Ed Earns

Just when I thought everything would be smooth sailing, my last website that has a more than zero PR –> Edearns.com (PR 1) has been slammed by Google and my PR has now dropped. Ironic that it went down the moment that I blogged about it.

Oh well, we can’t everything. Even if people do say that it’s PR is a good measurement, I know it’s not everything. I just wished I could reach a 4 or something like what other blogmates I know were able to do. But hey, I’m not Google. hehe.

It was fun while it lasted.

I had to cash out. I needed the money to pay off certain debt so I wouldn’t have to worry about monthly expenses that’s why  I cashed out the moolah that I earned for the past 3 months. I withdrew  around 475 bucks. I wanted to wait for it to reach 500 but since I was a little desperate, I had to get it ASAP.

But I’m very much glad. I won’t have to worry about anything else since this is extra money for me and knowing that I’m able to spend it to something useful is good enough already.

It still amazes me at times when I’d see that I’m really able to earn extra out of this hobby. But what I’m planning to focus more now is how to build my profile in order to establish a better network. Odesk doesn’t seem so far from my mind. Thanks to Faith for the encouragement, I need to get my ass working if ever I want to earn fast.

They say it doesn’t really matter if you have a high Page Rank or not. But for me, it still does. It’s a big factor especially when you bid for tasks.

I know I was able to get some opportunities online from different advertisers even if my blogs are of 0 Page Rank value. But I could definitely earn more and have more options if I had a higher Page Rank.

It’s sometimes upsetting that I don’t know that much on how to increase the status despite having a number of blogworthy entries. And I don’t want to result into putting my face plastered all over the website in order to attract more traffic (assuming. hehe). Still, I wish I had a higher PR, but it seems that it’s really impossible unless I do something drastic.

But I’m glad that I still have some tasks to do despite having Zero values of my sites (except for Edearns.com). It’s been almost a year since I have the same status. Dang.

I upgraded this site to the latest version of Wordpress.

I skipped to 2.7.1 from 2.6 because I still had issues with the 2.7. Edearns.com still had some issues because of the plugins that I put in the directory and I knew I needed more time to do this. Anyway, it’s nice to have the latest, it means that you’re updated. Just that my entries seem to be not. hehe.

I was supposed to be focused on adding newer posts that are sticky-topics over the weekend. I even filed for leave today but because my labor is needed at work, I have to give my dedication and probably spend the better part of the weekend at the office.

So I guess I won’t be able to update edearns.com as much as I want to. I’ll try to find time though.

I only pay 1 dollar per month for this site that’s hosted. For me, it’s already a good deal since I wouldn’t have to worry that much since the purpose of this blog is just to talk about how I was able to earn money online. Anyway, I’m actually planning to buy another site which is dedicated to photography, but I know I need to have more focus and time. I’m still a bit apprehensive whether I should stick to my current plan or I should read some hosting faq first before i jump to new territory.

My mind is still preoccupied with school, work, blogging and now this new venture called oDesk. Wish me luck guys.

Guys, let me introduce to you my new bebe!

I used to envy bloggers who were able to buy something out of the blog money that they were able to earn. Come to think of it, I used to envy bloggers who were able to earn blog money. period. That’s why I’ve always wondered how it would be like to be part of those people who were able to get their laptop or something else out of the craft they made online.

Although this was paid using credit, I’m able to get this new baby using my blog money. I never thought this would happen to me but it did! It’s such a nice feeling to be able to reap your rewards after some hard work, perseverance and a lot of patience.

I hope I don’t sound too proud, but I just want to let other people know that it is indeed possible. Hope we all get something out of our blogs!

I bought one! But I’ll be discussing it probably tomorrow or the next day. I don’t have much time right now with all the things going on at work and the requirements I have to finish in school. I’m already too sleepy because of what I was able to buy awhile ago. I’ve been awake for more than 24 hours now but I have to wake up early tomorrow for a class field trip.

Anyway, it seems that I’ve been getting a number of tasks (though with small amount) from Payperpost. But I don’t want to write some of them as the requirements were a bit taxing even for me. I don’t want to write about botox procedures and then embed a video of the procedure on my sites. I guess I’ve become a bit choosy with the opportunities that I take. Besides, it’s going to be in my blog that is being published so I better just lie low with some of them that aren’t that appealing even when I feel desperate.

Because of this, I haven’t earned as much right now.

I am excited. Although there aren’t that many opportunities, I’m still able to expand my blogs to a four. I’ll be posting my sites one by one soon. But for now, I just can’t hide the fact that I’ll be able to achieve

and I can say that I’ll be using the money that I earned online in order to purchase my next baby! haha.

Come baby come. push some more, only 10 days left. push push.
Delivery’s fast approaching.

D80, here I come! ;p
