Here’s a followup post about making money from the Internet. This time around, let me introduce you to the power of your blogs. As you are aware, there are literally millions upon millions of personal as well as niche blogs on the Internet. Popular blogs have loyal readers visiting and a good position in the blogosphere. If you own such a blog, you are well positioned to monetize your blog.

First and foremost, have a look at this web site; BlogProductPlacement. It is a simple designed website but it is very powerful in drawing advertisers and bloggers together - sort of a blogging marketplace. Essentially, you will be expected to blog about advertisers’ products with your own opinions much like an advertisment (product placement). Bloggers who intends to blog for a little side money would be required to fill in an application form to begin. BlogProductPlacement are most likely to test you on your blogging skills for acceptance. Therefore, pay close attention to your grammar and spellings.

As for payments, you will require to have either paypal or epassporte to receive funds from advertisers. Expect offers between US$5 to US$20 per blog post.

March of this year, I got myself a Samsung X200 mobile phone. I liked the phone for its simplicity and design aesthetics. However, there are 2 shortcomings that I observed.

Firstly, this nifty little mobile does not word wrap when composing or receiving SMS. That makes reading SMS difficult and troublesome. It is really a hassle to read SMSe if you are behind the wheel.

The second shortcoming is that of their preloaded ringtones. There are only limited selections of polyphonic tones available and mostly suited for the much younger generation’s taste. I hear that T-mobile ringtones which is available in the United States are awesome and there is a large collection of tones for download. I’ve not checked it out but I sure will immediately after this post. For me personally, I prefer those monotones that goes ring-ring…. ring-ring; a simple tone to tell me that there is an incoming call.

If you own the same mobile as mine, do yourself a favour and download free ringtones for your own mobile.

I have received a number of emails and calls from my friends, all asking me questions about making money over the Internet. Most of them have the idea that there is a pot of gold sitting somewhere in cyberspace and all they had to do is stretch out their hands and grab it. How wrong and ignorant they are (my apologies for being blunt).

If you noticed, I have included an additional subcategory called “Making Money”. Here, in this topic, I will reveal ways for you to monetize money from the Internet and directly into your Paypal or GBuy account. But remember, you’ve got to work hard in order to maintain a sustainable income.

And for the maiden method to make money from the Internet, allow me to include sites such as Project4Hire. If you are a developer and have time to be a freelance programmer, you can go over to the website and look for web programming jobs. Or you have the capabilities in web development, you can search for custom web design jobs. Project4Hire is not only about technical freelance jobs. They do have a number of non-technical jobs suitable for freelance writers, translators or photographers. With a large category of jobs available on Project4Hire, I am quite sure that you will be able to find some jobs in that website that corresponds to your skills and abilities.

Stay tuned for more ways to make money online; the legitimate way.
