Adbuddy

Adbuddy is a pretty new pay to click site. It is similar to many of the other sites of this type. It has between one and five ads a day to click and pays one cent per ad which both you and your referrals click. The minimum payout amount is $10 and they pay out once a week. They have an option to upgrade membership and they have auctions to buy unreferred members.

Global Cash Clicks

Due to winning the monthly competition, having lots of banners to click and having done a few paid signups I did rather well when I cashed out of Global Cash Clicks and have received $9.52 from them this month.

bux.to

Bux.to is a pay to click site which is very similar to Adbux. You get paid 1 cent per click and 1 cent for every click that your referrals make. You have the option of upgrading your membership which increases your pay per click to 0.0125 per click (both yours and your referrals) and you are guaranteed a minimum of 20 ads a day. This means that you could earn at least 25 cents a day. Membership also includes 5 free referrals and costs $59 for a year. My calculations make out that you would have to click every day for 2/3rds of the year to make back your money. If you have active referrals you could make it back more quickly. You may also get cash bonuses if your referrals purchase referrals themselves.

More Adbux News

Adbux is trying another new advertising scheme from the beginning of next month. Remember to read teh latest newsletter (which is on their forum) as it explains all about how it will work. It does involve members updating their profile pages so you need to do this before the end of the month.

Adpaid

Adpaid is a pay to read website. They send out regular emails (about 6 a day) which pay you 1/3rd of a cent for clicking a link and viewing the resulting adverts for 30 seconds. They also have other opportunities to earn on their site including pay to click and cashback. It may seem that the earning potential is low, but it is a long standing and reliable company so you know that you will definately be paid. Also if they are not offering too much youknow they are not in danger of not being capable of paying up.

Get Paid to Blog

Review Me is a website which will pay you to write articles for your blog. They pay various amounts depending on the advertiser and their requirements. The amount that you get paid also depends on your blog, what it is about, how much traffic it gets etc. To find out more, please click the logo below.

Dreamclix

Dreamclix is a pay to click site. It is similar to other PTC sites as in order to earn money you have to click a link and view the site which pops up for 30 seconds. It does tend to pay less than some sites (averaging 1/3rd cent per click), but there are usually about 6 links to click daily. You can earn 40% of anything your referrals earn.

My Blog Interview

I was approached by bloginterviewer.com to see if I wanted an interview done and published on their blog. Well i agreed and if you would like a chance to get to know more about me then please take a look by clicking here.

mmmtalk contest

MMMTalk is running a competition for August which gives every member a chance of winning a share of a monetary prize. Make sure that you join the site before the end of this month a leave some posts so that you get a chance to take part.

Clixmedia

Clixmedia is a relatively new PTC site. It pays $0.01 per advert that you click and view for 30 seconds. You also get half a cent for every advert that your referrals click. They are currently running a promotion for advertisers. At the moment advertisers will get twice the amount of clicks than they pay for.

Payments

Well it is that time of the month again where I cash in earnings from all of the sites that I have earned money from. I have just a rough calculation of what it looks like I will be paid by the end of the month and unfortunately it looks like I will not reach my monthly target. I have been working hard but have slacked off this week because I have been concerned about the flooding and loss of water in this area. It looks like we will be lucky and escape (despite being positioned between a river and canal). I will be working hard to reach my target still so if anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it. Thank you.

Adbux

Yet again there are big changes at Adbux. Members have complained about the new advertising system and it has been abandoned and gone back to the original system. They aim to replace it with a system which they say will be fairer to everyone. I still think that this website is going to grow and be a great earner for all of its members - as long as they stick with it.

I have made £1000!

I am so thrilled that I have made my first £1000 since I started this blog in February. This isn't profit but it is still a great milestone. My profit is currently £626.21 and so my next milstone is to have £1000 in profit. I am unsure as to whether to reinvest a lot of my earnings. If I am truly doubling then I should be reinvesting it all but it is so nice to have the extra money at the moment.

A New Way to Earn

MMMTalk has just monetised the forum. This means that you can earn money via Google Adwords. If an ad is clicked on a post that you started or one you commented on you will get a percentage of the advertising revenue sent to your Google adsense account. All the details can be found here.

New Links Page

My links list was getting so long that I have decided to move them to a new links page. I was worried about how messy this blog was looking so hopefully this will help and I will be happier to ad more links to the list as it will not make the page so messy. I am sorry that it means taking them off the home page but if anyone would like to swap site reviews so that they get back on the home page for a bit, please let me know.

Win $2500!!!!

Over at Ashwin’s blog, you will find one crazy blog owner!! You can win $2500!! To enter just copy this text and paste it in your blog!! But hurry, this competition will not last long! So get posting! This sounds amazing - I hope he gets lots of links to make it worth his while.

Pure Profile

I am still earning money from Pure Profile. It is a website which pays you for doing surveys and searches. The amount that you get paid varies - if you are not elligible for the survey you still get paid something. I log in each day and there tend to be new opportunities to earn money ever other day, although some days there are several surveys. You can also earn money from referrals. For each referral that earns £5 you will earn £1 - you can earn up to £5 per referral.

I got paid $3

I recently wrote an article about being paid $2 for posting a link to an ebook. I am very pleased to say that I got paid last night with a bonus thrown in for promoting it on a forum as well as my website. I thought that was most generous, thank you Pedro.

Clixsense - The Daddy of PTC?

There are so many Pay to Click sites out there and there seem to be new ones appearing each day. As soon as Adbux launched everyone seeme dto want to follow suit. I even considered whether having such a site which bring in a nice income for me. There is one PTC site which stands out over the rest. It is professional and has been around longer than most of the others sites. They pay at least 1 cent per click which is a lot more than most other similar sites. They seem to have more ads each day than any of the other PTC sites I am a member of. There are a few disadvatages, however. They only pay by cheque which means that I have to incur a bank charge every time I cash one, plus they take a while to reach me. they charge $3 per cheque. They do not pay you for each click your referral does, like a lot of similar sites do, but just a bonus if they upgrade their membership. Despite the disadvantages, I still think that it is worth joining Clixsense.

Make Some Quick Cash

Pedro Sardinha is making a great offer on his blog. He is giving away a free ebook. The book is called How to Instantly profit From Your Blog - sounds tempting doesn't it? The book is called The Ultimate Guide to Your Easylist. the best thing about the book is that the website is giving $2 (by Paypal) to everyone that promotes it in their blog (just like I am!). All you have to do is write a quick review like this and then submit the URL and your Paypal ID to the website by way of a comment on this blog article.

International Offers

International Offers is a website where you can earn money by registering with websites. As the name suggests it is open to all countries. You can also increase your earnings by clicking banner advertisements. You can draw out your earnings either into Paypal or egold. The minimum withdrawal amount is $0.10 for egold and $1 for Paypal.

How to spot a Scam Website

It can be quite tricky to know whether a website is a scam or not. There are a huge variety of money making websites out there all claiming to be better than the rest. If you are new to making money online it can be confusing to know which ones to trust. I would recommend that you start off by only joining sites which are free to join. Then at least you have not invested any money in the site - only time. Also read forums and blogs about making money online and look for proof that people have been paid by the sites. You will soon find people that you trust online and you can use their recommendations to help you. A good rule of thumb is that sites which look too good to be true usually are!

MMM Talk

MMMTalk is a great place to hang out. the forum is new but now have over 300 threads on it and over 1200 posts which is good for someting which is only a few months old. There are competitions running on the site and there will soon be an opportunity to be paid if your post is popular. There are a variety of subjects that you can chat about but as the site is new, you can make suggestions about new areas that you think should be included and chances are that the section will appear. So please check it out today and leave a few posts, support my friend who is the administrator and please make useful suggestions for improvements.

Blogging Ads

I have ecently been introduced to a new paid to post website. It is called blogging ads. I have only just had my website approved so have not yet been offered any opportunities to blog for money. The site states that you tend to get more opportunities ta the beginning of the month so I will wait and see what happens. The site pays weekly by paypal. Your blog must be at least 3 months old, cached by Google and not contain any questionable content. They say that most postings pay $5.

Linkworth - Much more to it than I thought

I have just come across a fantastic article about Linkworth - explaining all of the functions that it has. If you have joined or are inteested in joining I would recommend reading it - as it is all explained much better than I could do it! the article is part of the blog Text Link Buzz.

squidoo

I came across Squidoo last night. It is a site where you can create a small site about yourself and publish articles. You can put links on it so it is a great place to put links to websites that you want to promote on. I am pretty sure that you can put any URL's on the site including referrals links. Please check out my site. Thank you.

Want More Than One Cent Per Click?

There are a lot of new pay to click websites around and many offereing one cent per click. However, you may feel that you want more than this. Global Cash Clicks can offer more than this. They do have a pay to click section of their site worth from $0.01 per click. In addition the have a pay to signup section where you can earn considerably more money. They also run competitions which could help to earn a bit extra, I won $5 last month!

Want Cheap Referrals?

I am a member of several sites which are offering very good deals for pay to signup. What this means is that members can signup to a website and get paid for it. The sites charge roughly $0.20 per signup which is really cheap. I have listed the sites below:

Snow Clicks $0.20 per signup
Goldiggers $0.10 per signup
Dogclicks $0.20 per signup

Of course these signups are not guaranteed to be active. But I have found them very useful when there are referrals contests or if you get paid for referrals.

Adbux - new Advertising System

Adbux has released it's new advertising system today. This means that advertisers can actually specify which country they woudl like to target with their adverts. This is great for advertisers as they get more control over who sees their adverts. It is also suppose dto help members get more adverts to click. I think this will really depend on the country that the main advertisers reside in. I have found so far, that the amount of adverts I have had available to me has not changed. However, my referrals seem to be earning me a lot more, which is great. Obviously it is very early days but I decided to buy some more referrals from Adbux today as I feel that it will make the site more sucessful and provide more links to click for all members.

Website Review : The Million Dollar Experiment Down Under

I have just been reading a great blog. The Million Dollar Experiment Down Under is a really inspiring blog for anyone wanting to make money online. I have only recently revisited it and was thrilled to see how well they are doing with their project and how sucessful they are becoming. It is full of detailed articles explaining how to make money online. I especially like the article It's not that hard to make $100 US dollars in one month part time, great inspiration for anyone plodding away trying to make a few extra dollars online. If you want an inspirational read I would recommend taking a look.

I won another contest!

I would just like to say thank you to Roberta at Earsucker.com for running the blog contest to win a Suzanne vega CD - as I won it! I have hardly ever won any contests, but this is the second that I have won this month. I found out about the competition from the website blog-contests, please see my article about them for more details.

Linkworth

I have recently discovered a site called What it does is provides you with some code which you can wrap around specific sections of your website or blog. Within that sections it will then choose keywords to become links to advertisers websites. The amount that you get paid varies between websites depending on a number of factors such as page rank and alexa ranking. There is a minimum payout amount of $25.

Snowclicks contests

Snowclicks has 3 great contests at the moment. They have a monthly referrals contest with a prize of $5. They have a purchase contest with 20 prizes ranging in value from $0.50 to $12. There are some cash prizes and some prizes of advertising on the site, such as membership upgrades and banner ads. The third contest they have is to win banner credits. It is a draw and you can earn tickets for the draw by referring members, buying advertising and clicking paid links.

Blogging - Where to start

I have been asked by a few people where to start when blogging. What topic to do it on etc. My tip is to make sure that you do it on a topic you know somethinga bout and one you are keen on. It is tempting to choose a subject which you think will attract lost of traffic, do well in search engines or attract highpaying advertisers. The problem with this is that if your blog subject is not something your are enthusiatic about or something you do not know much about this will come across in your posts and will make it less attractive to both visitors and advertisers.

Selling Links

I have decided to have a go at selling links on my site. I feel that my Google page rank of 4 and my Alexa rating of 617,023 are high enough now to be attractive to some advertisers. I am looking to sell banners ads at the top of the page (either above of below the adsense adverts or instead) at the bottom of the page instead of the adsense advert and also text link ads in my featured ads section. I am also happy to do reviews of sites for money. If anyone is interested and would like to make me a reasonable offer I would be happy to consider it. Thank you.

Blogsvertise Changes

Blogsvertise has made some exciting changes to its pay to blog site. They have expanded their opportunities to include blog homepage text ads, banner ads and video ads. This means that there are opportunities to earn money monthly as well as the one off payments offered for articles. You do have to tick the appropriate boxes in your profile if you want to be offered these opportunities (you will have the chance to accept or decline any opportunities).

Website Review : Doubler's Den

If you are a doubler or even just earning money online you could be interested in visiting Doubler's Den. This is a forum specifically targeted at doublers. In case you do not know what a doubler is - it is someone trying to make a million by starting with a penny and doubling it 28 times. There are lots of ideas on the website on how to achieve your goal from other doublers. There are links to blogs of other doublers which can be inspirational for anyone who is trying to earn extra money. There are also hints and tips. The great thing is that it is a place where doublers can meet together to seek inspiration and to help each other. It is a very friendly community and I have learnt a lot and made a lot of friends. I would highly recommend a visit. If you have already visited the forum and have posted 10 times of more then you are eligible to enter their competition. All you have to do is to write a 200+ word review of the site and you will be entered into a draw for at least $15. Make sure that you read the full terms and conditions before you enter.

Changes to Review Me

Review Me is a paid to blog site. It has just announced some exciting changes. Firstly they will be allowing advertisers to write their own articles - this means that you will still get paid for putting an article on your site but will not have to write it yourself. Tis is good for advertisers as they will be able to make sure that all of the information they want is included in the article.

MMMTalk Forum

Just a quick reminder about the mmmtalk forums competition. You will have to get in quick to win. The person who posts the most during the month of July will receive $25 and there is also a second prize of $10. There could be additional prizes if the amount of posts is significantly high. It is a great forum where you can post on a variety of topics and the moderators are very easy going. (I should know, I am one!)

Blog contests

I recently wrote a post about blog-contests.com. They have just changed their website to make it much easier to submit your blog contests. You can apparately now submit them yourself, whereas before it was a blog and the admin had to submit it on your behalf. Hopefully this will mean contests will be posted much more quickly and there will be more of them.

Pure Profile

Pure Profile is a survey site. All you have to do it sign up and login regularly to see if there are any surveys for you. Sometimes they have one survey, today they had two for me. They also have paid search opportunities. The payment varies - the survey payment will be a very small amount if you do not qualify, but if you do qualify you can earn quite a bit depending on the length of the survey.

Great Forum

I have just come across this very interesting forum. It allows you to sell advertising space and to exchange reviews and links. There are also people offering to pay for reviews of their blogs. It is certainly well worth a look if you are trying to make money out of your blog.

Free Fivers payment

I have just been paid for the first time by Free Fivers. It seemed to take ages to be paid, but was well worth the wait - I have been paid over £58. This was for registering on some websites, clicking links and cashback for some purchases.

Blogsvertise

I have just been paid $15 by Blogsvertise for 2 paid articles that I wrote for them. They email when they have an opportunity for you so you do not need to keep visiting the site hoping to catch the opportunity to write an article, like you have to on some other similar sites.

Adbux Payment

I have just received my fourth payment from Adbux. I have now earned over $40 from them now. I really think that upgrading my membership really helped my earnings. I also bought referrals which helps too. I paid quite a lot for my referrals and have not yet made my money back but I am hoping that once the new advertising system comes in (should be very soon!) then there will be more advertisers, more adverts for both me and my referrals to click and lots more money to earn!

I have been paid by Smorty

Again I have been paid by Smorty. They pay for sponsored blog articles. The site has just improved by emailing you when a new opportunity comes along. However, I have found that by checking the available opportunities each day I often find them before the email comes out, which means I get more chance of being able to write the article before all users are aware and the places may all be filled.

I won $7.77

Thanks to ryan444123.com as I won one of the prizes in their competition as mentioned in my previous blog article.

AW Surveys

I have heard a few negative comments about this site and although I have been paid once I have become suspicious since claiming 3 payments last week and not receiving any of them. I sent an email to the admin to ask why and got the following response :

I see back on 6/19 we sent a payment via paypal to you for $50. Since then it appears that almost all of the accounts created have been fraudulent and those payments have been denied.

This means that they are claiming that over 200 of my referrals have been fraudulant. I agree, that some of them could have been, but it is hard to believe that many would be. Please also take notice of the warning in the comment on this article about them.

Blog contests

I have just come across a fantastic blog contests website. It lists competitions which are available to blogger or have been launched by bloggers. There are a lot of contests listed on there including some with cash prizes - two being $100. There are other prizes such as books, site reviews and gift certificates. It is well worth a look.

How to Earn Some Extra Fivers

Do you want a quick way to earn a few pounds? Why not try these ideas:

1. If you have a website or blog apply to Bucks 4 Banners - they pay you £10 to join and £5 per month for keeping 3 banners on your website.

2. Join Quidco and through the link on the site do a daily search on Kelkoo and the High Street Web. You will earn £5 in a month.

3. Join International Offers and signup to some of the offers and websites and click some banners. You should easily make some extra pounds.

4. If you have a website or blog join up to a site that pays you to do articles. You should get a minimum of $5 per article and so just 2 articles a month will bring in an extra £5.

5. See if you have anything in the house you could sell on ebay it is easy to make some quick cash even for a new seller.

Just a Thought

Just a Thought is a blog which relates the writer, David Woon's thoughts on life. From his articles he hopes to inspire and cause his readers to reflect on their lives. He aims to help people to recognise their talents and use them to improve the world and to get fulfillment from this. I found his article on backing up your life fascinating. He explains that although we tend to frequently back up our computers we do not always back up our lives. He explains that he has come up with a solution so that we can back up our lives - to lead a life of love or service so that we are backed up in the memories of other people. I personally believe that this is the way that we can have eternal life. To do things in our lifetime which really make a difference to people. Then our influences and ideas will live on in others. I do not believe that it necessarily has to be a nobel prize winning idea but even something seemingly small can really help a lot of others. For example if you show your children how to love others, they will hopefully pass this onto others and make the part of the world that they touch a better place. As you can tell I found this website very inspirational and I hope that other people will look at it and feel the same way.

Post sponsored by Review Me.

Reviews of your Blog

I have decided that it would be really useful to offer other bloggers reviews on this site. I like doing reviews and I think it is great way to get higher in search engines. In return I would either like a review or at least a link back. If anyone is interested please leave a comment on this blog. Thank you.

How to Get Referrals

A lot of people ask me how I manage to get so many referrals for different sites that I belong to. I have found that buying unreferred members from the actual site does seem to be one of the best ways of getting referrals. I have tried it with Adbux and they are much more active than those I signed up through other methods. If you cannot afford to buy referrals then you may like to refer to the article on how to get referrals that I wrote a few months ago.

I Have Won the Lottery!

Unfortunately not the National Lottery but I have won first place in the lottery on Global cash clicks. To enter I purchased some tickets with the points I had earned on the site. They have a draw each month with 5 cash prizes, which are added to your account balance. I was saving up my points to exchange them for some referrals but had a reckless moment and changed my mind! I am very glad that I did. The top prize, by the way, was $5. Not a fortune, but still a great surprise!

Domain Name

I am considering getting my own domain name. I know that I miss out of a significant amount of advertising revenue because I am at the moment being hosted by blogger. It is pretty cheap as well - I just have to iron out a few technicalities and decide whether to go for a .com or .co.uk (.com is more than twice the price).

Quidco Comes up Trumps Again!

I have had another payment from Quidco this month. I received £25.55 today, which isn't as good as the £152.98 I received last month, but is still great. It takes my monthly earnings to £102.40 already which is an average of over £25 a day. This keeps me well on target for the £500 I want to earn this month.

Adbux - 1000 clicks

I have managed to reach 1000 clicks on Adbux. If I was a basic member with no referrals this would mean $10. However, as a premium member with 85 referrals, I have already cashed out $30 and am well on my way to my next $10.

I have already earned over £50!

I cannot believe that I have already earned over £50 this month (actually £54.85). I have been paid the following :

Pay Per Post - £24.85
Review me - £30
Sponsored Reviews - £19.50

I am so pleased as I am aiming to increase my income from last month and I am sure it will take quite a bit of hard work, so this is a great start. Hopefully I can make £15 a day - a total of £465 (although a nice round £500 would be great!)

mmmtalk contest

mmmTalk are running a fantastic competition this month. Anyone can enter and there are two prizes, one of $25 and one of $10. All you have to do is post on their forum and the two people who post the most often during the month of July will win the prizes. As is usual on forums, spam will not be tolerated.

AW Surveys

AW Surveys has a new survey available. It only pays $1, which is a lot less than they usually pay, however, one lucky participant will win $150. I hope it is me!!

Review Me

I have recently mentioned this pay to blog site which I have recently come across. Review Me pays out on the 1st day of each month and was pleasantly surprised at lunch time when I had received a payment for $60 in my Paypal account.
