When I am bored with all my paying sites I take a time off and read a lot. I love reading maerials that can make my blog more useful. I subscribe to numerous blogs that talks about selling, SEO, keyword optimization and the likes. My two favorite Interenet marketer is Darren Rowse (which gives me a lot of photography techniques) and Brad Callen (who made my link building activity a lot easier).
When I am offline, I am usually at the arms of my rowdy boys.

pehpot's comment on Internet Payday ...
This is a SCAM
I paid for the trial, didn't receive anything, was billed $78 without me knowing it (they say it was in their Terms Of Use, I've read it, it is there alright, but how it was worded was very misleading, so you would still be surprised about this billing), canceled my subscription (or at least, tried to), was billed AGAIN, contacted support to clear things up, was shouted at by a support person and now I'm still furious about Internet Payday. And yes, no sign of the refund.
That's about how I would sum up my experience with this scam site. The owner should be ashamed of himself trying to make money by scamming people who only want to earn a living. If there is a rating lower than F I'd give it to this. This is just a waste of Internet space, I hope that people are not being scammed anymore by this Joel. Anyone planning to file a class action lawsuit? Count me in. Let's put this guy where he deserves to be. In jail.
pehpot's comment on Easy PDF Maker ...
Easy Peasy PDF Maker
This is a pretty good product to get if you don't like (or need) all the bells and whistles that other more advanced PDF makers offer. I only need the most basic options, so I settled for this myself. I have tried some free PDF makers, but I was not satisfied with the end result. Sometimes, when the document is very long, it would get cut off; other times, the styling and the layout is not preserved, and it does not look good to read. With this product, I was able to make PDFs without having to deal with those issues. I don't know if this would be good for making lots of PDFs at a time, as I have only tried making one every week or so. I would recommend this for those who want to make PDFs as simple and as fast as possible. Nothing fancy here (it doesn't even claim to be all that), so don't go bashing this product for it's simplicity. It's great as it is, and if you want something more advanced, I suggest you go look for another product.
pehpot's comment on SEO Secret Recipe ...
I Learned A Lot From It
Being a newbie to optimizing my sites for search engines (although I have been blogging for a while now, but only for personal purposes), I found SEO Secret Recipe a good source of basic information. I don't know why the not so good feedback on this product. I guess the product being titled that way, experts on SEO expected something more than what they already know. But for a newbie, this is really helpful. Admittedly, the contents of the sales letter was somewhat over the top for my taste. I wished it was not that way, as it will be more believable if it toned down the hype a little (okay, a lot). But this is solid information right here. It's very easy to understand, which is why you will know that this is made for newbies. Overall, I suggest that if you're already experienced, do not waste your money on this product as you will only be disappointed. But for people like me who are just starting out, I would recommend this product as a good place to start.
pehpot's comment on Site Profit Bot ...
It's All I Will Ever Need For My Niche Sites
I tell you, having more than just one site is a LOT of work. Especially during the early days, when I have to set up, design, provide enough fresh content to keep visitors coming and get them indexed by search engines. I didn't know about Site Profit Bot then, so imagine I had to do everything manually. And although I get help from friends, it still doesn't take away the fact that it gets tedious after a while. This product helped me in more ways than one, and I love it that although the price point is quite steep on first glance, the benefits that Site Profit Bot will give you, plus the fact that products updates are forever free from the date of purchase, makes it a VERY wise investment. Support is very accommodating. I ran into a couple of problems the first time I used it, but one email from them was all I needed to get the program running like I want it to.
pehpot's comment on Headway Themes ...
WordPress Design Gets Better And Easier With Headway
I thought I would have everything I need with the Thesis theme, which I reviewed earlier. But a friend introduced me to Headway, and it was love at first sight. It's as clean as Thesis, but more easily customizable, in my opinion. It is now a pain-free process for me whenever I want to change the look of my WordPress blogs with the help of Headway. Before, it ate a lot of my time just trying to make my sites look professional and pleasing to the eyes. Now I can focus more on producing good content which attracts visitors and retains them. I have different niches, and I can style them to fit the theme without so much fuss using Headway. The dashboard navigation, like Thesis, is a love. Anyone who knows how to click a mouse can set up a great looking design in an hour or so. The support for the product I cannot say anything but great things about, as they have responded promptly to all my queries regarding installation, even if it was already in the tutorials. I think that with Thesis and Headway, there is no need for any other WordPress do-it-yourself theme ever again.
pehpot's comment on 10 Minute Opt-In Success ...
For Less Than $10 Dollars This Is Good
Any more expensive and I would have graded this a C, even a D, but since it's just $7.77, I rate this a B. As several other reviewers pointed out, we only get what we pay for, so if you pay cheap, you don't get everything with it. It has some solid points, good enough for the price that you paid for it, but it's not all that, so don't get your hopes up especially after reading the sales pitch. The ideas that Savoie puts forward do not always sit well with me, as I have tried some of them and KNOW that they do not work, but there are several techniques which I haven't read of before that I am definitely going to try for myself to see if they really work. I HAVE made money following some of his tips, so I got back what I forked out for this product already and some more, so that in itself is enough for me to rate this pretty good. This would be best bought by newbies in order to be satisfied with the product, but for people who have been around the scene for a while and who know where to go to find the information laid out here for FREE, then you'd be best to keep your money.
pehpot's comment on Wealthy Affiliate ...
Didn't Have Any Success With This
I was with them for about a month before I finally gave up. I had high hopes for this program because I read so much about how amazing it is, how it helped a lot of people on their way to success. Well, I didn't get the results that I expected from it. I don't blame the program though. I think the main reason why I failed is that it is too much information for me, more than I dare take in this time around. I was lost more often than not, and was thrown in a sea of information that made my head spin. I guess if I was a more dedicated affiliate than I am today, I would see the positive results that other people are seeing from Wealthy Affiliate. Maybe a couple of years into this field and I'd be willing to try this again. Don't get me wrong, the support is pretty good compared to other places, and I learned a lot from the people in the forums who give out useful information for free, but I don't think I will miss this one a lot. But as I said, maybe I'd give this another shot in the near future.
pehpot's comment on Maverick Money Makers ...
Pricey, But Delivers
I'm new in the affiliate marketing field, so I wanted to learn everything that I can before jumping on the bandwagon. Maverick Money Makers was a recommendation by a friend, so I tried it, since I trust my friend well enough to follow her suggestions. I was floored by the very ideas that Mack puts forward in the videos on his website. I watched most of them with great interest and am planning to watch the rest when I have the time. I like it that Mack shares useful information even if we haven't paid for the biz-opp yet. That's saying something, as most require payment upfront before you can lay your hands on any remotely useful information. So I went forward and purchased it, and I have never regretted my decision. I'm not exactly a million richer because of his system, but it helped me tons in getting started, and I know that I will be depending on Maverick Money Makers as my primary source of effective affiliate marketing information for a long time to come. It doesn't come easy, being an affiliate marketer. Becoming a member does not guarantee you overnight success with affiliate marketing. It is only an application of the information revealed in this system coupled with hard work and dedication that you will be able to get anywhere.
pehpot's comment on Data Money Online ...
A Total Rip-Off
Why I'm a sucker for data entry jobs that turn out to be complete scams I don't know. But I have an experience to share and I want to share it because I don't want you guys to experience the same. So read. Like most data entry scams, this is not what it says it is. You enter data, yes, but for affiliate marketing. And you don't get paid unless you manage to sell. So this scheme is commission-based. If you're good at it, then great for you, but if you're not and you were expecting real data entry, then please do not fall for this. I worked with my bank to prevent them from ripping off my hard-earned money and thankfully it worked, although the initial $7.95 went through. Well, that's all they are going to get from me. And I hope that even that small an amount they don't rip off from you. My advice is, if you have already given your credit card details, call your bank ASAP and tell them you have already canceled your account with this scam site (which you should do first, of course) to help you prevent them from billing you anything.
pehpot's comment on International Data Entry At Home Institute ...
Yet Another Data Entry Scam
I fall for these type of scams easily because they promise a lot for a little work. Typical human nature to desire something that good. I feel stupid now for falling into this. I couldn't get this working for me so first thing I did was contact support. I waited a couple of days, and just when I was about to give up, they responded back. Is that a good thing? No. I told them this is too confusing for me and I want my money back, they gave me a number which was supposed to confirm that they have in fact refunded my money. I called my card company to check if this is true. It isn't. I tried contacting them again, they might have given me one wrong number and it might have been an honest mistake. Well, nobody's responded to me ever since. But fortunately, I wasn't billed because I was patient enough to follow up with my card company and explain to them my situation. Just a thought. Why would any company pay people to review their website? It says there at the bottom of the sales page. If people are seeing positive results from your product, they should be more than happy to make a testimonial without a dime. Hmm...
pehpot's comment on My-Data-Team ...
SCAM with a capital S C A M
Is it spelled clearly enough for you? This is one of the first programs I purchased in an attempt to get into the data entry field. First off, this is NOT data entry. It is called affiliate marketing, yet people are led to believe that if you can type, you can earn. No people. It does NOT depend on how fast you can input data. It depends on how many people click on the advertisements that you will put up. Second, you can find the information that MyDataTeam offers for free on other sites (just Google it) and they are much more easier to understand and will probably bring you better results if you're good at affiliate marketing. The first thing I did after I found out that it was useless was research if anybody else had the same experience as me. There were tons, and one advised me to contact my credit card company in order to avoid billing for something I found absolutely no use for. I was lucky enough to call my card company fast enough for them to cancel my transaction with MyDataTeam, so all I wasted on this was my time, but it's precious all the same so I'm still somewhat pissed off.
pehpot's comment on Day Job Killer ...
Still Killing (Some) Day Jobs
This used to be a perfect system. But Google has changed the rules already (and they can, so we all have no choice but to follow it to a T), and some of the methods in this system as mentioned in the official review is just not viable anymore. What I like about this product is that the methods put forward are bold, which is what affiliate marketing tactics should be all about. This is not for beginners, so if you made the mistake of purchasing it early in your affiliate marketing career, you can still keep it as future reference when you know a lot more about the business. I wish they had an updated version though, for the current Google rules that we have to play. But so far I have not heard anything new about this product. If I had, I would definitely one of the first in line to get a copy and reap it's benefits. McNeeney has done this in the past, so I hope he can inject new ideas to Day Job Killer and come out with it for everyone to benefit from. Just keep in mind that this is not a fail-proof system that the ebook is suggesting. It still depends on your own strategies combined with McNeeney's techniques for it to work for you.
pehpot's comment on Nomad's Guide to Make Money Online ...
The Missing Piece In My Puzzle
I am no nomad, but I found Janet Smith's guide really useful and effective. I learned from her the potential of niche blogging, which is why I put up several niche sites of my own and I am currently working on increasing traffic to them also with the help of this awesome guide. I like it that Janet does not offer her readers an easy way of making money, as I believe that everything is reaped only through hard work. I heard that you can find most information in this ebook for free online if you know where to look, but honestly, I don't have the time, nor the patience, to hunt them all down. This guide allowed me to start with what I needed to do right away, doing away with the countless hours of research that I chose to spend on better things. I like it that I don't have to go through the trial and error process because the guide saves me from doing that. Can you now imagine how much time I have saved and how I am making money sooner than I expected because I chose to spend wisely on the Nomad’s Guide to Make Money Online? I highly recommend this product!
pehpot's comment on Super Affiliate Trainer ...
Great For A Newbie Like Me
I've learned more from Ewen's videos than all the other courses I've taken on being an affiliate marketer so far, and that's saying something because I have been trying to understand affiliate marketing for some time now. I found his video lessons to be very, VERY easy to understand, and even before I viewed those ten videos that I got the chance to see and learn a lot from the very basics of affiliate marketing that he also offered as FREE video lessons. Since I am also a newbie to WordPress, I clung to his every word in the video guides that he kindly provided like it was the only thing that could save me. And I tell you, I learned TONS from those little pieces of gems. I've been wanting to learn redirection, and I learned that within the system as well. What can I say, but THANK YOU to Ewen who made these videos really easy to learn from and was generous enough to give them away for free. I know that I will still be clueless about affiliate marketing if not for Super Affiliate Trainer, so I give this product an A for that!
pehpot's comment on Super Traffic Method ...
I Love Kris Mainieri For This
I easily fall for $1 trials because, well, they're just a dollar and I can always cancel anytime if I didn't find the service or product worthy of my money and time. A LOT of them turn into scams, most I can't even cancel my subscription on, some of them are so-so products, and occasionally I stumble upon a goldmine. Kris Mainieri's Super Traffic Method falls into the last category, and I just have to say that it was more than worth EVERY cent I paid for it. With this system I get traffic no matter how lazy I am at promoting my sites. I love it that it doesn't tie me to my computer chair all day because the techniques Kris mentions in his product are some really good ones I've never come across before, like the one that he has on promoting affiliate links. Really interesting stuff. NOT at all new, but there are methods that few people use which Kris emphasizes on and boy do they work. Do not expect anything groundbreaking here, you will only be disappointed. But solid techniques? Hell yes.
pehpot's comment on 1 Million Free Ads ...
Helps Up My Alexa Ranking
I am not selling anything from the sites I have set up lately. So what only matters to me is traffic, and if it isn't too much to ask for, readership. I tried 1 Million Free Ads as a way to up my Alexa rankings, and it certainly helped. Mind you, I didn't get a million hits as advertised, nor did I come close, but it's a pretty good number considering that it is free. The support is pretty quick about answering queries, so there's another plus point. Navigation is pretty easy, as well, another good thing about 1 Million Free Ads. The problem I have with this is that the traffic it provides comes with a high bounce rate, not good and got me thinking about the content of my websites. I'd advise against the free version if you are looking for sales or sign ups, otherwise, this is a decent way to get traffic to your site, if only for the sake of the Alexa ranking. I don't know about the premium service, if it indeed delivers what it promises.
pehpot's comment on Youtube Traffic System ...
Working Great So Far
I'm all for increasing my niche sites' visibility, so I tried Youtube Traffic System as a way to do achieve maximum exposure. I know tons (and I do mean TONS) of people visit Youtube on a daily basis, so I think this is a great place to start more than anywhere else. I'm still fumbling my way over to full SEO understanding, so this system helps in these early days to up my traffic while my SEO skills are not yet up to par with industry standards. I knew how powerful videos are, and I'm speaking from personal experience, but I didn't have an idea that Youtube Traffic System will work as great as it is working for me right now. Not a tremendous amount of traffic, but stable enough to make me happy. I've even converted some of those visitors from Youtube to loyal readers and commentators on my blog. The traffic that I get from the videos I created was enough to make me decide that building niche sites would be one of my main concerns from now on. I've seen the profit that comes from those sites of mine, and I've seen how my older sites have generated more income because of huge traffic, so I think I would be using this system for a long time to sustain and increase traffic to my niche sites.
pehpot's comment on digiXMAS SEO Tools ...
First Article Submitter I Used
I just recently tried digiXMAS SEO Tools after launching several niche sites of my own. I wanted exposure for those new sites, naturally, so I asked around how to do it, and that is when I was referred to using digiXMAS. My sites' visibility shot up and they were indexed faster, which was WAY more than I imagined. I like it that it only takes several minutes to submit using this tool, as I was expecting it to based on the feedback that I have read from various forums. Interface is very user-friendly, and even I who was a first time user, didn't have any problems making it work fast for me. I don't know how this compares to other tools of the same purpose as this is the first one I have tried, but so far, I am loving what it does for me. I am trying the free version now, but I will soon be purchasing the premium version as I am very happy with the results that it has given me and want the full functionality as I know it will greatly help all my sites.
pehpot's comment on Twollow ...
Just OK, Not much of a product to me
When I started with Twitter, I thought I NEEDED to have many followers in order to fully enjoy this social networking experience. So I looked for ways to auto-follow people, since in my mind back then, if I follow them, then they will surely follow me back. This is where Twollow came in for me. I like it that I can choose who to follow based on the keywords of their tweets, so more or less I will be following people who have the same interest as I have. Right? Wrong. What Twollow did for me was follow a bunch of people whose tweets I couldn't care about more often than not. Most of them were just ads (there seems to be a LOT of those in Twitter lately) that littered my time line with garbage. I think that's when I started losing interest in using Twitter. It's a good thing this services has an auto-unfollow feature, the only thing that I am thankful for from Twollow, otherwise I'd still be swamped with tweets I cannot find any use or interest for.
pehpot's comment on Article Rewriter Pro ...
There Are Better Spinners Out There
To say that this is just an average product would be putting it lightly. It DOES rewrite articles, but the quality of articles produced leaves a lot to be desired. Ninety percent of the time, it doesn't make sense, anybody reading it would certainly know that it was a spun article because it stinks of it. The process of rewriting articles is simple enough though, which leads me to believe that this product is made for newbies in article spinning. I also don't like it that they do not cancel your payment if you forgot to cancel your membership. This is always the case with low-quality products, they make sure that if you forget, they get your money. It purports to make your life easier by rewriting articles for you, but the truth is, you will spend way more time editing the low-quality articles that it produces than if you write the articles yourself or if you hired or paid a decent enough writer to do it for you. Sure, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to make this software work, but it also doesn't take much for you (or your readers) to determine that you have better uses for your money than Article Rewriter Pro.
pehpot's comment on HitsBoosterPro ...
Does What It Says It Will Do
I do traffic exchange once in a while if I could fit it in my hectic home schedule. When I do, I use HitsBoosterPro's service. The sites I've joined in this got their fair share of traffic, and since I'm not selling anything on those sites, I'm not at all concerned about conversion to sales. What I am worried about is my bounce rate, which seems to be effected negatively by this service. There were additional readers to my site from HitsBoosterPro, yes, and that's what I really want in the first place, but it's not as much as I like. I love it that it only requires me 6 seconds to view other sites, but lately I've been thinking, if I hit the X button after six seconds on those other sites, what would motivate others to stay on my own sites even after the timer is up? Maybe I just need more interesting content or layout to capture the surfers' attention. But overall, I like HitsBoosterPro as a traffic exchange system.
pehpot's comment on EasyTypingCash ...
Scam With A Capital S
Please do us all a favor and keep your money for something that will actually benefit you and not mislead you in their sales pitch, unlike what EasyTypingCash did to those who purchased the product. I am not proud that I fell for this, but I hope that through my mistake (and the experience of everyone else on this thread) nobody else will be tricked into buying it. First off, it does NOT offer anything unique to the buyer. I did not learn anything new from this program that I did not know about when I was $47 richer. Second, it does NOT deliver what it claims on it's sales page. It does NOT teach you to earn money through data entry, it teaches you to slave for people while not being guaranteed of a pay. That's what irks me most about this. It's not that I didn't earn anything off it. I would've blamed it on myself if this is what it says it is, but it isn't, so listen to me and to all the others here. DO NOT buy this product.
pehpot's comment on Pure Silva Banner Maker ...
One Of The Better Banner Makers Out There
When I didn't know how to operate Gimp, I used Pure Silva Banner Maker. It has the widest range of options I have seen so far and has the best-looking templates, too. Not to mention that it allows me to come up with a great banner under twenty minutes, which saved me a lot of hours in the past trying to figure out how all the controls in Gimp work. I just don't like it that they put a watermark on the end products, which make it obvious that it was made with a free tool. But when you have limited options and technical knowledge about picture editing software, then Pure Silva Banner Maker is a good alternative. I didn't upgrade to the paid version, though, because one, it is much too expensive for my budget and two, I have learned to use Gimp. I had to because I cannot rely on the free version of this product any longer if I am to make a lot of banners in the future.
pehpot's comment on Bloggerwave ...
Still Waiting
Like most of the other reviewers here, I'm still waiting for my first ever assignment from the site. I've been with them for some time and I'm slowly losing hope that I will ever get anything out of this service. I thought it was a good thing that the sign up process was easy to go through, but it turns out (and I know that much now) that you should be worried when sites that act as mediator to publishers and advertisers such as Bloggerwave does not ask for much when you sign up, because the more picky they are, the more likely it is that they have tons of advertisers who pay well and are likewise picky with who they give writing assignments to. I wonder now if the stats on the site regarding highest paid bloggers are true. It seems that nobody is getting anything from them at all. I can't say much of the site layout. It's mediocre and could use some tips from the designer of SocialSpark, which is another pay-to-post service.
pehpot's comment on From Home Data Entry ...
Do NOT Fall For This!
I did, and I've paid the consequences, which is $24.95 to be exact. I'm a stay-at-home mom wanting to become a full-time WAHM, so in the beginning I looked on data entry as a potential source of income. After all, what's so hard about data entry? I know now that it's not the job per se that is hard. It is looking for legit data entry jobs that is a pain in the you-know-what. There aren't any genuine data entry sites who accept users from my part of the world, and if they do, rest assured that they are scam. From Home Data Entry is no exception to the rule. At first I was ecstatic that there was a free trial, so I did them, and they seemed easy enough to do, which was why I took a leap of faith and purchased an assignment package. I have done all the one hundred assignments they gave me and waited for them to give me my earnings. Three months of silence on their end. Am I impatient? I think not. I've done a research on them because I had this nagging feeling that I won't see my earnings, and it turns out the owner is associated with a bunch of other scam sites. Why didn't I do this research BEFORE I paid them is beyond me, and it's a lesson I learned the hard way.
pehpot's comment on Magpie ...
Gave Up On Magpie
I wanted a way to earn on Twitter, even if I am rarely there these days. So I signed up on Magpie under a friend who says she already has some amount on her account. I wasn't expecting BIG earnings, anything is better than nothing for me. First impression about the site is that it looks pretty darn good. The bold colors remind me of a personal blog which I love to visit. I was impressed by how much they said I could earn by using the system. So I set the options and I waited. Two months later, a flat zero on my account. I wondered when (if ever) will I reach their high payout. Another couple of months later, still zilch. The fact that there weren't many ads to work with in the first place made me give up all hopes of ever making money with Magpie. I don't know about people with tons of followers, but I found no luck using their service.
pehpot's comment on LinkBucks ...
Legit, But A Slow Earner
If lots (and I do mean LOTS) of people click on your site links, then you could make small money off LinkBucks. Yes, even with tons of people clicking, it's still a slow earner. But anything is better than nothing these days. I'm still waiting for payout, but I am confident that when that day comes, I will be paid. That's a comforting thought for me, as I cannot say that for some of the newer online earning sidelines I have tried. I have a single referral, who is faring worse than I am, so he's not helping me out much in reaching my first cash out. Support is better than most other sites I am a member of, so that's a plus, too. If it was easier to cash out I'd rate this a B, but since it doesn't seem like I would be seeing payout in the near future, I will give this a C.
pehpot's comment on DIYThemes ...
The Best Among Do-It-Yourself Breeds
My friend who is a web designer has been constantly blabbing about this Thesis theme. I have not heard of it, being on WordPress just recently, so I took no notice until I was actually on said platform. He was totally in love with it, so I asked if I could take a peek. I looked and was in love as well. The interface is easy enough to understand. I would love to have that for starters. And me being a fan of minimalistic, I immediately took the Thesis theme for a favorite. I have made the purchase a week ago, though I have yet to roll out the sites made with DIYTheme's product. However, I can say this right now, for anyone who's ever loved ease and functionality rolled into one, you WILL fall in love with it like I did, and you WILL not regret paying the price point, whichever one you choose.
pehpot's comment on Artisteer ...
The Trial Version Was Pretty Good
Although I was not able to use any of the templates I made with the trial version of Artisteer since the graphics have watermarks splashed all over them, it gave me full access to all of it's other features. My impressions? It is the most powerful theme-making tool there is out there. Anyone who can click their mouse and know the basic parts of a website (yes, you need ONLY to understand the very basic. Think header, footer and sidebar. That easy), will know how to use Artisteer. I timed myself and made a decent-looking template in twenty minutes. How fast is that! The navigation is user-friendly and is arranged in a way that you'll know what to do next once you're finished with such and such part of your theme. Although the results will not leave you doubting that it was made from Artisteer (it will have a certain look about it), that look is not half as bad as some other templates I've found online. This is a great tool for those with tons of mini-sites who wants a unique look for each site he/she owns but cannot afford an expensive web designer to make a theme for each and every one of them just the same. I'd buy it if it was not beyond my price reach at the moment, so while it is, I'll just have to wait, pray for more robust Blogger features on Artisteer and know that one day I WILL be purchasing the full version.
pehpot's comment on Link From Blog ...
Nothing On My End Still
I joined the site after there were several posts in my blog circle about this new Pay-to-Post in town. I, like wahmaholic, was lured to join because of the sign up bonus. First time I went there, I laughed at how silly the grammatical and spelling mistakes are, and in my mind I was already preparing myself for the worst from this site. I wasn't wrong. Several months later, I still haven't gotten a SINGLE opportunity from them. Even if I bid low (which is already ridiculously low considering that the highest writing task I saw was for $3 only), and even if the sites I registered with them are almost on the 100K Alexa mark and has PageRanks. I don't think any advertisers really go to that site, if truth be said. It has been very long and the opportunities are almost the same. The task list is almost never updated, and even if there is also an option for making money by tweeting using my Twitter account, I haven't been approved for any of that either. I know there is nothing wrong with my blogs, they get their fair share of paid reviews from other Pay-to-Posts, and reading through the other comments here who has the same sentiment as I have, confirmed my suspicions.
pehpot's comment on Blogger's Paycheck ...
A Good Investment For Bloggers
Monetizing my blogs is not an easy task, and contrary to what some people believe, it takes a LOT of effort to get to the point where your blog is attractive enough to advertisers and readers alike. Although that is the case, there are resources like John Yeo's Blogger's Paycheck that make this phase relatively easy to go through. I love it that it doesn't promise me to get rich quick with blogging, so I know it is a dependable system. It is a very handy tutorial to have when you're on a craze setting up sites left and right for monetization. The screen shots make it doubly easier to understand, plus the fact that it does not use highly technical words makes this product a real gem. I am pretty confident that in time I will realize what Yeo has envisioned in this resource. I'm not quite there yet, but I'm patient, and I have confidence that Blogger's Paycheck will help me get there.
pehpot's comment on Matt Cutts ...
A Matt Cutts Fan Girl I Am
Having almost ten sites to juggle on an everyday basis for SEO exposed me to Matt Cutts and his blog. He is my SEO god, if truth be said, and I think I have never learned more for free from anyone else than Cutts. And I am enjoying it too. If that sounds too nerdy, then you should try and visit Matt's site for yourself and if you don't get addicted and laugh once in a while (or at the very least chuckle at his humor), then there is something seriously wrong with you. Not only that, he is very attentive to his readers, and even sometimes personally goes to their sites to comment and clarify Google issues that they have. He is clearly passionate about what he does, and that passion is influencing me and a lot of his readers in a good way, helping us understand the complex Google system more. He wants to share to everyone what he knows (and he knows A LOT, trust me), and he is very, very generous for that.
pehpot's comment on Wordpress Goldmine ...
A Goldmine Of Information, For Sure!
I started using WordPress just a couple of weeks ago due to strong urging of friends to try this platform. I know I'm super late in diving into this, so I immediately looked around here for a good product for WordPress. This one got good reviews, so I went ahead and purchased it for myself. After spending some time reading it, I would have to admit that it does have a LOT of valuable information in store for newbies like me. I would have to disagree with some reviewers here who said that it is a tad too expensive for its contents. Certainly, for me, it has been worth every cent I paid for it. What I love about this product is that the creator Mark Thompson is very attentive when I send him an email with several questions of my own. I don't know how he does that, but I bet he makes everyone who purchases his product feel like they are worthy of his valuable time, which makes me even more convinced that this is my $67 worth investing into. Monetizing my sites with WordPress has been easy sailing after this.
pehpot's comment on Free Lunch Room ...
There IS such a thing as Free Lunch
I tried this almost a year ago, when I was but a newbie fumbling her way around the internet marketing world. It's one of the most transparent forums I've had the chance to be a member of, and the sense of community within it is something I find hard to resist. I keep coming back to check out the freebies and the new traders to see if they are worth my time. Free Lunch Room helped me steer clear of questionable traders a lot of times in the past, and that I am deeply thankful for. Although it takes a lot for me to make money, I still like it because I get to learn a lot from the mentors that they partner me with. A word of advice, though. At first you won't be able to make money decent enough to make you want to stick with it, but be patient, and it will be rewarded as you stay longer on the site.
pehpot's comment on Micro Niche Finder ...
I'm Never Going To Have Problems Finding A Profitable Niche Again
This product single handedly solved my big problem of finding a profitable niche to build my sites on. Being a beginner in this field, I didn't know where to start or what to do next. Micro Niche Finder solved it all for me. Aside from having one of the most user friendly interfaces I have encountered, I like it that the features are ALL useful to me, and I never dreamed of using any other product of the same purpose after this. It is always updated, so I know I get the most bang for my buck with this investment than any other I've made since I've started building niche sites. Support has been nothing short of amazing, as their response time is one of the fastest in any product I've bought online. To say that I recommend this would be an understatement. I STRONGLY demand that you buy this product for all the wonder that it will do for your niche building activity!
pehpot's comment on Create Your First Website by 3:45 This Afternoon ...
You Can Never Go Wrong With A Product By Chris Farrell
Before building my new niche sites, I was dependent on my husband for the technical side of site-building, which irks me because if I am to do this for a living, I need to do this myself. I know Chris Farrell's excellent reputation in the internet marketing industry, so when I found out about this product I did not hesitate for even a second. I religiously watched the videos, jotting down notes for reference once in a while, half unsure if I can do it during the start even if the courses looked promising. It wasn't that I am doubting Farrell's product, it was because I was doubting myself. But I learned what I can, and refer back to the courses every so often if I was not sure of what I was doing, and I must tell you, it's a huge sigh of relief when I finished with my first ever website. And as promised, in only a day! Not exactly 3:45, but it was just under twenty four hours, and for me that is amazing. If you like it simple and clear, then this is definitely for you.
pehpot's comment on Easy Video Producer ...
The Free Option Is Great!
I haven't tried the paid option so what I will be reviewing is the free tool. Lately I have been trying videos as a way to promote my niche sites, courtesy of the experience I've had with a friend who uses said medium for site promotion. She saw success in them, and I thought, why shouldn't I as well? So I looked around for a tool to help me make videos, since I have no idea how to make them effective enough to bring visitors to my websites. I found Easy Video Producer and already made five videos with it, all hosted at the site. I'm all for simplicity but sometimes I wish there were more options for the color schemes and the templates to choose from since I am planning to make many more videos through them. I like it that as a lead generator tool, it certainly is working for me. It is incredibly easy to make videos with this one, and for that it is highly recommended for newbies.
pehpot's comment on Traffic Geyser ...
Best Video Submission Automation Service!
I've had the pleasure of using this service as a favor for a friend who is putting up new sites for her health products. At first I was hesitant to do it for him because I honestly have no idea about this area of internet marketing. But she was very persistent, and in the end I had to give in. Which is a good thing, because I've had the chance to experience Traffic Geyser and it is definitely one of the best tools for internet marketing I have seen so far. The thing that I love about this site is that it doesn't scrimp on resources. Some sites I know just take care of the submission side, but Traffic Geyser offers so much more than that. Everything you will ever need for making videos and submitting it to different sites are right there, and most are for free. Plus they also track failed submissions for you to follow-up, which is great because you won't miss to submit to a video site ever again. So you'll not only save precious time because the submission process is semi-automated, you'll also learn about the secrets of video-making as well. Which is what's more important of course. Having a lousy video to submit does you no good. Having a great looking and very interesting video, which Traffic Geyser resources also teaches you how to make, is another story.
pehpot's comment on Text Link Ads ...
I've Gotten Good Results. But It Has Dwindled
I signed up my two sites with PR with them three months back, and there are a couple of links on each of them right now, so I can say that they are good to me. Their site navigation is great, I was able to find my way around and did the requirements easily for me to start accepting text links. I get my monthly pay on time through PayPal, which is great, and although they're not big amounts, every bit helps nowadays. I noticed, however, that there are no offers for my sites lately. I don't know if that's just the general trend or if it's just my sites, so I asked around and found my friends to be in the same situation. Now I guess I just have to be patient in waiting for new text link offers that I can put up in my sidebars, and make do with what I am currently getting from them, and focus on building my PR even higher.
pehpot's comment on Adbrite ...
Adbrite is my new choice
I have been putting off using Adbrite on my sites until a couple of weeks ago, when I decided to come put with several new niche sites for monetization. I asked my friends if I am better off still using AdSense, or should I venture into new territories and try Adbrite. Their answer was unanimous, that I should try Adbrite. So try I did, and I have to tell you I am very pleased with the results I am seeing so far. My income per day with Adbrite is comparatively higher than what I am used to getting with AdSense, and I like their interface better. It's so easy to make new ad zones with just a few clicks, and the instructions are all there in the page for me to read. For that, I may be switching all my current sites from AdSense to Adbrite. I just hope this good earning trend continues for a long time.
pehpot's comment on PollDaddy ...
The real Daddy in Polls
When I first made a fun poll on my site, I had no idea on how to make one. All I did was announce a question and ask every readers to comment on my post. It was not a successful one and I had only two respondents (and both are my friends). I was disappointed with the turn out and decided to look for a poll system. A friend told me about Poll Daddy, but I was lazy checking it out. Then I joined a contest and it involved a poll. I learned that Poll Daddy was being utilized in the contest. I was amazed on how easy it was to use (as a poll respondent). The turn out of the said contest was huge, and I was convinced to try out Poll Daddy.
I use the free version of course, the choices are enough for me and I am not into complicated poll systems yet. I tried it on my site, and the turn out was good compared to my first attempt in polling. Poll Daddy is the site to go for all your polling needs.
pehpot's comment on Ciao ...
Vulnerable to fraud
I discovered Ciao from my first paid to post forum site. Members are raving how easy it is to earn from this site. You just need to write reviews of products and they pay you a dollar each review. Products ranges from TV brands to my favorite movies. There were also products or you can write something about recipes and you will still be paid a dollar for that. Just like here, you can also gain some extras through ratings. Other members will rate your review and you gain cent from each rate.
For a time then, I was really earning some money from the site, then they decrease the rate per review to 50 cents and then decrease again to 25 cents and lastly they no longer pay per review. Week before it finally closes down, you can only earn through ratings but they give a bonus to people who have excellent ratings. I got to experience all those until the time comes when the site finally closes down.
Now I tried joining ciao UK and the rules are the same, you earn through ratings and not for writing. The only difference about the UK ciao and the US ciao is the mode of payment (which I think made a BIG difference). You can only cash out using a bank account in UK. That's a good tactic to me.
Back to Ciao US, I am still hurting whenever I look back at my experience with them. I did not have a bad feeling about the site but to abusive members. I have to admit though that it was their system that lets this people abuse the site. Some reviews I have seen re worthless. Take for example a person reviewing a TV, they would say, "this is a TV, it is 32 inches" and you will see the same phrase int he whole review. It is pure nonsense but then some will rate it as excellent. It was like there is a community of clickers maniac on the site. If you are an honest member and give them a bad rating, they will get back at you. I am saddened by how these people can do such thing just to earn money. A part of me was glad that the site closes down. It was a shame that because of those kind of people, a lot of opportunities are taken to us and because of them a continent is considered as fraud. Sigh.
pehpot's comment on LinkReferral ...
My First Ever Traffic Source
When I started my blogging career, I don't have money to invest on it. I utilize the free use of blogspot and I grab almost every free tool available on the Internet. I joined in free traffic sites like Entrecard and Adgitize. Although I am satisfied with the two, my most favorite traffic site is Link Referral. Joining is free and it only takes some time to gain sure traffic in your site.
It is through a friend blogger that I found out about LR (that's how user calls the site) and I was wondering how she got some people to review her site. In her site, it was displayed what other people thinks of her blog. Almost of them are positive and constructive. She told me, it was through LR. I joined as soon as I can and really enjoyed the site.
It is a traffic site and it is free and as you know if it is free, you need to at least do something to gain it. It is a two way relationship, you visit other people's site and they will visit yours. In every categories there are list and if you are an avid LR like me, most likely than not, your blog is always on the top ten. Some find it hard to figure on how one can land the number one spot. It is very easy, log in, visit sites (30 maximum a day), review sites (5 maximum a day), post on forum and add a blog in your favorite. It will only take an hour or less in a day. The maximum traffic you gain is about 60. It is not much but I can guarantee you that is a of a good quality. The traffic you got from LR really reads your blog, navigates around and have a look and feel of what your blog is all about. Although in the end it is up to you if they would come back on your site.
The reviews I got through LR are constructive. Some just leave comments like nice site, keep up the good work but more than 50% of reviews I got are really good. People commented on how good I write or how neat my site was. Some of them commented on how clutter my site is and so on.
This is my most favorite site because more than traffic, I gain a lot of friends. I got to know people from all over the world. I got to exchange ideas with fellow mommies which are thousand of miles away from me. Link Referral gives us a place to communicate and socialize and in return we also gain quality traffic for our site.
pehpot's comment on Smorty ...
Not Your Ordinary Paid Post Site
Yes, it is not your ordinary paid post site. It is not a scam paid post site. As it is with other sites where approval takes a minute or two, in Smorty it takes a while. Somehow bloggers are assured that the guys behind the site are really reviewing the blogs submitted to them. It was an honor (and I was proud and happy) when finally, after some tries, my blog got approved. They are more strict with their policy about ranks and the age of a blog (should be 90 days) and also with the number of postings. Somehow I felt like I was included in an elite group because of these rule. I was approved and it means my blog is something.
A month later, my disappointment with them starts to build up. There is not one single opportunity available for me! I thought I did something wrong or that my blog did not meet their requirements, but they approved it. Days, weeks, months and now it has been more than a year and still not a single opportunity coming from them. I just logged in yesterday and still no sign of any opportunity. If there is one thing that is good about the site it is that it is easy to navigate and has a eye friendly dashboard.
That makes them extraordinary, a strict policy and yet no opportunities available. It was like a roller coaster ride for the members.
pehpot's comment on Daniel Scocco ...
Blogging guide for novice
It was Daniel Scocco that inspired me to start a technical blog. It was his determination to help people that made him different from any other internet marketer. I came across his blog by chance. I was searching for ways to monetize my blog and was directed to his Daily Blog Tips. I had been blogging for some months then and reading his site made me feel that I still needed to learn a lot.
I dig and read and studied almost every article he wrote. All his tips are practical. It was all easy to understood. His blog is a must read if you are wondering how to start a blog. He gives out advice from blog templates to enhancing traffic.
Although he is a bit boring, the information you can get from him is worth it. Stop by at his site and read for yourself, you'll be glad you did.
pehpot's comment on Buy Hits Cheap ...
When it's cheap, it is cheap!
If it is cheap, expect cheap service too! I signed up on this website in order to buy cheap hits for my new site. They offer 10,000 unique visitors for only $12. I thought it was really cheap. I was thinking I can use the traffic and distribute it for a month long use. I can use 300 or more unique hits a day. I was WRONG! When I signed up and purchased the hits, I couldn't even understood their dashboard. Their FAQ page is nothing but words. It is hard to understand what you have to do to distribute the traffic to your site. I did the best I could do and the traffic that I intended to use for a month was directed to my site in just a few days! I created a ticket asking for their help on what I should do. It was four weeks ago and still there is no answer from them. This is the worst traffic site I have encountered and to think that it was not even free!
I highly recommend that you guys stay away from this site. They do deliver, but they deliver it with a cheap taste!
pehpot's comment on Daegan Smith ...
The blogger marketer
I say he is the blogger marketer because his site is a fun read. In every article he wrote it made a reader feel that he/she is reading an online journal not a lecture about Internet Marketing. Some messages or lessons are well scripted in his article, and yet any reader can see what he is trying to tell. The story he wrote is very inspiring and anybody can relate to it.
I have been reading his articles for a time now and I must say that I am liking him over time. I was glad to find some tips for work at home moms. It was rare to see an Internet marketer giving out tips for work at home moms. All his tips are great and very helpful. All moms out there, take a peek on Daegan Smith.
If only he would drop "you know" in his audio tutorials, all will be great and awesome!
pehpot's comment on Bob Scheinfeld ...
The real SECRET
If you have known or read the book The Secret then I suggest you also read Robert Scheinfeld's The Invisible Path To Success. It provides a better view of the "universe" and explains in detail how it works. It is not simply asking what you want and claiming it and then waiting for it. Bob recognized the need to do something about it.
From my experience reading his book, I can say that Bob really knows what he is taking about. I can sense that the man is really experienced in his field. He knows how to uplift a reader spiritually, and he also knows how to motivate his readers.
I am really glad that I spent a day reading his book. I am now planning on buying more books from him. I highly recommend this because it made my perspective in life better. This is a must read.
pehpot's comment on Bishop Anders ...
Stay Away!
I heard about Bishop Anders and his 26 products offer (including a directory submitter). At first I thought it was a one time payment of $97 but it was actually a monthly subscription fee. There was a trial subscription that is only $37 for ten days. I was really in doubt about this guy since he was "hiding" behind his laptop. So instead, I decided to try first his free offers.
I first tried the 35 page report about social bookmarking for free traffic. I downloaded it and read it. Honestly it was one of the most boring pieces I had ever seen. The content of the report is not new. It talks about social bookmarking. It gives detailed (but boring) history of social bookmarking sites. If you have been blogging for about three months, you already knew all these sites and already mastered on how to submit your links there. Maybe if you are a new blogger this might be helpful.
I also tried the other freebies on his site like the 5 free templates. Although the templates are well done, it does not appeal to my taste. If you really want something out of your time, stay away from this guy, he is not worth it. I am glad I did not subscribe to his products.
pehpot's comment on SwapClix 2.0 ...
One word: CHEAP
I gave it a B rating because it is really cheap. I came across SwapClix 2.0 while searching the net on how I can increase my Adsense earnings. The offer price is very expensive so I had to decline the offer, after declining for the fourth time, the price went down to $9.95. That is really cheap compared to it's original price. I was doubtful and I cannot imagine how the author can slash that much on the product price. Since to me $10 is not much, I gave in and bought the product.
I have been hearing bad reviews about it's older version. Bad customer support is what they are famous for. In my own experience, I can say not. In my first few inquires they have been really kind and answer my queries. They do not answer that quick but they do listen to what I have to say and reply in the most honest way and I can sense that they really took time reading my mails.
As for the product, the first few pages were all about CPA or cost per action. It talks about the history of CPA. The product includes a lot of videos and a promise of having a "money machine". It is like giving you a step by step tutorial on building a site that is optimum for their program. It works as a group of site that are interconnected to each other. Although I get some money from it, I am not up to it. There is so much hype about the product but in reality, it won't make you a millionaire.
All in all, you can purchase the product but make sure you will buy it at only $9.95. It was worth it for that price.
pehpot's comment on Dean Hunt ...
Coolest And Funniest!
A friend told me about Dean Hunt, not because she was interested on Internet Marketing but she found the guy a good read. When she told me Dean Hunt is a good read I never thought that it was an understatement. I head onto his site and almost fell on my chair laughing out loud on his witty remarks.
Dean Hunt is well know for his "buzz" marketing. It is to create a buzz and sell products in a very different approach. I subscribe to his blog knowing I could learn a lot from him. I can sense that behind his funny remarks he really knows the "buzz". He recently shared his 5th deadly business myth and I am almost halfway reading it. I was enjoying it so far. His article about gaining what he call "authority hack" is really an eye opener. He talk about it in a very light way. I will have a copy of that book when it's out.
pehpot's comment on Bill Stoller ...
He is the COOLEST guy in PR!
One of my favorite past time is to indulge myself with Public relations related search. It was not an accident when I bumped into Bill Stoller. A friend knew my fetish about PR and so she gave me the link on Bill Stoller's Free Publicity. I signed up without a doubt. The reputation of Bill speaks for itself. His experiences in Public Relations is better than anyone I have read. The companies he worked for are really huge.
Free Publicity is now like my PR encyclopedia. Everything I knew about Public Relations I got it from there. The monthly update and articles are very helpful. I get to know what is wrong with some of my publicity stunts. I learned techniques that could save me a lot of money.
I give this guy an awesome rating because he knew what he is talking about, he is an expert and most importantly, he is willing to share!
pehpot's comment on Black Belt Recruiting ...
It changed my mom's life
Part of the reason why I take time researching about Internet Marketing is to help my mom in her offline business. I knew that in a way, I can share with her the knowledge that I got from my readings and my research. When I cam across Black Belt Recruiting, I did not think twice and bought it for her. I still have a lot of online earning gigs then.
My mom was very grateful that I bought Black Belt Recruiting for her. It was what she needs for her marketing strategies. She says that I should also give it a try. I did and was really amazed at how helpful the product was. We earned a lot using the tips and techniques in Black Belt Marketing and it was really huge! This is one of the best product when you want to learn teh secret of Network Marketing.
pehpot's comment on Post Launch Profits ...
It was worth my time!
I was really curious on Post Launch Profits since my friend suggested the product to me. I head on to the site and was a bit unsure of the guys. In his site he was really bragging, and it made it harder for me to believe him. Again, the friend who recommended the product convinced me through his bank accounts. So I give it a try, after all, it's FREE!
When I signed up, I was bombarded by so many offers. Although I find it a bit uncomfortable, I knew that that's how Internet Marketing works. I have to pass up for the great opportunities since I am short on cash and just proceeded on the free product.
It was great signing up under Alex. I do learned a lot and his tools (specially the email based) helped boost some sales on my products. I learned a lot of marketing words that is catchy and encourage readers to visit my site. Now I regret that I did not signed up as soon as I can.
pehpot's comment on Magic Article Rewriter ...
It saves a lot of time!
This is one of the best product I had. It was really amazing how I can make articles (and not just two) in a matter of minutes. When I first tried Magic Article Rewriter I was able to spin 4 articles in an hour! Four articles to me would mean a whole on the computer plus a back ache.
Spinning content and coming up with a unique content is my weakness. Magic Article Rewrite is heaven sent for me. In my blog when I need to write three articles about parenting styles, it was really hard coming up with words and meaningful sentences. Now with the use of this great product, I was to able to come up with more than 5 article for a certain topic on my blog! I saved time writing articles and most specially I can relax at some days without worrying about my readers and leaving them empty handed.
I highly recommend Magic Article Rewriter. It is magic!
pehpot's comment on Building On A Budget ...
Great Product For Begginers
Building on a budget is a great product for beginners. It teaches the basics on Internet Marketing but it is not something that would really give a boost on your site. When I read about his book, I already spent some money on Internet Marketing product. It was refreshing to have a copy of this product in a cheaper price.
Since I am quite familiar with Internet marketing, I did actually enjoyed the book. I feel like I knew most of them already. If I had a chance to got a copy of the book beforehand it would have been better. The book discusses a lot on how you can maximize a certain platform to your interest. I have been doing that for a time now and I spend a lot for that.
I recommend this book for beginners most specially. You will save a lot of money if this will be on your to buy list.
pehpot's comment on Michael Wong ...
Scary at first
Michael Wong aka Mike scared me at first. His website is not really neat and has a lot of things going on. When I browsed around his site, I was convinced by his credentials. His experiences in Internet marketing is enough to make me stay longer on his site and look for more products.
The first few products I saw was from one of my favorite Internet Marketer Brad Callen. I thought if he is endorsing/selling a Brad Callen products then he really knew SEO.
Most of the products on his website are not free but there are tools that have been very helpful to me in his site. I have been using his link popularity tool since I chanced upon his site. Lately, I am utilizing his keyword tool. This is a daily update of top 500 keywords. It's even better than Google Hot Trends as it covers more than a dozen of search engine.
I highly recommend Michael Wong and his website. If you have some money, shell out some for his products and endorsements.
pehpot's comment on Blog to Profit ...
Patience is a virtue
It really takes a while before my blog was approved in Blog to Profit. It was not really clear how the site judge a blog. Once I am in, there is no turning back.
The opportunities in Blog to Profit is not that much compared to some of paying post sites. The rate of each review is competitive enough. If it takes a while for them to approve my blog, it also take a while for them to approve my paid post. Patience is what you need when you want to join Blog to Profit.
I have been paid by the site not just once. It was easy to cash out and their help support is very friendly. Inquiries are answered within hours. Aside from that, their dashboard is really friendly. All the necessary buttons you need are displayed and it won't give you a hard time figuring it out.
pehpot's comment on Email Promos Exposed ...
Anything From Michael Rasmussen is good to go!
Michael Rasmussen is one of my favorite Internet Marketers. I believe he I is very generous and I have a high respect for him because of that. It is no wonder that when Email Promos Exposed was released, I just have to get a copy of it, it's free anyway!
So I signed up on the site (they asked for my name and my email address) and was redirected to an offer page. Since I am only interested on the free package, I clicked on continue. To my surprise, I was again redirected to a page with almost the same offers and but at a cheaper price. Honestly, I am almost temped to click on the buy button. So, I got my free Email Promos Exposed copy. I was ecstatic when I first played the video. Michael Rasmussen's voice is very crisp and I can do anything and just listen to the video.
The main focus of the video is how you can create a promo email that does not go to trash. The video has a life of it's own! It's telling me how I can create an email that can lead me to have more readers on my site. I tried it and the result was huge! I got 20 more subscriber on my personal blog after I implemented the ideas behind Email Promos Expose, and that's on day 1 alone!
Check Email Promos Expose out and see for yourself!
pehpot's comment on Maria Andros ...
She is the MAN!
I saw her on Tweeter, and I followed her. I have been following her since, and not just on Tweeter. I have seen almost all of her videos and all of them are eye opening. First of all, although video marketing is making it huge nowadays, I am not a fan of this kind of media. I like reading better because I get easily bored when I watch videos. The first video of Maria Andros I have seen is about the 3Ps of passion, perseverance and patience. Her video was very lively and her opening remarks are very catchy. I ended up watching more and more of her videos because I can sense that she really knew what she is talking about and I am highly entertained by her remarks and first hand experiences.
I am a huge fan of Maria Andros because of the things she shared her viewers. I learned a lot from her is actually an understatement. The first video I have seen became my instant favorite. I understood the reason why I failed most of the time. I incorporated the three P's in all my marketing strategies and there was a huge difference on my performance.
I highly recommend Maria Andros, spare some time and watch all her videos.
pehpot's comment on SocialSpark ...
I love this site but it would be better if they have MORE OPPORTUNITIES
I love SocialSpark for the mere reason that the pay per opportunity is quite high compare to other paid post site I am a member of. The site pays around $10 to $50 for a 250 word article. This is one good site that pays well.
The only problem I can think of right now is the lack of opportunities available to some countries. There a lot of opportunities but most of it are not available or open to my country. It is frustrating too that when there is an available opportunity to me, the slot is already filled.
The best thing I can think of about SocialSpark is it's ability to create spark among it's members. A blogger or a publisher can also have an advertiser account. One can ask other members to blog for them and in return they will blog for them too. It is a good way to build links and traffic.
Social Spark is a very unique website. It is a good earning site and at the same time offers a community for all the members.
pehpot's comment on Blog Advertising Store ...
Blogger are confused
So this is the new name of payingpost now. This is kinda confusing. I know for a fact that this site has been changing lately. First their pay out is $20, then they raised it to $50 and now it is $100.
I have been a member of paying post for almost a year now. When I signed up under them, the first assignment I had was to talk about payingpost. After that assignment I did not received any until a few months ago. I can say that the last two months was pretty OK and I do earn some bucks from them.
The site still owea me some money and they say that they will pay on September 1. Look on the date now and still no payment coming from them. My recommendation for this site is to stay away from them as much as possible.
pehpot's comment on Hits2u ...
A little more explanation please
I joined Hits2u a while back because I just opened my new domain. I am a member then of other traffic sites. Since I have been exposed to a lot of traffic builder sites, I cannot help but compare Hits2u to some of them.
As it is with almost all of my traffic resources, I joined in as a free membership. I am not quite sure until now how this thing works. When I signed up I can't even understood the dashboard and their presentation. I can't find any FAQ or how to page. I am not sure how I can gain traffic from the site. I learned in a few days later that I need to have referrals so that my link or name will be up in their leader board which can mean exposure to my link. I am no good on recruiting other people most specially if I cannot fully explain to them how the system works. Maybe if they will add a little more how to on the site, everything will be smooth.
Comparing it to other traffic sites I am a member of, I can say this one is just OK. I have not received any traffic since I signed up. I can never say that the site is the problem why I did not receive traffic. I know it is me but some of can be attributed to the fact that I don't fully understood the logic behind Hits2u.
pehpot's comment on Instant Banner Creator ...
Bloggers Best Friend
When I started blogging and came across some traffic sites, I was lost. Most of the traffic sites I encountered requires a badge or a banner of my blog. This is difficult for me because I am not familiar with graphics. My knowledge when it comes to digital art is limited to the software paint in Windows. I tried learning new software so I can create my own banner. I was in luck because a friend told me about Instant Banner Creator. It was a love at first sight!
The Instant Banner Creator made it possible for me to create my own banner and even help some friends have their own too. The video tutorials are easy to understood and this software is free! I have nothing against Instant Banner Creator. One of my favorite feature of this software is the ability to upload my image and incorporate it on my banner. Now my blogger friends would always look for me when they need a banner for their contest or for their new blogs.
pehpot's comment on PayU2Blog ...
A wait that is worth it
I had a hard time having my blog approved for this paid to post site. It took a lot of submissions before they finally accepted me. I can say that it was worth the wait. I can only say good things abut the site. First of all is the costumer support. They are one of the best when dealing with inquiries. They reply and fast. You can tell by the way they handle inquiries that they care about their community (bloggers and advertisers).
I love this site for many reasons but of course the most important reason why I gave the site a good rating is how they pay their bloggers. The pay is good compared to other paid to post sites. The best thing about it, each task is different and you are not required to talk about the product. A good link will do. I remember having a post about my boys and I need to make a post for payu2blog. It was very easy, I just inserted the anchor text and it blends well with my post.
The only downside of this site is, they do not answer back if your site is not approved.
pehpot's comment on Adgitize ...
My Traffic Source
I gave this site an Awesome rating because it really is awesome to me. I joined the adgitize before because of the promise of earning some money. I was not that active then and I cannot understand the whole system then. I was only earning 10 cents the most a day. Then a friend told me that I should see adgitize not an earning site but as a site where I can gain traffic. I became an advertiser last month. I created a new site a month ago. The Alexa ranking of that site went from 22M to less than 300k Alexa rank. That huge amount of traffic all comes from adgitize! The cost of advertising I bought is only $14 and I already earned $16 this month. I got traffic and I got some extra money on the side. Isn't that awesome?
Now how the site works? It is very simple. You sign up in adgitize and when your blog is approved, you will have to install some codes for the adgitize ads. A piece of advice, add two ad groups to maximize the ad widget. The site is point system, you get points every time you post new entry for your blog (maximum of one post per day). You get points when you click 100 adgitize ads. You get points when people click your adgitize ads widgets. You can earn as much as 80 cents a day if you are an advertiser.
I highly recommend this site to be your main traffic source.
pehpot's comment on Derek Gehl ...
He shares valuable knowledge
I encountered one article form his site. The article is titled Seven Signs that "Great Opportunity" is a scam. This is one of his best I must say. It involve topics that novice on Internet marketing should know. I really wished I had come across Derek Gehl's Marketing Tips site back then. It can save a lot of our time. Reading his article is like realizing all the mistakes I went through when I was in a hunt for a great opportunity on the Internet. The guy made it simple and straight forward.
Another article that is worth mentioning is his Seven Deadly Mistakes That Can Kill Your Search Rankings. Some of the points mentioned there are great stuffs and really helped me in boosting my site.
Visit Derek Gehl's Marketing Tips website and a lot more than you can think of.
pehpot's comment on Zac Johnson ...
His Site Is Very Clean And Welcoming
When I chanced upon Zac Johnsons's website, I thought it was just a blog with some advertisements on it. His site has a simple lay out and a very welcoming feel on it. The site also radiates some confidence and gives an encouraging feeling that you can trust Zac Johnson. I had no doubt when I signed up and subscribe to his site.
I have been getting a lot of useful articles from him. I know that he is in affiliate marketing and will try to sell products in his articles. It was not a problem to me since I have a high respect for him. I knew that whatever product he endorse really works. My recent purchase from his article is the book on how you can maximize tweeter and earn from it. Another reason why I am glad I found his site is his constant sharing of free Internet marketing materials.
pehpot's comment on Michael Rasmussen ...
He is generous!
I subscribed to his site and was overwhelmed by the amount of information I got from it. It was really nice of him to help other make it big on the Internet marketing game. I cannot believe that the tips I got from him are all free. Some of the tips I read, I already knew because I paid for it. All his information are very relevant and is worth a read.
His philosophy in life is very clear. He wants people to enjoy the same financial freedom he is experiencing from his Internet marketing strategy. I have high respect for Michael Rasmussen because of this.
I do recommend that you stop by at his site and subscribe on it.
pehpot's comment on Robert Plank ...
A programmer and an IM!?!
I was amused when I first heard about Robert Plank. He is a programmer and at the same time he is an Internet Marketer. I was told that programmers are not good when it comes to selling. It was such an achievement that he can sell and do programming. I am married to a programmer so I know how hard it can be at times.
What I like about this guy is he still finds time to write and share some stuff to his readers. I had his article about responding to 100 emails in less than 20 minutes. I gave my husband a copy of that and he says it was really helpful.
Knowing a guy like Robert Plank gave me more ideas about programmers and their job. It also gives me a lot of information about PHP and the likes. His website is a must stop if you are interested on programming.
pehpot's comment on Garry Conn ...
Just Another Affiliate Marketing Guy
I am not saying he is lame but he is just another guy who is making it good on Internet Marketing. His articles are very basic. I did not learn anything new from it. Most of his topics are already covered by greater and more influential Internet marketer.
He uses every technique there is about SEO keywords and other tools so that his page would land on top searches. From what I have seen on his site, he is more on AdSense and how to increase earnings from it.
What I do not like about this guy is the fact that he is almost begging his readers to give him a tip.
pehpot's comment on Frank Sousa ...
He is the man in the red shirt
I used that title because that's how I see him. The man in the red shirt, he is that catchy. The first few lines on his site is enough to make me stop whatever I am doing and sign up for his free ebook.
He never mentioned anything about his ebook on his page. He just tells stories about how good it is to be working at your own phase. His words are very enticing.
When I started reading the ebook, I realized it talks about affiliate marketing. This is not my forte and as much as possible I stay away from this kind of talks. It was a good thing that he talks about affiliate marketing in a not so boring way and with full of promises.
If you have the time to indulge in reading affiliate marketing articles, I suggest you head on to his site and claim your free ebook.
pehpot's comment on Ellen Cagnassola ...
A very inspiring story
Ellen Cagnassola is one of the people that I look up to in terms of sales and Internet marketing. Her successful story and her soaps are hard to miss. She has gone through a lot and she shares her experiences to us all. It is very inspiring and makes me want to work hard.
I have been using her six ways on how she made it big on her career. One of my favorite is the number one on her list, that is to have a positive attitude.
Lastly, all her soap products a must try. They provides great packaging and they are easy to deal with. I have been planning to have a box of soap for my baby's christening and I will be ordering on her site!
pehpot's comment on Cyber Link Pro ...
It's not just about the links
First of all the site is very surprising. If you are on a quiet place and you open their site, you will be greeted by a video that plays automatically. It was shocking but the video introduction is very comprehensive.
They offer backlinks of different types and to me they are priced ridiculously. From my extensive research on Internet Marketing and SEO, I have learned that it was not all about the back links. That lesson did not came to me very easy. Yes, I purchased 1000 links for $19.95 for a month. It was a foolish move on my part but I was desperate then to have more backlinks. In a way, it helped me a bit but since money is not easy, I did buy more links for another month. After that, the realization knocked me down. I spent a lot for nothing.
If you really think that it is about links and back links, then this site is for you. You have to take note that you should not stop buying links from them in order for your site to be on top always. Now isn't that a waste of money?
pehpot's comment on Free Traffic System ...
Articles that keep me going
I landed on Free Traffic System when I searched for SEO friendly keywords to use on my parental blog. I was taken a back to know that I have to pay them $25 to investigate my site and look for the right keywords I can use. I already spend some amount on traffic building and other strategies. Maybe two to three months from now I might pay them.
I just focused on the articles written on the website. All of the articles have videos embedded on it. It makes reading a lot more faster and it really gives a lot of information. My favorite topic that he covered was an article about why my Google ranks is up and down. It gives an emphasis on what I am doing wrong and gives me an idea on how I can fix. Judging from their articles, I think I will really purchase on of the products when I have the money to do so.
pehpot's comment on Sponsored Tweets ...
Waiting for it to happen
I am a member of Payperpost and Socialsparks, both an IZEA product. I love those two site so far it is one of my highest paid to post site. The possibility of Sponsored Tweets making it work like that of PPP and SS are promising. IZEA is a know company and handles it's clients and publishers very well.
I joined the program as soon as IZEA launched it. I love their dashboard because it is easy to navigate. The color of the site is very remarkable and memorable. The site per se is making an impact to it's visitors.
The site give it's user total control on who they want to tweet. It also provides a dashboard where in you can set an amount on your tweet. This is a good site that promises a lot, let's wait and see how far it will go.
pehpot's comment on BuyBlogReviews ...
Not much paid post
This is one of the first few sites that I joined in. Their dashboard is one of the cleanest I have seen. It is very easy to navigate around the site and that is a major advantage specially to advertisers.
I only had one paid post from them. From the time I had the post until now, I had not received any job orders from the site. All I can say about the site is they approve easily and that really do give specifications on the job they want. They are very keen on the post and really take time reviewing what I wrote. It was my very first paid post entry and they were really considerate.
The best part of the site is that you can bid on projects. It is both beneficial to bloggers and to advertisers. They can chose what they want to write and the advertisers have the chance to chose who they want to write for them.
pehpot's comment on David Garfinkel ...
Laugh it off!
This man is a serious Internet marketer but he really is funny. Look at his site and see for yourself. His profile image on his website is very welcoming and he is smiling from ear to ear. Unlike other marketers who are either aggressive or boring when presenting, this guy is very lively.
His words and his presentation are funny and very alive. The contents of his articles are mostly basic knowledge but it was presented in a very entertaining way. I enjoyed reading his articles over and over again. One of my favorite topic covered is how you can make a good headline. It is basic that a headline is very important in your articles. He presented the headline article in more details and even give examples. His examples are easy to grasp and gave me an idea on what kind of title I will use on my articles. From the time I applied it, I noticed that my visitors now reads my article. It was really effective and I owe it to David Garfinkel!
pehpot's comment on Alvin Huang ...
Alvin Huang is the authority
Authority Blueprint X is a well written report that is very easy to understand. For a starter, the report is a must. The authors of the report really knows the subject they are talking about and gives you enough confidence to trust them.
The report, Authority Blueprint X, gives a detailed explanation on how one can build an authority site. They give examples on how it is done. The steps are all easy to follow.
The price of the product is not bad considering they have a 60 day money back guarantee. It only means that they really know what they are selling and willing to give back your money in case you are not satisfied.
pehpot's comment on Blogsvertise ...
Not Much Paid Post
I have been a member of this site for a long time now. They give higher amounts when they asked you to write a post about a certain advertiser. They usual rate is $9 to $10 for a 250 word article. From my experiences on paid posting, it is quite high.
I had my first assignment 6 months ago. I was rejected by the advertiser because of some typographical errors. After that, I had not received any from them. I contacted their support group and asked why they had not assigned an assignment to me. They are quick on responding to my inquiries and after a week, I received my second assignment. From then I received one or two assignments every month. The pay is good but the site would be awesome if there is more assignments and paid post for bloggers.
pehpot's comment on RevTwt ...
More Tweets And More Followers
I was amazed on the how they conceptualize this kind of advertisement. For a time, I was really into tweeting. I would spend a day tweeting and so when I heard about RevTwt, I signed up immediately. One of the first few things I encountered is my lack of enough followers to have more ads. I only have less than 1,000 followers so I am limited to showing an ad a day. I was not earning much, but I am earning. I plan to have more followers so I can show more ads. I have my ads on auto post mode. At first I though it would be good to have it on manual mode but it was a bit tiring for me. If some ads are not appealing to some, I am hoping that someone may show a slight interest on it.
If you have a lot of followers and are very active on tweeting, I highly recommend this to you.
pehpot's comment on Andrew Cavanagh ...
Cheap and affordable
I bought this product not because I was interested on making money out of it. My only concern is to make my mother's business hit it on the Internet. My mom is selling some health products and I wanted to put up a site for her. Accidentally I landed on Andrew Cavanagh's web site and his product Offline Gold caught my eye. I was really thankful that the product is very affordable. The promise of helping business owners make more money from what I have learned from the product is what made me buy Offline Gold.
My mother was really amazed on how I made a fortune out of her site. The orders on her products sky rocketed. I was really glad that I bought Offline Gold. The money I spend for it is worth it.
pehpot's comment on Neobux ...
Slow and stable PTC
This is one of the first few PTC sites that I tried when I was just starting my luck on money making on the Internet. At first I was hesitant because the numbers of advertisements you can click in a day is very limited. The most number of advertisements I had was 6. They pay 0.01 for every ad I clicked and viewed. I was a free member of the site until now.
I am not earning that much from this site but this is my favorite PTC site. As a matter of fact, this is the only PTC site that I visit everyday. For one, I do love their site and it's layout. I love the color combination of the site and the simplicity it presents. The site's appearance gives you a feeling that the site can be trusted. Most of all, the site really pays. I already got some payments form them and though it's not that big, it adds up overtime.
pehpot's comment on Michael Gray ...
He fixed my blog
I cannot afford his rate so I headed on to his site and read and read. I spend at least an hour a day reading what he has to say. One of my favorite topics is how to fix your blog. It has a detailed explanation on what are the basis of a successful blog. He discussed on how you can increase your readers if it is one of your success meters. He also gives explanation on rss feed works.
I have been blogging for some time now and I can say I owe it most to him. His topics are fun to read and easy to comprehend. He never runs out of topics to write about blogging. One of the reason why my mommy blog is named as such is also because of this guy.
Lastly, he is not your typical sugar coated author. He provides topics that most of us would not want to talk about. His article on how to shut down your blog is a must read. It tackles some considerations when you are shutting your blog down. It also talks about how to monetize your blog even if you are planning to slow down on blogging.
For a novice on blogging, I highly recommend this site. It is a must read.
pehpot's comment on Membership Tactics ...
Cheap and educational
I bought this product just to entertain myself with membership building tactics. I was member then of a paid to post forum site. I am quite interested on how one can create a huge site with a lot of participants and without spending much. The answer lies in the four videos Jason Fladlien presented. The great thing about the product is there is a PDF guide included. When I lack the patience to watch the videos, I just read the files. The presentation of the file is as clear as the presentation of the video.
The product also offers money back guarantee if in 60 days you are not satisfied with it. The product also gives 3 bonuses, m4v videos and more tactics form Jason.
I more than satisfied on the information I received form this product. I had learned a lot from setting up my own membership based site to making it profitable. My favorite video is video no 2. This is the part where Jason creates a membership site in less than 6 minutes. He used tools that are readily available on the Internet and all are free. I had fun making my own membership site and tweaking it is very easy.
No I did not make money out of it. As I have said earlier, I bought the product because I just want to learn,
pehpot's comment on TopSurfer ...
Playing or Reading?
I joined this site because it offers free membership. I already joined a lot of traffic site but this one is more interesting because I can play two of my favorite game, solitaire and bingo. I had fun surfing because in reality I was actually playing the games. In my case, I really don't mind if people visiting my site is playing or really looking at my website. I am looking for traffic and not readership.
I give the site a just OK marks because of the difference of a free membership and a paid membership. For one, there is a huge difference on the sign up bonus. Another thing is, the play option is not a good thing for those looking for readers. So if you are looking for a site that will give you sign ups for your product, this is not your site.
Lastly, they offer a lot of promos and most of it are priced just right.
pehpot's comment on GOT Safelist ...
Be safe and earn
I signed up as a FREE member on this site and so far I am receiving a good traffic from them. The site allows me to advertise my blog through emails. I like this for a fact that members receiving emails should be responsive or else they would not gain some credits.
When I signed up I instantly receive 10,000 credits. I referred some friend and from each I got 2,500 credits. I think for now I will remain as a free member. I am quite happy with what I receive and what I earn as free member of the site.
Just a reminder, though, if you are planning to join the site, they do not accept Yahoo mail. According to the site, Yahoo mail does not receive emails from them. If you are planning to join them, make sure you will not use your Yahoo mail account.
pehpot's comment on Project Wonderful ...
An advertisers site
I am both an advertiser and a publisher of Project Wonderful. Honestly, I like the site more because of it's cheap advertising cost. You can say that I am more on the advertising side than on the publisher side. I do earn some cents being a publisher. What I earn as an advertiser is greater than the amount I earned as a publisher. I am not speaking about the money but the things I earned like traffic and boost in Alexa ranking.
I highly recommend this site for advertisers who wants a boost on their traffic but with a limited budget. The name Project Wonderful is very apt on the service the site provides. And true to it's word, Project Wonderful is a win-win situation.
pehpot's comment on Entrecard ...
Good traffic builder
I am an EC user for almost a year now. When I started my blog and people are talking about card dropping and EC widget, I got curious and signed up at the site. I had a hard time figuring out the dashboard but after a while of familiarizing myself, I am OK with it.
The dropping of card is how the system gives traffic to a site. The first few dropping stints I had, it was not really helping my site. Then I came across a system that makes easier dropping. The site owner gathers 300 users of the site and group it into 10. A little box represents each group. All you need to do is to click a box and 10 tabs will appear. Each site on the box has a widget and all you need to do is click on it. I asked the owner to include me on the list and from then on I got a lot of traffic coming from droppers.
The site is a good traffic builder but there is a catch. You will gain traffic but there is no assurance that you will gain readers too. A lot of users just want to drop and then run, and they won't even notice your articles.
So if you are more concerned on readership, this one is not for you. If you want traffic then I suggest you start dropping now.
pehpot's comment on Darren Rowse ...
He is the man!
Darren Rowse? I thought this man is about photography! I never knew he was into Internet Marketing too. My own experience with this man is about photography. When I had my first digital single lens reflex camera, I came upon his site, Digital Photography School. I sign up for the site and receives a lot of great tips and techniques when it comes to photography. His site is my daily does of photographic techniques. Every time I need an advice with regards to photography, I stop by at his site and spend half a day reading all his useful techniques.
Darren Rowse photography site is also my source of information when it comes the latest gadget for my camera. It really gives detailed explanations on why you need a certain accessory for your camera.
I believe Darren Rowse is a gift to photographers like me. I gave him an awesome rating fro all the tips and techniques I learned from him.
pehpot's comment on Quick Article Pro ...
It was not worth it.
Since I started blogging, I experienced a lot of what they call writer's block. I would stare down my keyboard and nothing happens. I tried so hard to remember the things that I want and needed to write. When I started out a niche blog that talks about movies, I decided to give Quick Article Pro a try. Honestly, I have to pull all my resources to buy this one. It was a bit expensive but the promise of a better article is very enticing.
Let's talk about he good side first. The software is easy to install. A click from this and that and you are ready to go. Now the dashboard or the working area is very neat. It does not take any technical talent to comprehend it.
And now comes the lame part. When you want to write an article, let's say about a certain movies, you have to key in the keywords of that movie. You will be given ideas on what you can write about it. You will be given sentences that you can just drag on your work area. That's the lamest of them all. If you are a thinker like me and still concerned with your article having a good comprehensive content, this is not for you. You still have to think if the sentences you will use will have a meaning to the previous one you already used.
Now, Article Pro is very good when it comes to SEO. As it is, you use the sentences that has been SEO friendly for a certain keyword. If you are only concern about being on top of every search, I suggest you invest on this one.
pehpot's comment on Clix N Cash ...
Slow Earnings But Stable
I joined Clix n Cash about 6 months ago. I signed up for a free membership. As I have said, it will take time before you can earn big on this program but it is OK since the site is very stable and it really pays. The good thing about this site is their minimum pay out specially for paypal users. I have not cash out my earnings yet. I want it to accumulate to a bigger amount before I would cash out it.
What I like most about this site is the fact that I can go on with my everyday blogging activities and from time to time and jump in and out of the site. It requires you to wait for 5 or 10 seconds to click on an ad. I would usually check my site, read the ad, check my site again and click on the ad.
I am still contemplating in promoting this site to my friends. The fact that it would take time to get enough money is not a good thing. People need cash right on. Although it is an advantage that they pay but it is small and what can you buy for 50 cents?
pehpot's comment on Survey Monkey ...
It was fun using Survey Monkey
I have to give it to the one who named it, the survey monkey name is very apt for the software. It was easy to use. I signed up for a free account just so I can use it on my little surveys on my blog. In the free account I avail, I can only ask ten questions and only 100 respondents can answer. It was never a problem with since my surveys are for fun only. I usually ask around 3 to 5 questions. What I love more about survey monkey is the easiness of setting up. I don't have to stress myself on lay out because there are free (50) templates available. I can also change the way my surveys look.
If you have any plans on using Survey Monkey I suggest you avail first the free account and familiarize yourself. Maximize the service they offer as free member and if you think it is not enough, then it's time to move on to a paid account.
pehpot's comment on Allan Gardyne ...
Unconventional And It Works!
Allan is a very interesting Internet marketer. Aside from his not so young look, he is not selling a product of his own. He focused a lot on affiliate marketing. At first I have doubts on this guy. I thought, if he is that good on internet marketing, why don't he put up his own product and start selling it. His Alexa Ranking is quite high too (20,000 below). With this kind of traffic I am pretty sure he can do good if he would sell his own. Then I subscribe to his website and was really amazed in the articles I received. I can say that his ways of internet marketing is very unconventional and yet he earns a lot from it. He made use of his talent through affiliate marketing. One of my favorite article from this guy is "How to boost your AdSense revenue". It was every helpful especially during the times when I am still new on the AdSense world. He really knows how it works. I actually understood what CTR (click through rate) is all about. He clearly explains and even gives out a scheme so one can earn $100,000 a year from AdSense.
I like this guy and the fact that all his articles are free and I hope he would never have to sell a product of his own.
pehpot's comment on ReviewMe ...
Not My Cup Of Tea
I have been with Review Me for a time now and I had not received any offers yet. A friend of mine has been telling me that they rely mostly on Page Rank. My site has a Page Rank of 3 and yet I had not received any offers from them. Another friend of mine says that your site should have it's own domain and not a subdomain (like yourblog. blogspot.com). Another reason she says why I had not received any opportunity is because the category I am in. She told me that popular categories like Entertainment, fashion and technology gets more offer than my category which is family and home.
So I guess, if you really want to earn form review Me, you should take into consideration the following: your page rank, your blog's url (own domain) and the category you are writing for.
pehpot's comment on Camera Dollars ...
Waste of time and money
My husband brought a DSLR for me. I am not a professional photographer so I spend a lot of time researching on photography products that work. I downloaded some ebooks about tips and techniques on photography. When I came across Camera Dollars, I became interested and asked my husband to buy the ebook for me. It turns out that I just wasted his money and wasted my time reading the ebook.
The book's promise of earning $250 a day is not realistic. The only thing that is helpful about the book is the listings of some sites where you can submit your photos and earn from it through sale commissions.

I am using a free version of his article submitter and I am very satisfied with it. I can say that this man really knows internet marketing. I am now saving up to buy an upgraded version of the directory submitter. I also interested on buying another great software from this guy.

Great Help For New Site Owners
I downloaded the free version of this software. It provides 300 plus directories. I experienced submitting my site manually on site directories so I can say this software is heaven sent to me. The steps are easy; you just have to start a project, fill up the necessary information and browse the list of directories. I like the fact that you can sort out the category list by their Page Rank and if it is free or not. Although there are some directories on the list that are not active anymore, I have nothing bad to say about the software. I got it for free, why do I have to complain. Now I am saving up to buy the upgraded version.

Great Site For Blogs With Ranks
I have been a member of Sponsored Reviews for about six months now. I like the concept of the site where in you have to bid for a certain opportunity. I used to bid the same amount as what the advertiser is willing to pay. I did not win any bid suing this tactic. I tried bidding as low as the minimum bid which is $5 and I won some.
I give the site an Awesome rate due tot he fact that the requirements for a certain opportunity is clearly stated. They also give enough time for bloggers to write the review. The site is very clean and one of the easiest and fastest site to navigate.

No Available Opportunities
I have been writing for the older version of Pay per post. If I have to compare the two, the newer version has a very nice lay out and an eye catching template. I like the shade of the green used in the version 4. What I don't like about this version is the lack of opportunities. It is very different from the older version wherein opportunities that you are qualified to take are displayed and you can just chose which one to take. In this newer version of Pay per post, the advertisers have a greater control over the users that can write about them. Just recently I got an email saying my blog is qualified for a paid post. I need to say if I am interested or not. Of course I checked the box that says I am interested. I learned that when you are qualified to take an opportunity, the system will email you, if you are interested, they will enlist you for further review. Being qualified to take an opportunity is a long process.

Like This Product
I recently purchased this product. At first I was at lost, which is mainly my fault. I had a hard time understanding the concept behind. When I focused on it and really try to understand it, it did good on my site. My site improved a lot. I never though that the price I paid is worth it. I highly recommend this to everyone.
