3 Fast and Easy Ways to Make Money

Seems like everyone is looking for the fastest and easiest way to make money on the internet.

Over the last 5 years or so, Ive tried literally every technique there is. Here are 3 quick and easy ways to make *some* money online.

Side note - because these are fast and easy methods, it means the amount of money to be made is somewhat limited. The most money you can make online will be from long term efforts requiring hard work (but who wants to do that?)

The following list is in no particular order as far as ease or money making potential

1) Write website articles and content.

I dont mean just start a blog and write content that floats around the net like the billions of other websites. By writing content, I mean to get paid for writing content for others.

One thing website owners lack is time. Time to write good, entertaining, educational, and grammatically correct content for their websites. If you have decent writing skills, you can write for many different types of companies and individual website owners (ie - your clients).

A mistake I see a lot of writers make is choosing the WRONG clients. When you decide to become a paid content writer, pick your customers, dont have them pick you. Dont go to those freelance sites and beg for work bid for work. Youll end up getting paid much less than you are worth and have annoying clients that expect you to work for peanuts from that point on.

Instead, contact existing websites that you want to write for. There is a trick to this however, if you want to be successful. Dont have your first contact be an email asking if they will buy your articles or asking how much they will pay for your content. Those kinds of emails are viewed as spam and will get you nowhere.

Instead, take the higher road and sacrifice your early profits. First, read what their website or blog is about. Try to get a feel for their style of communication. Then, write the most amazing article you could possibly imagine that would blow away their readers. Finally, GIVE THE ARTICLE TO THE WEBSITE OWNER FOR FREE.

What? You mean go above and beyond what the other 75,000 freelance writers will do to get work?

Absolutely! Let the website use your article or blog post on their website WITHOUT giving you credit for it. When you submit the article to them, be sure you tell them its a completely original article that is exclusive for their website. Tell them you are a freelance writer looking for a couple extra clients, and this article was to demonstrate your skills which will hopefully lead to more articles for them. They will be amazed by your generosity, and thats when reciprocity comes in. Theyll WANT TO HELP YOU because you helped them first.

Once they post your content to their website, you can follow up with them to see what they thought about your work. Thats when you can pitch your services to them. Do you see how this technique will get you much better results that shooting an email saying I write website content, $25 per 800 words. Would you like to buy some articles? (You laugh but I get emails like this everyday!)
Be sure to pick websites that a) have money to spend on content, and b) will need lots of fresh content to stay competitive in their market. If you do this simple technique, you can easily make $1,000 per month writing for one single website. (based on 40 articles per month at $25/article)

2) Be An Offline Affiliate Partner.

Affiliate marketing is a great way to earn a part time income. The problem is, internet marketing as an affiliate is pretty competitive since there are so many people doing it.

Instead, try promoting affiliate programs offline. Heres how you do it

Search online for an affiliate program you want to be promoting. Youll want to pick something that your local city/town would be interested in. For example, you can go to clickbank.com and search all the various products your can promote from their Marketplace.

Lets pick weight loss for this example. In clickbank, you can open up their Health & Fitness category and see all the programs you can promote. They are sorted by popularity, so typically the first 10 products listed in each category are the best sellers.

This makes your job easy as an affiliate, because you wont have to guess which products are best and easiest to sell.

Lets say we decide to promote the first one, Fat Loss For Idiots. Clickbank says we will earn about $30 for each sale of this product as an affiliate. Not bad.

To promote this product offline, its pretty simple. All you do is go to godaddy.com and purchase a domain name. Preferably something short and easy to remember since we will be promoting this link offline and people will have to type it in.

Once you purchase the $8 domain name, you need to get your affiliate link. If you are using clickbank, youll need to sign up for an account with them and then click the create hoplink link to get your affiliate referral link.

Now that you have your affiliate link, you take that affiliate URL and go back into your godaddy account to find the domain name you bought. There will be an option there to do a redirect. Choose that option, and it will ask you which URL you would like people to be redirected to when they type in your domain name. Here, you simply enter your affiliate link.

Thats all there is to it. Now that you are officially an affiliate partner, you can begin promoting your new website.

You can print up a flier or business cards with your URL on them, and post them on those corkboard message boards in your local gyms or grocery stores, stick them in fitness magazines in your local bookstore, anywhere you think people who are interested in weight loss will find them.

You can place classified ads in you local paper or pay a flier distribution service to put fliers on peoples mailboxes.

Your income will depend on how many people find your marketing materials and how many of those people actually go to the website to learn more. Theres no reason why you couldnt get 2-3 sales per week from this technique. So, 10 sales per month @ $30 each would put $300/month in your pocket and you can be up and running in about 3 hours from now.

3) Implement The Latest Internet Marketing Tricks For Others.

If you are like most people in the internet marketing niche, you have a hard drive full of ebooks teaching all the latest tricks to make money online. Many of these tricks actually do work, even if its for a short period of time. The problem is, a lot of these techniques require you to already have an existing website setup or have an existing email subscriber list, etc.

If you dont have these previous requirements, it can be frustrating for you because you know you can use these tricks if you just had the existing website or just had a subscriber list to start with.

Well, Ill be the first to tell you that I hardly ever get caught up in the latest tricks and fads of internet marketing. Not because I dont think they work, but instead because I dont have time to learn them and put them into use. Im too busy running my businesses (like most website owners) to get sidetracked by these new ideas.

Thats where you step in. Lets say you just bought an ebook teaching you how to use Youtube to generate lots of traffic to a website. Youve read this ebook 2 or 3 times and know this stuff inside out. Guess what? Now, YOURE CONSIDERED AN EXPERT.

Becoming an expert is pretty easy. In fact, if you know more than someone else about a certain topic, you are an expert compared to that other person. So, you being the expert on a specialized topic such as generating traffic from Youtube, can come to me as a website owner and propose an offer.

You can word is something like this

Hi website owner,

My name is Tom and I specialize in generating traffic to websites from Youtube. I think I can generate a substantial amount of traffic to your website from Youtube if you are interested in letting me try.

I dont charge any upfront fees or anything like that. If Im not able to send you traffic, you dont pay me a dime. If I do send new traffic to your site from Youtube, then Id only charge $0.05 per visitor (about 1/4 what you would pay for pay per click traffic).

Let me know if you are interested in trying this cutting edge marketing strategy for your business.

- Tom

In this case, everyone wins. You get to earn money by implementing your new skills, and the website owner gets cheap traffic without doing any work.

If you can get just 10 clients to agree to your terms, and you send each client 500 visitors per month from Youtube, youll make $250/month.

So there you have it. Three simple ways of making some money from the net

How to Write Best-Seller Book Reviews on Amazon

Many people think of Amazon as an amazing site where they can buy books or personal electronics items. What's not to like about Amazon, its ease of use, helpful shopping venues, and excellent customer service? While all of this is great for Amazon fans, for the past 5 years I have followed the progress and development of Amazon's various user platforms with equal interest. I must admit that Amazon is now one of my favorite sites to visit - mainly because of its success in meeting the needs of its users.

To tell you a secret, I often visit Amazon several times a week "just to hang out" or to see "what's new"! If you have not visited this site recently, you might be pleasantly surprised by all the "buzz" going on at Amazon. However, if you are already a fan of Amazon, you might visit occasionally to check out the price of a book or camera that you intend to buy or, like me, you may have become more involved in what is now called the greater "Amazon Community". Regardless of your current level of involvement with Amazon, you will find an extensive number of resources that anyone can use to connect with others who have similar ideas and interests.

Whether you want to write book reviews for your own pleasure, for social or academic purposes, or for driving traffic to your website or blog, Amazon is an excellent resource to use to make yourself and your ideas known. All of these resources are free and available for everyone to use. In addition, you are able connect from Amazon to two of the top social media networks using these resources. The main two social networks connected directly to Amazon currently are: Facebook and Twitter.

However, one resource of the Amazon community that I enjoy in particular is its book review platform. Anyone can review books on Amazon, and it's an extremely powerful user platform. For the purposes of this article, I would like to give you some brief ideas about writing best-seller book reviews on Amazon.

The first thing you need to decide is this:

For what subject(s) do I have a great amount of personal knowledge and passion?

For example, I have a language website and blog that I am currently developing. So I went to Amazon and conducted a few searches on some English language resource books that I have used myself. When I was still in college, I had developed an SAT Verbal Prep course which I taught to small high school study groups for many years. I conducted an "SAT Verbal Prep" search on Amazon. Immediately I saw the book "Hot Words for the SAT" which is a book that I had actually used in my SAT Prep course, so I chose this book from my search to write about.

However, what if your area of knowledge is photography? You would simply go to that category on an Amazon search and browse through the search results to find a book that you have read, or that you are at least familiar with, on your topic.

The second thing you would need to do is go to the actual page of the book for which you will write a review.

I did an Amazon book search on Photography to use as an example for this article. In the drop down menu before I actually clicked "Search", I saw the sub-category book title just for me - "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Photography Essentials"! It sounded promising and full of potential, so I clicked it.

The next page is your book's listings by the different Sellers on Amazon. But that is not what I am really interested in here. To the right of the book image is a row of 5 stars. I move my mouse over to the stars, and a hover box pops up automatically. It says that there are 37 reviews of this book, and it breaks the book reviews down into categories from 1 star (so-so) reviews of the book to the 5 star (best) reviews of the book. I also see the number of each type of review from 1 to 5. I click the 5 star reviews to see what a really good book review on Amazon looks like. I also read a few reviews in each category just to see what each reviewer has discussed concerning this book. What I don't want to do is repeat everything that has already been said; the main thing that I want to do is point out some fresh ideas about this book.

This brings me to some tips on actually writing the book review. Here are the most important ideas to remember:

1) Keep It Short.

Writing a book review on Amazon does not require you to summarize the book! I actually advise everyone to avoid this unless you just want to name three to four of the main chapters or headings to give the reader a broad sense of what the book covers. Common sense will tell you that if you are about to write the 38th review on a book, it probably has already been "summarized to death" by everyone else before you. In essence, they have done the hard work for you. So keep it light and use fresh ideas and perspectives.

2) Make It Personal.

For instance, you could mention when/where you first read the book, something like this: "I first read 'The Complete Idiot's Guide to Photography Essentials' by Mark Jenkinson as a high school sophomore. When I started using the ideas and applications found in this book for my own photography projects, I found that my photography skills improved significantly. Other people started asking me to take photos at their weddings and other family events. I actually credit my becoming a world class photographer to the ideas I first learned in this book". See what I mean? This makes you personal and credible to other review readers.

3) Be an Expert.

If you want people to view you as a resource in any niche field, you need to state in your review what qualifies you as an expert. For example, you might want to continue your book review with a statement such as follows: "As a photographer who has worked freelance for many scientific and geographic magazines, I find the book 'The Complete Idiot's Guide to Photography Essentials' to be an excellence reference tool that I have revisited many times throughout my career". Now you are not only seen as an "expert" but as an expert who has actually used this book to become successful!

4) Make a Recommendation.

Leave your book review by stating those you think would benefit from reading this book. For instance: "I highly recommend this book for people who want to learn the basics of photography as an easy to understand and easy to use guidebook". Got it? Okay, let me leave you with a few closing points.

Whatever you do - Keep it simple, and Remember this point: The folks who read the book reviews are also able to vote on your book review, so your review can be rated higher up the ranks to get you more exposure as a reviewer. This is ideally what you want. For example, whenever someone reads your review, this question appears: Was This Review Helpful to You? They can click "Yes" or "No". Of course you want people to click "Yes!" The more positive clicks you get, the quicker and higher you will rank as an Amazon Reviewer. Amazon also gives you a percentage ranking on "Helpful Votes" you have received as a reviewer!

There are so great a number of outstanding features within the Amazon user platform in this one area of writing book reviews that it would take many articles to cover all the possibilities. Whether you are interested in writing book reviews for your own pleasure, for social or academic purposes, or to drive extra traffic to your web page, blog, or website, Amazon is an excellent free resource for you to use to make yourself and your unique experiences known.

Farmville Strategies For Bottomless Gifts and Coins

So to start with, open up your internet browser and login to Farmville. Login via Facebook or straight from their internet site, it doesn't matter which way you pick. Secondly, opt for the friends you desire to launch gifts to and initiate to carry out just that. Rather than merely sending them the gift as customary, right click on the 'Free Gifts' button and hit 'Open in a new tab'. Persevere with doing this until you have about ten or more tabs open. You can open still more if you possess a vigorous computer. I also suggest practising this Farmville strategy when Facebook isn't in commission at its busy time or at its peak, like at nighttime or early on in the morning. You are a good deal more apt to receive errors when Facebook is busy and it will definitely be a waste of time for the reason that your computer will freeze or crash.

As soon as you have all the tabs open that you want open, decide on the gifts you want to forward to your neighbours. Go through all the tabs and select all the gifts before you dispatch them. If you send one too early, you will not be able to forward any of the further ones. When you have all the gifts elected, go ahead and transmit them as promptly as you can. Go through all your tabs and click send. It's vital that the confirmation be done back to back to make sure all your tabs are at the finishing step of sending the gift before you finish. You can in addition let your neighbours in on this FarmVille strategy and welcome the same back from them in terms of limitless gifts, which makes it a bit more of a team endeavor and every person is rewarded. I find this strategy to be terrific when neighbours and you are establishing erections and require resources to complete them, especially when there is a time cap on completion.

Something else you can carry out if you wish, is make a different account through facebook and send groovy gifts to yourself when ever you like. Merely keep in mind however, that facebook is not overly keen to commend false accounts with them and they may erase it any time they see fit.

Farmville Strategy Guide Is Essential For Serious Players

A good Farmville Strategy Guide is what makes the difference between a normal player and an expert. The information presented in the guide can get you from your little shack to a million dollar Villa within a few time and all your neighbours will be begging you to know how you did it. In this article Ill mention the three main reasons why do I use a Farmville strategy guide and how much difference it made in my game play.

When I started playing Facebooks Farmville I did what everybody does, which is to experiment the game and see what works and what doesnt work and I began to search the internet for tips to advance my farm. I did found a few strategies, some were empty promises and I wasted a lot of time.

The Farmville strategy techniques available online are cool and useful, but usually they are always the same as you keep searching with a little variation here and there. And besides, they are not mind blowing tricks that will skyrocket your farm. There are sites who ask you for your Farmville login name and password, and in exchange they give you a huge amount of coins into your account. This is the worst thing you can do because you can have your ID stolen and your account suspended or shut down.

The hours I wasted searching online for Farmville secret strategies and filling in the forms for such a small reward made the Farmville strategy guide idea very tempting to me.

As I told you, there are lots of software and bots for Farmville that promise you millions of coins but they are not reliable, as they may not even work. Besides, they are totally illegal.

The Farmville directors will shut your account in a second and your personal information will be stolen by someone who is ready to exploit you. But neither one of these two options is very appealing, isnt it? With a Farmville strategy guide all tips and techniques are absolutely legal and your account will never be at risk.

The Farmville creators are dealing with an illegal advertising on the game, which promises you free coins if you just fill out a form.

According to various victims, the method was illegal and they were surprised by a huge bill when they were just trying to win a few coins. The methods used on Farmville strategy guide teach you the best strategies so you can win more money than you will ever need without the risk of filling out an illegal form.

Farmville strategy guide allows you to play the game instead of wasting time searching the web for the next trick, avoiding illegal software and avoiding filling out numerous forms for a handful of coins. If you want to play Farmville to its full potential, then the Farmville strategy guide is a must.



The Dangers Of FarmVille Cheats

FarmVille Cheats are a much sought after search phrase according to Google, Yahoo and Bing with players hoping to find that secret key to success. FarmVille which has exploded in popularity over the last six months has quickly become one of the most popular online games in the world. Now this brings us back to the FarmVille cheats which people are counting on to get them to the top levels of the game and pave the way to the million dollar FarmVille villa.

There are a wide variety of websites that are offering FarmVille cheats but what they actually are closer to FarmVille strategies. There are a couple blatant FarmVille cheats that will get your account canceled and your computer sick with viruses plus a few of them you need an advance degree in Computer engineering to pull off. Through out this article I will look at both sides of the coin when it comes to FarmVille cheats.

The positive side of the coin when it comes to FarmVille cheats or FarmVille strategies is that there are a number of solid pieces of advice that will help you get your farm to the next level. These particular strategies breakdown each FarmVille category so you know what items that you should be focusing on to get the most out of your farm. There is also my favorite strategy which is known as the FarmVille hay bale cheat where you trap your farmer in the center of your farm and as a result your game speeds up dramatically.
To become one of the elite players in FarmVille I would highly suggest to quit searching for FarmVille cheats and pick up a FarmVille strategy guide. Inside of a top FarmVille strategy guide such as the FarmVille Secrets or the FarmVille Wizard strategy guide the top players in the game show you the exact method in getting your FarmVille farm to the very top in all areas.

Unfortunately due to the explosion of FarmVille there are a number of people out there who have decided to use this great game for bad intentions. What they are doing is asking for your login name and password and they promise you all sorts of things to improve your farm but that is not what happens. Instead they use your login information to access your personal information and spam the heck out of your friends and neighbors. Slowly the people behind FarmVille are getting rid of these type of sites but the cheat sites have exploded and it will be sometime to catch them all. Piece of advice is never give out your FarmVille login information to anyone.

FarmVille trainers are the latest FarmVille cheats to appear on the net and basically a trainer is used to manipulate your FarmVille stats so you get more for less. The problems are that everyone will know that you are using them and Zynga will close down your account because of it. The second problem with FarmVille trainers is that they are loaded with all sorts of garbage from viruses to spy ware. Here are three basic rules when it comes to cheats from any game: (1) Never give out your name and password (2) Never download anything that does not come from the creator of the game (3) If you want a huge advantage over your friends and other players invest in a strategy guide.

Facebook FarmVille Cheats The FarmVille Wizard Strategy Guide

When I started to play FarmVille on Facebook I did what most players did and basically tried to learn the game from scratch but within a couple of weeks I was not happy with the way my farm was performing so I began to search the internet for Facebook FarmVille cheats. After trying out a few so called cheats plus reading on a number of forums about problems people were having with FarmVille trainers and with sites that stole their FarmVille login name and password I became pretty weary about what I saw. A friend of mine who suddenly went from a FarmVille newbie to living in a million dollar Villa in an extraordinary amount of time introduced me to the FarmVille Wizard which is a Facebook FarmVille Strategy Guide.

The FarmVille Wizard cost me $27 and to be honest it was worth every single penny for now I know all of the tricks and secrets to bring my FarmVille farm to the top of the list. No more searching around the net hoping some FarmVille Guru lost his mind overnight and let out all of the secrets about my favorite Facebook name. No more filling out dodgy surveys to gain a few measly coins as my FarmVille bank account basically doubles each and every night. Now I can focus on actually playing FarmVille and not searching for help that is not available freely on the web.

Now there are people out there that consider using a Facebook FarmVille strategy guide such as the FarmVille Wizard cheating and to a very small degree I do agree but with the information I gained from the strategy guide I know now how to play the game how it was suppose to be played. I now know the importance of every single factor when it comes to FarmVille and can do what I feel is best for me and my farm. Instead of calling FarmVille Wizard a cheat look at it as an education in how to run the greatest farm possible on Facebook. If I supplied you with a ton of information and then you wrote a test about said information would that be called cheating?



The differences between Facebook Video me and Google Hangouts

A week after the launch of Google own social networking applications to test its video chat, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg on July 6 also launch the joint video chat service with Skype.

It is much interestiing that Facebook and Google provides services with major differences. Facebook video chat is just one to one service, the company will treat this tool as an additional tool, "for most people, it does not belong to one of their daily activities."

A engineer from Facebook video calls team, Philip explained that the video chat is too difficult to establish, or the user would like to voice chat with friends using different services and can not establish a voice conversation.

But Google do not think so."With the launch of Google +, we hoped to congregate entertainment, flow lines and occasionally in one screen, so we created a Hangouts." Google director of real-time communications technology Justin said, "By chance encounter chat with more than a combination, Hangouts allows users to have time to stop, and their circle of people communicate with each other."

"Lack of robust video chat solution, Facebook has become a vulnerability." China bulk wholesale electronics ePathChina analyst Yide Huang told reporters. "Now the company has for the user adds an important communication tool, which may allow users to log on after a longer stay in line."

Eileen said that while Facebook / SKYPE solution is the standard video chat, but Google's Hangouts video chat feature is also re-thinking. "It is trying to replicate real-life mobility group chat, from the early Internet chat rooms to find inspiration." She added.

Facebook has a huge user base, and far ahead of the competition. Facebook users spend an average of 6.5 hours per month with other people for a month's time to connect with other people.

"Video Me" soon means "Let's video chat on Facebook," market research firm Forrester Research analyst Henry wrote in a blog. "This connection will allow more connections invitation, will also lead to people on Facebook to participate in more activities."

The Google + only just started, which the user is busy establishing their own social circle and send the invitation, can not rely on the user's video chat to attract traffic.

Nevertheless, the China cheap electronics wholesaleePathChina statistics show that, Facebook video chatters in the service position is correct. The ePathChina found that while 19 percent of American adults have tried through the network or mobile phone video chat, but only 4% of Internet users in one day there will be a video call, chat or conference calls and other acts.

Make Money Online - 7 Strategies to Help You Make Money Online And Work From Home

On January 1, 2010 A Google search for "Make Money Online" showed a whopping 11 million results! There are so many confusing options that it is hard to decide which option to choose. What is more, "Make Money Online" is synonymous with scams. The Internet is full of Get Rich Quick Scams and Make Money Online Scams.

In fact it is very difficult to find legitimate ways to work from home and make money online. However, if it was really impossible to make money online then popular websites like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Google, etc. would not be making millions of dollars on the internet. Are they not "Making Money Online"? Is it necessary to be a geek if you got to make money online? What exactly does it take to become a successful Internet entrepreneur even if you are not a software engineer?


Throughout the ages we have seen how the poor wish that they had more money to enjoy their lives, and how the rich wish that they had more time and better health to enjoy their lives. Some people genuinely need more money. Some people desire to work from home and spend more time with their family. Some people, whether they desire more money or not, are so caught up in making a living that they forget how to live. Whatever it is, the truth is that most of us often wish to have more money and more free time. What would make it possible to get the best of both the worlds? Anyone who wants to have lots of money, lots of free time, lots of fun, better health, more happiness, more freedom, more success, and more control over their lives should pause and reflect, "Is it really possible to have all of them together or is that a pipe dream"? Contrary to what some ancient philosophers might have said, in this new age of the Internet it is indeed possible to live this dream and you will soon discover how easy it is to make your dreams come true!

Have you ever thought what you will do when you have lots of money and lots of free time at your disposal? Have you ever visualized a new, exciting lifestyle which gives you the freedom to live the life that you love and do all that you have ever wanted to do - be your own boss, live life on your own terms, travel around the world, buy a luxurious car, finance your college education, step into your own house, spend more quality time with your family and friends, take care of a loved one, take your family on a holiday, pursue your hobbies, devote yourself to a cause, or buy that expensive gift for someone special? What will you do when you have an abundance of money, time, freedom, and control over your life?


Hard work pays, but sometimes people who work too hard often have a hard time enjoying their health, life, and money. The equation for real freedom is: -

Lots of Money + Lots of Free Time = Lots of Fun!


A mobile lifestyle that uses technology to put your income on autopilot is indeed the new world dream! More and more people are getting bored of bureaucracy, red tape, dirty office politics, and the typical 9 to 5 rat race. These are the fetters that bind the feet of creative, adventurous souls who want to live life to its fullest.

A "mobile lifestyle" is a lifestyle that gives you the freedom to work from wherever you wish, and whenever you wish. It allows you to make big money and still have lots of fun and lots of free time. Even millionaires covet this lifestyle, because often millionaires don't have the time to enjoy their riches.


Even if you are hard pressed for time, take one small step in the right direction at a time, and you will finally find that you have taken that giant leap of coming out of the rut sooner than you think. You will soon find yourself enjoying a new, exciting lifestyle.


Thanks to the modern Internet age and the ease of global trade, it is possible for anyone to reach millions of people worldwide and grow rich without any soul-crushing, back-breaking hard work. To earn while you sleep or while you spend quality time with your family and friends is no longer pulp-fiction but reality! Working long hours stuck in a stuffy office is a thing of the past. Today whether you are relaxing on the world's most beautiful beach or sailing to your dream destination in a cruise ship, the Internet allows you to reach out to millions of people worldwide and to run your business from anywhere. And as you already know, computers continue to work for you while you are partying, sleeping, or dreaming!! Have you ever imagined what it would be like to earn millions while you are on a vacation with your family and friends, enjoying your life?

Here Are The Top 7 Ways To Make Money Online, working from home or from anywhere you want: -


1.) Earn Money by Selling / Promoting Other People's Products or Services (Join Affiliate Programs):

Affiliate Programs are also known as "Associate Programs", "Referral Programs", "Partner Programs", etc. An affiliate program is a business model in which a business rewards you for each visitor or customer that you send to their business website. You sign up for free with a merchant to advertise their products or services on your blog or website, and then you get paid a commission (upto 75% of the sale value!) based on the sales that you generate. A cool way to automate your income is to join a recurring affiliate program. High earning potential and highly recommended.


2.) Make Money by Becoming a Professional Blogger:

If you are passionate about writing, you can earn money by becoming a professional blogger. If you have good writing skills and if you are very passionate about a niche topic then you can write blogs and make tens of thousands of dollars per month by sharing your knowledge and helping millions of people who read your blogs to choose the right products and services. However, your success as a professional blogger not only depends on your writing skills and sincerity but also on your marketing skills.

3.) Earn Money by Monetizing Your Blog or Website:

Blog monetization or website monetization is the process of converting existing traffic being sent to a particular blog or website into revenue. You do that by displaying advertisements and/or banners on your site. Every time someone clicks an advertisement on your site you get paid an amount ranging from a few cents to several dollars, based upon a number of factors. These advertisements are called Pay Per Click (PPC) advertisements. To display PPC advertisements and banners on your blog or website you need to create free accounts with AdSense (or other similar sites such as Obeus, Bidvertiser, AdBrite, Chitika, Kontera, AdHitz, etc.) and then copy and paste the HTML code which they will provide you for your site. This is a neat way to autopilot your income. Another way to monetize your blogs and website is to join free affiliate programs and display affiliate advertisements. In fact, you will make much more money with affiliate programs than with PPC advertisements.

4.) Earn Money by Selling Photographs and Drawings Online:

Here is the coolest way to have fun and get paid for it - travel around the world (or just around your own neighborhood), take good quality photographs, upload them to sites such as ShutterStock, iStockPhoto, etc. for free and get paid each and every time someone downloads a copy of any of your photographs! These photographs should have some commercial value. Remember, these graphics are purchased by professional web designers, screen saver developers, magazine editors, and other people who will use them for commercial purposes. If you are good at drawing, you can get paid to draw by scanning your drawings and selling them in the same way as you sell photographs. For the free spirited, artistic soul this is the perfect, fun way of making money online.

5.) Earn Money by Selling Items on eBay and Other Similar Sites:

Many people earn hundreds, even millions of dollars by selling things on eBay, CQout, eBid, Amazon, and other eCommerce sites. You can sell almost everything that is legal - electronics, cars, clothing, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods, digital cameras, antiques, real estate, etc. This is a perfect work from home job and you save a lot of money because by working from home you don't have to pay any shop rent and other shop or store related expenses such as the electricity and maintenance bills. Apart from that you are selling to millions of potential customers worldwide, and you have the freedom to work whenever you want. You are your own boss. You can exponentially increase your revenues by simultaneously selling on eBay and other competing sites (e.g. CQout, which is popular in Europe, especially in the UK). Some
sites even allow you to list your products for free.

6.) Earn Money by Selling Your Own Product:

If the idea of inventing a new product and making a fortune by selling it scares you, think again! A product can be something as simple as an eBook, or a T-shirt designed by you. Whether it is a simple, 10 page report in the form of a .pdf eBook or a sophisticated software product, you can be assured of making a fortune by selling a good product. If you have conceptualized a product but don't know how to develop it, you can hire experts/engineers to do it for you from elance.com, scriptlance.com, etc. If you have already created a great downloadable informational product, then sit back and relax - all you have to do is to list it on ClickBank and thousands of affiliates will promote it for you for a commission. You will sell thousands of copies of your informational product without any efforts from you!

Income Automated? Having others sell your products for a commission is the best way to put your income on autopilot. This is what I mean by "earn while you sleep". [However, if you lose your sleep and wake every few hours to check your increasing account balance, don't blame me ;) ] If your products are concrete, tangible objects then you can sell them on the eCommerce sites described above. If your product is a downloadable eBook, software, video, or some other informational product you might also try out PayLoadz.com and e-Junkie.com in addition to ClickBank.com.


7.) Make Real Big Money Online - The Geek Way to Make Money Online:

This is the ultimate! If you are a techie, then to make real big money, and we mean "REAL B-I-G MONEY" you need to create and own a membership website and make it extremely popular and commercially successful like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, etc. Sounds difficult? Believe me, it isn't!!

According to Inc.com, Markus Frind, a programmer learning ASP.NET, single handedly created a free dating website while he was still learning ASP.NET. He works just one hour a day but makes a whopping $10,000,000 USD per year (2008 estimates) from Ads that appear within user profiles!!!

How did he do it? He kept things simple and operational costs low! And while other dating websites were charging a subscription fee to users, Markus provided the full functionality of his website to users for FREE! When I created a Plentyoffish account I was surprised to see its simple user interface, low quality of images, and a non-existent customer service. The point that I want to make is that inspite of these drawbacks, the website manages to make 10 million dollars per year for its singleton owner!

The "Geek Way" is for Techies/Computer Geeks/Software Engineers, but then it is very easy for techies and maybe for you too! If you are a software engineer or a computer science student, you should give this a serious thought. If you are not a technical person but have a great idea, hire engineers and technical experts to make exactly what you tell them. You can hire them from several places such as Elance.com, scriptlance.com, etc.

7.) Make Real Big Money Online - The Geek Way to Make Money Online:

This is the ultimate! If you are a techie, then to make real big money, and we mean "REAL B-I-G MONEY" you need to create and own a membership website and make it extremely popular and commercially successful like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, etc. Sounds difficult? Believe me, it isn't!!

According to Inc.com, Markus Frind, a programmer learning ASP.NET, single handedly created a free dating website while he was still learning ASP.NET. He works just one hour a day but makes a whopping $10,000,000 USD per year (2008 estimates) from Ads that appear within user profiles!!!

How did he do it? He kept things simple and operational costs low! And while other dating websites were charging a subscription fee to users, Markus provided the full functionality of his website to users for FREE! When I created a Plentyoffish account I was surprised to see its simple user interface, low quality of images, and a non-existent customer service. The point that I want to make is that inspite of these drawbacks, the website manages to make 10 million dollars per year for its singleton owner!

The "Geek Way" is for Techies/Computer Geeks/Software Engineers, but then it is very easy for techies and maybe for you too! If you are a software engineer or a computer science student, you should give this a serious thought. If you are not a technical person but have a great idea, hire engineers and technical experts to make exactly what you tell them. You can hire them from several places such as Elance.com, scriptlance.com, etc.

Differences Between IPhone and Android Apps

With the official arrival Android, consumers are comparing the apps offered by iPhone and Android. In our technologically savvy age, consumers are making choices based on what are the latest and best options that will perform as they expect. When considering smart phones and the services they can provide, the differences between the apps could determine their decision making process.

New to the Android platform are popular iPhone apps, Facebook and Pandora. The key difference between the user experiences of these apps is that with Android they have a presence on the home screen. Designed by the Android developers to increase the user friendly feel, this is a strength in the Android platform.

iPhone has completed some updates of their Facebook application by adding Facebook Events and video uploading that is direct to Facebook. This update has been well reviewed by diehard iPhone users and critics. The Facebook app is one of the most used and most popular of all of the iPhone apps as social networking sites have grown in popularity.
The Facebook app developed for Android that was created by a collaboration from Google and Facebook has been criticized for lacking many of the integral features that the iPhone app has. However, it does benefit from the ability of running apps in the background that the Android platform has. Its home screen widget and Facebook contacts folder are clear benefits and have an ease of use.

User friendly, the widget created by Android app developers is a blank box where you can update your Facebook status and below it lists your friends' updates as well and is self updating. From this app, Android creates a contact list based on your friends if they have phone numbers listed in their profile. The contacts are well organized in an alphabetical manner. It also lists their profile picture which can be used as an icon that you can press to pull up their phone number in the Android dialer. The functionality of this app is makes staying in touch via Facebook easy.

When comparing the iPhone and Android app capabilities for Pandora, they are nearly identical. Pandora has proven to be hugely popular with iPhone users, so Pandora wanted to make it just as successful with Android. The Android app developers created an app that focuses on Android's ability to run applications in the background. A user either use the full screen Pandora app or exit to the home screen where a widget can be used to rate songs and control music playing options easily. However, if you need to switch stations, you will need to go full screen to do so.

As the Android roll out are fairly new, new apps and updates to existing apps will be continually available. If you are in the market for a new smart phone and want to see which platform will suit you best, make sure to do research on the apps available and their reviews for both iPhone and Android.

Samsung Epic 4G (Sprint)

The bad: The Samsung Epic 4G is the bulkiest of the Galaxy S phones and also the priciest. It also requires a costly data plan.

The bottom line: The Samsung Epic 4G is a multimedia powerhouse with features the other Galaxy S phones don't have. Unfortunately, it comes with a big price tag.

Editors' note, August 18, 2010: Upon further analysis, we have upgraded the rating of the Samsung Epic 4G to 8.7.

Portions of the user interface section were taken from our review of the Samsung Vibrant since both phones have the TouchWiz user interface.

Out of all the phones in the Samsung Galaxy S series, the Epic 4G strikes us as the most desirable for power users. Like all Galaxy S phones, the Epic 4G has a large Super AMOLED touch screen, a 1GHz Hummingbird Cortex A8 processor, and it will have access to Samsung's upcoming Media Hub store. The Epic 4G layers on several enticing extras that its line mates don't have--such as a slide-out keyboard, a front-facing camera, an LED flash, and most intriguing of all, it supports Sprint's nascent 4G WiMax network. The latter feature makes it the second 4G phone in the U.S. after the HTC Evo 4G.

Perhaps the Epic 4G's biggest downside is its price. At $249.99, it is the most expensive Galaxy S phone that Samsung makes, and that price is with a new two-year service agreement and after a $100 mail-in rebate. As with the Evo 4G, Sprint charges a mandatory $10 per month for its 4G data. According to Sprint, the price is justifiable because of the extra services you get for the price--4G speeds, unlimited data, and the use of it as a mobile Wi-Fi hot spot, which costs an additional $29.99 a month--but we think the add-on should be optional since its 4G service is not available nationwide.

However, we think the Epic 4G truly deserves its name as its design and feature set make it the all-in-one powerhouse in the Galaxy S family.

Design
While it is not the sexiest of the Samsung Galaxy S models--that honor goes to the Samsung Vibrant for T-Mobile--the Epic 4G is not a bad-looker either. Its rounded edges, curved corners, and glossy black surface give it a sleek and elegant look that is minimalist and eye-catching. Yet, at 4.9 inches long by 2.54 inches wide by 0.56 inches thick and 5.46 ounces, the Epic 4G is perhaps the SUV of the Galaxy S phones and might be a tight fit in most pockets. Still, we appreciate its heft as it contributes to a decidedly solid and durable feel in the hand.

The Samsung Epic 4G has a very impressive 4.0-inch Super AMOLED display.

The Epic 4G's 4.0-inch Super AMOLED display absolutely mesmerized us. It can display 16 million colors and has a WVGA resolution, which enables it to display vibrant graphics and fantastic looking video. The screen also has a wider viewing angle and a higher contrast ratio when compared with a traditional LCD. Thankfully, unlike older OLED displays, the Super AMOLED screen also looks great under bright sunlight.

We found the touch-screen display to be quite responsive. It didn't take long for it to register our taps, and flipping through menus and lists felt intuitive and second nature. If you like, the Epic 4G provides vibration and sound effects as touch feedback, though we didn't think it was necessary. The accelerometer kicked in very quickly, less than a second, to change the screen orientation when we rotated the phone. We're also glad that the Epic 4G has a proximity sensor, which turns off the screen when we hold the phone to our ear during a call. As for input methods, you can use Swype or the standard Android virtual keyboard. Underneath the display are four touch-sensitive keys for the menu, home, back, and search, which are standard for Android phones.

The Samsung Epic 4G is the only Galaxy S phone with a physical keyboard.

While you can always use the virtual keyboard, the Epic 4G also has a slide-out physical keyboard. Just slide the display to the right and you'll find an incredibly spacious QWERTY keyboard with five whole rows of keys. The physical keyboard gives you a dedicated row of number keys as well as four physical versions of the touch-sensitive controls we mentioned earlier. As we're not big fans of touch-sensitive controls, we're very pleased with the latter. Not only is the keyboard well spaced, but also the keys are highly clickable, with just the right amount of tactile response when pressed. It's certainly one of the better mobile QWERTY keyboards we've tested.

The Epic 4G's other physical controls are the volume rocker on the left spine, and the power/screen lock key and camera button on the right. The phone has 3.5mm headset jack and a Micro-USB port on the top, while its back houses the camera lens and an LED flash. We should note that the Samsung Epic 4G is the only Galaxy S phone with an LED flash for the camera. It is also the only Galaxy S phone to have a front-facing camera, which is located to the upper right of the display. The microSD card slot is located behind the battery cover.

Sprint ships the Samsung Epic 4G with an AC adapter, a USB cable, a wired stereo headset with interchangeable ear bud covers, and reference material. You can also purchase a docking station and a battery charging station, which are available separately. For more add-ons, please check our cell phones accessories, ringtones, and help page.

User interface
Like the rest of the Galaxy S series, the Epic 4G runs on Android 2.1 with Samsung's TouchWiz 3.0 interface. The latter is definitely improved from previous versions, with some enhanced functionality and a more polished look.

To start, there are new widgets, including one called Feeds & Updates and another called Buddies Now. Feeds & Updates streams updates from Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace, and you can choose to display content from one, two, or all three of the social-networking Web sites, as well as set the refresh rate, ranging from 30 minutes to once a day. Buddies Now is like a favorites list and lets you immediately call or text those contacts, as well as comment on any of their updates. There are a number of other Samsung widgets, Android widgets, and other shortcuts, all of which can be added to one of seven home screens.

The home screens can also be personalized with live wallpaper, but there are two elements that remain on each screen: the pull-down notification tray on top, which now includes wireless manager and profile functions, and the toolbar along the bottom with quick-launch buttons to the phone dialer, contacts, messaging, and applications. Pressing the latter takes you to a nice grid view of all your apps; they're spread out over several pages, which you can swipe from side to side. The menu icons are also neatly arranged inside squares for a more unified look. We much prefer this layout over the standard Android one, where you have to scroll up and down. It feels more natural, easier to navigate, and is easier to use than the standard Android interface.

Also, for those worried about how the TouchWiz interface may interfere with future Android updates, according to Samsung, the entire Galaxy S portfolio will be upgradeable to Android 2.2, and it has made tweaks to the user interface that will make it easier to adapt it to future Android versions. However, the company also noted that without really knowing what Google has planned down the line, there may be a time where updates can't be supported because of hardware limitations or other factors.

The Samsung Epic 4G is a CDMA phone that supports 3G and 4G connectivity--3G is in the form of EV-DO Rev. A, while 4G is in the form of Sprint's WiMax. While we weren't able to test the 4G connectivity at the time of this writing, you can read our review of the HTC Evo 4G to get some idea of our experiences with Sprint's 4G WiMax service. Like the Evo 4G, you can use the Epic 4G as a mobile Wi-Fi hots pot for up to five devices. However, bear in mind that this mobile broadband hot spot service costs an extra $29.99 a month.

Unsurprisingly, the Epic 4G comes with a few basic smartphone features like the speakerphone, conference calling, voice dialing, text and multimedia messaging, visual voice mail, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and GPS. The latter is compatible with Sprint's Navigation service, though we're slightly partial to Google's Maps with Navigation app. The phone book is limited to available memory and there's room in each entry for multiple numbers, e-mail addresses, IM handles, group IDs, photo caller IDs, and more.

You can merge all your contacts from your various email and social network accounts into your phonebook with Samsung's Social Hub feature. The phone is often smart enough to link the contacts for you, but we found we had to do some manual linking for a few of our contacts. As for e-mail, the Epic 4G works with Gmail in addition to your own POP3, IMAP, and Exchange accounts, and you can view a combined in-box for all your e-mail if you like. As with the other Galaxy S phones, this works best if you have relatively few e-mail folders-- too many of them will result in a rather cluttered interface. The calendar also syncs nicely with your Google or Outlook calendar.

Since the Epic 4G has a front-facing VGA camera, it makes sense that Sprint has included the Qik video chat app with the phone. With Qik and the front camera, you are able to make and answer video calls provided the other person also has a Qik account. You can also video chat with someone who has Qik running on a PC. The Qik video chat service is free, but there's a premium service that provides higher resolution and video archiving for $4.99 a month. You can use Qik with Wi-Fi, 4G, and 3G networks, but its video is noticeably choppier when connected via 3G.

Other apps on the Epic 4G include the alarm clock, the Android Webkit Web browser, the calculator, Facebook, the memo pad, Google Talk, ThinkFree Office, the voice dialer, Google voice search, the Asphalt video game, and YouTube. Since it is a Sprint phone, you also get a few standard Sprint apps like Sprint Zone, Sprint Navigation, Sprint Football, Nascar Sprint Mobile, and Sprint TV. You can get more apps via the Android Market.

The Epic 4G's beautiful Super AMOLED display makes the phone well suited for watching media. You can watch content from YouTube and Sprint TV, though the video quality from both sources doesn't quite do the display justice. Thankfully, eventually you'll be able to rent and purchase content on the Epic 4G from Samsung's Media Hub that will launch later this year. According to Samsung, its service will include both TV shows and movies; however, we don't yet know the names of the content partners. If you like, you can load your own videos--the Epic 4G supports MP4 video formats in addition to DivX- and DivX HD-encoded media files. The phone is also compatible with Samsung's AllShare service that lets you wirelessly share stored media (that includes pictures, HD video, and more) to other DLNA-certified home electronics.

As with all Android phones, you can purchase and download songs from the Amazon MP3 store, and of course, you can load your own music via USB or microSD. The music player has 5.1-channel surround sound and it has a pretty album cover interface similar to Apple's Cover Flow. The phone only has 1GB of internal memory, so we would advise the use of microSD cards for storing media. The Epic 4G can take up to 16GB microSD cards.

The Samsung Epic 4G has a 5.0-megapixel camera and an LED flash.

Last, but definitely not least, is the 5.0-megapixel camera, which can record video in HD. Its picture quality is pretty impressive. We thought the images looked sharp and colors were nice and natural. Low-light shots weren't so hot, but, thankfully, the Epic 4G has an LED flash that helped considerably. Some of the camera settings include ISO, blink and smile detection, and panorama mode.

The Samsung Epic 4G took pretty good photos.

Performance
We tested the Samsung Epic 4G in San Francisco using the Sprint Nextel service. Call quality was very good for the most part. There was a tiny bit of voice distortion in our caller's voice as well as the occasional static, but that didn't ruin the overall call. They came through loud and clear, albeit a little tinny.

Our callers said the same about us; they detected no background sound. However, they said the voice quality was noticeably tinny and harsh. Still, its voice clarity wins out in the end, and they had no major complaints with call quality. The same goes for the speakerphone-- as expected, there was a slight hollowness and echo effects to the calls, but it was overall clear and clean.

We tested the handset's 4G support in Seattle using Sprint's and Clearwire's WiMax network. On the whole, coverage was reliable, though it can be spotty depending on your exact location. We found reliable service in the airport and its immediate surroundings, the downtown area, the Capitol Hill neighborhood, and the city of Renton, Wash. We also took the Epic 4G for a ride on Seattle's light rail between the airport and downtown. We bounced back to 3G a couple of times during the trip, specifically in the Tukwila and Rainier Beach areas. We also didn't get 4G service in tunnels, but that's understandable.

When we were connected, the service was strong and graphics-heavy Web sites loaded quickly. Airliners.net fully loaded in 15 seconds and Giantbomb.com took 25 seconds. In contrast, mobile sites like CNN took barely any time at all. YouTube videos were fast, as well, and we downloaded apps from the Android Market. It took about 15 seconds to download a track from the Amazon MP3 store, which is comparable to our experience on the Evo 4G. For your reference, Sprint says its 4G WiMax network can provide wireless speeds up to 10 times faster than today's 3G, with average download speeds ranging from 3Mbps to 6Mbps and peak download speeds of up to 10Mbps and upload speeds of 1Mbps. Compare that with 3G's average download speeds of 600kbps to 1.4Mbps and peak download speeds of 1.3Mbps.

Connected via Sprint's 3G network, the phone performed well. We loaded the BBC mobile Web page in just 5 seconds, and the full CNET page in just 12 seconds. We experienced only a few seconds buffering time for YouTube videos, even in high quality. We enjoyed the high-quality YouTube videos for the most part, but we still noticed some artifacts and inconsistent color tones in the background. The default MP4 video file that Samsung provided looked much better because of its HD quality

The 1GHz Hummingbird Cortex A8 application processor did its job well. Apps launched quickly, and we didn't experience too many hiccups with menu transitions and multitasking.

The Samsung Epic 4G has a 1,500mAh lithium ion battery with a rated battery life of 7.5 hours talk time and 21 days standby time. The Epic 4G had a talk time of 6 hours and 43 minutes in 3G. According to FCC radiation tests, the Epic 4G has a digital SAR of 0.68 watt per kilogram and has a Hearing Aid Compatibility Rating of M3/T3.

We bounced back to 3G a couple of times during the trip, specifically in the Tukwila and Rainier Beach areas. We also didn't get 4G service in tunnels, but that's understandable.

When we were connected, the service was strong and graphics-heavy Web sites loaded quickly. Airliners.net fully loaded in 15 seconds and Giantbomb.com took 25 seconds. In contrast, mobile sites like CNN took barely any time at all. YouTube videos were fast, as well, and we downloaded apps from the Android Market. It took about 15 seconds to download a track from the Amazon MP3 store, which is comparable to our experience on the Evo 4G. For your reference, Sprint says its 4G WiMax network can provide wireless speeds up to 10 times faster than today's 3G, with average download speeds ranging from 3Mbps to 6Mbps and peak download speeds of up to 10Mbps and upload speeds of 1Mbps. Compare that with 3G's average download speeds of 600kbps to 1.4Mbps and peak download speeds of 1.3Mbps.

Connected via Sprint's 3G network, the phone performed well. We loaded the BBC mobile Web page in just 5 seconds, and the full CNET page in just 12 seconds. We experienced only a few seconds buffering time for YouTube videos, even in high quality. We enjoyed the high-quality YouTube videos for the most part, but we still noticed some artifacts and inconsistent color tones in the background. The default MP4 video file that Samsung provided looked much better because of its HD quality

The 1GHz Hummingbird Cortex A8 application processor did its job well. Apps launched quickly, and we didn't experience too many hiccups with menu transitions and multitasking.

The Samsung Epic 4G has a 1,500mAh lithium ion battery with a rated battery life of 7.5 hours talk time and 21 days standby time. The Epic 4G had a talk time of 6 hours and 43 minutes in 3G. According to FCC radiation tests, the Epic 4G has a digital SAR of 0.68 watt per kilogram and has a Hearing Aid Compatibility Rating of M3/T3.
