Make Money Online Trends

There are people who think that making money online has to deal with internet marketing as well. But as far as I believe whoever wraps up "making money online" with "Internet marketing", does it more to benefit himself rather than to help others better understand the core idea of making money online. “Make Money Online” is that one Formidable phrase that every marketer in the niche uses either for bringing traffic to his site or for catching more fishes. It is known that "money online" is very often one of the most searched term on internet marketing blogs.

Blogger is the most popular blogging platforms worldwide. It is because it is easy to use, its free, you can add widgets and get a lot of good themes for free. There are tons of blogger themes on the internet. There are some themes too that you’ll need to pay to use. A handful of themes are provided by blogger too but they aren’t much attractive. But you can find a lot of good quality professional templates elsewhere and that too for free. Many of these templates are supplied by popular sites like eblogtemplates, themesforu etc. They usually host the images used in the theme on free photohosting sites, mostly on Photobucket. But do you know, sometimes you feel terribly helpless if you use such themes. Photobucket provides a limited montly bandwidth for each account and as there are thousands of others using the theme from the theme source site, the bandwidth is easily consumed. When full bandwidth is consumed, the images used don’t show up in your blog and your blog goes totally weird.

So, what can you do? Do you want to read those comments the other day with your readers shouting at you for a dumb template? Well I guess no and here’s the solution. If they use Photobucket to host the images you too can. Or if you have a paid hosting of your own, you can put your images there too. Anyway for now, lets use Photobucket.

First you’ll need to download all the images used in your theme created by others. Sometimes, the theme providers gives all the images in a separate folder and sometimes not. So, first download all the images used in your theme. Open your theme in a text editor. You can use a text editor like notepad or a bit advanced one like Notepad++. Find all the occurrences of .jpg, .gif and .png in your theme source using the find command(ctrl+f). Just copy the ful url with .jpg, .gif or .png at the end and paste them on your address bar to see and download the images. In this manner, download all the images that are being used in your theme. The URL of the images will look like this:

After that, go to Photobucket.com. If you already have an account, that’s fine else sign up for one and create a new album in your account. Give it the name of your theme. Now upload all the images used in your theme to this album. If you create an album named themepics and your username is cooldude, your image URL will look like this:

Now go to your theme and replace the album link already being used in the theme with your album link. In the above case, you should replace http://i641.photobucket.com/albums/uu131/eblotemplates/album/ with http://i641.photobucket.com/albums/uu131/cooldude/themepics/. Use “Replace all” to replace all at once. Now upload your theme to blogger and you’re done.

So, by hosting your blogger theme’s images on your Photobucket account, you’ll never have to worry about bandwidth exceeds.

In my last post about making money with paid survey programs, I had told that I’d soon be coming up with a list of some good paid to survey sites. Getting paid for answering surveys is a really cool way of making money at home. here are a few paid to survey sites:

There are various ways of making money online. Many prefer to make money online by monetizing their blogs or websites with programs like Adsense or Adbrite or other CPA programs. But do you know that you can also make money online by answering surveys? Yes, this is no joke. You can make a good money online by participating in surveys. Well I must tell you that this is no "Get rich quick" or "become a millionaire overnight" program. But this surely can make you a fairly good amount of money . The amount you earn depends on the length of surveys that you participate in.

You work all day long for your company. You're provided with a cabin that is cool, furnished and 2 hour AC. There are other employees in the office who greet you with a grin and a "Good Morning". Or if you work on a relatively lower post, you greet a handful of your seniors with the stereotypical "good morning" phrase. Well regular jobs free from the worries loss, you won't have to worry about your recent investment that you don't much rely upon. But all jobs don't pay enough for a happy and fully furnished life. You work all day long for a company, the labour you pour brings fortunes to your company but you won't be able to reap much of it, except for your basic salary. Being self-employed is far better than being just employed. You'll have a job of your own and you will yourself be your boss. Making Money on the Internet can really make this possible. All you need is a computer with an internet connection and some basic skills to make money online at home.

There is no denial to the fact that Wordpress is far more sophisticated, advanced and customizable than Blogger. Blogger and Wordpress both come for free but to use Wordpress, you need to spend money in buying domain and hosting. The all-free feature of Blogger makes it a holy grail though. You can have free blogs elsewhere too, like on Wordpress.com, Xanga etc. but they are less customizable than Blogger. Due to lack of plugin support and other customization options in Blogger, inserting Adsense in Blogger is a tad difficult than in Wordpress.

These days, everyone seems to be blogging on his/her topics of interest. Blogging has been sought after very much for making money because it is probably the easiest way for making money over the web. Blogging for passion is good all the way, but what harm does it do if it can generate bucks for you without having to put more effort?
