More Money Making Online


I want to take my discussion about making money online a little further and talk about as it applies to everyone not just how I’m going about it. Unless you are running a business online, I think the best way to make money online is to diversify. You should use as many ways to make money as you can. Do it by joining affiliate programs like Amazon.com or Clickbank, join opportunities that pay you to read e-mails, click ads, take surveys, or try offers. You make money blogging, writing articles or reviews for advertisers, putting text ads on your website or blog with companies like Google Adsense, AdBrite, Bidvertise, RevenuePilot and others.

When using paid to click ads and paid to read e-mail sites, I think it’s a waste of time if they pay less than one cent per click or e-mail. I know one cent isn’t a lot, but you don’t want to have to do two, three, four or even more clicks just to even get to the one cent.

Another thing I don’t think is a good idea do when trying to make money online is to pay to join an opportunity. A lot of these are scams or just aren’t right for most people. Sure there are some these programs that a handful of people will make money from, but it takes a certain kind of person to do it. Most of us aren’t that type of person. There are loads of opportunities out there that you don’t have to pay to join. In fact there are some that will even pay you to join.

I will admit that you won’t make a mountain of money from paid to click ads or paid to read e-mail sites. But by joining several of them and getting some active referrals you can make some pretty good extra cash. Now couple that with other ways of making money online and you are on your way to telling your 9 to 5 good-bye.

I haven’t even mentioned selling stuff at online auctions like Ebay or at webmalls, Amazon or even your own website.

All in all diversification is the way to go if you want to make money online. Just pick the ways that are best for you and go for it. And that says it all.

The Power Of Referrals

Before I begin with the topic of this post, I want to take a little time to give a huge thanks to Deborah Petersen over at Life in the Fast Lane for a great review about me and my art. I'm also honored that she would take the time to do it. You can read the post HERE.
Thank you so much Deborah.

Okay, joining free money making opportunities is a great way to earn some extra. As I mentioned yesterday most are easy things to do like getting paid to read emails, or clicking on ads, or even signing up for offers. Some of these opportunities even pay you to sign with them. But an even better way to make money from these opportunities is to get people to signup under you for them. These people will be your referrals and you make money from their activities. The reason I say this is better, is because you don’t have to work for this money.

I didn’t realize how valuable referrals can be until I checked Media Dollarz, an opportunity that I’m in, but had not done anything with for awhile and found that I had money awaiting me from referrals I didn’t even know I had. My referrals for Hits4Pay helped me to make my cash out amount a lot quicker than I would have without them.

How do you go about getting referrals? Well, can post your referral links on forums or places people can find your referral links on places like MyLot that actually pay to post discussions. You can create blogs or websites designed specifically to get referrals. You can pay as little as one cent per person to visit opportunities with your referral link at sites like Clix Sense, StormClix, WordLinx and others.

Over at my blog Mike’s Money Rants & Raves I’m purposing a referral trade. I will be your referral for one or more of your opportunities in trade for you being a referral for one or more of mine. Go to This Post for more information.

Referrals can make you a lot more money from an opportunity then you can make just doing that opportunity alone and nothing beats having other people helping you to make money. And that says it all.

Money Making Online

That’s how I what to make my living, making money online. There are several ways I’m trying to do just that. One way is blogging. There are a few ways to make money with your blogs. You put text ads on them with Google Adsense, Bidvertiser, Revenue Pilot, CrispAds and others. You can write reviews for advertiser from sites like PayPerPost, Blogvertise, Review Me, Smorty and others. If you have several blogs you can do the same reviews for each one and be paid several times for one review. You can also sell products and services from your blog. Another way I use blogs to make money is by getting referrals for money-making opportunities I’m in.

Another way I make money online is sell my art on auction sites Like Ebay and ArtByUs. Because of this I have my artwork all over the world. Something I don’t think I could have done otherwise. I’ve quite a few commissions through auctions too. I also sell my art at my website and my art blog. See the links in my sidebar.

I also make money online with paid to read email, paid to try offers, paid to write articles and paid to click ads sites. These aren’t things that you can make big money from, but put together and with some referrals you can make some good extra money or help pay a bill or two. I only join opportunities that are free to join or that pay you to join.

That’s the ways I’m making money online. You can use these same ways to make money online too. If you have some other ways you’re make money online that are free, I would like to hear them.

I’m going to try another way to make money online. Starting with this blog I will be asking for donations to help out an online entrepreneur, me. I saw on another blog concerning asking for donations that it doesn’t hurt to ask and if you don’t ask you definitely won’t get it. So if you're feeling generous look over in my sidebar for the donation button and make a donation. Any amount will be gratefully appreciated. And that says it all.
