I signed up for PayPerPost!!

Many of us bloggers are looking for more ways to earn money from our blog. Here is an exciting new opportunity that I came across. The site is called PayPerPost. This is a place where you can get paid to blog. If you're anything like me, then you already enjoy posting to your blog. Now with PayPerPost you are given an opportunity to make money just by posting to your blog. The approval process is pretty easy. They require that your blog be at least 90 days old and also your blog must be active. This means that you're actively posting to your blog. This should be easy to do especially if you enjoy keeping your blog updated like I do.

PayPerPost is a great way to start earning more money from your blog. One of the best things that I love about PayPerPost is that with your first posting opportunity, you're given the opportunity to earn $20.00, which is a good amount for some extra cash. You also have the opportunity to choose from several other posting opportunities that are available to you.

Update: Blogshares has become a great success for my blog!!

Blogshares is the fantasy stock market for blog owners. When I first signed up, I had no idea what it was really about. Now I do and it's great! The concept of Blogshares is to earn enough chips and blogshare money to be able to get more links back to your blog from other member blogs. Once I discovered this it became hard for me to stop playing the game. Once you sign up, you are given 20 chips and $5oo.00 in blogshare cash to spend. The best way to spend your blogshare cash is to buy shares at low prices and sell them at high prices. It's just like the real stock market.

Once you gain more blogshare cash and chips, you'll be able to get involved in "missions". The main "mission" that I'm involved in is the "link exchange" mission. This is where you're able to interact with other players who would like to do a link exchange with you. Many players will offer you 1000's of chips or blogshare cash just to place a link on your blog to their blog. It's just that simple! You will earn your chips and extra blogshare cash as soon as they see the link placed on your blog. While this is a great way to earn more chips and more blogshare cash, it's also a great way to be able to start your own mission and buy links to your blog on other player blogs as well. There are many people who have blogs with high pageranks that will definitely get your blog more exposure with Google.

So far, I've earned plenty blogshare cash and chips that I would be willing to share with anyone that signs up for blogshares through this post. I will give each person 100 chips to help get started in blogshares. Each chip in blogshares is worth $23million in blogshares cash that you can sell to other players who are looking to buy more chips. This is a great way to start getting more traffic and building more links back to your blog. It's given my blog a boost in traffic since yesterday. My goal is to gain popularity with my blog so that I may be able to take on more of the "paid to blog" jobs that are available.

Once you sign up through this blogshares link, just leave me a comment here on my blog with your blogshares user id and I will give you the 100 chips to get started.

Link Me Up Scotty posted a review about my blog!!

I would like to let everyone know that the Link Me Up Scotty system worked. I checked back to his blog and there I saw the post linking to my blog, Start Earning. I was very excited to read the review that was posted about my blog. The best thing about it is that his review of my blog was the very first post that I saw once his blog page came up. This is something good for me because the first visible post on any blog is the main one that you will become drawn to. He gave my blog a very good review that should send more visitors to my blog. His idea on link exchanging is a great way to build links and gain popularity in the blogosphere.

Reciprocal Linking Reviews Helps Your Blog Get Noticed

Here is something you should jump on.

Jack Humphrey is always providing some good advice when it comes to Web 2.0 and building links. He said to check out a different kind of web 2.0 link building technique started by Alex over at HowtoSpoter.com. This is a great chance to get incoming links if you do it right.

This is a very easy technique that I never would have even thought of. By reviewing other helpful sites, you're able to discover more information that will be useful for yourself and also that you'll be able to share with others. By sharing with others, they will click on your link which will bring you more valuable links back to your website or blog.

The key is to copy and paste each of the website reviews below in a post on your blog. Simply replace the "reviewed by" with your name that includes a link to your blog or website. Below are the list of sites that were included in the list that I came across. Before I added my name to the "reviewed by" area, I actually visited the website and came up with my own review of the site, to keep things honest. The process still works the same if it's done the right way.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT LINKBAITING IS?

There's a new word in the online world's that's gaining a lot of attention. Linkbaiting has fast become a buzz word to describe a host of practices that can help publishers increase their incoming traffic.

The word linkbaiting is relatively new, but the practices it now defines are not. The term itself is used to describe a number of measures that publishers take to gain incoming links to their websites or blogs. Some of these measures are considered rather legitimate, but not all are. A few of the practices that fall under this new term's focus include creating awards programs or contests, writing comments on high-traffic blogs or forums, giving other publishers tools or links to your site, creating high-quality content and so on.

The word itself might have a shady rap in the web world, but many of the measures involved are not bad. It's a simple fact that most publishers enjoy earning incoming links since they can increase traffic. In turn, the traffic spikes can boost a site's money-making abilities. Due to this, many SEO businesses are even providing linkbaiting services to help their clients gain links. The reality is linkbaiting in and of itself isn't good or bad... it's all in how it's used.

In spite of its rocky reputation, linkbaiting has become a fairly popular practice. The reasons for this are many. The biggest is the traffic and potential income gains that can be realized. The second factor involves this practice's ability to help increase a site's page ranking. Since part of the page ranking formula involves incoming links, this practice can be very valuable.

Before diving into a linkbaiting campaign, it's a good idea for publishers to understand a few things. The first is that an increase in traffic is great for a website or blog. The second is an increase in traffic that sends people to pages that are not useful, interesting or informative is not. For linkbaiting to really pay off, new traffic needs to be encouraged to return.

The number of different measures that fall under the linkbaiting definition are many. Some of the more common and generally non-shady ideas include:

1. Offering up tools for other sites to use
2. Writing good content
3. Offering useful information
4. Sponsoring awards programs and contests and even providing a bit of humor and fun. The best linkbaiting ideas involve drawing natural links via the creation of a good site and/or useful tools. It's that simple.

Linkbaiting has become a "bad word" in many circles, but the basic concept behind it is really simple. Those who tend to do best with the practice are publishers that actually provide their readers with something they want.

Bloggerwave Paid Me!!

After almost three weeks, I've finally been paid by Bloggerwave. I wrote two post on my blog and was paid $20.00 for both of them. Once I logged into my Bloggerwave account today, I noticed that my blogger dashboard showed that I had been paid $20.00 for my two posts. I was very excited to see this. Once I checked my paypal account, I saw where the funds had been transfered to my account earlier today. What a great way to earn some extra money on the internet. Now, I'm waiting for more posting opportunities to come my way so that I can start earning even more money.
