My month with Adgitize
So this last month I have be using Adgitize as a means to get more traffic over to LoaTW. It had its ups and downs but There where some things I really liked about it.
I made all my money back
It wasn't the easiest money in the world but I did make over 17$. This will help pay for next month and was quite rewarding to get a hold of.
I got a lot more traffic
I officially hit over 100 hits every single day which was nice. Not all of was quality, but I did manage to get some feedback and my readership went up by about 5 to 10 people. Plus on top of all this my bounce rate didn't go up that much which was nice for me.
Entrecard Spiked
The amount of hits that I received to my widget was defiantly nice. I got at least 80 hits everyday to my widget, and was able to use the cash out system to make 15$ this month with EntreCard.
Would I recommend it?
Yes, I would very much recommend it especially for anyone who is just starting out and is doing hundreds of drops daily anyways. If you want to get more hits Adgitize is defiantly a great program. I want to renew my subscription but not just yet, as I am leaving on another trip in two weeks, and plan on getting the most out of what I am paying for.

How to make money off your Referral links
Now for a lot of out there we spend a lot of time writing up posts, posting affiliate links, and yet still…no one joins up on the sites that we talk about. Now although the chances are that you are probably just not get enough traffic, it helps to get a boost of income just when someone clicks on your link. How do you do this? By using websites let you shorten it. Not tinyurl but…
I recent stumbled upon two different sites that let you monetize your outgoing links. The 1st is called Linkbee, while the 2nd is called Adfly. Setting up an account is easy (email, name, user, and pass) and from here you just put in a link and they give you a shortened version of the link that has an advert that your clickers can either pass up, or just watch. Also what is nice is that the two sites track your clicks, so you can know how many people are actually clicking on them.
So what is the difference between the two sites? Well here are my 1st impressions.
Linkbee has a much better looking interface. You can set up links as well as banners, plus upload pictures, and you can have it upload straight to your twitter account. The advantage here is that you can also get cash from you refs at 15%, 10%, 5%, 5%, and 5% for each level down to 5. CPM is $1.50 in the states, so you won’t get rich quick but you will make a bit of extra cash. Cashout is 15$.
Adfly is not as good, but it has some perks. You can have links up, but not banners or pics (that I can see.) CPM is only $1 and payment with refs is only 1 level deep, but it is set at 20% which is very nice. The think that I like about this site is that unlike Linkbee it codes the pages so that they work out perfectly for Twitter (almost like a Tinyurl link). Cashout is 20$ but you start out with 5$ in your account.
So for these two link shorteners I would recommend Adfly for when you are using Twitter, and Linkbee when adding stuff to your site as it won’t irritate your visitors as much.
So now the ball is in your court. What experiences have you had with link shorteners such as these? Would you recommend them? What other sites out there are better or worse?

Payments for the Month of May
This month has been really crazy with everything going on, but I did manage to generate a little income. I would be showing everything that I made as it would make the total go up, however I think it only fair that I only show the money I have made off of cash out...So here we are.
Adgitize- $14.34 This is including all the months I went as just as a publisher, but it is still impressive since I only had like 19 cents going into the 15th of the month. This is a great service that I think any new blogger should check out.
Triond- $0.95 This is a writing site that I have made close to 4 dollars with now. It isn't great if you want straight satisfaction but with over 20 hits a day, I am always hitting cash out. (note, I didn't write one article for them at all this month.)
YouData- $4.04 I was really excited when I 1st hit payout, but since then it has been a bummer. Because the site is new they don't always have enough ads and I have only made one paycheck off them.
Global Test Market- $50.00 I wish I could post an affiliate link for this site as I love it a lot, however they only allow email sign ups. This is a survey site that I have made over $200 with. The only think I don't like is that they pay by check, which means it takes them 4-5 to process the check. Still it is a good site I recommend.
ClixSense- $7.50 I was a bit mad when I found out there was a processing fee. I upgraded to premium because I wanted more ads, and affiliate opportunities also definitely worth it.
My online total... $76.83
Now I realize this is rather low. But I didn't have a chance to do too much with CashCrate this month. I plan on getting that up this next and hopefully I will start making a bit more off EntreCard since my cash out account got approved. Till later I wish you all peace, good luck in your money making adventures.

Not Today
This truth is I would really like to post something, but I just worked 5 hours last night (made 86 bucks!) and work an 8 hour shift tonight. So...I'm going to leave you with some words of knowledge.

5 Reasons Why Making Money Online is More Fun than Working at a Job
When going about making money online, and making money at a job I have noticed a few things that make me smile. Here is why I enjoy making money online as opposed to going to work.
You get your own hours
It may not always equal out to making you the most money ever, but you get to choose how much work you put in. When I run out of stuff to do on the sites that I use, I get to go do whatever. I feel like doing.
It's fun
I may be making pennies here and there, but in the end I get to find out what works and what doesn't. Trying new sites is always a new experience, and I love to find new ways of making money.
I meet cool people
My blog LoaTW doesn't really make a lot of money, but the amount of people that I get to meet is really cool because they are nice people. I get comments, and get to read a lot of really cool blogs.
I am my own boss
This kind of falls in with number one. It is cool to do what you want, and when you want, and not have to worry about a boss telling you what to do, and when you need to work.
No stupid people
When working at a job you have to put up with stupid people. Sometimes these are other employees, or they are customers, but either way they just get on your nerves. When working online, you really don't have to deal with these types of people period! All your work is online, which means no face to face interaction.
So what about you? How do you feel about working online/offline? What are some reason that you like to work from your computer as opposed to going to work for a boss?

Why Adgitize is Such a Good Service.
As you know I have upgraded my Adgitize account on LoaTW to Advirtiser. The reason being is that it generates views to my site, along with give me a little extra income.
Now over the last two weeks I have been gathering up information on how my ad has been doing. Here are some points I would like to make about Adgitize.
It's easy to set up
Setting up my ad literally took me about 5minutes or less, and that was because I forgot where my image for my ad was.
My page views went up dramatically
Ever since I got the ad on Adgitize I have never dropped below 100 views and my # of page views made its way up to 185.
Comments have increased
By day one I had already received one comment from someone using Adgitize. The best part was that it wasn't just a random comment. it had some quality and was actually incitement.
Income is always nice
With the last 2 weeks I have actually generated almost twice as much income as I have before I became an advertiser. This puts my total for the month at $7.26.
Those are my reasons for joining. So how bout you? Have you had success with Adgitize?
