Information on Revenue Sharing & A Few Top Sites.

Revenue sharing sites allow you to earn money due to Google advertising that is placed on the site. The site then shares it's revenues with those that post on the site. At some sites, you can also earn additional money by referring friends - If they become members of the site and post good content also.

Just like it used to be here, on Aidpage, those that made good posts, gave information or offered advice received a portion of the revenues that Aidpage got from the Google Adsense program. If they chose to be in the sharing program and had given the Aidpage team their Adsense code. Those that didn't opt in didn't get a share of the revenues.

But due to some issues, (caused by transparent backgrounds & Google ads not being shown properly) on a few homepages, Aidpage almost lost it's Adsense revenue. This money is important to Aidpage so it can be here. So they've discontinued the member revenue sharing program on here, this week.

Because some members here were negatively impacted by this decision. Even though they have the rignt to protect their own earnings, I felt that I needed to reach out to those effected the most. Especially those that count on the extra money they earn each month here.

I've decided to offer a listing of other revenue sharing sites that I've researched. I've picked out those I think are the best, but you can look for more sites if you like. This is just a list to get you started.

Bukisa.com
Burkisa allows you to earn money on the articles you write, but also allows you to earn money on those that you refer to them as well. Buksa has a two tiered system where you can make money from the articles that the people you refer write. Plus you making money on the articles from all the people that they refer too!

All writers are paid the same amount. All writers on Bukisa are paid according to an index. If the index is 3.95 each writer will get $3.95 for every 1000 views. But you don't need to get that many views on an article to be paid. You can make a little bit from each article you write. You are paid through Paypal when your earnings reach $50.

Currently, as of today, the index is at 4 - but you'll have to check the site. The index changes as the ranking of the site increases.

Bukisa is going to be adding a category for photos soon. This will offer the same opportunity for revenue as articles. It will give two opportunities to earn some money. To get more information and become a member at Bukisa.


Xomba
Xomba is another excellent revenue sharing site with a referral program. You earn ten percent of the revenue from any writer that you refer. You both still get the same amount, which is 50% earned revenue from Google Adsense ads on the site.

You need to have an Adsense acccount so you can enter your code on the Xomba site. If you don't have one, you can sign up for Adsense right on the Xomba site.

Xomba has only two types of submitions - articles of substance called Xombytes and smaller ones which describe a web page or site, called Xomblurbs. You can earn the same off either one. For those that you refer, you earn an extra ten percent off of whatever they post.

The Home page displays the higher ranking articles, which in turn tends to earn them more money since they are often viewed more. They share 60% of advertising revenue with users. To find out more check out the Xomba website.


Hubpages 
Hubpages is one of the top ten Adsense revenue sharing sites. It's currently one of the top 250 most visited sites on the web. The site has a good page rank and an active community of members that rate and comment on each other's articles.

In addition to sharing Adsense revenue they share Amazon Associates, Ebay and Kontera income from the articles you write. This multi pronged approach makes the site a real winner with writers seeking to build a stream on income from articles. They share 60% of advertising revenue with users.
 
Because it is a hub and not a blog, you can write a hub on any topic without worrying if it relates to anything you’ve written previously or anything that you plan to write in the future.  Write just one hub or write hundreds of hubs.  It’s up to you.To find out more go to the sites home page.


The Info Mine
In addition to 80% revenue from your articles you can place your own Amazon Associates links in the text of your article, as long as the article does not read like an advertisement.

If you just want to participate, they share 100% of Amazon Associates revenue sharing you don't even have to have an Adsense account. You can write about almost any subject, such as how - to articles, stories, travel blogs, etc. There's more information on their website to check out.


eHow 
For those that love to write how-to articles this is the best choice to make some money. Cook, decorate, fix, plan, garden, budget or update your wardrobe…that’s just the beginning of the kind of advice and inspiration you can find at eHow.

The more articles you write, the more your income will grow. They pay you monthly, directly to your PayPal account after you make $10. Your payments are directly linked to how much traffic your article receives, as well as the quality of the content. To find out more and become a member, visit the eHow website.


Squidoo  
Squidoo is all about lenses. What's a lense? Lenses are pages, kind of like flyers or signposts or overview articles, that gather everything you know about your topic of interest--and snap it all into focus. Like the lens of a camera, it's your perspective on something.

You could make a Me lens about yourself! Or a lens about your blog, website or social network homepage to help get more traffic to it. How about a lens for your eBay store or CafePress shop. Have a Hobby? Make a lens about it! Whatever you are interested in or have a passion for, you can make a Lens for!

Squidoo puts ads on lenses, plus you have the ability to recommend products via affiliate programs with Amazon, eBay, CafePress and others. The revenue that the company receives is split 50/50 - which you can have paid out in cash via PayPal or donate to charity.

Many earn more than $1,000 a year from Squidoo. Some have made $10,000. Others are just as happy with $40 or $4. It's your choice how you get your money for your contributions to the site. To find out more about Squidoo, go to their website.


Helium
Helium is a good place to start writing. They have a good community with articles covering many different topics. Other members also rate your articles and the community is fairly large. You can even publish your article on other sites, like Bukisa.

You get paid and keep the copyright of your article. But there is an option to sell your articles directly to Helium for exclusive rights. They pay $2-$15 depending on topic.

On the Marketplace you can directly sell articles for magazine publishers who can pay from $20-$200 per article.

Helium also has writing contests. There are usually around 10 active contests running for 2 weeks each. The top 3 ranked authors win $50, $30 and $10 respectively. If you want to check out more on Helium, visit the website.


There are many more out sites out there and many different ways to share revenue with a website. Try to join more than one so that you can get multiple income streams to guard against one not earning as much or maybe not being there anymore. Here are a few others to look at:

http://www.oondi.com/
Why should anyone else reap the benefits of your labor? When you submit your work to oondi, you get 100% of the advertisement profits.

http://www.digitaljournal.com/
Join one of the most active news sites on the Internet! Share your thoughts, vote on newsworthy articles, engage in debates and even get paid to report news as a citizen journalist.

http://www.mytripbook.com/
Share your experiences from your own travel diary- reviews, blogs, photos and videos- and map your past and future trips. Members who sign up as a travel guide can share in the advertising revenues generated from their guide page.

http://www.newsvine.com/
The Newsvine community loves investigative reporting, opinion pieces, and just about everything else considered newsworthy and in good taste. Newsvine also sells advertising around all content on the site and returns 90% of the advertising revenue from your content right back to you.

http://www.senserely.com/
As soon as you register, this basically becomes your website, with your AdSense blocks displayed next to your content, and you'll be able to write articles, reviews, and stories about your knowledge and experience on any topic you feel confortable with, as well as read, ask questions, and exchange information with others.


I hope that this information is of use and I wish everyone luck with any new venture they begin. Keep moving forward...

Chance to get $100.00, this is ligit not a scam I know many that have done it

Ok ladies! Heres a chance to get $100.00! Heres a copy of the email I received. And as for you naysayers, the company has an a+ rating with the better business burea in Denver.
They are asking if you (or anyone that you are a caretaker for) receive prescription benifits under  Medicare part d.
So give it a try. A hundred bucks would certainly come in handy for Christmas (or anytime)

We are conducting a research study regarding prescription drug benefits.  The study will take place over the telephone sometime in the next few weeks and all qualified participants will receive $100 as a thank you for their time.
To see if you qualify for this study, please take 1-2 minutes and answer the questions on the link below. If you’re qualified, we will call you back to go through the remaining questions and session information.

Making Money With Twitter

Hi Everyone....

To keep up with the Internet, I have become a Twitterer.... I wanted to see if there was a possibility of making money with this.  It is completely FREE to sign up, then you just start Tweeting. 

To see how this works, check out my profile at:

http://twitter.com/petskers

Your profile page acts similiar to a blog page.  The only restriction is the 140 character limit on what you can say at one time.  So you have to make your words count.  But it is interesting how this works.

I am starting to make some money from my Tweets.  So hopefully it will be another stream of income.  

I have been exhausting myself looking for online money and I believe this is a viable one.  The only thing with it, is you need to be persistant with it.  And the key is to getting followers.  The more followers you have, the more your message will be seen.  Right now I have almost 1,300 followers, so my affiliate programs are going out to those 1,300 people.  There is a lot of different ways to make money with this.  

Just an idea for those who are looking for extra cash.

If you need more information about it, let me know.

How to Save Money No Matter What

Money is a tool that we use in our society to trade for goods or service. Money can be found in all shapes and sizes. It is easy to save one dollar, as it is to save one million dollars. But what gets you there is how you see money.

If money is looked as a need, then little money will produce. If you see money as a tool, you will get a lot of it. Money can only been seen through the eyes of the believer and the more you believe, the more you will get.

When you get money, keep in mind that it’s a tool to help trade for goods or service in our society. Don’t let it not become a hot hands issue when you get it. That means that as soon as you get it, you have to spend it. Why do that? We all go into a spending habit as soon as we get it because our mind is a powerful tool and it will tell you what you have to do in the now. So you naturally you will listen to it.  

But it’s only a tool and you must you use it that way. As much as a car, garden hose, or a kitchen sink. You must treat it that way. You must understand it that way. When you do, you will see the good that it can do for you and your family.  

Here are some tips that will help you save money or what you can do to get money to save it. Yes you can do it because you can get it.

  1. I’m sure you have tons of things in your home or apartment that is just sitting around or maybe you haven’t used it in more than 1 year or 2 years. Sale it, you will not miss it, so sale it and save that money.
  2. We all know more than what we think we know and we can sales those services. So what if you are a school teacher or a baker or a banker, I bet you can baby sit or take care of elderly or take care of dogs. What about work in a kitchen or become a bellhop. I know you can do it. Save that money.
  3. Turn in all the change that you have. Go through your car, house or jar. Collect it and exchange it and save that money.
  4. If you have a car that you are not using or a large ticket item. Sale it and save that money.
  5. Get a part-time job. It does not matter where the part-time job is. Whither it’s Starbucks or Target. Take that money and save it.
  6. The paycheck that you earn, not matter how big or small. Always, always take at least $1.00 each pay period and save it. Let me tell you, it will add up. Put that money in a jar or a can. There are some saving accounts around the country that will allow you to open a saving account for $1.00.
  7. Every time you go out and eat, if you have to do this. When you pay cash, whatever the change is, save it. Whatever it is, 50 cents or $2.00. Save it.
  8. Sale CD, or DVD that you no longer watch or listen to and sale it. Save that money.
  9. Cut lawns in the neighborhood. It’s not only for kids; adults do it all the time. They are more dependable in doing the job. Take that money from there and save it.
  10. Drive a person from your neighborhood to work that works in your area. Put a little ad in craigslist or create an ad flyer in your local grocery story. Charge for gas money and save it.
  11. Take someone grocery shopping. Such as a disable person or an elderly person. Something that can be helpful and charge a small fee. Save it.
  12. Sale aluminum cans and glass bottles and newspapers. Sale it and save the money.
  13. Teach people a trade or how to fix something, tell them you will charge them a small fee and take that money and save it.
  14. Create a flyer, and envelope design or help write a letter. Charge a small fee and save it.

Now that you see some ideas that will help you earn extra cash for saving money. Again, we have to look at tasks and money differently. The reason the rich get rich is because they do these task and sale services for cash. Everything they do and touch has a price tag to it. That is why they are rich. The rich are rich because they save money. The don't over spend. They make sure that they have the cash for it. 

Keep in mind because of the different way of thinking that you are starting to do on money. You will start seeing where you can get it and it will come to you, in bundles. Once you realize that it's there for you. 

But remember that you must not abuse money because money will abuse you.

I'm just like anyone else, struggling to get by.  My credit is shot, bill collectors calling me every few minutes, I'm in danger of losing my house.  I have nothing left to lose by trying this program and I don't really think anyone else has either.  The risk is so low and the potential is so great.  I am a man of faith and I've made so many prayers, but nothing ever changed.  I think this might change everything.  Maybe this is the answer to all those prayers.  If not I'm only out $6 and  little time.
