Here is a way to make money without having to pay any monthly or joining fees.

You make money by simply buying pre-paid airtime and selling it to your friends, colleagues or clients

There are two systems available:

1. Airtime4Profit.co.za is for the smaller retailer who sell more than R150.00 worth of airtime per month. This is a web based system. You can also use it on your smart phone. You simply buy the airtime on the web site and then sell it to your client. When you buy the airtime you have the option of viewing it on screen, printing it, email it or sms it to your client (sms at your cost). You get a flat rate of 5% discount on all the networks. This includes Vodacom, MTN, Cell C, Virgin Mobile, Telkom, Worldchat, Neotel, WorldCall, 8.ta, Bela, Eskom. You can also recharge our special low call cost handsets if you have one. Talk to us about it. (Note: there is no discount on ESKOM, it is for convenience only.)… Read more »

Earlier this year I stopped selling my eBook on “How to make money on the Internet” because the constant inflow of emails kept me too busy. Now I get a constant inflow of people who ask for help and where they can get some more information.

It break my heart to see how many desperately need help. Over the past 4 months I gave away many copies of my eBook.

So I decided to put it back on the market as I can see people desperately need the information in my book.

I did not only put it back in the market, I even lowered the price dramatically so that more people can afford it.

my eBook is now only R80.00 and you can buy it directly on this web site at http://pietpetoors.com/blog/my-products/

PLEASE NOTE: I use PayFast as payment processor and PayFast does have an EFT option, so please do not email me asking me for my banking details  because you do not want to use your credit card on the Internet, You can go through the whole process with PayFast and then just select the EFT option.

Your Opinion

Although regular readers might know that I am not very keen on Paid Surveys, I will report on them because many people are looking for Paid Surveys in order to make money online.

I stumbled upon another Paid Survey company and this one make a bit more sense than the others I tried so far.

First of all it is FREE to join which is a  big bonus.

They work on a system where you get paid an amount for each online survey you complete. They also reward you points and add your name to a lucky draw. The more active you are the more points you earn.

I tested the system and received two Surveys within the first two days.

The first was a lot of bogus with stupid questions, but I still earned one Euro for it. What I like about the system is that after your completed the survey you get redirected back to In Your Opinion’s web site and then they ask you what you think about the survey.

The second one was about buying a new car and guess what?;  I could select whether I am from South Africa or not AND I could even select to do it in Afrikaans.

As I said it does not cost you anything to join, so give it a go.

I have not been testing it long enough to earn enough to request a payout. Thus I cannot tell you at this stage whether they are paying or not. I will report on it as we go on. I the mean time try it and let me know what you think.

Afrigator

South African based advertising platform, Afrigator, opened their doors to new South African blogs. If you own a blog you can use Afrigator to earn an income with your blog.

But is it worth using it?

All you have to do after you registered (and if you were approved) is to place some code in your blog which will enable your blog to serve some ads from Afrigator. When I registered for this service a year ago it was free, but I see they now charge a activation fee of R250.00 . To give you an idea whether it is worth your while, on this blog I earn about R180 per month from Adgator. Depending on who you believe this blog gets about 20,000 page impressions per month (according to Google Analytics) or 74,000 page impressions per month (according to the Webstat stats on the server).

On my blog it worked fine for a while but then it stopped paying and I removed Adgator from my site and replaced it with Adsense again. The scripts was serving thousands of ads without me being paid a cent for it (see screen shots below). Their policy is that if there are no ads to be served they will serve their own ad and you do not earn something when your own ad is served. But I regularly pop into my site and especially on the second time I tested it there was relevant ads served on my site, yet the system did not record any payment for it.

Avoid

This seemed like a good idea but it is going nowhere fast. I found that most of the goods they offer are highly over priced and you can import it yourself cheaper. It also seems as if the owners are not making enough money from the dropshipping business as they now started to send out offers to their mailing lists which are mostly affiliated offers by Offerforge and Traffic Synergy. For now I would say AVOID this business. It is a brilliant idea but you need the right people to run it.
 

Ten months ago my view on this business was:

Today we are looking into a business which offers you three ways of earning a potential income.

The company is called “Dropshippers.co.za” and you will find them at www.dropshippers.co.za .

This is the first Drop Shipping business I am aware of in South Africa.  I know in America it is a very popular way for companies to distribute their products.

What is Drop Shipping?

It is an interface between product suppliers, product promoters and the client.  In short this means that you can sell products online and via Drop Shippers the products will be delivered to your clients on your behalf, thus you do not have to worry about sending the goods or keeping stock.

How do you make money from this?

1. Affiliate Marketing

Since the main topic of this blog is making money from affiliate marketing, adsense, etc I will first look at the affiliate marketing side of the business.

You can register for free as an affiliate. You will get banners and text links which you can use to promote the business. If you refer a client who become a retailer or product supplier you will earn R100 commission. If the client you refer only become a normal user (ie shopper) you still earn R1 commission.

Sound Therapy

Have you ever tried sound therapy to combat stress or to increase your productivity, creativity or general well being?

Many years ago I suffered from depression but did not want to use the normal medication. I ended up at a guy with a Scio Machine. He fixed whatever was wrong with a combination of the Scio and sound therapy. The sound therapy was in the form of CDs with funny sounds recorded on it. The nice thing about it is that you do not have to believe that it will work, you just have to listen to it. The sounds waves are the correct frequency to work on the areas that needs attention.

I paid R250 per CD 6 years ago.

I was now introduced to a program which offers 20 simular sound therapy programs at a once off fee of only R1,000. These programs include ADHD, Energize your thoughts, Increase Creativity, Memory booster, Recharge, Power Sleep, Super learning, etc. So you can see that the series is aimed at a wide spectrum. You can use it for your children or for yourself. Read more »

AdDynamo Stats

I see many South African web sites switched to Addynamo.

AdDynamo is a Pay per Click engine, similar to Google Adsense and Adwords. What I like about AdDynamo is that they have the advertising and publishing side on the same site, not like Google where it is two different sites with two different names.

I prefer to support local business where I can and I think Google is operating their business in a mafia way, so I decided to give it a try.

At first the AdDynamo ads do take some time before they serve the correct ads on your site. For a rather long time all you see is an AdDynamo ad.

Once the ads are displayed it works very while and there are no problems with implementing the script.

On the sites I tested I received a eCPM of between R3 and R7 depending on the web site.

This is still lower than my Adsense income but it is a good start for a new venture. I am sure as more businesses advertise on this service the more relevant the ads will become and the higher the CPM.

In my opinion Adsense remains the most successful ad network because the ads they serve are mostly relevant to the page.

AdDynamo is a good alternative for Adsense but at this stage the income (mine anyway)  is not better than Adsense yet. If your Adsense account has been suspended for some reason (which Mafia Google often do at the moment) then AdDynamo is the best to go for.

Smile

I just love my web sites and my job.

Today I received a small gift in the post, a cheque of $104.65 arrived from ClickBank.

$100 is not money anymore but let me explain why I am so excited about this particular cheque;

I have two Clickbank accounts. The one I opened when I started with affiliate marketing way back in 2000 or 2001.

When I launched my eBook 2 years ago I created a new Clickbank account and stopped using the old one.

But of course on all my web sites were clickbank links which used the old account. I tried to change as much of those old links as I could found.

Obviously I did not change all of those links because somewhere on the world wide web people are still buying products after they clicked on one of my old links.

This cheque was the 5th one I received since I stopped using the old account and I really thought  that by now all the old links would have vanished.

So I earned another $100 without knowing where it comes from. I know it must be some old links I posted somewhere but have no clue where those links are.

This shows you that building your own web site containing affiliate links and Google ads is a long term investment. It is not a quick buck way of making money. Every page and every article you add to your web site can be earning you an income for many years to come.
