First and foremost, the layout. I love the combination of purple, pink and white, so I decided to change my layout for good (unless I plan to switch again). Anyways, let's talk about this site and what's in here.

The navigation:
  • HOME - You will see here my recent posts and updates about myself, this blog, and the programs I joined. Basically it's the blog itself. I placed this link for readers like you to be able to navigate properly around my blog.
  • GET PAID TO (GPT) - When you click on this tab, you will notice several kinds of GPT sites. To narrow them down, here is a list of the types of GPT sites:
    • Get Paid to Read - Some people call them Paid To Read (PTR) sites. These sites focus mainly on paying the members to READ the ads that advertisers put up to gain either traffic or referrals.
    • Get Paid to Blog - I guess the name says it all. You get paid to post on your blog, of course subject to approval.
    • Get Paid to Socialize - OK. Ever heard of Friendster? Or even MySpace? Well, there are sites that pay you to do exactly what you are doing in the aforementioned sites, SOCIALIZE!
    • Get Paid to - No, it's not a typo. Get Paid To sites are sites that pay you to do more than just reading ads, or blogging, or socializing. They pay you to read ads and emails, take surveys, try offers, sign up for something, play games etc.
  • MLM & Networking - MLM stands for Multi-Level Marketing. These sites requires people to pay a certain amount of fee to join in exchange of products and services. People earn more with these programs through referring people to join under their referral link. Earnings in this kind of online business is potentially big but is risky due to frauds and scams, so beware.
  • Others - Anything that is not under the 3 categories are found here.

PayPal no longer accepts Paid-To-Read (PTR) sites. This is, from my opinion, a big loss for their company. I do not really know why they ban PTR sites but if PayPal thinks that it is best for their company, then let it be.

With PayPal out of the picture, other payment processors are starting to become famous to all thus increasing PayPal's competition. Here are the list of alternative payment processors that most PTR sites are using right now (note: e-currencies are included in this list).

1. AlertPay - Their system is similar to PayPal but they their fees are extremely higher compared to PayPal.
2. MoneyBookers - Also similar to PayPal and fees are not half as bad. But there are rumors from other forums that MoneyBookers hates PTR sites. Rumors do spread like wildfire and I'd better be safe than sorry. Although I managed to make myself an account, but I wouldn't risk using this payment processor to process my payments from a PTR site. Maybe I'll just use it for my own personal sake.
3. Google Checkout - I don't think that there are fees for this service, but I haven't really tried this out yet. Anyone who knows more about this payment processor, please enlighten me.
4. E-Gold and Liberty Reserve - These are an internet currencies and the money received here cannot be transfered directly to your bank account, instead, a member should transact with a legit e-currency exchanger like PinoyGoldExchange (for egold) and AsianaGold (for egold and liberty reserve).

For me, I guess the best one so far is e-gold, only because I'm used to using the said internet currency, but I'll give the others a try as well. I might also consult others for this as well, especially here in the Philippines, to know which is more efficient and effective for a PTR site member like me.

If you guys have any comments and suggestions for me to look at and ponder, don't hesitate to drop one! I would appreciate them so much.

For people who love to upload pictures and show them off to friends and relatives, this is the perfect site for you!

Do you know that you can get paid just by doing what you love to do: sharing pictures? In shareapic, it is possible. Just make an account here and start uploading and sharing your pictures. Every picture viewed by anyone will credit you at around 22cents per 1000 views. I know that it is quite a lot of views just to get less than a dollar but hey, think of it this way, the site offers you a free image hosting, and the fact that you get paid for showing your pictures. Let's just say forget about the money and just start uploading and sharing your pictures? Then just check out your earning after a few weeks or so? Anyways, this is just a sideline okay? Not something to really put your heart into.



Reminders: There are a lot more money making opportunities that you can dedicate your heart on. This will just be an added earnings. After all, this is also free money!

It is quite tiring and not to mention a bit boring just clicking ads, the mere fact that you are getting paid makes it less boring though. Tongue Out So anyways, an online friend of mine, a co-netrepreneur, introduced a cool way of earning money in my favorite forum. It is through listening to radio!


Click the banner to listen with me

I have been listening for only 90 minutes, and got 2 cents already! Not bad eh? I feel relaxed as well. But the nice thing here is I get paid! Nice discovery eh? Thanks bro xleon! (Sorry just needed to mention your name LOL.)

So let's see, I haven't really explored around yet, but here is what I found out:
1. You must close the radio and connect again after quite sometime because the timer sometimes stops for an unknown reason. I got this fact from their forum.
2. To request payout, you should have at least $10 in your balance then go to your NedMoney (found at the right side) then go to "retrieval", that's it!

Well I think this is a nice program for me, since I'm almost online 24/7! Let's see if this program is really paying, but if not, what the heck, I'm still enjoying the radio! It's still a win-win for me.

A lot of PTR sites are starting to switch servers due to some issues regarding the Terms of Services (TOS) and policies that some servers do not allow PTR sites anymore, or the fact that servers cannot handle too much traffic thus resulting to too much "lag" on the members part. Because of this change, most of the new PTR sites are temporarily closing down for few days thus risking their credibility (that is if they are not really scams).

Another problem that most of the PTR sites are facing right now is that PayPal does not allow PTR or cash incentive sites to send and receive payments anymore, unless these sites give PayPal some documents for them to be able to uplift their limited PayPal accounts (I'm not pretty sure about this but I think this is for the taxes and other government issues). Because of PayPal's strict implementation of this rule, some of these sites either added E-Gold, MoneyBookers and the like as their payment processors, or worse case, temporarily close down.

One more problem that a PTR site might bump into are the ever-so-popular hackers. Why wouldn't a hacker be interested in these sites, wherein they get instant cold cash from hardworking admins? This is the worst of them all. Not only, the members are affected but also the admin himself. I know one site that is currently facing this dreadful problem: Cash2all.cn.

Almost all PTR sites are encountering these said problems right now, and one of the PTR sites that I love most (PaidBux.org) is closed down (hopefully at a temporary basis) due to the first two problems cited

Hopefully this dispute will be over soon, and everything will be back to normal.

I requested for my FIRST EVER PAYOUT DailyClicks, a Get Paid To Read site and I can't wait to receive it! It was $18 and will be sent to me via PayPal. That means, due to fees and charges of PayPal, I will only get roughly around $17 on my account, plus another $5 deduction for the PayPal-to-bank transfer fee. That would only yield around $12!!! Talk about FEES!!! That's around $6 deduction from my earnings! *sighs*

Oh well, do I have a choice? Maybe I'll just accumulate the earnings then transfer them to my bank account, I think that's the best choice I got.

Till then, I'm gonna wait for my payment!

Are you a merchant waiting for cheques to be cleared? Are you worried that the payment sent through your mail may never come? Well, why don't you try accepting credit cards as a form payment for your products and services?

After surfing around the internet, I came across a credit card processing site which might interest merchants around the world - Ms. Merchant Account. It offers credit card processing for low rates. They accept and process Visa, MasterCard, American Express (Amex), Discover and other popular forms of credit cards.

Retail Processing / Low Risk Merchants:
Do you own a grocery store, restaurant, hardware store, clothing store, or any kind of store or shop in your neighborhood? Any business who accepts credit cards increases any merchants' customers. Not only is it very convenient for customers to pay but also for merchants as well. Ms. Merchant Account helps traditional businesses and offers lowest transaction rates from their services, may it be a small business like a fast-food chain, or a big business like a big department store.

Offshore / High Risk Merchants:
Do you own a travel agency and you need to make transactions using different currencies? Then Ms. Merchant Account has the solution for you. They work with the most reputable international credit card agents. This is for protection purposes against frauds and scams.

Internet Merchants:
Do you own an internet business? Then credit card is the fastest and the most accommodating and time-saving way of paying and receiving payments. Ms. Merchant Account offers the best and the lowest rates for credit card processing. This way, you are sure to get payments from your customers and also pay other merchants as well with no hassle involved.

With this said, the merchant (YOU), is able to gain more customers just by accepting credit card as your payment option.

A great way to start the day. Hurray for the premium members and free members alike, DailyClicks is back - better than ever. No lag, no mysql problems. Just plain click and earn.

As of today, there are 41 ads. That's 41 cents for free members and 82 cents for premium members. Before the server upgrade, it usually took me forever just to finish the day's ads, due to unwanted errors, and annoying login issues. But now, I see NONE of them, and it took me less than half an hour to finish all the ads.

I knew it would be worth the wait. Members who doubt their credibility, thinking that they will never be back online because of the server upgrade, would most likely be ashamed and thankful as well. Me? I never doubt them even for a second (no, no I wasn't paid to write this. LOL.)

Happy clicking and earning!

DailyClicks is having a server maintenance to improve their site and hopefully to get rid of the MySQL problems that their site often encounters. They are moving to a "more powerful server" for the betterment of their services.

Together with the server maintenance, their forum is also closed for the meantime and would probably be open as soon as the maintenance is done.

I'm psyched to see what's new in their server, and what's up with the "extra-powerful super server". I have my hopes up with this program.

Paid-to-Blog programs have spread throughout the internet, and bloggers have come to realize the potentials of these said programs. Most of them are free so bloggers are crazy about them. One of which is Bloggerwave, wherein a lot of people claim that they offer payment to bloggers who review advertisers' products, of course subject to approval. I got curious so I joined.

I submitted this blog for review and waited for its approval. Luckily, it was approved, and it took quite faster than I expected. Of course, with much excitement in me, I logged in to my account and surprisingly, I saw "No Jobs" available. I thought maybe they just ran out of jobs to offer bloggers. Days passed and I still got nothing. UP TO NOW, I never saw a single job available in their "View Jobs" tab.

I think I'm losing hope with Bloggerwave. Hopefully someone will enlighten me with this.

I recently upgraded my membership on DailyClicks from a free member to a premium member, and kudos to DailyClicks! It was all worth my money! I somehow regret now that I didn't upgrade when I had the chance. I guess all things done have their own causes and effects. But it wasn't really too late for me. I'm happy that I upgraded.

To know more why I upgraded, here is the link to my previous post regarding their premium membership: DailyClicks - Lowered Premium Membership Fee.

Happy clicking everyone!

It started fresh, during the New Year's Day, EgoldCashMaker emailed their members and informed us that starting January 1, 2008, they will also be accepting AlertPay as their payment option

This is a great news for AlertPay users who doesn't own an E-Gold account. But personally, I think that they would attract much more potential customers if they add PayPal as another payment option. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that they would, because a lot of online entrepreneurs use PayPal rather than E-Gold or AlertPay.

For another update on EgoldCashMaker, they raised their payment plan on Level 1 referrals. It was $0.50, now it's $1.00. This was made to further encourage people to refer at least 2 people to fill-up their 1st level on their forced 2x20 matrix.

Hopefully with these interesting updates, people would see the potential of this system. I myself am happy to become part of their program. No complains here so far.

DailyClicks has just offered a lowered premium lifetime membership fee from $15 down to $12 as a New Year's special promo. It is good until the 1st of February, 2008 only.

Here are the list of benefits when a free account is upgraded to a premium membership account:
  1. Earn 2 cents per click as compared to 1 cent per click on a free account.
  2. Earn 1 cent from your referral's clicks as compared to half a cent on a free account.
  3. Earn $1 when a referral upgrades to premium membership.
  4. Cashout will be lowered to $5.
Seems a very good deal to me, but I'll stick to my free account for now, and maybe upgrade later on. So stay tuned.

HAPPY CLICKING! I KNOW I AM!
