I was checking some of my blogger friends latest blog updates today when I read a great news of one of my friend who recently received a huge payout out from a sponsored post opportunity. She earned $400 in just one single blog post with 2 links for 200 words. Now that's really a huge WOW!    I remember a few months ago, I also received a rare sponsored post opportunity from Sponsored Reviews. The offer was actually $200 for a post and even though I earned only 50% o since the site keeps 50% of the earnings but $100 is not bad for a 200 word article, right? I keep on praying that I can still receive such opportunities like this. It is really possible that you can earn big in blogging. :)

I attended a workshop about SEO a few weeks ago and I am so thankful for this event because I learned a lot on how I could get more out from my blogs. I was asked by one of the speakers about my expectations from this workshop and I told everyone that even though I have many blogs and Ive been blogging for 2 years now, I still consider myself as a newbie in blogging because I actually don't know much about search engine optimization.  Yeah I can search for answers in Google but its quite different when an SEO expert will explain to you personally. You can ask some questions and you can easily get an answer. I listened carefully to each of the speakers and even wrote down the important information out from the lessons that Ive learned.      The objectives of the workshop was to determine how to make our blogs better through SEO, understand the basic SEO principles and strategies, apply this strategies on our blogs and also acquire an insider knowledge or shall we say

I got this word "domainaholic" from one of my dear blogger friend Ate Vernz. She's also a certified domain addict like me. We inherit it from the "Angel of our Domain Blogs" Mommy Rubz hehe! As of now I'm managing 14 blogs and even though I could not able to update my blogs everyday, I'm so thankful to Mr. Google for the recent PR updates because my travel blog, dieting and weight loss and one of my general blog got a PR 2 rank and the rest are PR 1. Most of my blogs are new ones and I'm so glad that all of them are doing great. Now Ive got 3 new blogs coming up. It's gonna be my entertainment, technology and shopping blog. What else do I have in mind? Nah I still have to focus on these three blogs. It's actually not that easy to start up a new blog since it takes a lot of time and effort.Yeah it's really time consuming and brain draining but its worthy when you see your blogs doing a great job specially when its accepted by some direct

It’s kind of an odd thing being a stay at home mom most of the time. There’s a lot to get done every day, and never enough time. We could drive ourselves crazy with stress, but we'd be better off  in figuring out how to make the most of being a stay at home mom. With the right perspective and some good family support,  it’s actually a lot of fun. The parts where our kids are silly and we get to see them within our reach are always fun, but some days we wish that the stress and the noise would give us a break. Being a stay at home mom right now doesn’t mean that we should neglect our career entirely. We do have a lot of options right now.  We just have to make the most of these opportunities. This is important even if you think you’ll always be a stay at home mom. None of us know what the future holds that's why we should prepare in other ways financially as well, but keeping up some sort of jobs for stay at home moms or running a home business can mean a lot in the long run.

Now that my 4th blog was recently got approved by Sheriff, I am now thinking of creating new blogs again. As of now I am maintaining 8 blogs but one of them is this main blog of mine from blogspot. 4 of my blogs was already on Sheriff's system while the remaining blogs are still new ones. I wanted to create another one since one of Sheriff's blog requirement is it would be at least 3 months old and their guideline is a blogger can add one blog a month up to a total of 12 . That means I still have to create 4 new blogs, LOL! I am thinking of creating a business blog because I wanted to share my experiences as a young entrepreneur as well as how I handle my finances and how I am able to manage it. I also like to create a computer gaming blog. My hubby is an expert on this thing but he doesn't like to blog about it so I will be the one who will do the blogging and talking as if I am a high techie expert. hahaha! Another niche blog running in my mind is the health and fitness

Aside from all those blog updates and pending tasks that I need to finish with, what made me busier these days is because I am setting up another blog which will talk about parenting and motherhood. I'm still searching for some nice free templates online that could fit my blogs niche. I am still halfway to go before I could finish it. Now I am thinking of creating another one which will be my home and living blog since we recently bought a house and lot here in our place. I'm sure it will be an exciting journey for me and my family as I'm going to blog about it when we move to our new home soon. These 2 new blogs will be my 7th and 8th blog. I know its not that easy to create a new blog since it requires so much time and effort to build, construct and monetize it. Running multiple blogs indeed takes a lot patience, devotion and a lot of persistence if you want to do it right. But if you take a look at its positive side and you want to maximize your money earning potential

I actually have 3 blogs including this one  with the same niche wherein its a combination of personal and general interest or simply what we call a mixed bag of anything and everything that interests me. I also have a food, drink and at the same time a culture blog. I have another niche blog for fashion, beauty and lifestyle. I am actually planning to add some more niche blogs for family, parenting, motherhood and kids. I also like to write about home improvements, shopping and women issues. I still have some niche blogs in mind but I just find it hard to do it such as travel since I don't travel a lot. I also like having my own photo blog but sad to say I don't have that DSLR cameras yet. Reviewing products and sharing information such as web marketing, SEO, blogging, networking and other business related topics is not on my list of interest too. For us bloggers, niche blogging has to be something that we love. We must have a passion for it. This blog works for me because I

We all know how Payu2blog has been a good company to write for that's why many bloggers really love Sheriff and I'm also thankful that I am one of those happy payu2-blogger right now. ^_^ As of now I have 3 blogs  added in their system. The first one took me around 6 months before it was finally approved while the other 2 just took me a few days. I did not even know about the blogging guideline where a blogger can only add 1 blog a month up to the limit of 12 blogs. I was just trying perhaps, by chance  because I believe that it follows the rules and agreement in order to get approved. And surprisingly, Margie immediately approved my 2 blogs since it's kind of between February and March that's why she added both today.  I am once again thankful to God for His great favor and overflowing blessings that He continue to shower me this year. This is indeed the Year of the Lord's favor for me specially for my blogging career. As of now I am managing 6 blogs and I am

I greatly thanked God for all the blessings He had given me these days specially on all those successive payments that I recently received from Paid to Blog sites that Ive joined. I consider these as my Christmas Bonus! Yippee! Now I can buy some special gifts for my loved ones, for my extended family , for my godchildren and for our fellow church members. I am happy and contended of what I have right now. So this time, I want to share my blessings to others. That's what Christmas is all about right? ^_^  Anyway, here are my payment proofs:  5th payment from Blogsvertise 10th payment from Inpostlinks My one time payment from Sponsored Reviews  My first and last payment from Social Spark V1

My special thanks to Mommy Kat of Mom’s Place because if not with her post about her payment received from Social Spark V1, I would not be able to cash out my earnings too. I never know that SocialSpark v1 has officially been retired and it was replaced by the new SocialSpark v2. I'm glad that Social Spark V1 has been releasing funds to all their members, even if the earnings did not reach the minimum payout amount which is $50.00. I have $32.50 in my account so I immediately sent a message to their customer support yesterday requesting for my cash out and voila! I received it today. Wow! that was fast! It was actually my first and my last payment. I only receive few opportunities that's why it took me months to earn some money from them. Well, I hope that the new version of Social Spark will offer more paid opportunities for me. :) Thanks again Mommy Kat for the info and to Social Spark!

Ive been complaining about my payment from SponsoredReviews because I did receive any payment from them since I started writing several paid posts a few months ago.  Ive been waiting for my payment for more than 3 months now. I always keep on following up my complaint and thanked God they finally heard it though it took a long time.  I received my very 1st payment today worth $30. Thanks SponsoredReviews!

My blog was approved by SponsoredReviews a few months ago and I already made several paid posts from advertisers who wants to review and promote their products and services. I have been waiting for my payment for more than 5 months now and I still did not receive any single payment from them. I already sent a support ticket asking them when it will be cashed out because Ive waited for several weeks during its releasing of payment. From what Ive understood on their payment release, they pay every 2 weeks or on a bi-weekly basis for reviews completed in that 2 week period. They said that I will be paid within 14 days of submitting the completed review URL. Judy, one of the customer service staff replied to my message and said that she is not sure why I haven't received any payment. Before payment is issued all completed reviews must be live. They are all redirecting this and she said that it must be corrected immediately. I sent another message to follow up on my inquiry and Judy

I signed up on SponsoredReviews a few months ago and I already made several paid posts from advertisers who wants to review and promote their products and services. I have $25.00 current earnings in my account and I have been waiting for this payment for more than 2 months now and I still did not receive it through my Paypal account.

While most of my blogger friends here are loaded with lots of paid opps and busy in writing reviews so they make it for the deadline, I am one of the bloggers who doesn't have much paid opportunity available since I'm still waiting for my blog to get approved from Sheriff . However, I am still thankful that there are some direct advertisers who wants to buy a sponsored post from me. I feel so happy and proud of myself because even if I am not a good blogger and writer, they are still interested to advertise and promote their product on my blog. What I love about direct advertising is that I can set my own rate and I can utilize variable pricing to fit for these specific advertiser. I also have a direct contact with my advertisers and this would  help increase the likelihood of having long-term relationships and arrangements with them. While some advertising  brokers only allows to receive payment once a month, with direct advertising, it allows us to determine how we want to g

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of IZEA . All opinions are 100% mine. I asked some information from my fellow mommy blogger about SocialSpark when I saw her posts and product reviews made. She told me that SocialSpark gives us an opportunity to earn money online just by reviewing some products and blog about it. She had been payed several times that's why I did not hesitate to signed up too. Registration is fast and easy because it only took me less than 15 minutes to complete the whole process. Reviewing products not only gives us the opportunity to earn money online but is also one way of telling  our readers to try things that are new to them which in return will give them satisfaction or may even make their lives easier and better. Just like any other blogger, I am interested in reviewing products if I believe in it only. Product review is easy ,only if you take it seriously and without any hesitation about it for being a good one. Even if there are a nu

I saw this blog posted and shared in Facebook by Mommy Pehpot and I am glad to see her payment proof from this Paid to Blog site named Ebuzzing where it allows bloggers to monetize their blog and money by blogging in support of campaigns initiated by their advertisers. When you sign up, just submit your blog and wait for their approval. I signed up yesterday but I am still having some problems in signing up because I can't find the number of page views per month from my blog, the amount of pages views per month and the number of readers registered to my RSS feed. If you know where to find it, could you please help me my friends? Thanks! By the way, the minimum payment for an article is 10€.You can also use ebuzzing direct and set your own price at which you will write articles. You will be paid by the 15th of the month. You will have from the first business day of the month up until the 14th of the same month to request payment When your article is validated by ebuzzing, th

I admit I am not a good writer and I am just a newbie when it comes to writing some articles. It has been my problem for some time now when there are paid task opportunities available for me to write but I have no idea on this certain topic since I am not familiar on it and I haven't experience it specially when it comes on writing some  paid reviews and  in recommend a product or services. I can do some research on it but it seems like I am also learning what is that subject all about so its quite hard for me to write since I can't just copy those written articles from other sites. It has to be original with my personal thoughts and opinions in it. I know there are many of you my blogger friends  here who are "expert" enough in doing this things. I hope you can help me out and I hope you could give me some an advice on how to improve my writing skills. Your help and advice is very much appreciated. Thank you so much!

I am just reading some posts of fellow mommy blogger friends in Facebook about getting paid by Sheriff from the paid opps and tasks they did. I am ashamed to asked them about Sheriff because I feel like I am out of place from their conversations since they are already talking about their payouts, where they have so many opps to write and they should do it before the deadline while others are wanting for more paid opps from Sheriff. I thought Sheriff was a private client but I found out while doing my blog hop rounds from a post on one of my fellow mommy blogger here that they are all referring to PayU2blog . Some of my mommy friends told me about the requirements on How to Get my Blog approve by Sheriff: * A wordpress customized blog. Meaning, a wordpress with a .com domain. * Your blog should be at least 3 months old, with a minimum of 30 posts * Your blog must be in English * Your blog must not have any other form of advertisements, i.e. Nuffnang, Adsense, Entrecard, Infolinks, e

Well, literally we are planning to have an additional member for our family but it's not yet this time. What I mean is that I am now on the process of adding a new blog!woohoo! I actually won a free domain name  few weeks ago from Domain Angel's Domain Give away and I want to use this domain for my new blog. But I don't know how to transfer this domain from  my godaddy account  to my new blog in blogspot. I am still asking for help of Mommy Rubz who is the author of The Domain Angel . Many of my blogger friends here are telling me to add a new blog using my own domain so I can grab more paid opportunities and tasks online. When it's already done, I still have to take some time to beautify it and I also need some linky love from all of you. I would be very glad if you could also follow my new baby soon. Thanks a lot my friends!
