and I hope I could be forgiven for this. Because I still have an extra 500 EC credits and I think I can still accommodate one more widget on my sidebar, I decided to draw another winner... and that happens to be.....

For Brian, please send me your PayPal ID at roysville(at)gmail.com

To all: please email me your 125 x 125 widget (jpg) and the url where you want it to be linked (I have seen most have multiple blogs)

The one month ad will run from October 1 to 31, 2008 while the two weeks ads will run from October 1 to 15.

The EC credits will be sent to you tomorrow, as I am already sleepy now. I hope you won't mind waiting for another day.

Congratulations to all the winners!

For those who weren't so lucky, there's another contest cooking up... I hope you'll still support me then.

Thank you very much guys!

It's September 23, 2008 12:00 MN, Philippine time, that only means that my first ever contest is officially over. I would like to thank all who supported me in my first project. I am really very happy with the turnout, considering that I was not able to fully promote it on the EntreCard forum because I can't access the Promotion Section everytime I log in.

What makes me even happier is that, the blogs whose contests I joined in before, came here and supported my contest. I am very grateful for that. This is the very essence of bloggers supporting bloggers. Okay, before I get too mushy, I'd like to say thanks to all who took time and supported me in this contest. I am very excited to announce the winner on the 25th!

Why stay subscribed?
Usually, after the contest, some opt to unsubscribe. Nothing wrong with that really. But by doing so, you might miss some announcements. I'll admit, I don't have that much to announce at this point. But there'll be contest I'll be joining, making money online successes and failures that I may share, and some so called tips and POVs... and of course, future contests.

Announcement
And speaking of future contests, of course we all know that when there's a first one, there might be sequel... although, this blog's sequel might not be too soon. But I'm planning to hold a contest too for the month of October on another blog - The Struggling Blogger

In line with this, I am making this announcement here, I am seeking for sponsors! Should anybody want to take part in the future contest, please post here your intentions and the prize you're willing to give. You may also PM me thru EntreCard. You may also post comments and intentions at The Struggling Blogger, as I intend to post the announcement there too.

Again, thank you very much for all your support! Good luck to all participants in this contest!

What do I want to win?

Of course, I'm always aiming for the first prize!

Just would like to share some recent money online that I got (finally!)... my first to be honest

MyLot, yes, though I blogged about it already, I wasn't really sure yet until I got the moolah. Fortunately, last Thursday, I read in my email that MyLot finally sent me my first payout through PayPal. Definitely I'll be back for more.

Pay Per Post, my first approved opportunity, after a looooooong time. Having a low PR and all, it's definitely hard for me to get a writing opps. Finally, I got one. Read it on The Struggling Blogger

Writing for others, this is where I get my most money online so far. Like I said, I am struggling with my blogs' PR, that's why opportunities doesn't come that much (yet) I was fortunate to receive an assignment writing for others.

Notice I didn't put any amounts, well because the figures are not really that significant to make you drool. Just like what the title says, they are just my modest money online so far... I'm really hoping I could get more. As I've said in my previous post, money online won't come dropping, that's why I am working.

I wish I can write about earning with AdSense, but right now, I'm still very faaaaaar from the payout. I wonder where did the 5,000 daily visits posted in the comments of my previous post are coming from? I'll be happy with half of that.

That's it for now, I need to read some more blogs to learn more. Perhaps stumble upon some money-making online opportunity. If ever I did, you'll definitely be able to read it here.

There are lots of Make Money Online blogs on the net, all claiming to make money online. But are these online money for real? Or is online money really overrated? If you notice, this blog doesn't have the word 'Make' in its name, because as you can see in the tag line, it doesn't really claim to make money online, but just getting my fair share.

Now to my question of online money being overrated... honestly, I am of the opinion that it is. Sure, maybe some do really earn money, but as to the actual amount they're earning viz-a-viz with what their blogs are earning... I don't know.

I'm not one to discredit these blog, but I frown everytime I read at online forum boards someone asking question like "How can I have a blog? I'd like to have an extra income" Somehow, I imagine them reading one or two blogs earning so much from their blogs and claiming that it is such an easy thing... just like picking apples!

Truth is, making money online is not an overnight thing. It needs work... and more work, and then some more work. A blog is not an 'if you build it they will come thing', you need to go out. Seek for the money and don't just wait for it dropping on your blogs.

I won't be giving you tips on how make money online, not now... not yet. Maybe, when I am actually making money online, I would share them. But right now, this is what I can say, while some blogs claim to be earning online income, and perhaps they actually do, please remember that while it may be difficult not to be envious of these people and wanting to get a share too, let us not keep our hopes high. Not unless you're willing to invest lots of time working on your blog.

Just because I'm having a contest, doesn't mean I can't join in others. I got to have fun too, you know. And this is what this blog is all about. My entry to the contest at Bloganol's.
