have a blog related to making money online and wouldn't mind being listed on my blogroll, please leave a comment. If I don't get any takers, I'll have to go hunting and

No website, no problem! You can still make money online.

2012-02-05T16:44:00.000-08:00

Ok folks, I just came across the easiest way to start making money online ever! It has literally taken me about an hour or so to get up and running. Could the fact that the Superbowl just started have anything to do with just how fast I got this done? Maybe, lol. But check it out for yourselves and let me know if I was right. So what am I talking about? I just became the proud owner of

SELLING ON EBAY

2012-02-04T18:35:00.000-08:00

The Author of this post is Solomon DejesusI have been using my 4g wireless internet to make some extra money. I have always liked to shop on Ebay and have found some really cool things, but I got inspired last month to start selling on Ebay. My sister, who knows how much I love it, gave me a “Ebay for Dummies” book. I chuckled when she gave it to me because I know everything about buying things

Getting Back in the Game

2012-02-04T16:28:00.000-08:00

Hello all! So it looks to be about 3 years since I last blogged, lol. Unfortunately my entrepreneurial journey was sidetracked once I got a job in the offline world. Work and kids and life in general took over. But I am back now, and with a vengeance! You see, my interest in making money online never went away, and every now and then, I would scour the internet for information on affiliate

Internet Income Success

2009-01-01T12:56:00.000-08:00

Having jumped into the business of making money online, I've discovered that the single most important factor to success is gaining visibility for your website. Obviously, no matter what you're selling or promoting, you can't close the deal if you don't have people visiting your site. Getting that much needed traffic can be done on your own, but it takes lots of time and energy just to learn

New blog site

2008-11-16T16:31:00.000-08:00

Well I finally did it! I signed up at JustHost.com and am moving this blog to its own domain. The site is called "Guides to Internet Income" and this blog will be continued there. Just click here to follow me over.My plan is to make the site a place where you can get all the information you could ever need to make money online. There will be free 'how to guides' on setting up your own

Learning never ends

2008-11-10T07:53:00.001-08:00

In order to get a money making website online, you have to either know HTML or hire someone to create a site for you. Since I am attempting to do this on my own, the learning curve for me is very steep. I don't mind, though, because once this baby's up and running, I can say - I did it my way!Went out and bought a book to learn how to create scripts. It's not as hard as you would imagine, even

Delays, delays, delays

2008-11-03T16:07:00.001-08:00

Have had to put this project on the back burner recently because real life beckons. Had to take my 16 year old to take her driver's license test this morning and I am proud to say, not only did she pass, she passed with a perfect score! She's such a rock star, lol.Still reading, reading, reading. Learning tidbits here and there, but there is also a lot of fluff. I'm thinking that since I have

Using your own domain

2008-10-31T09:14:00.000-07:00

I was researching transferring this blog to my website when I discovered that Blogger will let you point your domain to your blog so it looks as if it's being hosted on its own site! The benefits of at least looking like your host is on its own domain is that advertisers prefer that to blogs that are maintained on free sites such as Blogger. So I was all excited about this little discovery when I

Starting to take shape

2008-10-30T08:26:00.000-07:00

One thing that makes sense out of everything I've read so far is that at some point, you've got to stop reading and take some action. And since I've decided that in the long run, it would be better for income purposes if this blog was on its own domain, I did a little research yesterday on some hosting companies. I think I'll go with InMotion. The price is really reasonable for the services they

Information overload

2008-10-28T09:08:00.000-07:00

If I'm ever going to make money online, I've got to learn to focus! I've got all these guides, a lot of them with great ideas. The problem is, I read about something new to try and get all gung ho on doing it. Then while I'm online implementing what I've learned, I run into something new that gets me going and I fail to complete what I originally had set out to do, lol.Focus, focus, focus, Maria

Getting organized

2008-10-26T10:39:00.000-07:00

Well, I've taken my first steps towards organizing all the information I've acquired regarding how to make money on the internet. I bought one of those portable USB sticks and am beginning to sift through all those ebooks and programs I've accumulated over the years. For now, I'm just downloading the ebooks that I feel really provide good content - ebooks I think I can actually learn something

What to do with all this information

2008-10-23T14:10:00.001-07:00

Real world break to pop in and post.Since I started this blog a year or so ago, I've never stopped taking in information on how to make money on the internet. I've got so much information, I don't know where to start or even how to organize it. And everytime I get out here on the internet and do a little surfing, I come across even more information that I can't help but add to my already huge

I'm baaaaack :-)

2008-10-22T08:42:00.001-07:00

Well it's been over a year now since I got my medical records review job, and now that I'm all settled in, I think I'll take up my quest to make money online and start posting to this blog again.I temporarily shut down my site to focus on my new job, but kept the domain name and plan on getting it up and running again eventually. In the meantime, I've got a lot of reading to do. If there's

This blog is outta here :-)

2007-06-19T15:02:00.000-07:00

Since having your blog on your own domain opens up a lot more opportunities for a blogger to make money, I figured it was high time I make the switch. I've been getting some great ideas from the Affiliate Project X ebook and I'm excited to put the info to use. There's a lot of work ahead of me as I'm going to have to re-vamp my website and re-establish my blog's page rank but I'm glad to have

Affiliate Project X

2007-06-07T14:43:00.000-07:00

After dabbling in the free methods of making money online, I decided to check out some of those guides you see advertised all over the internet claiming they'll show you how to make the big bucks. Some of these programs are really expensive and I was, of course, a bit leery. I mean, who wants to be scammed, right? But since I've made some pocket change with sponsored posts, ads, etc, I decided

Save some money

2007-06-07T09:19:00.000-07:00

Here's a cool site that can save ya'll some money on pretty much everything under the sun. It's called CouponChief.com and you can find great deals on items from your favorite internet or brick and mortar stores. Into electronics? Check out their Best Buy, CompUSA, or HP pages. Looking for something a bit more fun? They've got a Music & DVD's page, a Travel & Luggage section, and my personal

Here's a little money maker

2007-05-11T07:40:00.000-07:00

Well I've signed on with AdBux. It's a program that pays you to click on a link and view a site for 30 seconds. Unlike some programs which pay you .0003 cents per click, AdBux pays you a penny per click. I know it's not much, but it adds up quickly.

I've Been Tagged!

2007-05-08T14:04:00.000-07:00

I've been tagged by Rob at The Million Dollar Experiment Down Under to give five reasons why I blog. I don't know who started the game, but it's a fun and creative way to get links back to your blog. If you get tagged, expect to write a post giving your reasons for blogging, include a link back to the person who tagged you, then tag 5 other bloggers.So why do I blog? 1) I can gain traffic and

An alternative to Google's NonSense

2007-05-05T14:16:00.000-07:00

Well since I got the boot from AdSense, I'm on the hunt for another way to monetize my blog and website. I came across an ad network called Kontera and their product is called ContentLink. Like other forms of contextual advertising, Kontera's software is able to crawl the pages of your site and deliver ads that should be of interest to your readers. These ads show up on your site as in line

So long Google No Sense

2007-05-01T14:14:00.000-07:00

Looks like I've been cast into the sea of unsuspecting and unenlightened bloggers/webmasters who have somehow angered the powers that be over at Google's advertising department and have had their AdSense accounts terminated. What a joke. They don't tell you why, they don't allow you to inquire, and they keep the money in your account. Must be nice to be able to arbitrarily axe your publishers

Since we've been working so hard on making money online, I think it's about time to take a little break and have some fun. I found this cool little service that can add some pizazz to your blog. It's called Fliptrack.Fliptrack is a free service that allows you to create music videos using your own pictures. The site provides you with a catalog of music (which they own the rights to, so no

I recently came across a paid opportunity to review an article entitled "27 + 1 Tips for Building and Maintaining a Blog Audience." Since many of my readers have blogs themselves, I jumped at the chance. The article was written and posted by Jarrod Hunt on the Sponsored Reviews.com blog. He divides the tips into general categories then goes into detail about each one. It's a long article, but

Having signed up for Tik Tik Cash awhile back, I thought I'd give a report on the program. This site allows you to earn money by reading e-mails, completing offers, playing games, shopping online, etc. I started out by completing a few offers and surveys back in December. Some of those are still pending. At this point in time, my account looks like this:Pending : $ 187.0Approved : $ 16.37

2007-03-30T16:06:00.000-07:00

I was given the opportunity to do a sponsored review on The Secret. It piqued my interest because the description mentioned that it was featured on Oprah, Larry King Live and the Ellen DeGeneres show. It also included a blurb about how everyone is talking about it. Well, never the one to be left out of the loop (I've never heard about The Secret before) I decided to surf the internet and see

Google and Pay Per Action Advertising

2007-03-30T07:58:00.000-07:00

Have you heard the buzz? Google is adding pay per action to their advertising program AdWords. As the name implies, advertisers will now be able to create ad campaigns for which they will only have to pay when a user completes an activity which they specify (ie. making a purchase, completing a form, signing up for a newsletter, etc). Advertisers using this program will no longer have to worry

Say I'm surfing my blogroll or the blogosphere in general ok. If, at the end of my visit I purposefully check out the ads on the page, find one I'm interested in and click it, would you consider that click fraud? My personal opinion is, I like what I read on the site, I want to support the blog's owner, I take a minute to show it by checking out one of the ads.What ya'll think?BTW, shout out to

The added bonus is, I get paid to post! It's not much, I've made about a buck over there but considering

2006-10-16T07:49:00.000-07:00

I managed to get a lot done on my website over the weekend. I'm finally happy with the template and got the rollover effects on my navigation bar working. Have started adding content and it's very time consuming. Still shooting for the end of this month for completion.On another note, this blog has gotten more traffic since I signed up with Blog Soldiers. I haven't come across too many blogs

Blog Soldiers

2006-10-13T14:59:00.000-07:00

I came across this ad on another site for Blog Soldiers. It's a way to get traffic to your site. And let's face it, no traffic means no profit. So I signed up. I have to admit that I did see a jump in my page views. No change to my bottom line, but more eyeballs. Hey you out there, stop and say hello.If any "surfers" have blogs or sites about making money and want to exchange links, email me or

The Wonders of the Internet

2006-10-12T10:06:00.000-07:00

About a month ago, I realized we needed a second income. I have a Bachelor's degree in Nursing but have been out of the rat race for over 10 years. Well, I worked awhile doing laser treatments last year, but anyway. I went online to craigslist and checked the jobs under the medical section. One caught my eye - "medical records reviewer . . . . after training will work from home." How perfect

Trudging along

2006-10-10T11:05:00.000-07:00

Still working on my template. For some reason, my nav buttons disappear when I preview the page in a browser. I think it has something to do with Explorer not liking java scripts. Hope I can figure it out because I really like the nav bar. It's got rollover effects and drop down menus. More importantly, it frees up my left and right columns for ads.Working on it every day. I think it'll be

The Making of an Internet Entrepreneur

2006-10-07T18:05:00.000-07:00

Since I've narrowed my income producing method to one particular endeavor, I've decided to rename my blog. Better describes what I'll probably be blogging about for now.Still working on my webpage template. Added a navigation bar with cool little rollover effects and drop down menus. Took me the better part of this morning to get it done, and I'm not even sure it'll work right since there are

Building a site from scratch

2006-10-06T14:38:00.000-07:00

Teaching myself webpage design - hypertext markup language, cascading style sheets, java scripts, etc, all the things you have to know to create a website. It hasn't been easy and I've had to start over a number of times, but I've managed to create a template for the basic layout of my site. I'm sure I'll have to tweak it once I start adding content but it's a step forward.Whoever said making

Another avenue

2006-10-05T09:26:00.000-07:00

I added the Google search bar today. It's another way to monetize your site. I think the way it works is, if you use it to search from my site and then click on one of the featured ads in the search results, I get a little sumthin sumthin. Go ahead and try it!Oh and thanks for your support, lol.

Building a Website

2006-10-04T12:51:00.000-07:00

So I'm trying to build a website. It's very difficult and I wish I had the money to just hire someone to do it for me. It doesn't need to be fancy or anything, just basic and clean. Anyone out there in the biz looking for work? I can pay you from my AdSense account which is up to a whopping two dollars, lol. It might be more if I worked on getting traffic, but this other site has most of my

Just a little frustrated

2006-10-02T09:27:00.000-07:00

So over the weekend, I decided to upgrade to Blogger beta because it's supposed to have added features which make tweaking your webpage easier - not. I lost all the links in my sidebar, lost my guestbook, even initially lost my AdSense ads. I have to re-do all of them and I am not a happy camper.On a brighter note, I've come up with an idea for a website that I'm really excited about. I've

Earnings Update

2006-09-29T15:39:00.000-07:00

A whole, wait for it . . . . . . . 16 cents! Woo hoo, better than nothing!Have to read the fine print, but I'm thinking about giving away a couple copies of The Rich Jerk ebook to people who want to come along for the ride. Would be more fun to go through this in real time with someone else. Any takers? Prefer a stay at home mom like myself who is really interested in working the program. I

And the winner is . . . Clickbank!

2006-09-28T12:30:00.000-07:00

After checking out the top four affiliate networks that RJ recommended, I ended up signing on with only one. Clickbank was the easiest to sign up for and also seemed to match my site content the best. Commission Junction, BeFree and Linkshare seemed to have more commercial and brand name companies who just wouldn't fare well on my little website (and if they don't fare well, I make no money). I

The Rich Jerk Walkthrough - Chapter 1

2006-09-27T13:07:00.000-07:00

So this Rich Jerk dude says it worked for him, let's see if it'll work for me. I'm going to go through his chapters one by one, implementing his methods as I go. Let's see if "RJ's" promises ring true. In his opening lines, he says, "You can begin using these strategies for immediate results, with minimal effort." Yeah? we'll see.Chapter 1A - Creating an Affiliate Website that Sells Like Crazy[

The Rich Jerk

2006-09-26T11:50:00.000-07:00

If you've ever researched making money on the internet, you've probably come across "The Rich Jerk" ebook. I downloaded it, read it, and am posting a short review:Though the author's writing style may not be suited to everyone's taste (he really does live up to his title), the book delivers very informative internet marketing strategies that have been tried and tested. You'll learn how to

Still Tweaking, lol.

2006-09-25T14:51:00.000-07:00

The thing is, I'm a bit of a perfectionist. If you've been here before, you'll notice the new colors, much more pleasing to the eye. Probably going to make a few changes to the links as well. Once I'm satisfied with that, I'll get back to the business of making money ;-) Oh, I also added a guestbook.Get free web tools here
