New Year Money Makeing Resolutions

Posted by Holly On January - 1 - 2009

I have some great resolutions for the new year that I hope will help increase my income. I am always looking to try new things and I hope you are to.

My first resolution applies to this blog directly. The last few months I have not done much with this blog and I know that needs to change so I am now going to try to post at least twice a week. I know it’s not much, but I have 3 other blogs, and my forum. I’m also starting the Jewelry business and I’m takeing 5 classes this term. Pretty much I’m busy!

My next resolution is to spend at least 2 hours a day visiting other blog and forums and actually commenting and posting. I use to love to do this and have gotten away from it. It’s a great way to build links and traffic.

The last one is to try guest posting. I have not done this as I don’t believe I have enough experience in most areas to do so, but I think I may try to this year as I have learned a lot and there are a few areas I am knowledgeable in.

What money making resolutions do you have?

Get Traffic and Make Money

Posted by Holly On December - 29 - 2008

I’m sorry I have not posted in a while, I have not been feeling well and keeping up with all of my blogs has been very hard.

If you have a blog and are not getting much traffic you may want to take day or two to look at your old post. I know everyone tells you that you need to update every day, but I have found on a few of my blogs I don’t have to to get traffic as the information on them is something you can use at any time.

What I did do yesterday and today on my Interior Design blog was go back to older post and really look at my tags and keywords for them. I found many that were just silly tags that were not helping me at all and I found a few post that had no tags. Today my visitors jumped to double what I had been getting.

The other thing I did was insert adsence ad’s back into the top area of the blog, This has helped a lot with money and maybe some with traffic as Google had to come check out my site again. Since it seems that right now most people are busy and don’t have much time to look around online it is a good time to take a long look at your blog or even your website and see what it working and what is not. Good Luck!

I am very sorry I have not gotten to this sooner, I just have not had the time to add everything up until now, the good news is that I have a month off so next month I should be on time with this.

The following is what I have been paid in November

PJN July PromoPay Per Post: $144
Social Spark: $62.68
Pay u 2 Blog: $87
project wonderful (last and only payment) $5.31

I have to say I’m not happy with Novembers earnings at all, but I have to look at the economy and how that is. Some people online are effected by it, while others are not.

Finding A Home Business Online

Posted by Holly On December - 8 - 2008

I am usually very careful when looking for a home business online, you do get a lot of people that sell you things that just don’t work. Usually you spend a lot of money and you get nothing, not because it’s anything you did but usually it’s very hard to understand what it is you need to do or the information you bought is just not helpful or is written poorly, because of this I tend to stay away from most of these sites that claim they can give you a home business for any amount of money.

There is one site that is set up a lot like these other home business sites, it’s called Plug-In Profit Site and it interest me because it does offer something for free and it may be information that will help you, though i do suggest you check out the free information before you buy to see if it’s something you may like.

If your looking for a home business I suggest you check out Home Business Ideas a blog that gives you some really good information on home based business. This blog goes into more detail on online programs then I do and they really have some good information for someone just starting out with an online business.

I do advise when your looking for a home business of any kind that you do some research and find one that works for you. If your interested you can get your own Plug-In Profit Site just visit: http://www.HomeBusiness.us

Starting Another Home Based Business

Posted by Holly On December - 7 - 2008

I have decided to go ahead and start a jewelry business with Primer Designs. I’m excited about this and I plan on including what I make with them on my monthly statement. I also do plan on getting around to my November earnings post this week. It’s just been very crazy with everything going on with audits and school. Please forgive me if you’ve been looking for it.

I have found out that this company does require professional fees each year, but that is not a big deal to me as I will also have to pay them as a designer once I’m done with school. I have thought long and hard about doing this like anyone should when starting a business. I think it really will work out.

If you yourself are interested in selling Jewelry I suggest you check out their website and get in touch with someone in your area. If you live in lower Michigan you can always contact me next month.

Swat Cash Closeing

Posted by Holly On December - 1 - 2008

I really am sad to say that my favorate get paid to site is closeing. They have been a great site and great group of people for a long time and now they are done. I have to say I think the get paid to industry, in that area of it at least is probably done and over with. I still use one site but I have not done much with them in a while. Maybe I’ll start up again just to get my payout.

Things change and we all have to deal with them. I am just very happy that I found blogging before all of this. At one time the get paid to industry was all I had for money. This is why it is very important to have different forms of income, even if you have a real world job. You just never know.

Making Money Online Requires Time

Posted by Holly On November - 24 - 2008

Over the last 2 months I have not been able to put as much time into my blogs, website and other online indevors and I am now hurting for it. If you are new to online money making you really should think about how much time you actually have to put into all of this. Blogging takes a lot of time at first, eventually it’s not too bad, but until you reach at least the year mark plan on haveing to post on each blog you have a few times a day.

I have decided because I just don’t have time right now to get rid of one blog that I just am not able to maintan the way I want to. Most of what I write on it could go on my personal blog and I am planning on adding those post to that blog when I close it.

I have thought about selling it, but it doesn’t get much traffic though it does have pr, but it’s low. I figure it’s not worth much anyway so I’m just letting it go and not starting a new one. Blogging also can be very addicting so if you get started with it take the time it needs and try to control yourself or you’ll end up like me.
