Search and Earn

Published by under making money

I know as a webmaster, I am always looking for ways to earn extra money. There are tons of offers out there that are nothing but scams and waste your time and sometimes money. I have a few sites that I use regularly and earn free gifts certificates.

One of the best ones I have found and it is real and free to join is Swag Bucks. My wife and i use them for all our searches and we earn swag bucks that can be redeemed for prizes or Online gift certificates. If you use it like you use any other search engine, you have a chance to receive bucks for those searches. We always turn ours in for Amazon GCs and we use them to buy cool stuff. We have earned a couple hundred so far this year by only doing what we do anyway.

It is totally free to join and if you refer friends, you earn up 100 swag bucks for their searches. Think about joining Swag Bucks and you can earn too.

Social Conversation Site

Published by under Blogging,Web Reviews

The following post is a sponsored review.

Blogging is tons of fun and it can be a great pastime. People create blogs for various reasons. Some create blogs as a business venture and to create an income. This is great and can create a nice part-time income. However, some people just want a blog to have fun and update friends and family or to socialize. That is where free blog sites come in the picture.

We all know about the most common ones like Blogger and WordPress which offer free blogs to users. However, many casual blogger do not realize that there are more options out there. Thoughts.com is one of those options. This site is pretty cool and offers many cool features to add fun and excitement to your blogging experience.

The first time I heard about this site, I thought it was just another free blog site. However, once I ventured into their community, I was surprised at the warm community feeling that it gives off. They allow video uploading, picture uploading, and unlimited bandwidth. This is great to have a free blog that allows these features without having to find a separate host for the pictures and videos. They even host your podcasts and have easy to integrate features to share all of them on your blog.

If you are a novice or a longtime blogger, there is something in this community to attract and keep you coming back. The add a-friend features almost gives it a Facebook like feel.

I suggest you visit thoughts.com and check out what they have to offer and be sure to take a tour to see some of the fine features. Get blogging within minutes and you will be hooked for life!

Finding Directories

Published by under Webmaster Resources

Every few weeks I take the time to update my directory lists. It is both a good resource for my readers and a way for directory owners to advertise their directories. If you are looking for a list of directories, here is the links to the Free Directories and the Paid Directories.

If you have a directory you would like to add to either list, feel free to comment on this thread and I will be happy to add you to my lists. Please specify rather the directory is free, paid, or requires a reciprocal link.

Should We Add a Directory?

Published by under General Blog Info

I am asking my readers if they could benefit from a directory added to our site. This would be a free directory and the only fee would be for featured links. The directory itself would be a sub domain of this blog but I would promote it separate from this blog.

I know there are thousands of directories already on the Internet so I am wondering of there is any need for another one. Will it add value to this blog? Will it benefit the readers?

Please leave a comment in support of a directory or stating that you do not think you and the blog could benefit from a directory.

Also, what is a fair price that I should charge for featured links?

Free Directories

Published by under Search Engine Optimization,Webmaster Resources

I have written before on SEO08 about the importance of submitting to free directories. These directories make up a majority of the back links that webmaster get for their site. Normally they are search engine friendly and you can place your site in a category where people looking for similar sites can look and find your site.

One way to list your websites and blogs quickly in directories is to write up several descriptions of your sites and than you just need to copy and paste one of them into the directory. Also make sure no matter what browser you are using, you use the function that saves your information for forms so that all you have to do is click to add all your personal information such as email, name , URL, and titles. I try to have at least four descriptions for each site so that all your listings are not exactly the same.

You also want to make sure to check your spelling and grammar. I recommend for your browser because it checks your spelling as you type and it underlines in read any spelling mistakes that you make. It is always much easier and more reliable than Internet Explorer.

I take every chance I get to list my blogs for free. I try to list my blogs in at least a few free directories everyday and recently I found a few good ones that I listed in. As I find more, I will list them here, right now, here is a few good ones to get you started:
