moneymaking

Well I am looking forward to Christmas with my parents. I haven’t been updating my Blogs as much as usual. Tended to be busy with other things. So as far as money making goes that has slowed down. I will be back focusing on that after Christmas. So much going on at this time of year and not enough time to get everything done as much as I would like.

The important thing for me is spending time with family they are precious and that is where we all should be focusing our attention on.

Money isn’t everything though we do need enough to get by this time of year which can be expensive for everyone. I just hope everyone has a wonderful time and keeps within their budget. Don’t spend more than you can afford which apart from Online Business Opportunites should also apply to every other aspect of our lives too.

If not you will regret it once the festivities are over and you struggle to keep up with paying those credit card bills. It is indeed a ‘credit crunch’ at the moment so we all have to be wary and more careful of when and how we spend our money whether online or in the shops.

Ok after a relaxing weekend I am into a new week of earning online. There always seems to be so much to catch up on at the beginning of a new week. Hopefully this week will be more profitable. I am trying to make my time spent online as profitable as possible. I have had a sort out and got around to finally ditching those programs that are too slow and frankly a waste of time. I love variety and to earn from different multiple income streams is great. I love to use Triond to get paid for publishing pictures and articles. I also love to get Paid To Blog and also I like some ptr/ptc programs. There is plenty of choice out there but it is doing and earning from something I actually enjoy is the main thing. 

Well my beginning of a new month did not start very well. I have had several of my favourites sites gone bad and one I had requested payment from (ptcdepot.com) was supposed to have paid me but the earnings though deducted from my account never showed up in my Paypal Account. Several e-mails later and no response and non the wiser. All my payment info was correct on the date that I had ’supposedly’ been paid so I had everything correct my side. A nuisance as it had seemed such a good site with a low payout and not too low on the clicks. It really gets tiresome spending time at a site reaching payout and then never receiving your earnings. I tend to be allot more careful and cautious of joining any site now unless I can see a few payment proofs. I don’t wish to waste my time on unreliable,non paying, scam sites if I can help it. I have been ’stung’ enough times and apart from myself I don’t wish other people to waste their time either.

Well hopefully things will improve and of course at least we have Christmas to look forward to. I enjoy the time spent with my family and it is good to have a break from all my earning online stuff.

Ok I know you can earn good money from Get Paid To Sign Up Offers but personally I don’t find it a nice way to earn money. I don’t enjoy earning this way as I hate all the spam and deluge of mail that comes from signing up for things. Not only that I usually find that I spend ages filling in all sorts of info and go through it all properly with the right info then after all that I don’t end up ever getting credited for it. Allot of offers want you to put in a phone number. No way! I get enough through e-mail and also through the door without giving out my number and also having that abused by having allot of ’sales’ calls to deal with. They are disturbing and a nuisance and always tend to come at the worst time i.e when you are just sitting down to dinner or watching a favourite program and I don’t like to be disturbed in this way. My phone I prefer to keep private so I can talk to friends and relatives and not for what I call ‘junk’ callers.

So for me it is not a good way to get paid and can often be a waste of time. Basically it is a way for people to get hold of your personal details and then you will certainly get disturbed. 

Some people enjoy it and earn well with it but what works well for one may not work for someone else. For me this way of earning money is not one I use or wish to use. 

I wish all my fellow bloggers and readers who celebrate Thanksgiving to have a wonderful time. Even though this is something that is not celebrated in my country I wish it was. It is a good opportunity for people to get together with family have a nice meal and be thankful for what they have.

Anyway many people will be taking this day off from their online activities to celebrate this Thanksgiving Day. So I thought it fitting that I should mention something about it post wise on my Blog. 

So do have a happy safe and wonderful day everyone. Meanwhile I will be waiting until Christmas Day to get my Turkey Dinner with all the trimmings!

That is when I shall be with my family and hope to have a wonderful time then.

 Ok that is my post done for the day and tomorrow will be back to make another post to do with making money online.

Take care everyone and goodbye until tomorrow!

Ok I am getting a little sick and tired of sites changing terms or changing owners or both. This has happened allot lately and usually the members are the last to hear of anything that is going behind the scenes. The worse thing is when payout is suddenly changed to a larger amount when you are just about to request your earnings. Members who are honest and work hard expect to be paid for their efforts and not have things constantly changed behind their backs. Some perfectly good sites have changed ownership for the worse to people who can’t keep them running properly, as well as suddenly deleting and banning perfectly honest members without warning or explanation when they ask any questions.
There are some honest and reputable owners out there thankfully but it is the scams and those that end up going bad that needs to be avoided.

If I join a site I expect to be paid and to be kept informed of any changes as well being treated with politeness,courtesy and respect if I do have questions I need answering. I have had things I have emailed a site owner and never got any reply. This is always bad news as the reputation of the site as being trustworthy can soon disappear rapidly. After all if there is no admin support then there is little chance of it being able to be a successful paying site and will eventully disappear without trace.

We need honest, paying sites to earn from and luckily in my search for paying programs I have now found a few. Proof of a paying site is when I actually get paid. That is what I go by. If I can see recent payment proofs from other people then I will consider investing some time in that site myself.

I see many of these sites saying you can earn from this kind of work. But you should not be joining a site where you have to pay a membership fee. Why pay to do something you are going to be getting paid for?

You should be able to get this kind of work free without having to pay any money out after all allot of them charge anything up to $60. There is no way I want to risk this kind of money for something that maybe no good.It is always risky to pay a so called ‘membership’ fee upfront. There is no guarantee that you will get any work usually all you get is access to a database of companies which you could probably find for free if you did a google search.

So be very wary of paying anything upfront there are many types of work at home opportunities that won’t cost you anything and paying anything is always a gamble as to whether you will actually be able to earn money from the info you get access to.

The free earners are the best. That way you have not lost anything if you don’t manage to make any money. 

Paid To Read And Click Sites are a way to earn some extra cash. They will not make you rich but it is a good way to get cheap advertising for your own sites as well earning a little bit extra by clicking on e-mails/banners etc.

Just be wary of those ‘new’ sites starting up that claim to pay you $$$’s per e-mail. These sites are not sustainable,there is no way anyone can pay $50 to each member for clicking on an e-mail or banner when the cost for an advertiser is only a few dollars.

If it seems to good to be true it probably is. I check a site out thoroughly before I join it. I check what the cost of the ad is to an advertiser and what they pay per click to make sure that it is not paying more out to members than the cost of sending the ad in the first place. 

I also check to see what the payout level is. I generally like to stick with around the $5 payout mark so it won’t take me too long before I can reach payout so that I can see if it pays me.

Also I check to see if there is any payment proofs, if there is no payment proof page on the site itself I will do a Google search to see what I can find out about it.

There are many of these kind of sites starting up and many disappearing or closing down so it is good to check a site out thoroughly before you join it. No one wants to waste time on scam sites. I have been caught out before so now I do check a site out thoroughly before I will consider giving it a try. 

It is better to belong to a few steady earners and payers that you can easily manage and spend some time on regular basis. Only take on what you have time for. Most sites have some sort of rules on how active you need to be so do check carefully as every site varies on how much you need to click/read so that you don’t get deleted.

Anway there are a few recommendations here of some good honest sustainable and paying programs which you can check out.

There are many sites that will pay you to write your own articles. But I must admit I do like Triond.com. This will pay you for your own articles you write as well as photos and even your own videos.

You get paid on views which is great. I use Traffic Exchanges to help bring views to the stuff I have had published through Triond. There is no referral url so it is a case of just going to the website itself and signing up there. Be creative and write things that are interesting or matter to you. Maybe you have bought and tried a product that is supposed to work and doesn’t so write an artcle about it. As long as it is your own article and you have not put it anyway else like on another Blog then you earn with it and get paid from Triond.com. They pay monthly by Paypal at an easy minimum of $1.

Even if you can’t think of anything to write about you could always get creative by posting your own photos or posting your own videos.

I find it gives me a nice break from my other earning online programs that I am involved in.

I have found traffic exchanges a great way to help increase visitors to my website and my Blogs. There are better results with manual exchanges as at least people are actually looking at your site. Auto Traffic Exchanges mean that people can just leave it running to rack up lots of credits while they are off doing something else.

So for me the manual ones are the better and the more effective way to gain traffic and visitors as well as referrals for programs you are promoting. I have found myself that consistently surfing a few a day really helps. I use Firefox which is a multi tabbed browser so I can open several at one time login to each one and surf and click to the next on. That way I am surfing several at one time giving more unique visitors.

There are tons of manual surfs around and there is no way you can join them all so select a few and stick with them. Surfing consistently is the key. It takes people many times of viewing a page before they will think about checking it out further.

They do and can work for you effectively if you give it time. There are a few good ones and seeing as I am discussing this subject I am providing a link here that is worth looking at.
