Enjoy Freebies and Prizes on These Sites

Though I consider myself a technophobic, I can’t deny the fact that modern advancements opened doors of opportunities for me.  For one, I get to receive a decent paycheck by doing stuff for online marketing.  I believe that people who spend so many hours in front of the computer should realize that the World Wide Web and social media are gold mines. With the right knowledge and skills, one can earn money through it and gets freebies and prizes too.

I would like to share that I received freebies from these sites:

EverydayMe This site gives out samples of Procter and Gamble products such as Olay, Safeguard, Ariel, Downy, and many others. One needs to be vigilant though because the samples run out pretty fast.

Nestle Club I simply signed up to this and aside from the cooking recipes and home organizing tips on the site, I have received cool samples and freebies here. I am usually informed of the promos I can avail through the super cool e-newsletters they send.

A1 Online Surveys  For those with extra time and don’t mind answering surveys, this site is for you. Not everyone is eligible to answer a survey and points will not go up overnight so patience is a virtue. I have received a couple of Sodexo GC’s from doing this.

Top Ways to Make Money Online

I have not earned much online so I am really no expert, but I can say that I have earned quite a decent amount with my online pursuits. By decent, I mean it is equivalent to an amount that I would usually earn for a part time work. The only difference is that my online activities are much easier to do and doesn’t require much time. Right now, my online earnings can’t rival my income from my full time job but my earnings help me save some money and make it somewhat easier for me to pay some bills. For others who also want to make money online, here are some of the online activities that will make you earn money, based from my own experience:

Start a Blog: A quality blog can really earn some bucks thru Adsense and other advertisers but it is not so easy. Blogging requires time, effort and passion so it is not recommended to start a blog just for the goal of making money. The best way is to start a blog on a topic you are passionate about- then you will surely post great content that others will be interested to read and soon you might end up earning money from it.

Buy and Sell sites. Make use of sites that offer free advertisements such as sulit.com.ph where you can set some of your old stuff (or new stuff) for sale to earn money. If you have an existing business, you can reach more customers and promote your product for free by using these sites. Of course, you have to be cautious of scammers to avoid being victimized.

Paid Surveys. There are survey sites that really pay but I think they are not so many. Plus those who pay don’t really give surveys frequently so earning money here is slow. It is usually a slow but sure process so answering these legit paid surveys is still worth it for me.

Paid to Click Sites: Earning takes so much patience but there are a lot of paid to click sites.

Paid to Post sites: There are websites like ezines, mylot, squidoo and forums that need people to post something to keep the sites or the forum alive. For those people who loves to write, earning will come easy here.

First Payment from Google Adsense

Earning money from your blog by using Google Adsense is not easy. In my experience, it requires lots of effort and patience. In fact I find Google Adsense very frustrating at first. When I started blogging, my Google Adsense earnings are actually zero. It was pathetic because I would be thrilled on days when my Adsense earnings would register a 0.1 to 0.10 amount until it dawned on me that it is only equivalent to more or less Php4 pesos.

I actually have given up on Adsense and just focus on blogging for the love of it. Besides, aside from Adsense, there are still many ways to earn from blogging.

Until I discovered niche blogging, SEO and social media and started to create new blogs for experiment. That is when my Adsense earnings started to rise. The amount are not huge but it is great improvement from my previous zero earnings.

And last November is a momentous event for my blogs because finally, I hit the USD100 required amount for payment in Google Adsense. My earnings hit USD100 in November and I was able to withdraw my earnings thru Western Union in December.

It was really nice to earn from doing something you love. I hope to receive my next Google Adsense payment soon.
