Clixsense

2008-01-07T18:21:00.000-08:00

What is ClixSense? ClixSense is a gathering place for people with products to sell, webpages to promote, referrals to get. It's of course free to sign up. You get paid to view other members advertisements. When you sign up for a free account they only give you a few adds to view. When I joined it said that there were 525 adds that I couldn't view and 6 I could. Why? Because I had a free account. I would need to upgrade to actually make any money. So here we go again. Free to join but you can't really do anything once you get there unless you upgrade. It gets better. Now that you have upgraded you can then submit you ads for other upgraded members to view so they can get paid for viewing it. And guess who pays them. You guessed it. You do. Anywhere from $.01 to $5.00. Now I've had 2 people recommend this to me. Apparently they are getting results from it and one I trust implicitly. So I'm gonna do it. Upgrade and test it out. I will then come back here with my results - good or bad. If you would also like to sign up and test the waters Click Here

Beware of the Google Emails

2008-01-06T08:09:00.000-08:00

There are a lot of offers out there, not just in your email box, that offer information or CDs that will be the answer to all your website needs. How to utilize Google to make money off of your website. Totally Free. The only thing they ask is 1.95 (or figures in that area) shipping and handling. What they don't tell you is you have 14 days to look the information over before they start charging you (to the credit card you used for the shipping and handling) a monthly fee anywhere from 19.99 to 34.95. The fee is for a website then their is the cost of the domain name etc. If you don't pay close attention to the fine print before you know it they'll be charging you. If you want to learn how to have a website and how to earn ad revenue from it start here. For free! Blogger lets you create a 'Free' blog. you have many options out there for things to ad to your site for free that generate an income. Of course traffic is needed but that comes later. Blogger offers Google Adsense to add to your page you just have to create an account. There is also a YouTube element, again creating an account, to put videos relating to your site. Every time someone watches a video on your page you get paid. Then their is also Voxant News Room (not an element - you add this yourself. You pick the news you show and get paid when someone reads or watches the news. Ebay auctions is also an option. Display auction ads to generate an income. So before you spend the money on a website and all it entails give blogger a try. Learn the ropes first.

Banner Advertising

2008-01-06T07:59:00.000-08:00

You see it everywhere. On every web page you go to. Banners are used by just about every kind of marketer there is. From Target to Drug and Alcohol Rehabs. They are designed to gain your attention and they do. They have plain text ones and the ones that flash repeatedly in an extremely annoying manner. You can create a banner just for embellishment to add to your social networking pages also. The one thing I can't find is a banner generator that I can use that will take the person to my website. I've created some but then I have to 'Save Image As' then I saved them to photobucket but when you click on them they take you to photobucket not my website. Since there are hundreds of them listed when I google them I can't possibly go through them all til I get the one I want. I want to generate an HTML code that I can copy and paste to use throughout my internet journeys. There are a lot of sites that are Banner Exchanges that I would like to utilize but first I need a banner. Any recommendations to help me through the quagmire will be greatly appreciated.

Social Networking Site that Pays You! Yuwie

2008-01-05T22:34:00.001-08:00

I have been involved with a networking site for 3 weeks now. This one is free. It is similar to MySpace in its' setup. Their hook is that they pay their members a percentage of the advertising revenues for their participation. I have seen a lot of members post their earnings to show that there are people actually getting paid. You have to be very active on the site and get referrals to actually see any money. I'm still in the beginning stages so any income remains down the line for me. It has one thing going for it and it's a biggie. It's a lot of fun and I have met some great people from around the world. The teenagers haven't discovered it yet so I can go to peoples' pages and actually be able to read what they have to say. Unlike MySpace (my kids for one) where they write in another language with symbols & caps in all the words in the most unlikely format. I don't know if they can actually read the stuff either. You can click on the above banner to join or you can read more about it at Yuwie Exposed

Ryze - It's Free! (Only in your dreams)

2008-01-05T21:48:00.000-08:00

The ones I can't stand are the ones that say they are 'Free' but they're not. You go through the whole process of signing up and email verification and then you finally get in and they say, "To access this page upgrade now". Of course to upgrade you have to pay. So there's about 3 things you can actually do. Ryze is one of them. Ryze is a "business networking" site. You can't really do anything unless you upgrade. And it's a monthly fee. Gold is $10 a month and Platinum is $20. There are too many sites out there for free I'm not gonna pay for it. My account just went on the permanently inactive status. I won't be going back.

Fusion Cash Internet Scam?

2008-01-05T21:36:00.000-08:00

I found this site that says they will pay you for completing a few offers. Then in turn you refer people to their site and they will pay you for the referral. Well I completed step one and made $27 in about a half an hour. You can cash out at $25. So I did using a paypal account. This was two weeks ago. I've never gotten paid and my account still says pending. It sounded straight forward and the person who recommended it to me says he got paid. But did he really? It is called Fusion Cash. There are offers that you have to pay for but there is also about 3 pages of free offers. I did the free offers. That's probably why they never paid me I didn't actually give them any money. If you have done this and they paid you I would love to hear about it.
