It’s a girly thing

by

fallmums I know that this site has a good mix of men and women who read it regularly, but it seems that a higher majority of women comment. I’m not sure why that is, but it’s a fact.

Since my female readers are the more vocal of the bunch I thought I’d introduce them to a brand new site called Girly Things. I think the ladies will like this blog.

Angie created this blog as a way to re-learn why being a girl on her own is just plain glorious. Her blog talks about life from a womans point of view and discusses many of the simple pleasures that we take for granted – like joy of having freshly shaved legs. Read the post- you’ll understand.

As I said the site is very young but I think it has a good future.

If you have a site that’s for Women Only, or one that is written more from a womans point of view rather than a general point of view go on over and introduce yourself.






Make money with Loudlaunch

by

Did you know that there’s yet another way to make some money while you blog? That’s right. A new company called Loudlaunch recently opened up and the site allows bloggers to be paid for blogging about advertising campaigns that posted by advertising members of the Loudlaunch site.

Loudlaunch is a benefit to bloggers in that they can write about products or sites that fit well with their own blog, or about sites and products that they are interested in that they believe their readers would enjoy hearing about; and advertisers have a great way of getting word out about their new site, or about specific products on their site. Advertisers can create an advertising campaign for as little as $50. The bloggers make money by writing about the advertisers promotions and the advertisers get more visitors to their sites and perhaps some new sales as a result. Everybody wins.

When a blogger signs up with Loudlaunch and puts their site up for review they can select which categories their site best falls into. A formal review of the site is done by a Loudlaunch team member and they might make slight adjustments to the blogs listing. Advertisers can select which type of blogs can write about their campaign via the various categories that the blogs end up being listed under.

The amount that a blogger is paid for each campaign that they post is determined by their blogs rating. Such factors as a blogs standings via Alexa, Technorati, page rank and possibly a few other factors come into play as to what the blogger will be paid. Bloggers will be compensated anywhere from $5 per posting up to over $200 for very high ranking blogs.

One thing that I like about Loudlaunch is that at the bottom of each post a disclosure will show that declares that the post is sponsored. I also like that advertisers can’t require a positive spin or tone to their campaigns. Bloggers can write what they feel, however if they feel negatively towards whatever an advertiser is promoting I don’t really see much reason to promote the product. So I’m assuming that most reviews will be neutral to positive depending upon the bloggers point of view.

Residual income for life?

by

Have you ever wanted to get in on the ground floor of a company, particularly if it could lead you to success and financial freedom?

I know that I’d be interested in something that gave me enough money that I could spend my time traveling and when not traveling, well you know me, I’d spend time tending and enjoying my garden, and oh what a garden it would be!

A new company called Oakley International has developed programs and provides information on a number of different ways that if you follow their advice will allow you to earn Residual Income for life. Now, I’ve just come across this site myself and I plan to take and in depth look into the programs they are offering, but I wanted to let all of my readers know about Oakley International as well. Their site is in the Pre-Launch stage and that is the best time to sign up with a new business and start to learn more about what they are offering.
