Bang the links and Traffic

Posted by Holly On February - 29 - 2008

I have been using Bang the links to help get some new visitors to my site for about a month now. It has been really successful and I have gotten around 500 extra visits per site and I still have more to go. The best part is most of them have stayed on the site longer then required for them to get their credit, so I think that this form of advertising is a great success.

I recommend this site because I know the owner very well and I know she is a trustworthy person. So if you are looking for a cheep way to get some traffic check out Bang the Links. I’ve spent around $10 for my traffic so far, thats over 2000 visits for just $10 not bad I think.

Don’t you hate surfing though sites that have nothing to do with your own site? Do you hate having to click back and forth to drop cards on the people who dropped theirs at your site. Well now there is a great way to do that and more.

It’s a script designed by OBlife.com that will let you manual surf your entrecard droppers and you can also surf by category. All you need is your member number and your dropper RSS feed.

I love project wonderful

Posted by Holly On February - 25 - 2008

I love using it, it’s very easy and I have had a ton of advertisers. The only problem I have right now is that I haven’t had time to do any advertising myself. I still have made a decent amount with them and I added them to another blog, bringing the total to 3 blogs. My design blog is not doing so well so if your looking for some cheep advertising head over there. Right now I believe it’s free!

I like how you can give away a spot if there is one. I would rather have the ads full and not make much then have them sitting there looking weird. Of course I know I could put my own ads in and I might if there still is not an interest in the one blog.

How has your experience been with project wonderful?

Something new

Posted by Holly On February - 24 - 2008

I am trying something new. I have started a shopping site for shopping codes, it’s still a work in progress so I won’t be linking to it just yet, but I’m wondering if anyone has done this type of thing. I’m just trying to see if it actually works for my affiliate programs or if it’s just another dead end.

I’m excited about it though. I’m hoping to have some good results even if it’s just a bunch of visitors. I am going to leave it up for about 6 months and I’ll keep you updated as to how I do.

A Smorty warning

Posted by Holly On February - 19 - 2008

I found this post written on Cool Adzine interesting. It is about the PTB program Smorty. I am not using them anymore for reasons other than what is stated in the article but I do want people to know that when your start doing anything online for money you need to read the TOS and check it every few months.

Now I don’t agree with the TOS on there and when I did read it I was not happy, but I had intended to keep my blogs where they were. I have since stopped using them and moved my blogs. I still don’t have anything stating I owe them anything, oh well I don’t care. I didn’t make much with them anyway. Just a warning to anyone looking at them. Read the TOS.

Paid posting on Makin the Money

Posted by Holly On February - 19 - 2008

Pay per post has changed there TOS so that blogs that are 30 days old and have at least 10 post in those 30 days can join. I have been thinking about this, and originally I did not want to do paid posting on this blog. I’ve been thinking more and more about it and this may be a good thing. The only type of paid posting I would do would be money making ideas or business related things. Like website help or things that could help with a home based business.

I am wondering though if any of you would read these post knowing they are paid. I would not take anything weird that doesn’t live up to my standards and my reviews will be honest reviews. Let me know what you think in a comment.

A bad week

Posted by Holly On February - 15 - 2008

Making money online is not easy. Because of family issues this week I have made a whole $30 doing paid posting. My biggest money maker. I think this is the bad part about making money online. It takes time and most of that time is spent searching for the opportunities to write.

I love what I’m doing, but I also know that right now is a good time to start looking for a real world job. So just encase your wondering eventually why I’m not posting much. It could be that after 2 years of looking I have actually found work. I’m not counting on it, but it doesn’t hurt to try.

I am still going to be making money online, I have 40,000 in student loans to pay. So this will still be important. I do have good news my advertising is working well and is starting to pick up. As is my traffic. So with a little hard work it can be done.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask me. If your interested in blogging for money, check out and join my forum Blogger Love where you can get tons of information on paid blogging and have all of your questions about it answered.

Using pay to read services

Posted by Holly On February - 13 - 2008

A few weeks ago I decided to use a pay to read email service called Bang the links. I am very happy with the results of my efforts as my traffic has gone up and I have a lot of readers coming back to read more. I will probably do some more advertising with this site. I know the owner from a forum I’m on so I trust the site.

This is a great way for a new blog or website to get out there and get noticed. Try it on your site and see what it can do for you.
