In one of my previous article I mentioned PTC(Paid Per Click) programs as one of the ways to earn money online. What is really a PTC? It is a program wherein the PTC program member click a website for a certain amount of time and he/she will be credited for that. The member can get $0.01-$0.015 per click depending on the length of time to view the website. MOst of the website that the member click pays the PTC website more that $.01, this is program suitable for thos website which are starting and needs some traffic. There are few new PTC sites that we can choose from, and here are some of it:

WOW!! Didn't you said that to youself? Billions of dollars!! They earn that in a year, and they are still going strong, we must take a step to replicate what they are doing. Replicate?? Am I dreaming?? Yes I am because it is free to dream for such kind of income but if we really can't achieve it at least can still aim at earning enough money to support our needs like a hundred or thousand of dollars a month. To get this kind of revenue, hard work and patience must first be put into action with our website. Keep on striving WEBMASTERS and someday you shall get there.

SOI keep on bloggin,learning and enjoy what you do aside from enjoying the revenue it brings.
This past few weeks I was trying to found out ways on how to earn from my blog/website, I searched from ebooks to forums,discussion boards and reading articles from other blogs. Then I listed all the information that I got so that I can apply it to my website/blog and also to share it with you who came here to learn new things about earning through the use of information in the internet.
There several methods on how to earn money using the website/blog. Here are some of it:
1. Pay-Per-Click(PPC) is one of the most common way for a website earn money. This method basically means you sign up for a certain PPC program then you put some snippet into your wbesite. This snippets will display the corresponding ads into your website which fits the topic/niche your website have. In this method your earnings will be affected by the traffic brought to your website and most importantly with the CTR(Click Through Rate) and the CPC (Cost Per Click). CTR is the rate of how many times your ads will be clicked by your website visitor and the CPC is the price of the ads displayed on the website for instance the ads for keyword diamonds,insurance,auto insurance and others have higher CPC compared to other keywords about technology some CPC may ranged from couple of cents to couple of dollars. The CTR is also affected with the source of traffic, if the source of trafic is Organic(traffic coming from search engine) has higher tendency that the visitor will cick on the ads while visitors coming from social media will tend to ignore the ads.
There are the most common PPC network:
*Google AdSense
*Yahoo Publisher Network

*AdBrite
*ABC Search
*BidVertiser
*Clicksor
*Qads
*PeakClick
*DoubleClick
*RevenuePilot
*Search Feed

*Miva MC
2. Banner Advertising
This is another way to monetize your website. Selling the adspace proves to be a lucrative way to earn using the website because it will cut out the middleman commissions and to determine your own rates. The most popular banner formats on the web are the 728×90 leaderboard, the 120×600 skyscraper, the 300×250 rectangle and the 125×125 button.
There are the most common Banner Avertising Network:
*AdEngage

*BannerBoxes
3.Text Link Advertisements
One can sell text links directly through his website or use specialized networks to automate the process.
These are some of the networks:
* Text-Link-Ads
* DigitalPoint Link Sales Forum
* Text-Link-Brokers
* TNX
* LinkWorth
*Live Customer
*LinkAdage
*Direct-Link-Ads

*AdSter
*Vibrant Media

*YzMedia
4. CPM Advertising Networks
CPM advertising networks is like PPC networks, except that the website owner gets paid according to the number of impressions that the ads displayed on your site will generate. CPM (Cost per Mille) is the cost for every one thousand impressions.
A blog/website that generates 100,000 page impressions monthly displaying an advertising banner that has a cost $1 per 1 CPM, therefore, will earn $100 monthly.
The rate for CPM varies for each networks and there are also various things that affect it's rate such as the positioning and size of the ads. The better the position for it to be on your website the higher the rate and if the ads are bigger it will also genrate bigger revenue.
List of popular CPM advertising networks:
* Casale Media
* Burst Media
* Value Click
* Advertising.com
* Tribal Fusion
* Right Media
5. Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is a very popular way to earn in the internet. This system uses a commission-per-sale way of earning. A merchant let the website (the affiliate website) sell directly or indirectly its products and services, in exchange for a commission. This type of advertising is also called CPA (cost per action) or CPL (cost per lead) based.
Affiliates can send potential customers to the merchant using several tools, from banners to text links and product reviews. The drawback for this is that if the visitor doesn't buy anything you'll get nothing even though you have a high traffic it doesn't guarantee that you will earn.
In order to find suitable affiliate programs you can turn to individual companies and publishers like Dreamhost and SEOBook, or join affiliate marketplaces and networks.
There are among the affiliate marketplaces and networks:
* Commission Junction
* ClickBank
* Azoogle Ads
* Link Share
*Azoogle Ads
*Amazon
6. Sponsored Reviews
PayPerPost pioneered this method. You can write articles on a topic required by the advertisers containing some keywords or link that benefits the advertisers and the through this you will be paid.
List of sponsored reviews and paid blogging networks:
* PayPerPost
* Sponsored Reviews
* ReviewMe
* BlogVertise
* Smorty
7. Job Boards
In order to create an active and profitable job board you need first to have a blog focused on a specific niche, and a decent amount traffic.
The advantage of this method is that it is passive. Once you have the structure in place, the job listings will come naturally, and you can charge anywhere from $10 up to $100 for each.
List of popular job board software:
* JobThread
* Web Scribe Job Board
* SimplyHired Job-o-matic
* Jobbex
8. Paid Reviews.
In this method the blogger will put reviews on products or services by a certain merchant and they got paid for the reviews. It is not much but a dollar is still a dollar. Right?
9. Donations.
This is very common to new websites and blogs. The opwner will ask for donation so that they can continue financing the needs of the website like the domain hosting fees and others.
10.Selling your Website
You can earn through selling your website, if your site already has a solid traffic coming in you can sell it for higher price. I am not into this method because why would I sell my site for a one time money if you can earn through it passively?
There you go folks. Those are the most common ways to earn through your website. Hope you learn something in it. If you have other methods in mind please comment it here so that we can update the list.

What is a BLOG? According to google 'blog' is short for 'weblog', a frequently updated publication of comments and thoughts on the web. Usually it is reflecting the views of the blog's creator. It is like an online diary. Blogs consist of text and images and are sorted by date. The newest information is on the top and there is an archive of the old one. People create blogs to share their thoughts with the world. A person writing in the journal is called a 'blogger'. Bloggers write about different topics: from the typical daily situations to the progress of some scientific researches. The readers also can leave comments and thus make the whole blog more interesting and useful.
Here's How:
- Choosing the blogging software to use. There two main blogging software available which are free and that is blogger and wordpress. You can choose between this two and decide which you prefer most.
- Register for an account in the choosen software you have done in step 1 and create your blog.This are the step-by-step manual you can follow to create a blog in blogger or wordpress.
- Select Your Domain, Theme and Other Options.During the registration process for your new blog account, you have to choose a domain name and blog theme. You also might want to take a few minutes before you actually start blogging to customize some of the other preferences for your blog that your blogging software allows you to modify such as the author name, comment moderation process, and so on. However, you're not required to do any customization before you start publishing blog posts. Another thing also is that you can customize the them, you can upload your own theme to the blogging software.
- Start blogging. Once you've completed steps 1-3, you're ready to join the blogosphere and start publishing content on your blog. There are many more ways you can customize your blog with plug-ins, feeds, blogrolls, and more gadgets, but these four easy steps are all you need to follow in order to start a simple blog.
In the next few articles I will also show some hacks/customization techniques in the blog themes and how to market your blog. I am not a guru and I am still learning also but I just want to share some information that I think can help you to avoid some of the unfortunate things that can happen to you when blogging.
Wow it is already Game 1 for the NBA Finals for 2010 season. I am tuned to yahoo sports for the latest updates, the game was close but it is still the first half.
With Kobe on the realm I think offensively the Lakers got the edge but don't count the Celtics out because they have players that are defensive specialists that can go all out against those athletic players in Lakers uniform.
The Celtic's Big 3 + Rondo will present match-up problems to the Lakers but the main weapon that the Celtics have is their tenacious,had-nose defense.
My prediction for this series would be Celtics in 6 or 7.
