Get paid to read email,

Well its been a long time since I last posted on this blog. This time like the title suggests, I am going to write about the get paid to read sites. Get paid to read sites is like the name suggests, sites that pay you money for reading the emails from them(and clicking their links). I personally got paid by these sites at least once or twice so I can vouch that they do work, however I haven't been up to date with them so I cannot say if they exist anymore.

Now I must tell you that if they do exist now, they pay very little. I am talking about cents per email. To really make money with this you need have huge number of people to sign up under you and those people need to be active members. If you manage to have decent downline then its possible to make decent income from these. I stopped doing these because I couldn't get big enough downline under me and doing the clicking myself gets boring after a while.

So if you like to read advertisements, give these a try. I am not providing any links but I am sure if you search the web you will find couple of these laying around the cyberspace.

Posting about making money is hard.

Well, 24 posts about making money was hard to come up with. Therefore; no further posts will be made. I do hope you enjoyed reading these as I enjoyed writing them. It was fun. However if I find any inspiration on the topic of money, I will be sure to post here.

My next blog will be about anime and manga, the two topics that I love. It will be general entertainment blog, and will include the 2 above topics as well as topics on the regular cartoons, movies and other entertainment stuff.

Make Money with Adsense

As you already know, if you have a good website with good traffic there is no way you cannot make money off of it. Almost all of the websites have some sort of ads running on them.

One of the ad provider company is Google Adsense. Signing up for adsense account is easy as 1-2-3. You can sign up for one from one of the links on the right side of this blog.

Of course you still have to follow their TOS in order not to get your account deleted but if you follow simple rules which I previously posted here you should be fine.

So in short, if you have good traffic, and good content, you could easily make couple $100 a month or more from Adsense.

Another $113 from freelancing

Well, I got another $113 from the freelancing site that I occasionally get work from. This time it was only 3 jobs.
Here is the screenshot:



Its true that one of the jobs was the longest one I ever had, it took me 5 month to get it done. It was uploading comics to a web server. Well actually that was part of the job. The job was in 3 parts. First, I had to download the comics from a website. Second, I had to convert them to pdf, and finally upload them to a website. I should have charged for 3 parts separately, if I did, I would have gotten more money from this job then I did. But, I was pretty new to freelancing when I started so I lost on this one.

The other 2 jobs were pretty simple, took me less then a week to do.

Tips to new freelancers? Stick with the job you get to the end.
Well, my quest to make money still goes on.

Made few bucks with Adsense thats hardly worth mentioning.

Well, this is really hardly worth mentioning but, I made about $5 in Adsense from this blog. Now I know this isn't a lot but then again, this blog isn't popular, I get about 7-10 visitors a day.

Looks like money related blog isn't really popular these days unless they have some really valuable information, and mine hardly has anything valuable.

Anyway, I posted this to let you all know that I am still managing this blog, except as I mentioned in previous posts, money topics are hard to come up with.

Till next post, see ya.

Make money with newspaper's classified ads.

I was browsing the classifieds section of newspaper the other day and I gotta tell you, I was surprised. It definitely confirms my statement from one of my previous posts. That statement is "Some people don't know the value of the stuff they sell."

As an example, I saw an ad that someone was selling their used xbox for $50, I went on eBay and saw one xbox went for $70 thats about $20 loss for that person. Now, I am not saying that you can always find this kind of deal in newspaper, but it never hurts to look.

So my advice, pick up a local newspaper and check the classifieds section. Next go on eBay and cross verify the price. If you can get at least 2 times more for that product on ebay, I suggest you go and buy the product from the seller and sell it on eBay. The one downside to this is that you need a startup money, but if you can get 2 to 3 times more then what you invest, well the choice is obvious.

Till next post, see ya.

Make money with ClickBank

First of all, sorry for the lack of updates. Its really hard to come up with money related topics, but here is one anyway.

I am sure many of you who heard or read about affiliate marketing know what a ClickBank is. If you don't, its basically a marketplace for digital products, be it software or an ebook, ClickBank has it all. So how do you make money with it? Well its really quite simple. The first and easiest way is to become affiliate to the product they carry, there are thousands of products to choose from, and it doesn't cost a dime to get started.

So you basically register with them to become an affiliate, choose the product, and advertise it like crazy. If you already have a popular blog or website, then the process of advertising is quite cheap. Otherwise you would have to pay to see the product advertised(I am talking about Adwords, Overture, etc).

As for the amount of money you can make with it, its quite huge. You can make anywhere between $100 or $1000 a day, it all depends on your effort. I myself made only about $22 off of it, and I wasn't even trying hard.

Ebay tips 201 - Selling on Ebay.

Ebay is a potential source of income where anyone with a product can make money. Scratch that, you don't even need a product to make money, but for this post, I am going share some tips on how to sell a product on Ebay.

The number one tip is to actually create a seller account, which is if you already hold buyer account, is simple enough to do. Once you are done we're ready to go. The next big step is to do a research on the product you are trying to sell. This can be accomplished in 2 ways. One way is to search Google for the product, the second is to search the actual ebay for the product. Existing auctions can be used as an inspiration of how to create your listing. Don't just copy the whole listing and change the detail to match your listing, its rude and unprofessional.

Next is to be as specific about the item as possible. Examine the item to be sure that you list everything thats visible.

When you put a title for your auction, don't use ALL CAPS. Using ALL CAPS is considered as yelling, and can sometimes make you look like a spammer. If there is someone looking for your item they will find it.

Finally, it is better to list your item in the evening then in the morning. Why? Because the item will end at the same hour and minute as it was listed, and if you chose 7-day listing, it will also end on the same day. As for the day of the week, list your item either on Tuesday or on weekends. Why Tuesday? I don't know. Then again, it all depends on the items you are trying to sell.

Hopefully you enjoyed reading this and learned something valuable. Ebay is a great place to make money, but it takes time and research to get the most out of it.
