do more ads bring in more earnings?

There's been a debate around the house regarding the number of Google ads one displays on one's site or blog.  One side of the house says that the more ads you display, the less income you will most likely get because the clicks you get on your ads get to be divided by their number.  The other side believes that by having more ads, you get more chances of getting clicks.  If you only display a few chances of being clicked are thin.  We have tried the first theory and I think we're not getting good results.

Maybe time to change strategies?

ads you wanna view

Hey, I noticed something cool about Google ads recently because there are times it sends you an ad to just type what sort of ad you wanna view.  Isn't that cool?

stingy when it comes to moolah

People who are born under the Year of the Rat are said to be a bit stingy with money.  That is what the Chinese calendar says.  Although rats have a lot of good traits, they are usually known for their negative characteristics.

2008 is Year of the Brown Rat.  In Western culture, rats had always been associated with being calculating, non-trusting, and sly.  Rats are looked upon as lowly creatures that thrive on the crumbs of others.

The Chinese however have a special reverence for rats because of their being quick-witted, resourceful, intelligent, and charming.  However, the stingy aspect of rats is also viewed as one of their bad traits.

heard about Opera?

I just found out about this  browser called Opera and boy, am I lucky.  I can now access the sites I haven't seen for a long time like Clixsense.  With Opera, I can access any site and it functions more efficiently than firefox.  I just love this discovery!

Network error? Weird...

For over a week now I haven't logged in to my http://www.clixsense.com/?2144411 account because it does not load up. I don't think it has anything to do with my internet because all other sites are okay.

For reasons which I am clueless, it almost always gives me the "Network error" message which I find weird. I could log in to all other sites except Clixsense. I'm close to payout so I am just wondering if it has anything to do with it.

Until now I am still clueless. Is the site trying to upgrade its system in our part of the world? I know that members from other parts of the world are not having this kind of trouble. I am really wondering about this.

7 months old

This blog is 7 months old but still traffic is scarce. It's one problem bloggers have to face. Blogs really don't seem to get that much traffic compared to websites that have real stuff like graphics, games, music, glitters etc. to offer. Blogs only make use of words which are not exactly enticing to some people especially if there is really nothing that is being said there. LOL.

we need visitors

I got 35 as the highest number of visitors I got for my site. But like the prices of commodities traffic here also fluctuates. I'd been having this blog for months now but traffic has remained a problem. If only we could make at least a hundred people come and visit our sites everyday, then that would be satisfying. But I guess we just have to wait some more and be patient until we strike the right key and be counted among those who are already having a deluge of traffic. Sounds impossible, right? But it would not really hurt you if you leave a comment or two each time you make a visit. It would be better if you also leave your url so you also get a return visit.

national ads

There's only one way to get some decent income for our TV show "at random" and it is by going national. Hopefully, when I have secured dvds of our past episodes we can make this happen.

Advertising is the lifeblood of any TV program and in the same way it also benefits advertisers as the program also gives visibility and increases product recall on the part of the target market. But in small cities like ours, some industries do not yet see the benefits of advertising. Some still believe it's only cashing out, period. They do not see the entire picture, the mutual gains that both the advertiser and TV show will get.

In the long run the more consumers see your product, the more likely that your brand or store gets remembered when they purchase such a product.

trying

Hey, I notice that the more frequent I blog, the better gets my traffic. It's not really one worth celebrating a drink yet, but it's certainly moving up. I mean my traffic and of course, I get a few clicks too. So it is indeed true what they they say that constant updates do bring positive results. Not really that huge, but at least, the numbers are getting better.

So how to gain traffic? One of them is constant updates. It could be a steep climb, but I guess it's worth trying.

How do you like the photo to go with this blog?

just an observation

I noticed recently that most ads from Google are no longer content-based. Like for instance I have around 4 blogs with different niches. For instance, my http://www.everydaywear.blogspot.com is all about public speaking, the English language, and teaching in general. My blog http://www.coolkidsparty.blogspot.com deals with happy occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, etc. I also have another blog http://www.speak4money.blogspot.com which contains all there is to talk about money. Still another one contains all my rants as a human being.

However, most times the ads that get crawled here are no longer relevant to the content of the blog. I am really wondering about this.

Payperpost pays high

It's the current buzz in forums. Payperpost appears to be one of the highest paying sites in cyberworld. You can sign up for membership free plus a $20 sign up bonus if your initial post gets their nod.

You may want also want to use it to advertise your product or service by having it reviewed by its corp of seasoned bloggers. This is just one cool way to promote your business with very minimal cost.

Bloggers can actually turn words into money by simply writing about the products or services of its advertisers. I mean, we blog everyday, we use words everyday for nothing. Getting paid to do something you love to do is just like the best opportunity for you.

Right now I am working on my first $20 from Payperpost. See? It is not really an effort to be talking about something that everybody wants.



We want some real good income, then this one is for us. You can actually bank on Payperpost. A friend of mine recently earned as much as $500 this month doing what she loves to do and that is blogging.

I do not why I did not start earlier. I would have been enjoying the benefits of being an active member of this cool site. Anyway, I am casting my first post and I want you guys to do the same. What are you waiting for? It's just a click away. Blog and get paid.

No Clix Found

The whole day yesterday the internet was going crazy so we in the house weren't able to do any tasks at all. It's zero, as in zero, in everything. Today, however, is a good day because the internet is back and so I eagerly logged on to Clixsense and Mylot. I had difficulty at first getting into Clixsense, but Mylot was easily accessible. After a number of tries, I was finally able to log on to my Clixsense account and found nothing but this notice "No Clix Found" each time I went to browse for ads. And I am talking about the whole time. Hmmmmm.....

Clixsense problem

I am actually nearing payout at http://www.clixsense.com/?2144411 but I wonder why for two or three days now I could not possibly log on to the site. I can access other sites but clixsense just refuses to load. I did not have such a problem in the past but just when I am about to complete my minimum payout the site says "connection is timed out" or something like that. It's weird. I asked other members about this but they say that they are not having any problems in their area, so it is just me.

Anyone of you who have an answer?

cute-spot.com coming back

A glitters and graphics site http://www.cute-spot.com will be revived very soon and the first few visitors will get cool prizes. Check out the site and greet your friends and loved ones using cute greetings from this site. Everything is free. The site also has games for all ages. Go, tour the site and if you know how to use html codes you will be able to get some of those nice stuff there which you could use in your own site or profile.

rent vs.paying for your own

Renting a house can be very costly in the long run as owners can always increase the rent anytime a house is vacated. A house developer may be able to solve the problem of high rent if you take advantage of its offer. Getting a loan to have a house of your own will prove to be more profitable to you in the final analysis. You practically pay the same fixed amount for the rest of the paying period which is not bad.

updating one's blog

When one has a lot of time in his hands daily updates on one's blog is not a problem. But when one is short of time and has got myriads of other tasks to do offline, updating comes not so often anymore.

I used to do daily updates here but lately offline tasks have taken up a lot of my time and I'd be lucky to do weekly updates. However today I vow to come as often as I can, just type some few things to say like what I'm doing now.

I think I need to put in more effort to be able to do this. We'll see about this.

finding one's passion

I only realized now that teaching isn't really my passion. Now after 26 years of teaching I have finally made the discovery which should have happened 20 years ago, that what I'd been doing for the past many years was a mistake. I should have started my new venture a long time ago, but probably everything has a reason. Perhaps the waiting had to happen now when I already have two grown children to back me up in my new television career.


Yup, it's never too late for anyone to pursue a passion. It's what I am doing now and I enjoy every minute of it.

Clixsense woes

What's with Clixsense? I noticed a slowdown lately in the number of sites they send as I near the payout period. Or, am I just imagining things? Trust me, sites to click now come in trickles. I know they want everyone to upgrade but I am not doing it. Although I am a non-premium member but I am always here for the clicks.

why are banks aggressively pushing these credit cards?

Are credit cards a bane or boon? It depends on which side you are. If you're one who is a delinquent user of these cards, then it could be your daily nightmare.

Are credit card companies making good in this business when there seems to be a lot of disgruntled customers and bad debts? Must be, if not, then why are banks freely giving away credit cards to its clients who are in good standing?

My sister received not just one but a multiple of credit cards from various banks. She was surprised because she did not apply for them. Another friend also was handed a pre-approved credit card which she did not ask for. Does this mean that business is doing well with these credit card companies? Hmmm.....makes me not wanna think about it.

is Paypal really working here?

There had been a lot of buzz and hype lately about Paypal now in operation in the Philippines. It means that members in the Philippines can now receive payments via Paypal. I checked it though, went to one of the local banks who gave me that "What are you saying?" look when I mentioned Paypal. The people at that bank never even heard of the term! What is this? Is this the day of the dark ages? Are we yet in caves?

So I just told the bank personnel to just forget it and left the bank feeling so stupid for asking such a silly question.

So what are we saying here? Is Paypal really working in the Philippines? How and which part of the Philippines, which bank, etc? This is really downright crazy.
