Does Clixsense make sense?
Recently I was browing through sites because I had to tag someones blog and I wanted it to be a good blog. So anyway, I found Mommy Enterprises which was a very nice site. I really think its wonderful. Anyway, she was talking about a company called ClixSense .
From what I can tell this company asks that you view some ads for change, and as you go, that change builds up into dollars and so on. Its not a bad idea. So we will find out if its a good way to make money or not. I signed up and will be doing all 25 of the offers that were available to me.
So here goes....

Have you guys noticed this picture on the right hand side of the page? Well if you haven't give it a click. This picture leads you into a health network that we just joined for our weightloss quest blog. Just take a peek cause I think you'll like what you find.
And just in case you were wondering, Angela has been asking for submissions to join the network but the opportunity is only available for one week. It started on June 22 and will end on June 29. So if you have a health blog you would like to submit, just click on the shoes and the instructions will be there.
Good luck!!!
I am a Little Bit Discouraged
I have been delving into payperpost and have definitely earned a little bit of money. The only problem is that you are only allowed to do three posts for each blog. You can't do the same advertisment for two of your blogs, and the money takes thirty days to hit your account. Which is great once you hit your thirty days, because then you start getting paid every day or every few days. I have only made $73 in the last thirty days.
I finally got my first ten posts approved, which you have to have in order to add another blog. So I get to add my weightloss blog to payperpost today!!! Woohoo. Today was my first pay day from payperpost also. I got paid $8. YAY!!!
Anyway, I hope it picks up now that I can add another blog. As always, I will let you know.

Hurting for Money?
Believe it or not, I have been looking for a job online, not for the pleasure of something to do. Nope, I have enough to do. lol. I have been looking for an at home job solely because I need money. In my desperation to make ends meet, I have maxed my credit cards out and taken out two payday loans. Now I have bad credit, which is what caused me to seek out these types of funding. We had a medical bankruptcy a couple of year ago, and though it was medical, it doesn't change the label of "bad credit."
I finally went to my bank and they loaned me the money to get out of the mess I created. They didn't loan it to me based on my credit, as in my credit reports. They loaned it to me based on our history with our bank and the fact that we have direct deposit for my husbands check. THANK GOD!!!
There are lots of people hoping to take advantage of you when you have bad credit and are in a bad situation, but there are legitimate ways of getting help, and there is a lot of information out there. One of the sites that offers good information on bad credit loans and finance charges for bad credit is bad credit loans . If you are confused or are looking for solutions with bad credit, don't hesitate to check out this site. It explained a lot about interest rates for bad credit for me, and I actually understood it.
Check it out, but remember, there is always hope.

Dear Lord
You may have already read this on my weigtloss blog, but if you haven't I just wanted to let you know....
We are getting ready to launch a site called Dear Lord. This will be a site that offers advice, scripture, doctrine, inspiration and hope to all of those who need it.
Obviously, if you don't want or need any of those than this site is not for you,(smile) but for those of us who have problems or just need a little spiritual uplifting, come on over.
We will be going live on July 14th and we are extremely excited. We have seven people who will be giving advice and contributing to this site. All of us have testimonies posted on DearLord in order to explain to you, where each of us is coming from and why we are each uniquely qualified to help you or even offer advice.
If you don't want advice then come for the bookshelf, or the inspirational corner. We have a doctrinal page and we will probably just have conversation. All of these will be secondary so they may take a while to get up and functional, but keep checking back.
We would enjoy seeing you, so please stop by when we are ready to go. You won't be sorry.
Plans fail or lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed. Proverbs 15:22

Marketing time
As I discussed yesterday, I am beginning to believe that the key to working at home is marketing, which I am fatally bad at. So I have decided to do an experiment. I am going to pick one thing, one business, to try and market for 4 weeks. After that time, I will see if the marketing is what I needed or if I was right about some of these work at home jobs.
I am going to market by email, mail, and in person. Hopefully I will do alright. Like I said, I am not good at it. In fact, I just simply hate it. Anyway, I will give it a shot and let you know what happens. Don't hold your breath, I don't want anyone fainting dead away.(lol) We'll just have to wait and see.
Until next time... Hope you are making the big bucks.

GDI Follow up...
Well its going...not so good. I have had two sign ups under me. To be fair, I haven't done much advertising, but I have to admit that I HATE marketing.
My trainer started me on using Craigslist and although that is kind of a black and white area, I have no problems using it. What I have a problem doing is talking to family members, which I have in abundance, and who incidentally think that I'm crazy every time I find another work from home opportunity. I also hate telling all my friends, since I don't have any. Well, I guess you can count Theresa and Crystina as my friends, but they do everything with me so I am not getting anything for them. I do have one friend from high school, but we don't talk much and she probably wouldn't do it anyway. So what are we left with? I have no idea.
What do you think?
I think people make money on the internet everyday and I'm not one of them. Is it simply because I hate the marketing aspect of a business? When this blog gets more exposure would it be easier for me to market?
Take GDI for example. In theory, its the perfect system. You make money forever by pulling people into this business. The only reason it would fail is if no one signed up. That is where I am. I have only signed up two people. Where are all of the others going to come from?
I just don't know. Maybe one of you will have the answers, or maybe tomorrow I will. LOL.
Have a great day everybody... Hope you are making some money!

The Rumblings of a Volcano
A new way to make money blogging was brought to my attention today, and Advolcano.com was the source. Advolcano is an internet advertising site. Which means that they are the middle man between those who want to advertise on sites or blogs, and those that want to sell advertising slots on their sites or blogs. They have registrations set up in two groups: Advertisers and Publishers.
For those of us that wish to draw people to our blog, or maybe give them a reason to come back, while making money, the publishers side is the place for us. Of course, those of you who already have this part down and want to buy advertising, you know which side you belong to. lol.
Advolcano lets you pick where you want the promotional advertisements to go on your site, as well as lets you have complete creative control. Meanwhile they also let you set the payments for each time frame. For instance, I decided 1 day of advertising on my site would cost the advertiser $6. Of course,the more days the advertiser wanted to run the ad, the more the advertiser saves. For instance, if an advertiser wanted the ad to run for 7 days, the price would be $10, and so on.
It is a very cool place to get started. So give it a try and let me know what you think. I think you'll really like it.
Surveying the claims....
How many thousands of sites claim that doing their surveys will give you a part time income or even better, a full time income? I have seen quite a few. So I have signed up with all of the ones I could get my hands on. Either I am not doing it right or this survey thing just doesn't work.
If I am wrong please tell me. I would be so happy to fill out surveys for money, but my inbox is swamped with requests to do surveys and all they offer me is to enter me into sweepstakes,or contests for free. Okay, so the sweepstakes are for like $30k, but how likely is that? So what are we supposed to do, spend 20 minutes on a survey that there is a very slight, a tiny sliver really, of winning $30k?
I don't know about you, but that sounds like a complete waste of time to me. What do you all think?
Maybe I am just not getting the right surveys. If anyone out there has a real survey company, then I would be incredibly happy to hear about it, as would all the readers. (both of them)lol

We're celebrating with Lucky 7's!
This morning Payperpost's advertise on blogs released the fantastic news that they have received $7 million in funding. This is exciting! I mean for a company that just started in June of last year (2006), that is quite a feat.
In order to celebrate in style, payperpost has decided to make this a 7 day extravaganza, complete with bonus opportunities.
Lucky 7, as it has been deemed by Payperpost, is a 7 day time period starting noon today and ending next Tuesday at the same time. During these 7 days, payperpost will be releasing $7,000 in opportunities. Bloggers may choose from opportunities using three different increments: $10.77, $70, and $700.
I don't know about you, but that is major money to me, and even if bloggers choose to do one $10.77 post, they are not limited on the other two increments. They can still do one of both of the big money posts. Bloggers can take any opportunity that comes up in their opps and even better news for everyone… none of the opportunities are segmented. You know what that means? Yep, that means that even the newbie who just walked in the doors gets a chance. Isn't that fantastic!!
So if you get the chance, take what you can, and acknowledge the success that payperpost is enjoying! Please see the press release below announcing this happy event!

Blogging Marketplace Secures $7 Million Series B
Draper Fisher Jurvetson leads round and joins Board of Directors
ORLANDO, FL – (June 12, 2007) – PayPerPost, the leading marketplace for advertisers to reach bloggers and other consumer content creators, today announced it has completed a $7 million second round investment led by Draper Fisher Jurvetson, an investor in the company's Series A and one of the world’s leading high-technology venture capital firms. The financing brings the total amount of capital raised by PayPerPost to over $10 million, giving the company considerable resources for further development as the industry’s leading Consumer Generated Advertising marketplace. Additional participants in the round include existing investors Inflexion Partners and Village Ventures as well as new investor DFJ Gotham. With this investment, DFJ Managing Director Josh Stein also joins PayPerPost’s Board of Directors.
“PayPerPost created this exciting new advertising space and has established itself as the industry leader,” said Ted Murphy, chief executive officer of PayPerPost. “Although we’ve only used a portion of our first round capital, this added support from investors unlocks significant growth potential. Our content creator and advertiser ROI metrics clearly demonstrate the upside for PayPerPost’s model. We intend to use this capital to build the infrastructure, visibility and professional expertise necessary to reach and retain a greater network of advertisers and content creators than ever before.”
Since its founding in June of 2006, PayPerPost has signed more than 6,500 advertisers to its groundbreaking service, which has enabled Consumer Content Creators to be compensated for their efforts discussing specific companies, products or services via blogs, videos or other media. The content creators are required to disclose relationships with advertisers on their blog, providing transparency for the end reader. Over 125,000 Internet postings, most in the form of blogs, have already earned money for their creators through PayPerPost’s innovative marketplace. PayPerPost recently released PayPerPost Direct, a disruptive new service that allows advertisers to contract and negotiate directly with individual bloggers they identify through a safe, managed system.
“PayPerPost has laid a strong foundation for the future,” noted Tim Draper, founder and managing director of Draper Fisher Jurvetson. “It continues to attract a critical mass of participants from both the advertising and blogging communities. Analogous to Overture’s sponsored search model, we believe PayPerPost’s business model holds disruptive potential and will enable the company to thrive in the evolving paid-content arena.”
To mark the $7 million dollar funding, PayPerPost has launched a new website detailing the company’s service offering at http://www.payperpost.com. Bloggers and advertisers can easily sign up at the site and begin leveraging the self service marketplace.

Is it worth it - continued
So here is the "what's next."
For those of you who have done what I am about to describe let me know if I get it wrong or if I need to modify something.
When the offers run out and there is no money left to be made that way, although I'm told that there are some offers that you can do over and over again, there is another way.
This will only work if you have some money to invest. Instead of doing the offers for others, you will now be the one who pays people to do offers for you. Why would you do this? Well let me tell you.
Say paypal offers you $350 for 4 green referrals. Well you just paid $25 to 4 people and got $350 for it. You spent $100 and got $250. Thats quite a return. The trouble with this is that sometimes people go green, but then get flagged. That means you paid because they went green, but something happened and they have been put on hold. Now you have to either find out if the trader will be able to complete this trade or if you have to go after your money because you got scammed.
There are trading records called TR's The more TR's you have accompanied by comments, the better trader you are.
I personally have a TR of 3. This means that I have completed three trades fully. I became green, they paid me through paypal and left feedback for me.
Another major problem with this system is that as traders turn green for you, you have to pay them, but you don't get paid until all four of your referrals go green. So you could be waiting a couple of days. I have not done this to make money. So far, I have only been the one who goes green, but I may soon branch out into this other side.
In order to become the initiator and have people go green for you, you must have a TR of at least 4. If you would like more information on this, please let me know.
Stay tuned for the third way to make money with this system.

Who Gets....What?
What would you like to win?
Well go and get it.
All you have to do is sign up at whogets.com Once you confirm your account with the link in your email, you enter in some information about yourself and look through the contests. You then pick the one you want to win the most. Once you are entered, there will be a text box that pops up and asks you why you think you should win. I admit, it was kind of fun to come up with a reason and in the end I couldn't actually think of anything except, "I've never won anything before." lol. If I were to become a finalist (they pick 7 finalists for each contest) that would be what decided it for me. I am quite sure that I will win, by the sheer magnitude and depth of my answer. LOL.
Well luck to you as you play, and may I win and not you....(lol)

Is it worth it?
Well I am ready to tell you about my recent endeavor.
I got involved in my most recent opportunity through a site called Project Payday. It explained that you would make money by doing those trials you see pop up all over the place.
Don't know what I am talking about? Okay, you know those sites that say "Get your free ipod here." Yes, I thought you did. Everybody has seen those sights and we usually steer clear of them, because we know that somehow we aren't going to get the ipod and on top of that, we are going to be giving out our credit cards. Not a fun prospect.
Well, this new job explained that people who really want that ipod will pay you to do their offers for them. In this particular case, a person signs up for the ipod and the trial, or whatever the company wants them to sign up for. Then the person has to refer, let say, 8 people to do the same thing in order to get their free ipod. So, these people get about 4 or 5 of their friends to do the offers for them, but they are 3 or 4 shy. So they post to these user groups in order to get someone to either trade them for other offers, or trade them for cash. The amount of money you make per trade depends on how much the offers are going to cost and how many you will have to do. Say for instance I need 1 credit for the ipod, so I go in and I have my choice of offers ranging from $1 into the hundreds and two hundreds. I, of course, choose the $1. That means that I will probably have to do 2-4 opportunities, because the $1 opportunities are usually the opportunities that only count for 1/4, 1/3, or 1/2 toward your credit. When all of your offers get approved and you have your full 1 credit then you are called "green." Which simply means that you get paid.
Payment goes directly to paypal (yes you have to have a paypal account.)
I went with the cash. I don't really want and Ipod, but there are a lot of people who get the free gifts and then put them on ebay and make a killing. Then there are people like me, who just want cash now and forget the rest. Well I got onto this forum I had been told to join and immediately started receiving requests for offers people wanted me to do for them. I quickly got into the swing of things. I signed up for and did my first one, but then I didn't turn green. I waited and waited and then got nervous and pm'd(personal message) the initiator of the trade.
She then told me that sometimes it takes a while. I was relieved and begain to accept other offers to trade. I made about $120 in my first two days. After that things began slowing down. Not only did I have a bunch of problems with my trials, trying to get them cancelled before the time, and getting charged if I didn't. I also was running out of offers to do, because you can't duplicate ANY site. It became a hassle.
Now I know that many people have made it doing this and at first the money was fantastic, but then what?
Well I will save that for the next post, but just so you know, there is another step.(smile)
After I give you all of the information, I will also give you the sites and forums you will need to start if thats what you choose to do.
If you have done this or are currently doing this please write us and let us know how you do it and what you think of it. We would all really love to know.

Wow, Look at my traffic
I don't write for a few days and all of a sudden people start showing up. I am sorry guys, thats kind of like showing up for a house party and the owners of the house are gone. Thats not nice!!!
I do have a reason though if you are interested in hearing about it.
I have been busy making money! Yep, you read right. I have been making money on a real honest to goodness work at home opportunity. Intrigued? Well, I would be too. I started last Thursday and have actually seen, in my paypal account, about $100. My sister did $125. Since Thursday guys!!!
I am going to tell you about it but first I want to get through all the problems we are having. There are problems with the system and Crystina and I are going to get to the bottom of them, so that we can hand you a fantastic opportunity.
Now you know I am not scamming you. I just wouldn't do that, but I really don't want to tell you guys to do something and then find out its bad news. So, give me just a couple more days and I will be sure to tell you.
Meanwhile, I did get more money from Payperpost. I can't believe they have been approving my posts. Its so awesome!!! Can't way to be rollin in the dough, lol. Yeah, right.
Well, please let me know what you guys have been up to. It would be nice to have a comment now and then. LOL
See you soon!

Okay, I admit it, I've fallen head over heels...
I have fallen in love with payperpost.com blog reviews . I find it absolutely amazing. I have made just over $35 and mostly in the last day. I have been with them for about 2 weeks now, and though I started out slow, I am finally catching up. I guess you want to know what I am going to do with all $35? I'm going to Disney World!!!
Seriously, though, $35 doesn't seem like much, but it’s a lot for a few days work promoting some pretty darned good products and services.
I have met some really great people. They are all so nice and helpful. I even had a few concerns when I first started, and the experienced bloggers came to my rescue in the forum. The whole forum is full of experienced bloggers showing newbie’s how to succeed at blogging. How often do you see would be competitors helping each other out? The answer to that would be, never. Bloggers at payperpost do not seem to consider themselves competitors. Instead, they count themselves as friends, colleagues and sometimes more. Everyone is willing to help. I love it!
After years of searching for a legitimate opportunity to work at home, I feel like I have finally found my niche. So, thanks so much payperpost. You are just what I needed.

YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE THIS!!!!
I got approved within minutes on sponsoredreviews.com, the first time around!!!! I told you you wouldn't believe it.
Once approved I went into the advertisers and it was glorious. Like heaven! I have the choice of higher paying assignments and Oh My Gosh, I am so excited.
I currently have six advertisers reviewing my bids. Hey, I am not worried. I may not get any for a while, but at some point I will get one and then people will flock to my site. LOL, yeah right! Anyway, I will continue to report my progress. Until then, be happy and hopeful!

A new way to make money on your blog!
I just signed up with sponsoredreviews.com. It is an advertising for hire site, which matches you up with paying advertisers. You remember, like payperpost. Of course I have to wait for my blog to be reviewed again, and I fully expect it to get rejected a few times first, lol, but I am hopeful that it will be up and running soon.
Some of the differences include the fact that you get to choose what you want to be paid, which is AWESOME!!! They give you a suggestion price range. I, of course, chose the lowest, as I am not at the high dollar range yet. One day maybe, but not now. Besides, I want everyone to enjoy my services equally and if I put my prices too high, some people may not enjoy my wonderful style simply because of money. Now we can't have that, can we. (LOL)
Anyway, as always, I will let you know how it turns out. It should be fun....

Summer Score!
I have two sons, Zechariah (9) and Nathanael (7). I homeschool them during Fall, Winter, and Spring, but they started out behind so its been hard trying to catch them up.
So this year I started looking for a summer school program to help them. Score Educational Center has a reading program for every grade. They help make the reading fun and the children seem to enjoy it. With the types of learning they provide I have heard that a child can literally be reading a grade level higher at the end of the thirty one-hour sessions. Those sessions can be spread out over the entire summer or just a few concentrated days.
I signed up for more information on their site and am anxiously awaiting their call back. It is definitely everything I need for my children. I would love for the boys to feel good about their reading for a change. Score Educational Center can accomplish that. I think that reading well will make them totally different people. They don't get teased a lot or anything, because they are homeschooled, but real accomplishment breeds real self esteem, and that is what I am going for.
If your child is having trouble in any subject please feel free to investigate at Summer Program I was thrilled with the idea of a program like this. My boys are even excited!

RED ALERT!!!!!
Madelein McCann was abducted from her hotel room in Praia Da Luz, Portugal in March of this year (2007). This is every parents nightmare, so please, for this little girls sake, look this picture over and memorize her features. Notice the abnormality in her right eye. This is the mark everyone on the news is drawing our attention to. Her parents are devestated and willing to do anything to get her back, after all, wouldn't you be. Please help. You never know who might see her or where she might be. If you can, you may even want to post the picture to your site so we can give this as much coverage as possible. Copy the pic and put it in your emails, or whatever. I know that whatever you can do will help. Most of all, pray. Its really the only thing besides being vigalant that we can do, and its an awful lot. If all of this sounds corny to you, try and think of how you'd feel. Thanks, in advance, for all that you do.
A Direct way to advertise for a specific advertiser.
Payperpost Direct has recently come out with a new feature that will ensure bloggers much happiness.
Imagine being able to find your own advertisers. Maybe an advertiser is scanning through your blog and likes your theme. What’s more is that the advertiser loves the way you, in particular, write. Well with payperpost direct, the advertiser could hire you with the click of a button, or should I say badge?
To begin with, the blogger posts the payperpost direct badge on their blog. This badge is located in your ppp tools icon. Then simply hit the ppp direct badge and there you are, right smack in the middle of the payperpost direct badge center. You pick the color and the style, the lowest price you would take for a direct advertising opportunity and select widget. From here on you want to make sure to verify your url and then hit add widget. You will then be brought up to your template and the badge will automatically be placed on your page.
Simple huh?
The best part is that payperpost only charges a super small fee for this opportunity. In fact, the charge is 10% compared to 50% or higher that its competitors, such as Review Me, charge.
I can't believe that they charge so much less, while doing so much work. They make sure we get paid, the earnings get claimed on taxes, and the cut out the risk factors that come from trying to negotiate with an advertiser. I mean, lets get real. Do we even know a fake advertiser from a real one? I sure don't. Payperpost is taking all the risk and they have experience in knowing the difference.
For you newbie bloggers, like me, this feature is available to all bloggers, and is simple to use. So come on and join at get paid to blog. You are bound to be happy you did!

Blogging and the money you make.
I have been doing this blogging thing for about two weeks and you know what? I really like it. Even though nobody ever comes to visit or comment and basically I am just talking to myself (laughing) I am enjoying writing what I think.
Hows the money, you ask? Well, not real good. At least, not right now, but I think that willl change once I get a visitor or two. LOL. I have had a couple of comments once or twice, but I think they were pity conversations. No, I am just kidding. For payperpost.com alone I have made about $20.35 for posts, and $15.00 for one referral, and for AssociatedContent.com I have earned about $20 also. That isn't too bad, considering I don't post a lot.
I am currently trying to post more often in order to make a better wage, but I struggle to find things to write about and I wonder how to get people to my blog and increasing my ratings. (Here is where the upper crust bloggers are laughing at me, instead of being nice, and offering me advice. lol) Thats just mean, you guys.
I am probably talking to myself, but oh well, it gives me something to do. :)
Anyway, just letting you know about my progress.
Hope you are gaining on your goals and having a great time doing it!!
See you soon. (probably in the mirror.) sigh.

Think ahead and never stop for directions!
Women, are you tired of getting lost? Men, are you tired of someone always telling you to get out and ask for directions? Then this is for both of you! (Smile)
Publicroutes.com has recently popped up to help us save time, gas, and maybe even a few marriages along the way, by giving us printable directions online. Wherever you may be going, it will help you find your way. Simply choose the city you are interested in and hit enter. From there it is simple. Actually, the whole process is simple, quick, and easy. Fill in the text boxes required to find the directions you are looking for and before you know it, you have your directions. Woohoo!!!
This site has other features that are wonderful. In fact, it allows you to "map it." This is where you enter the place you'd like the map of and voila!! The map appears. It is a nice detailed map that you can zoom in on for the finer details or zoom out on to reduce the more than needed details.
Its definitely worth a look see. So, I'll see you there. If you can't find it stop here, get driving directions, for directions. LOL, Otherwise you might end up lost in a train, in the middle of nowhere or worse. (Smile)

Everybody needs to know they aren't alone.
I recently joined a group for work at home employees or hopefuls. It seems to me that everyone needs this type of group. It includes those people that have been looking for a work at home position and those that already have one, which is enlightening. It helps the potential home worker to realize they aren't alone in their search, it gives them hope that there are jobs out there, and it gives them leads as to what type of jobs are out there and what companies are hiring.
For the seasoned home working professional or the starter home working professional, it gratifies them to know that people look up to them, and feels good for them to know that they can help others.
This group is a place where people can talk about their struggles and challenges, but also shares the joys and accomplishments that each person has attained or are trying to reach. The group is called Work at Home and is a great place to get advice, hope, conversation and moral support. Hope to see you there!

Look up with MySky!!
My sky, made by mead, is a new gadget that educates the user about the constellations and space in general. The medium sized, gun shaped astronomy tool is actually a telescope with a pretty good-sized LCD screen. It features instructional videos, sky maps, video tours, and a trigger that will illuminate your understanding of the universe. This gives new meaning to the phrase, “shoot for the stars.” It really is cool!
The main purpose of this gadget is to identify whatever it is in space that you are looking at. To use it, you simply point the gun toward whatever you want to know about and it will tell you the name of the planet, constellation, or galaxy in question. It can record what you shoot and you can even download updated information and tours from the internet. Man, I wish these were out when I was a kid. (Sigh) Well, I am definitely getting one for my kids. Which means that when its freezing outside at Christmas we’ll all be standing on my porch hoping to catch some awesome sights!
They aren’t available yet, but you can pre-order them now at astronomical binoculars If nothing else, you should definitely check it out. This would be the coolest tool for unschooled or homeschooled children.
