Social Spark

I have just signed up and had one of my blogs approved at:



This is a social community/pay per post site from IZEA the owners of PayPerPost. So far I have applied for a few blogging opportunities but there looks to be a queuing system if all possibilities have been taken.

Payments seem to be higher that PayPerPost for blogs without PR. As high as $27.50 if you have a blog fitting the correct topic and $12 for general every topic blogs.

Here's hoping it turns out to be as lucrative as PayPerPost where I have just had 2 more posts approved.

MySearchFunds - Downtime

I have just read the following email which has been sent from customer support at MySearchFunds:

Today on the 26th June around 9:00 AM UK time our service was down due to being attacked by a denial of service attack.

This is when someone sends a large amount of data at our servers which swamps the connection to our server and therefore other people cannot connect to the service.

This is a deliberate and criminal attack to bring the service down which we will be reporting to the appropriate authorities.

We are being targeted due to the large growth and the success of the service we provide you.

We are working on tracking who is attacking us but until we can solve this problem the service may be down for a few hours.

If you could please pass this information onto anyone else that you know that uses are service then we would appreciate this.

We will be releasing a formal announcement with more information about this problem as soon as it has been solved.

Thanks for using our service and please tell your friends!

Regards

Julie

It looks as though someone is unhappy with their service. I hope this gets sorted soon so I can start searching again and this time get paid for it!

MySearchFunds Payout with Proof

Well the day finally arrived yesterday. I checked my paypal account and found a $70+ payment from MySearchFunds. When I first joined up I was rather skeptical as I managed to tot up a couple of dollars in the first day with no real hard work and after spending an hour or two on the internet researching the service I didn't really find any hard proof of people being paid. That's why I've made this post and here is my proof a screen capture form my paypal account:



The service really does pay you to search, the results are great and provided from Yahoo! and its out performed all the other MMO methods I've used.

If you haven't already I suggest you sign up, just visit the link here and fill in the form - Sign up at MySearchFunds

No opportunites then 2 come along at once!

Well I'd just wrote about my third post on how it was getting harder and harder to find opportunities for bloggers and then pay per post offered me two at the same time. I worked hard and managed to complete both posts. The great this is they were my 9th and 10th posts. If everything goes to plan once those posts are approved I will be able to add more blogs to account and hopefully start earning a little more.

Just a quick note to say that MySearchFunds (aka My HomepageFriends) still have not made payment for June so here's hoping that my time put into this method has not been wasted and they will in fact pay out over the weekend.

Fingers crossed.

Bux.to payout pending!

I recently passed the minimum payout at Bux.to. They minimum payout is $10 and I decided at $15 to cash out to my Alert Pay account. I recieved an email saying my payment was pending processing. After not having heard anything in the past week I decided to have a quick search on the net as to how long this could take.

It appears that they are very slow at paying out and are only processing orders from the end of January at the moment. It looks like i'll have to sit tight and might get paid before Christmas. I have also just hit the $20+ mark but only 1 payout can be dealt with at anyone time so it looks as though it will be left on the back burner until I see payment in my account.

Whilst I was looking I came across another program which works on a similar basis, but this one pays out at $10, via paypal and between 24 and 48 hours after requesting payout. The site is:

Earnings Update

Following my recent post updating the situation with MySearchFunds, who have now been rebranded HomePage Friends. I am still awaiting a payment for the searches I have carried out. I have heard mixed reviews of the service but still believe that they will make the payout due. So far these are my stats since joining up:

My Earnings
March 2008 348 searches £8.01 earned
April 2008 1311 searches £27.81 earned
May 2008 773 searches £15.85 earned
June 2008 479 searches £10.56 earned
Total 2911 searches £62.23 earned

With a bit of luck this will be one of the best money making tools on the internet.

Progress is slowing!

Well it appears that most of the PR0 posting opportunities have dried up good and proper at pay per post, today there are 3 opportunities I am keeping and eye on but all seem to have been taken already.

I've decided that I much prefer their system to the ones at buyblogreviews and sponsored reviews. This is mainly because 99% of the time on these sites once you make an offer for an opportunity you don't hear anything back at all. A simple not interested would make the service a lot better to the bloggers bidding for opportunities.

I guess I should get back to working on increasing traffic and backlinks in the hope of page rank in the next update.

Is anyone else finding it hard going at the moment?

MySearchFunds - Update

I'm still eagerly awaiting the annoucement that mysearchfunds are payout out for the month ending April 2008. I should be due well over the £20 pay out limit and if I do get paid it will be the best method for earning online so far.

MySearchFunds has just been rebranded too, the site is now Homepage Friends but the service is still the same but a deal has been completed so searches are now completed through Yahoo.

Bux.to payout reached

I've been using the service over at Bux.to that I joined back in April, I mentioned what the service is about here.

Well I've just reached $15 and have requested a payout. It looks as if this isn't instant as I received an email saying that it would be processed as soon as possible.

Here's hoping that it doesn't take too long. This will also give me the opportunity to review the Alert Pay system that was required for the initial sign up at Bux.to.

So do you want to earn some cash by viewing web sites? Why not give this service a go, click the image below to sign up:

Opportunities drying up!

Having only been blogging since February I'm not sure if this is the norm or not but a lot of opportunities seem to have been drying up.

I've been paid out all I've earned from Pay Per Post and have not seen an open opportunity to take in the last month. I've also signed up and am not a member at:

Buy Blog Reviews
Smorty
Sponsored Reviews
Blogitive

All of which have not given me an a post in the last month. It could be something to do with a lack of advertisers but more likely it could be to do with most opportunities are only available to blogs with PR.

Here's hoping that Google will bless at least one of my blogs with some PR in the next update, rumoured to be around the end of July.

How is everyone else finding paid blog posting at the minute?
