Blogsvertise.com

Are you like me? Always looking for another way to monotenize your blog(s)? Good!

I have been utilizing blogsvertise.com for some of the money that I bring in via my blog for about a month now. They pay a lot better than Payperpost, when you get a tasked assigned to you that is! Sometimes the tasks can take a long time in coming your way, but it helps if your blog is seen by a lot of readers! Helps a lot!!!

First thing to remember about blogsvertise is categories. Make sure you pick the appropriate categories or you will not get any offers! Sad but true...Advertisers are not always looking to advertise for Depends....or something similar. lol
Check out all the categories before selecting the ones that pertain to your blog.

Second thing to remember is to make sure to complete your assigned offers on a timely basis. I have had several opportunities time out because they were caught by my spam filter. Frustrating as I missed out on $20 for those tasks. :(

Third thing check your filter for tasks! lol

Always log in everyday to see if there is an assigned task to complete. But make sure that you have at least 3 entries in between tasks on your blog. Also they do not like advertising from other companies to be close to their's. They will decline your postings if you don't follow this rule. So be careful in your timing.

Last of all check them out as it is completely free to sign up with them and to get started. The sooner you check the sooner you get started. :)

Do you watch the Today Show


Today Show

I am sitting here wondering to myself if there is anyone out there that is as faithful to the The Today Show as I am?! I am up at least 5 times a week to watch the Early Morning Show and catch parts of it through the rest of the morning and to be honest watch it most Saturday mornings as well. Almost pathetic.

Actually I find this show to be very informative, but laid back. I like the fact that the anchors joke with each other on a daily basis and genuinely seem to like each other. I also find that they do a lot of different types of stories not just all about the war, or about politics.

I actually get a lot of my writing ideas from the show. I also subscribe to the feed from the blog of two of the staffers of the today show. They are actually really funny and are worthy of a read sometime.

At first I wasn't sure if I would like Meredith or not, but she has fit in admirably with the rest of the crew and I like her so far. I have not went over and read her blog yet, but maybe I should some day. Hey maybe she would actually write me back if I left a comment. Am I dreaming? Maybe.

Well, I am off to spend some time with the kiddies before they are off to their other dad's house for the weekend.

Payperpost actually pays!!!!!!!!

Alright here is the deal with all the review me little thingy maboppers on the site now.

I finally got my first payment from Payperpost and want to spread the happy news with everyone else! Go jenny! I have been waiting to promote Payperpost fully until I got my first payment as things were a little sketchy for a while as I got things a little mixed around on my first couple of posts and had a couple rejected as I didn't do things exactly right. {boy are they picky on some things}

I try not to promote websites and money making opportunities until I have been paid, or until I have researched them fully and know that it will be a good prospect for everyone. I don't want someone to jump in whole-heartedly and then find out that it was all a scam and a big old waste of time. That is not what I am hear for. I want all of us to succeed and make a living staying at home. ;0)

I figure if I can do it, anyone can! lol

I am by no means a genius or a guru of any kind. I am just a stay at home mom that is looking for some good opportunities to make some money without spending all my money. So any website that offers me a free opportunity to earn some money for writing some posts is right up my alley. That is exactly what payperpost is all about. They pay you to promote different advertisers on your site.

Not all of the opportunities are going to be open to you at first and not all of them are going to be to your liking either. As you may have noticed, I haven't done more than three opportunities until now. And this post is for my own benefit and to tell other people what payperpost is all about, if they don't already know.

This post has a little review me button at the end that will take you to a special review me page that will have you review my post that you are reading or any other that I have selected that have the same button on them. For every review that is done my tack rating goes up and I will be able to do more opportunities. I can't wait because most of the opportunities that I am really interesting in doing I am not able to do yet.

Now, to be completely honest I have not done a review yet, but when I find a post on a blog that I really like I will certainly do one. I just don't see many bloggers promoting this affiliate program yet. I really don't understand why, as it is a really good program, but it is in it's first stags of progress, so I am sure that more people will be promoting it as it gets more attention.

So, I guess what I am saying is that if you feel that my posts/articles inspire you in some way please show your support and review me. I greatly appreciate everyone's support, and if you are a member of payperpost send me your blog link and I will do a review for you also. I always try to pay back any support that is given to me in kind.

Best wishes to all. And make sure to check out this great program.

Suggestions about this blog???

OK I am opening myself up for comments here and I am asking everyone that stops by to tell me what I could change and what I should keep the same. As some of you that are regular visitors to my site may have noticed, I change up my site pretty regularly. This has become a habit of mine since starting this blog. I actually kind of like it, but it also takes away a lot of time that I probably could be using for a lot more lucrative ventures. Maybe, maybe not...

Anyways...here is what I am wondering...am I hurting my own readership by sprucing things up all the time and changing things around, or do people just not really care, or do some people like it? Is this something that will affect me in the long run and my blog status, or will it not matter either way?

Any suggestions and comments are very much appreciated, and I will consider all of them very seriously, and I thank you all in advance.

Pondering in windy ND...

In it for the MONEY Honey

2 of my favorite things
Are you in this for the money or the honey{human bonding relationships}? Do you blog just for the fun of it or do you blog for the money? Or do you do both?

Can you walk that fine line in between the two? Can you succeed in having a blog that you enjoy and that is personal to you, but still make money of from too?

It SHOULD be possible, IS possible right? Why not!!!

I shouldn't have to have posts on SEO marketing techniques {of which frankly I know little or nothing about, it is all gibberish to me},or something similar just an example, for people to want to come and read my words and thoughts.

I do know that without readership I will never get anywhere and without loyalty I am doomed.....failure is not an option for me and never has been.

That is why I will always stay loyal and true to the people that have helped me to even get this far into my blogging and all of the realizations that have come with it. I have learned a couple of lessons since logging on and starting to blog for myself. Not all of them have been easy for me, especially the patience part, that has never been my strong suit. But they are well learned and I will continue to pass them on and share my experiences.

Share on faithful ones share on!
Catch you later!

New Blog started ~ no I'm not crazy ~ I swear!

Good morning everyone ~ it is very early in the morning and I have already been up for almost two hours already!

I am very excited about my new blog that I started last night/afternoon!! I have decided that I just have way to much to blog about and not enough room on just one blog to do it in.

For one I have a lot of different interests ~ a lot!!!!

Two, I have a lot of ideas that are constantly swirling through my head and I need to write {blog} them down somewhere and I don't want to ruin a potentially good thing here, by clogging this one all up with a bunch of shall we say, not such good content?!?

Three, I want to be able to continue to up my writing skills as a blogger and continue to integrate humor and research to bring readers stories that they will be interested in, but still have my own sense of style and flare in them.

Geeezzz... this is starting to sound like a exam paper lay out!!!!

Four, I like making people laugh and that is what most of the content of my other site is going to be about. There will be some satire and dry wit thrown in to make a good recipe, but mostly I have found that I need the mixer to keep my writing from becoming too dark.

Well and finally this is my original {baby} so to speak and I don't want to mess it up! If that makes any sense to anyone. I have put a lot of time and effort and well, everything into this blog for a long time now and I want to continue to do so, but just better. ;-)

Enough for now, check out the new site if you so choose it is on mybloglog in my communities, and also under blogger. Hope you all have an outstanding day!

Catch you later

Blogging Traffic Sites



I have had the priviledge of being the visitor on some very excellent blogs recently and just wanted to give some shout outs to some of those blogs for all of you interested in something new!

Marc is one of those bloggers that can find the words for just about everything! I found one of his posts especially ran true with me, "Green Eyed Monster", and would love for you all to read it and give him a comment or two if you do stop by and read his blog. I also had to wonder on how small of a world it is, because I used to live in Tempe, AZ and that is where Marc is based. Just a small tid-bit. ;-)

Another great blog that I have been reading lately is from Marie I personally love reading personal blogs! I myself write some pretty personal stuff on here sometimes, but not as close to the heart as some! I have to admire the strength it takes to put yourself out there for the world to see. Please leave a comment if you stop by, she is a very nice lady.

If you like blogs about how to make your blog better or how to get more traffic to your sites, try chilledbeer's blog
Chilledbeer He is a rather new blogger like myself, but from reading articles and posts that he has done, and also from skipping over into his other blogs, he has learned alot in just a short few months and is someone that we could all probably learn from! Check him out!

I also found a funny blog with some good jokes and posts that I found rather funny and have visited a couple of times that I thought was good. Check it out at
Wasting-your-time I especially like the article on "Why I Am As Nice As Possible", good reading, and the reading test is hilarious!

Now I have to tell all of you that I found all of these sites while getting traffic to my own blog here. All of these sites where on blogexplosion! I love that site! I finally got approved so now maybe some other people will be coming and reading!

Leave me some comments if you liked my suggestions! Or even if you didn't. I like to hear that someone is reading my blog! I think we all do, to be honest. ;-)

Blogexplosion

I have signed up for this program called blogexplosion.com. They send people to your blog in exchange for you visiting other people's blogs. Seems pretty fair. So far I have run across some pretty strange people, and some pretty normal people.

And yes, to be brutually honest, some very boring people that I am wondering why they even blog.

I guess there are probably some people out there that probably wonder the same thing about me too, though.

I guess to each his own. I have bookmarked a couple of the more memorable sites and will add their links on the sidebar in the next day or two, or maybe later today if I can get the site to work right for me.

You should all check this out though if you are interested in seeing all of the different blogs that are out there and getting traffic to your own blogs. It is totally free and easy to do. By the time the counter runs down you can usually read the first page of the blog and see if you would be interested in ever coming back to that blog ever again.

I am also trying to be a "responsible blogger" and leaving comments on some of the sites that I have visited today so that these people know that, yes, there is someone out there actually reading their thoughts. ;-)

Have a good one.

Am I really that ignorant?

I have been in correspondence of sorts with a fellow blogger for about a month and a half now by the name of Jose. Hope you don't mind that I used your name! ;-)

Anyways, I have come to the conclusion that when I took on blogging that I had no idea how big the concept really was. I thought that I would get on here and type in my thoughts and traffic would come and I would correspond with people all over the world and hopefully maybe influence someone in a good way.

I have in my own little way done that, but not as much as I have really wanted to. I guess it would be appropriate to say that I feel into the old hype of "If you build it they will come.".

Unfortunately it does not work that easily. Networking and links are hard work and not easy. To me it is frustrating. I get looped into the "bad link" sites that get you no exposure for a lot of work and little return.

I have to hand it to my blogging buddy Jose for finding his way into all the right places. He has become a PROBLOGGER since starting to blog in just the last couple of months. I wish him all the success in the world.

Jose is an inspiration to me, that it can be done. I am even more determined to make this happen for me now. Maybe not problogger status, but something close. lol Whatever that may be.

New facepaint for the blog

Hey all bloggers that are out there blogging away today. If you have stopped by before this, you will most likely notice the different makeup I put on today. I got sick of the old stuff.

You could safely say that my mother has gotten me hooked onto paid emails again!!! Cursed her be!!! lol

No, to be honest I have been plugging away at them for several years off and on trying to figure out a good way to go about them without feeling like I am just wading through quicksand without no breathing tube.

You will soon find yourself swarmed with paying emails after you sign up for some of these programs if you have ever had the opportunity to try this line of work. I do suggest getting another email account as you will sometimes find yourself overloaded with the multiplying little buggers and your local servers will be cussing you out big time with the overload.

I have figured out that I will use my lower pay out companies that over banner rotation for points or cash to advertise this very site and also my forum that I run also, that way it is more logical to actually click on these emails instead of them sending me $1 every other week.

I would much rather have people signing up for more valuable stuff like say associated content, where they actually care about the little people out here in the world and pay us for our opinions! I love them guys!

Don't get me wrong, I love the paid emails too and don't want to discourage anyone from signing up for them, as they do also bring in a little bit of extra cash when needed, but they will most likely not make you rich, by anybody's standards, not even mine, and they are pretty low. ;-)

Check out some of the links that I put on and see what you think. I know that $.01 doesn't seem like much, but when you think of it as FREE ADVERTISING IN RETURN, then it actually seems like not such a bad deal.

Check you all later.

Jose ole'

Thanks Jose for all of your comments and posts. I have not been online for a while due to my internet being turned off. But I wanted to let you know that I am not ignoring you. I very much appreciate you signing up underneath me for payperpost.com . That was very thoughtful of you.

I am so happy for you that you like associated content. They are a very good publishing company. I have so far published 4 articles with them and I just wrote another article today with them before blogging on here today.

I covered a local news event for a Guiness Book of World Records that our State Capitol did for Snow Angels that Saturday Night Live actually featured last night on the show. That was actually pretty shocking for me. I am not used to North Dakota being featured on nationally televised tv. At least not for anything good. lol

I am excited that your blogging has taken off so well for you! You have so many people that have flocked to your site. I somewhat envy you to be honest. I have not had even a percentage of people on my site, but I also have not put even a tenth of the effort into mine that you have into yours.

All warm wishes are extended your way and I will continue to read your blog, which I did do after your first comments that you sent my way, I just like yourself did not leave a comment. I will try to be more blogger like and leave a comment next time to make sure that you know that I was around and looking.

Hope that you all have a great day and are all prosperous in your online ventures.

Payperpost.com

Payperpost.com is another pay per post blogging site that I have found that I am hoping lives up to their word. Why don't you all join me there to see if this is a legit company. I have not heard anything bad in my researching so far. So all is good so far.
