Is email posting effective?

I was just wondering how this works?  I activated my email posting for sometime now yet, i never tested it.  This is going to be the first time.  Now, what should I write about?
 
Hmm....  another thing that bothers me is how many people started blogging?  what made them blog and where did they blog first?  what did they write about and is it worth reading?  do they still have a copy of their blogs or they just let them roam around in cyberspace.  regardless, i think this is an effective way to enhance your writing skills.

tweet your way to sales - social impact

i read once in Entrepreneur.com that you can use social networking sites to advertise your business.  why not?  your number 1 customers are your friends and families anyway, so why not use it to your advantage.

Facebook
who doesn't have facebook?  I mean, come on people... its not the stone age anymore.  You're so behind if you don't have facebook. 

with credits to Soraya Del Mar, she had effectively used facebook to enhance her business.  Soraya and I used to worked together, and I know personally that she is a fashionista by heart.  Since we know her taste and styles, once she established her online business, we got on board, buying from her accessories and stuff.  what she does is posts pictures of her products and voila, instant hit!  i bought 2 bags and pouches from her and waiting for other uploads.

Twitter
If you love blabbing about your business, why not blab it in 140 character long ads, in twitter.  twitter can be updated anytime, especially if you have it as a phone application. 

Youtube
You can make a video of your service or product and upload it in youtube.  you can use the embed codes to put the video in your site too.  innovative and completely up-to-date... above all, its FREE.

Read other marketing ideas here and here.

Remember, these are small things that create great impact for your business.  Your friends and families are your number 1 supporter, they are also your number 1 clients.

Enjoy!

Paid-to Sites




I have come across so many paid-to sites that i've lost count.  some of them are legitimate while others... well, let's just say don't waste your time.

there's nothing wrong with earning online and have fun too.  if you really think this sites are for you, go ahead.  it wouldn't hurt to try.  The thing about earning online (unless you established it yourself) is to really take the time to do so, think it through, and have tons of patience and hard work.  This isn't a rich schemes and this isn't a substitute for a "job".  Not all sites will let you earn your dream earnings, but it will be a great addition to your monthly earnings.  For literary majors and budding writers, all of these sites will help you improve your writing skills.


PAID-TO-POSTS SITES:

Mylot
This site is fun if you love forum sites.  each post will earn you $0.02 and upon reaching the payout.  they will send it to your paypal account.  It's not much. and again, this is not a substitute to your job.

Epinions and Reviewstreams
These sites let you write reviews and earn from it.  Your earnings depend on how many clicks you have and the comments / rates you get from the readers.  If you consider yourself a critic, these sites are for you. 


PAID-TO-CLICK SITES:

I don't have the patience to click ads all day.  I would rather read blogs and articles relevant to me.  But, for additional earning purposes, 10 minutes of my day to click ads is fine.   here are some sites I would consider.

-  Clixsense.com (payment is sent to you by check)
-  Neobux.com
-  Buxmatrix.com
-  Clicksia

Just to name a few.  I found some of these sites from another ad site, Sulit.com.ph.  Enter paid-to-click in the search box.  Some of these sites pay you through Alertpay while others thru Paypal.  better have 2 account.


PAID-TO-WRITE SITES:

For budding writers, these sites are for you.  these will definitely enhance your writing skills.

Associated content, Triond and E-how
These sites offer wide range of subjects so you can write whatever you like.  Minimum of 500 words per article.  These are great sites to master your writing skills.  Each articles are subject for approval.  No plagiarism.  It might take a while to publish your article in these sites.  Earnings are kind of slow.  Earnings depend on the number of visits your article gets.  So, unless you advertise your article, then you can get the earning you want.

About.com
If you're an expert in your field, you might want to consider writing in this site.  Most people go to this site for resources and references.  I dont think you'll earn in posting for this site but this will be a great exposure for you, your article and your expertise.  Writing Ethics apply.  (No plagiarism). 

Blogger
If you love writing but no place to post it, you could just make a blog.  you can earn by putting ads in your site.  Earnings depend on the number of clicks your ad gets.  You need to have a lot of traffic to get the desired clicks you want.  Be sure that your articles are original, so it gets on top of the once keywords are typed in search engines.


hope you get an idea of how to earn online.  You still need hard work, patience and lots of ideas. 

Happy earning!
