Tagvillagers: Sales Spreadsheets

Sales Sheets!
 
This one is to the members over at Tagvillage, after a lot of thinking and wanting to know what my actual profits were from all separate parts of the site, I have come up with this spreadsheet. It took me some time to put together and I would be glad to share it with my friends over at Tagvillage!


Here is a screenshot of the sheet, of course it is a fairly simple spreadsheet. I have put in all of the formulas so that all you need to do is copy and paste from Tagvillage into the spreadsheet. All that I ask for is a small $1.00 donation for the time I put into it. This will also allow me to go ahead and make animated banners that I will be able to create for you Tagvillagers to put on your taglines and signatures to gain referrals!

So whenever you donate the payment I will go ahead and send the file to your email address that paypal provides!


Simply make a $1.00 payment through paypal to eddiac78@gmail.com, please make sure that you select Personal and that the money is being sent as a Gift.
(I prefer using this method as PayPal now charges fees on it's donation links)

Does Facebook Pay You?

Tagvillage Does!

Tagvillage is similar to Kooday but far more intuitive. For those of you who don’t know what Kooday is, it is a platform for buying and selling keywords. Tagvillage has implemented this same strategy but with many more ways to earn money. The site is currently in phase one of it’s three phase plan.

Phase 1:

Building a platform in which to buy and sell keywords. Probably the most profitable part of the site, they have developed a system that is both easy to maneuver and intuitive in it’s design. So, when you buy a keyword, say at $1.00, that keyword will increase 130% and be re-listed in the database at it’s new price of $1.30. Now another member of TagVillage may want this word and purchase it from you in which case you receive $1.30 plus 15% of the sale which is .20 cents meaning you ultimately earn $1.50.

Phase 2:

The next phase of TagVillage is implementing facebook. You will then be paid to do things you normally would on facebook such as chatting with a friend, liking a status, or uploading pictures. You will receive activity points that at the end of the day is turned into money. The amount you earn fluctuates depending on the revenue made by the company that day.

Phase 3:

The most important part of TagVillage and the one that will make you the most money is what they call TagVertising. Based on the keywords you own, you will be paid 20% of the advertising revenue for that day. This will be the most profitable part of the site and will no doubt draw in many people.

So with everything that this site is going to be, it is a great opportunity to jump in and start earning the money that could be yours!

Recycle and Earn

A few ways to make the best out of taking the time to recycle.

Everyone has things that they no longer need or no longer want, and while most of us decide to just go ahead and throw these items away, there are a few who profit from these diamonds in the rough. One thing that you need to know about recycling items is that if you paid for it, then someone else will most likely pay you for it. I have personally made around $40.00 just selling old cell phones back to an online company in order to fund a trip to Spain. As the old saying goes, “One man’s trash, is another man’s treasure.”

Box Recycling:
Recylcing boxes is one of the simplest things you can do, while it may require you to have a large amount of boxes in order to see a significant return though. Remember that at the end of the day, money is money, no matter how much or how little. You can find box recyclers at these links:
Electronics:
Recycling electronics can be highly profitable, considering some sights will pay you over $100.00 for a gently used iphone 3GS. If you are able to find a good supply of electronics or are getting rid of some of your older equiptment these are a few places that you should check into. Don’t let those electronics go to waste in a landfill, have them recycled and get paid for it.
Toner Cartridges:
Another way to earn a good amount of money through recycled materials is toner/ink cartridges. Personally I have looked into this and with the right amount of supplies and a good number of clients, this can be turned into a small business.
Scrap Metal:
While many people don’t have this lying around, it is still a viable option for some. I’m not well versed in the selling of scrap metal but I understand that the prices can get up there as far as value. I hope this will help some of you go about your recycling.
Well that’s my list of places I have looked into and have worked with personally, I hope this list helps you bring as much prosperity as it did me. Good Luck!

Hits4Pay: Paid to Read Emails

We all receive spam in our inbox telling us how we can become the next millionaire or how if we give them our personal information we will receive a brand new laptop for free! While these advertisements seem too good to be true, Hits4Pay is not. They are one of the few paid to read (PTR) sites that are still living and legitimate.

What is Hits4Pay?
To put it simply, Hits4Pay is a website with which you get paid to read emails. Many of them are advertisements that you need to keep open for x amount of time while you complete other tasks on your computer. Some of the benefits to this program is that they give you a virtual inbox on their website, so your personal inbox wont be cluttered up with your paid emails.

How to start?
In order to start making money on your Hits4Pay account all you have to do is:
  • Sign up for a free email reading account with Hits4Pay
  • Select the type of emails that you would be interested in
  • View your emails and visit the links to the websites
  • You’ll receive your pay per email
  • Check back every day for new offers, they have a system that will email your personal email account and let you know you have paid emails waiting.
  • They pay out at the end of every month

So, I have been using Hits4Pay for quite a bit now and have been receiving 4 to 6 emails every day, while it seems small, this begins to add up over time. Hits4Pay is a legitimate place to make some extra money, and remember that the best way to go about this is to pair it with your other websites you’re using to maximize your monthly income.

Currently they are offering a $10.00 bonus just for signing up!

Small Business: Selling Toner Cartridges

There are many people out there who have started there own small businesses through buying and selling toner/ink cartridges. A lot of people may not know that the cartridges thrown out every month actually still have value. The fact that many businesses do not practice recycling their cartridges is of great benefit to you and me. By getting them to either allow you to recycle their cartridges for them, or by buying their cartridges, you stand to make a profit with no actual inventory.

How to Get Started:
1. Do some research finding websites that will offer you the best possible prices for the cartridges that you are trying to sell. Remember not all websites accept every make and model so try and utilize all of them that are available to you. Two that I would personally recommend are:
2. Do some research, find out what businesses in your area are doing with their empty cartridges and see if they are interested in either giving them to you to recycle for free, or if they would be interested in compensation for their cartridges. Make sure that you don’t let them take advantage of you, remember, they were going to throw these items away anyways. I would personally say something along the lines of, “What’s better, you throwing away your empty cartridges, recycling them, or having me buy them from you.”

3. After you’ve established a decent client base make sure that you are organized. Organization will be a key in this, you will need to know what cartridges are to be sent out to what websites in order for you to be paid. Keep in mind, their will need to be an initial investment if you are going to be buying the cartridges from these companies.

4. Stay strong and keep relationships with your clients, set up a time of the month when you would visit them for pickups and payments. Begin to reap the rewards and if necessary start to expand your business. This is in no way a get rich quick scheme, but with the right mind set, it can be a viable source of income.
Hope the article helps you and good luck on your ventures!

MyLot: A Paid Social Network

Many of us spend at least a short amount of time on our facebook pages every day, talking about the newest gadgets, movies, and music that has been coming out. Pretty much anything that interests us we discuss with our friends on the widely known social networking site. But how many of you would believe me if I told you that you could be payed to do this very thing at no cost to you! MyLot is a discussion site in which you are payed for the number of posts you make. Discussion topics vary from dogs to cellphones to the latest coffee you tried at Starbucks and the more you participate the more you earn!

So How Does it Work?

MyLot is simply a message board on which you are payed to post. For those of you who don’t know, a message board is where people post topics or photos to other people to have them respond. Anyone is able to start a topic and you can respond to any topic. They have a unique interests menu where you can set up what you’re favorite things are, this will help myLot in providing you with discussions based around your interests. Lets say that you have a dying urge to find out how many people prefer a Gibson as opposed to a Fender, you would simply post this as a discussion, tag it as guitars and watch your responses. It’s that simple.

What’s the Pay Like?

So, myLot pays us a percentage of what the advertisers are paying them to show us ads targeted at our interests. So there are two ways to earn money on myLot, simply posting on the discussion boards or referring people to the website. Now you aren’t going to make  a ton of money, it fluctuates based on the advertisers at the time of your posting but if you combine this with other online paying sites it could be an easy source of extra cash. How many people can say they get payed for talking about whatever they enjoy. Remember the more you participate the more money you can earn!

**On another note, you are not required to do any of the ads or fill out any information after signing up with myLot, the ads after the sign up have the option to skip.**
