Moola! Moola! Moola!

Moola! This is a great site, and incredibly addicting. This site is invite only right now and I have a limited number of invitations, so sign up as fast as you can by clicking this link.

So what is Moola? It is basically a type of gambling site but you don't actually use your money, you use the money from advertisers and bet on games and try to win your own money. The idea is simple, start with a penny and double it. Repeat. So what happens if you do this 30 times? You get $10,000,000! Yep, that's ten million dollars! Of course this is much easier said than done because everyone else you are betting against is also trying to reach the same goal. However, it is so much fun trying to get there. But you don't have to reach $10 million so cash out, you can cash out when you feel comfortable with your winnings. I totally recommend trying this site out, it is so much fun.

Stay tuned for my first month earnings from the internet tomorrow!

TreasureTrooper, CashLagoon, DealBarbiePays and CashCrate

So this post is about 4 websites: TreasureTrooper, CashLagoon, DealBarbiePays and CashCrate. All of these have the same idea, click some links and make some money for doing it. This isn't hard at all, and it works very well. They show you some links and how much each one is worth if you complete it. Right now my favorite site is TreasureTrooper, but this keeps changing. If you are trying to make a quick buck or two, this is the best way to do it in a few minutes. If you are trying to make literally a buck or two, CashLagoon is the best site because there is no minumum to reach in order for them to send you money.

TreasureTrooper is the best, in my opinion, because it is fun! They have cool games that you can play to try and win more money and my offers seem to go through within 15 minutes of completing it. Some of the games are like the pearl game that you play after every offer you complete. When you get 8 pearls, you can buy two unreffered members and use them as your referrals! This is great because you get 20% of their earnings and if they refer some people, you get 5% of those earnings. Aside from winning money, you can also do offers that give coins that you can redeem for Xbox360 and giftcards and such. Like an Xbox360 is only 200 coins, and they are not that hard to get.

A little eHow side note - - Go visit The eHow Experience, another blog about a guy writing on eHow for the same reason as me.

P.S. - Come back on the first of May to see my results from April!

Final Exams, Projects, and Bukisa!

I've been getting hit hard with work over the last week and this should continue for the next two weeks because finals week starts on the 27th. Not my favorite week. Anyway, eHow is going well so are the sports betting websites. I have heard of some people doing quite well on a site called Bukisa. It's a very odd sounding name but it looks like it could be a lot of fun. I still have a lot to learn about it, but it sounds similar to the eHow deal. There is something called the "Bukisa Index"... I don't know what it is yet, but I will let you know as soon as I figure it out. So my plan is to write 2 articles a day while keeping up with my 3 article a day plan with eHow, so 5 articles a day. Of course this might not actually happen for another two weeks because I am swamped with studying and projects. So go ahead and join me on Bukisa if you are already trying to do the whole make money online thing.

Cheers,
DA

P.S. - I am 6 articles behind on eHow :( ... I'll get cracking on those as soon as I find free time and I'll post the new ones up soon, I just need free time!

Easy Google Profit... is it a Scam?

I have probably found myself on this website 100 times, it's called "Easy Google Profit" and I think it has other names like "Google Goldmine" and pretty much any other name you could think of with the word Google connected to a synonym of money. My question is, are these scams? And has anyone ever tried it? I would love to hear stories about people using these and what it was exactly, I'm 90% sure this has to be a scam... but maybe it's not.

I'm Running Out of Ideas!!!

I need to find more sites to use for my experiment! Please comment on your ideas and successes you have had with other sites and producing passive income. I have been looking into designing an iPhone app but I'm a little low on money (kind of why I made the experiment in the first place..), it turns out that I need a Mac to write an app and I have a PC. So I have added a "donate" button on the right side of the page, even a nickel would be much appreciated. I have a few ideas for some apps and I have heard of people making quite a bit of money. Go to this site and read up on the developer for iFart, absolutely amazing!

I am going to join a website called FreeSportsBet.com (Thanks Geoff!) and try to earn some income there. Here are the eHow articles for the day:

How to Ask Google a Question
How to Use the Flight Simulator in Google Earth
How to Find Google Easter Eggs

Have a great day!

Day 5: CentSports!

Ok I know, betting is not exactly passive income, but this site sounds fun and I can make a couple dimes from it. If you are unfamiliar with how CentSports.com (clicking that link means I referred you, thank you if you decide to use me as a reference) works, you should check it out because it is a lot of fun and there is no risk to lose any of your money. So how do you have no risk of losing money when you are betting on sport games? The way it works is you sign up and you get $0.10 to start betting on games. Everything is paid for by advertisers on the website, so if you lose those ten cents then you get another ten cents back and you can't bet more than you have so you can't lose any of your money. It's a great and innovative idea! So I will start betting on games and post my winnings on my monthly report.

Yes I did say monthly report, I have recently decided to start a monthly report :). So at the end of the month I will post my earnings from each site and my goal for the next month on a cool looking chart. Even though we are half way through this month, I will go ahead and say my goal for this month is $15.00. A very attainable goal considering I am at about $7.50... So half way there!

Just a quick report from my eHow articles... turns out it was a fluke. I guess I had a good day on my first day making a buck-O-one. I have read a lot about other people's experiences and found out it takes a long time for an article to start making money, it actually seems like I'm doing better than most people did when they started up their eHow business. Most people claim it takes at least a week for an article to make money, so HA! I'm a little bit ahead of the game, about $1.55 ahead of the game apparently. Here are the eHow articles of the day:

How to Convert an Adobe PDF to JPEG
How to Make Pie Charts in Word
How to Convert a File to PDF Format

Cheers,

Day 4: Easter and SurveySpot

So I took a day off from the blog but I still did my three eHow articles for both days. I ended up spending Easter with a bunch of college friends and didn't have time to write in the blog. Anyway, today's site I joined was SurveySpot. From what I can tell, this site seems to be similar to Survey Saavy and I have read about a few people that have ended up making a decent amount of money of the site. I hope I have the same luck and I will report back on how lucky I get from the site.

Survey Savvy seems to be sending me about one survey per day, a little less than I was hoping but better than nothing. I have gotten a survey worth $3 and a survey worth $20! The only problem is I didn't qualify for the $20 survey. I'm starting to question the legitimacy of Survey Savvy because I took the survey for about 6 or 7 minutes before it decided that I wasn't the right man for the job... sounds kind of like a scam, huh? I was asked a bunch of questions about the amount of tv's I have, what movie sites a subscribe to, and my service providers before it shut me down. However, I managed to be eligible for the $3 survey but it says it could take 6-8 weeks before I get credited with the money. I guess I will just have to wait.

So I will post 6 articles from eHow because I had to make up for yesterday... so far I am on target for my 3 a day eHow plan! Here are the 6:

• How to Read Roman Numerals
• How to Write Roman Numerals
• How to Play Blackjack
• How to Count Cards
• How to Search Rapidshare, Megaupload, Depositfiles and More
• How to Play the Drinking Game Gonzo

By the way, I already joined the website for tomorrow but I won't say what it is until tomorrow's post!

Day 2: Survey Savvy and my results from day 1

Today I decided to join Survey Savvy, a website that pays you to do surveys. The way it works is they send surveys your way and you get paid between $2 and $20. Well this is what they claim. I have read up on people joining this site and found some people that made quite a bit of money and other people that haven't made a dime. We will see how many articles they send my way and how much they are worth.

Let's change this over to the results! Things are starting to look good, a lot better than I had previously anticipated. My results from AdSense are:


Yep, that's $2.93! I don't know who decided to start clicking on the ads, but I really appreciate your help! Now for my eHow articles that I posted yesterday, here are the results from those:


That's another $1.01 added to my bank account! As I said in the last article, many people said it took a long time for them to make their first dollar off eHow. I don't know if it was a fluke, but I'm happy with a fluke. Assuming this wasn't a fluke, I can make about a buck a day off three articles. by this logic, after 10 days I will have 30 articles as long as I go by my eHow plan and if I have 30 articles I can make $10 per day or about $300 per month! Let's hope this wasn't a fluke and I can continue this plan. I guess you can see the three articles I published from the picture above (and the 2 other articles I am currently working on), but here are the links to the 3 eHow articles of the day:

• How to Save Money
• How to Grab Life by the Horns
• How to Decide Between Playstation 3 and Xbox 360

Day 1: eHow and AdSense

Welcome!

So this is day 1, this is how I'm going to try and start my passive income experiment. Actually, it started last night with Google AdSense. This nice little tool places ads on your website and pays you depending on how many clicks you get. Google seems to do most of the work for you by posting related ads to reach the demographic of said advertisement. As people see something that interests them, they click it and google adds some cash to your AdSense account. Pretty neat.

Besides using AdSense, my first site that I will use to begin my experiment is eHow. If you are unfamiliar with this site, I recommend checking it out. It is full of great articles on "How to..." do almost anything you want to know. If you don't see what you are looking for, you can then request that someone write about how to do whatever it is you want to do. So for this website, my goal is to write three articles a day. That is simple enough. I figure if I were to do this for a year, I will reach 1068 articles (or 1071 articles if it is a leap year). I have done research and read stories of people making several hundred dollars a month, however I heard the first dollar takes a few months to accumulate so I will just have to wait patiently. I actually started a membership last night and got my 3 articles for today done with! I'll post my three articles everyday and report how they are doing. Here are the links to the three articles for today:

• How To No Be Bored on the Internet
• How To Make a Beer Pong Table Out of Bottle Caps
• How to Survive a Plane Crash

Have fun reading these and I will talk to you tomorrow with my next three articles and my next idea for this experiment. Let me know if you have any ideas or questions

My Internet Business Idea

Hey Everyone!

So with our current economic situation in the United States, many people know it is very hard to get a job. It's brutal. I'm proposing my online business experiment which involves trying to make a decent amount of money through online passive income. What is passive income? Well it is defined as receiving an income on a regular basis by doing little or no work. Sounds fantastic, right? Hell yea it does! So I am devising an experiment where I try and make $1000.00 a month. That's it. By making this money, I can pay for my groceries and apartment rent while I go to school.

Currently, I'm a mechanical engineering student at Clemson University. I love it at Clemson and I am so glad I decided to come to this excellent school. The semester is coming to an end now and it is time to start looking for a job. Well this is much easier said than done. I won't give up on finding an easy job doing some sort of mindless job where I can make 7 bucks an hour, but if I can add an extra thousand dollars a month to my income, I can pay off some bills and such.

Here is my plan as of right now: I have done some research and found there are several sites where you can make money on the internet. All you have to do is write about something or take a few surveys. As of today, I have looked at joining a few websites. Over the next few days, I will write down the websites I have decided to join and my plan for each one.
