Ways For Teens To Make Money – Blogging

One of the ways for teens to make money is through blogging. Yes, that’s right. Just by mumbling about your favourite topics can give you money, sometimes more than an adult make everyday. If you feel that it’s a difficult thing to do, don’t, coz it’s not. Let’s face it, as a teen, you love to share everything with your friends or tell the world what you’ve been up to lately. You’ve got a diary that keeps all your secret and blogging is just like writing in a diary, except this is for the world to know. You can write and talk about anything that interests you, which you would have done with your friends anyway. So blogging is really a great way for teens to make money.

How Teens Can Make Money From Blogging

Teens can make money from blogging in many different ways. The most obvious one is by using Google Adsense. Write about something that you like; games, gadgets, myspace, friendster, whatever. Google Adsense will pick up relevant keywords from your blog and display the corresponding ads. Whenever someone clicks on the ads, you’ll get the commission. So make sure your blog is interesting and receive huge amount of targeted and organic traffic day in day out for a profitable conversion. I wrote about this before in this post about Neopets Cheats site. Who knows you’re gonna be the next succesful Adsense income earner.

Ways for Teens to Make Money – Direct Ads

If you don’t fancy using Adsense, you can try dealing with different advertisers for them to put their ads on your blog. In return, you’ll be paid, usually monthly. This is easy if your blog is very popular (sometimes popularity is measured by Alexa ranking). Advertisers need to get as much exposure as possible. They need people to know that they exist. That’s why they will look for popular websites/blogs to promote their own websites/blogs. If your blog is a well known and established one, you can even demand a higher payout from them. What a great way to make money from doing nothing.

Other ways for teens to make money from their own blogs are affiliate marketing and doing paid reviews. By promoting certain products from your affiliates, you can potentially be paid a huge sum of commission money, if somebody buys that product. So you don’t need to have your own product to make money. Find something that relates to your blog in Commission Junction or Clickbank and promote it in your blog. If you like to write reviews, you should know that you can also get paid for that. Companies such as Smorty and IZEA provide that service, and you can register for free without having to pay anything. Instead you’re the one who’s going to get paid.

If you’re finding ways for teens to make money, then blogging should be included in your to-do list. It’s simple to start and the revenue is worth all the effort. Have fun blogging!

Make Extra Money Online Using Paypal – Updated

It seems like people are still searching for ways to make extra money using paypal. From my research, the number of searches increases, much more than make money online. It must be because of the chain email which I mentioned in my previous post about make money using paypal. Now I’m not saying that this scheme doesn’t work, what I’m questioning is the way it works. In the email, it even says that paypal verified this scheme as legal. I don’t know whether that statement is a genuine paypal statement. I doubt it though. There’s a hint of pyramid scheme involve in this type of make money online technique, and paypal hates pyramid scheme. Let me show you how this make money using paypal scheme really looks like a pyramid one

You start off by giving $1 to six people whose emails are listed on the chain email that you got. Then what you do is, you replace one of the email with yours, and send the same email to hundreds of newsgroup, mailing list, forums, friends, relatives and practically everyone who’s using the Net. So assuming everybody that gets your email really follows the instruction and decides to give you (and the rest in the email list) $1, we’re talking about thousands of dollars from just one level of the cycle.

That doesn’t stop there. If each of your 1st level ‘referrals’ decided to repeat the process again, you’ll get thousands more. And this process will just repeat itself for 6 levels of referrals. So you can imagine how much money can be accumulated from one level to another, and it just keeps growing as long as your ‘referrals’ keep giving $1 to you and persuade others to do the same. $1 might look nothing, but if 10,000 people are giving it to you for free, would you not do it?

As many other pyramid scheme, it only works if your ‘referrals’ are generously doing all the job for you while you’re sitting at home doing nothing except counting all the money that’s coming in. So if you want to make money using paypal this way, which I don’t recommend, you’re gonna make sure that everybody’s gonna bite your bait. Well, I’m not into this scheme at all. I hate pyramid scheme and I don’t want to promote it anyway. If the chain mail of ‘make money using paypal’ comes into my inbox, I’ll just delete it and end the chain. Tough luck for those who tried to lure me into giving them even $6 :D

Why don’t you lot get into proper business online? Make money using paypal by setting up an online store and sell your products the normal way. You’ll have much fun this way. Trust me, I’ve sold quite a few stuff online and I couldn’t be happier doing it. Either that or involve in selling affiliate products and niche blogging. Whatever make money scheme you want to do, just make sure it’s free from this wishy washy stuff, ya?

Make Money Using Paypal – Scam or Not?

If you’ve done niche blogging for quite a while and done your research, you might’ve noticed that among the most profitable keywords nowadays are make money, make money online and make money from home. However, I found out recently while searching for long tailed keywords under ‘make money’ category, the most searched keyword is make money using paypal. Try and do it yourself using the seo book keyword suggestion tool and type in ‘make money’. You will see that make money using paypal is top on the list with Google daily estimate of 920 searches.

When I did a little research on this issue, it turned out that there is a chain letter (possible scam?) circling around the net, promoting a $6 make money using paypal scheme. It claims that the scheme even appeared in Oprah. Now I don’t watch Oprah so I don’t really know if this is true or not. Well here is the excerpt of the email so you can judge it yourself
