AGLOCO - a dud in the making

It seems everyone is is hyping AGLOCO these days, touting how much money they are going to make off of it. If you already signed up, don't go making any plans to spend your fortune just yet.
AGLOCO will fizzle out faster than you can say dot com.

This site is really just a paid to surf scheme. This has been done many times before. Basically you put a viewbar on your page that lets AGLOCO monitor your surfing habits and present you with ads a computer determines that you will be interested in viewing. The user gets a small share of the ad revenue generated. I've never seen this amount to more than about $15 a month, even if you are on the web 12 hours a day.

AGLOCO promises to pay you a portion of the ad revenue everyone you have referred generates and then from their referrals and so on. John Chow says he has 14,000 people signed up in his network. Note that the viewbar is still in beta testing so at this point in time no one is making any money.

Here's the problem. No one looks on the Internet for ads. I'm certainly not putting spyware on my computer so I can earn a few bucks a month while being annoyed by advertisements. I believe that everyone is signing other people up but nobody will actually activate the viewbar when it is released. www.Agloco.com

Get Paid to Ask Questions

Ever wondered what the best way to get tomato stains off a white shirt? Why not ask readers at FunAdvice.com. Not only will you get answers to your stain problem,you'll make a little money in the process.

FunAdvice is a Google Adsense revenue sharing site. After you register FunAdvice will display ads with under your adsense account on 40 percent of the page views to your questions. You probably won't get rich off of this, but spend thirty minutes writing good questions and you can make a few bucks a day.

I found that it takes a good day for the click throughs to start. I surmise this is how long it takes Google to index the question and responses and put the content correct ads on the page.

My best day on FunAdvice earned me $2.07. I've only posted about a dozen questions so that it isn't too bad a return on time. Asking questions based on popular keywords would probably up the number of clicks. Adding other users to your friends list will also increase traffic to your questions.

The one drawback to FunAdvice is that no promotional linking is allowed, so you can't drive people to your own blog.

The Adsense Code



The AdSense Code: What Google Never Told You About Making Money with AdSense

We've all heard stories about those adsense gurus who make tens of thousands of dollars a month, so it's discouraging when our own websites are only pulling $15-$20 a month. Now Joel Comm, a true Google guru, shares some his secrets to making "honey we're going to Disneyland" money with adsense.

I have several websites and blogs and in the first one I started applying Comm's secrets to my click thru rate has gone up 26 percent the first week. I've learned how to blend my ads into the site so it appears more like content than ads, which Comm points out that we trained ourselves to ignore when looking at a website.

The only negative to this book is that Comm is trying to upsell more products to the reader. Despite the somewhat high price for a book that makes liberal use of white space, it is well worth the money.

How to Make Money With Blogs

The Secret 4-Step Guide: Make Money Online Without A Website
by: Matt Rhodes

It is a common misconception that you must have a website in order to truly make money on the internet. Don't worry, it's not your fault - the "gurus" have tricked you into thinking that a website is required to make money, all while they laugh to the bank when you purchase web hosting and a domain through their affiliate links. It's time to separate yourself from the crowd and realize that you're being deceived.

If you want to establish yourself online, blogging is the way to do it. And, it's absolutely free. You can make $20, $50 or $100 every single day using a simple, free blog that takes less than half an hour to set up. But how do you make your money? It's a simple formula:

1.) Create your free blog and start posting about a topic you love. Baseball? Weight lifting? Hypnosis? Gardening? Virtually anything will do.

2.) Go to Clickbank.com and click "marketplace". Find a product related to your topic (they have a very large variety of products for any audience) and create a free affiliate account with them.

3.) Add your affilate links to your blog and promote the product you chose. Talk about it's qualities, review it, how much it's helped you, and so on. People eat up stories.

4.) Get traffic to your blog by posting articles to article directories with a link back to your blog.

That's it - that's all you do to make money online. I can personally guarantee you that if you post to your blog everyday for the next 60 days and write one article to submit to a few article directories per week, you'll be making a bare minimum $20 per day with hardly effort. $20 per day for 10 to 15 minutes of work is a great trade-off, wouldn't you say?

The best part about this process is that you can repeat it, over and over. Imagine if you had 10 blogs and made the bare minimum of $20 per day with each blog. That means you'd be getting more than $200 per day, for about 2 1/2 hours of work. Compare that to a job - 8+ hours a day, for a measly couple thousand bucks every couple of weeks. It's bull.

It's time for you to make a decision. Are you going to sit around and continue to ponder how to make money online, or are you finally going to bite the bullet and going to get started? The choice is yours...
