No I’m not talking about writing an E-book. I’m talking about publishing an actual book that will be sold in an actual store. You will need a good amount of cash for this one, somewhere between $500 and $2000 to do this.
Many of us that blog have the ability to write our own stories, we do it every day. We work hard on each and every one of our post and hope that someone will read them. Some of us hope to make money doing this while others do it just for fun. I personally have 2 books I have been working on. One I started in high school and lost when our computer crashed. I still know what I wanted to do with it and did start once to rewrite it. The other is one that I got from a strange dream I had. I think it would make a better movie, but I’m not good at writing those types of things.
Remember everyone has a story to tell. If you can come up with the money to get it published isn’t it worth it? If you can’t you can always try to push it to a publisher. Me I’m thinking of getting one of my stories published and then selling it myself online. Yes I’ll have to deal with shipping, but thats not a big deal.

I’m trying out a new program called Linkbucks. I just signed up today so we will see how it works, for now I have only changed one link. I’ll be working on more soon. I’m sure you wondering what I am talking about so here is how the program works.
You sign up and find links to other websites that you already have on your blog or website. You can also link to your own site. The link itself doesn’t really matter. You take that URL and you put it into their system. They then give you a new link that will either take you to a landing page where an add is displayed for a few seconds or you can choose to have a banner at the top of the page the person is going to. I thought my blog Savey Spender would be a good one to try the banner out on.
You get paid so much for so many clicks. Really I think it could be a great program as there are many links I know people click on that I don’t get paid anything for but wish I could. The thing you have to remember is that this is only for non-paid links. Not for links you are being paid for.
Check it out yourself and see if you like it.

In my quest to make money I opened a blog, Savey Spender, to do product reviews and post coupon codes for people to use. I didn’t think it would do that well and I don’t post to it often. The traffic on it is low so I figure no one reads it. Wow I was wrong. This new blog has 10 RSS subscribers already, for me that is huge as this blog has one or two I think, and my design blog that has been up for just under a year has between 20 and 30.
This is amazing to me as I have tried doing contest to get my RSS readers up, but nothing has ever worked. I leave this blog alone and I get 10. It’s just very strange, but it has made me try to post more on that blog. I’m hoping the trend continues.

As many of you who read this blog know. I have been a member of swat cash for over a year I have made over $1000 with them most of it from referrals I have gotten because the site gave them to me though there order system.
Now they have made me very happy. I have won $25 in a contest from last month. All I had to do was participate and do things I would normaly do. How is that for cool. So anyway they do contest all of the time, my next win I hope will be the $1000 weekly forum giveaway. I’ll keep my fingers crossed until then though.
