Growing Crops Versus Blogging As An Investment

It is a busy Kamila, but not blogging right now. Funny though, even though she hasn't blogged for a few weeks the traffic she get is still running really well. Kamila understand that many loyal EC and Adgitise friends remain dropping on her event hough she hasn't had the time to reciprocate for a while and this is appreciated.

A question that cam into Kamila's mind recently is how long would it take for you Google ranking to drop if you suddenly stop blogging for a while? She know many blogs that haven't had any new postings for over six months yet they still hold a high Google PR. Surely Google must weigh this up and take account for it, or is the traffic still high on these static blogs through links that this is more of a major weight on PR?

It iw not that Kamila is going AWOL for six months but she is taking a little backwater time now spring is here and the manual work really begins off line. After all, investment in the spring and summer pay off with produce food for the next winter. Sometimes Kamila thinks that the time invested in farming crops is a more effective form of return than blogging! How much is a kilogram of tomatoes grown worth compared to earnings from Adsense or Project Wonderful, no competition the tomatoes win hands down!

So making money by blogging out of the growing season makes sense, but to be stuck in front of a laptop with the sun shining on the land waiting to be sown with seeds is not financially prudent. Perhaps this may give other bloggers tied to their blogs a little thought.

Another $100 From AdSense Due Before Christmas

Day to day is how Kamila is taking thing right now. Who knows what will happen in the future is the though that is fixed in her mid this weekend as she takes a couple of days break from blogging. Who would have thought Kamila would have ended up in Bulgaria as a blogger two years ago?

AdSense came to mind as Kamila’s mind wandered into money making ideas. This week saw the AdSense account nudge over $100 and therefore a payment is due through Western Union before Christmas. What great timing! This is the second $100 plus payment by AdSense over the year and of course once set up is a passive form of earning. Kamila knows that on average only a few cents a day are made, it can be 10 days on occasions where nothing is earned then suddenly $2-3 dollars are made in a day!

Not being an expert by any means on AdSense, Kamila knows that is she took the AdSense tips that are given on many money making blogs she could make a bit more out of it. This does mean that she would be writing centring on AdSense keywords rather than having a free hand and free willed. But on the other hand what is she doing when she write paid reviews anyway? It is no different and of course Google don’t look as serious at directed key-worded AdSense posting.

Kamila did dabble with AdBrite but found that this really didn’t make any money at all and the ads were a bit naughty on occasions. So she stuck with AdSense and of course has built up a little money for Christmas not for present, but to cover fuel for heating.

Kamila says, "Well worth the wait from AdSense!"

Kamila Is Over The Moon With A PR3, But Only For A Moment

Kamila couldn’t believe her large brown slanted camel eyes this week. Google must have got fed up with her complaining about them and have awarded her a new PR3. After all the ups and down over recent months, this should now her ranking for at least until the New Year. Funny how Kamila doesn’t really care about Google PR when she is at PR0, but now wears a PR3 with pride. This didn't last long however.

This of course causes more problems on how to go about making money with her blog now. Does she now take up the offers from paid blog reviews, which are coming through, or does she tread carefully to protect her higher PR ranking? The problem lies in that fact that Kamila has to make money and paid blog reviews are the biggest earners by far. “A good PR from Google doesn’t pay the bills!” says Kamila in the background as I now type it out. She is so right though.

I know Kamila very well now and I know deep down she feels that Google are too big for their boots. So I feel Kamila will carry on in the same way taking decently paid offer for paid blogging reviews. If she fall down on PR again then so be it, her Alexa rank remains constant and it doesn’t affect traffic she gets. In reality Kamila’s mind is saying that Google will not be in control of her and that’s a good attitude from a Camel who really doesn’t seem to have come of age recently.

Just to add, a recommendation was given by an Entrecard member Funky Town Disco Music a highly entertaining blog which Kamila visits regularly

Quote:
“Interesting articles written in simple and comprehensive by the most famous Camel in Bulgaria. Visit her blog and read her articles. Recommended.”

Kamila’s heart glowed when she saw this and of course approved it for publication.

“Chin up Everyone, Google isn’t God you know!” says Kamila.

Paid Blog Reviews That Don't Discriminate Against Low Google PR

Kamila has found herself being penalised for having a Google PR of '0' by both Blog Reviews and Pay Per Post, that is bar the $1 and sub $1 offers which Kamila refuse to entertain on principle of being manipulated. There are no earning now forthcoming form this kind of venture and her earning are no solely from Adgitize, CMF, Project Wonderful and Google Adsense. Apart from Adgitize who wins by a mile in payout and traffic, (see Kamila’s last post), the rest just pay nominal especially is you pay for additional ads in return which Kamila does.

There are for course the Kamila competition entries, but this is not for money, but for back links, prizes that she has no control over and of course a great deal of luck which she cant’ rely on. This now leads to a question from Kamila to other fellow bloggers. This question is:

Does anyone know of companies that pay for blog reviews from a blogspot sub domain blogger that doesn’t take Google PR into account?

I’m sure there are literally hundreds of others who would like to know. Kamila understands that if there are bloggers who use such a pay review system they might want to dissuade other members to sign up that would increase competition. But then there might be a referral reward in place, if so Kamila would of course quote the referrer in every case.

“Thanks for your help in advance,” says Kamila

An Optimum 200 Word Long Blog

Kamila after having entered a few online competitions is now waiting for the results. This is quite exciting, but she knows that here chances of winning are slim as all the competitions she entered were free and therefore many others entered them as well. She will have to wait for the results, but won’t hold her breath.

One of the good things about entering these competitions is that in many case Kamila’s blog gets back links for doing so. This to Kamila is a bit of a winner in itself if the competition blog is of good Google standing. Besides which entering a competition is certainly not as boring as completing a blog directory entry!

Entrecard drops haven’t been as prolific as it was a month ago, the reason is quite simply that the time spent on dropping could be spent on doing something more constructive such as writing a blog or entering a competition. The difference between getting 20 EC members dropping on her as opposed to 50 doesn’t make any difference to anything as 90% are drop and run folk.

You won’t have noticed that this blog is exactly an optimum 200 words long, this was Kamila’s plan.

Kamila's Thoughts On Alexa Targets and Competitions

Kamila has now has entered five competitions and waits for the results. They are all free and easy to enter with prizes ranging from hard cash to air miles. She thinks it won’t be long before she gets some sort of reward for her efforts if nothing else the law of averages dictates that if you persist and never give up something will come her way.

It is some surprise to know that many people just don’t bother with competitions and this give a greater chance for those who do make the effort. Opportunities for competitions have increased tremendously over the last few years especially online and blog competitions, this is good news to bloggers fro another avenue of traffic and earnings.

On another front it seems that Kamila has now settled nicely into a Google PR0 but her Alexa rank stands at 137457. Her aim is to get it under 120,000 over the next few months and under 100,000 by April next year. This will take a lot of work, not least more links can communication with blogging friends and regular posts.

Needless to say spare time in Bulgaria is now increasing with most of the harvests in and food and fuel stocks stored for the coming winter. Come November there will be three months of mega time to kill and that will be spent blogging on these cold and freezing months with plenty of good food and drink on the kitchen table.

“Hope you are all in a cheerful disposition,” says Kamila

More Money, Traffic And Smiles From Adgitize

It just gets better each month with Adgitize. Here are the last four months payments made to Kamila’s comrades:

Payment Date: 6/7/2009 12:00:00 AM
Payment Amount: $10.90
Payment Type: PayPal

Payment Date: 7/8/2009 12:00:00 AM
Payment Amount: $23.19
Payment Type: PayPal

Payment Date: 8/5/2009 12:00:00 AM
Payment Amount: $23.71 Payment Type: PayPal

Payment Date: 9/7/2009 12:00:00 AM
Payment Amount: $25.99
Payment Type: PayPal

This month was a whopping $25.99. If you take off the $14 payment made for being an advertiser this leaves $11.99 clear profit plus over 100 visits a day!

Kamila can’t state strong enough how good Adgitize is for traffic and profit with less than 15 minutes a day spend on clicking on 51 other Adgitize advertisers in conjunction with EC drops.
If you aren’t with Adgitize then there must be a good reason why you aren’t Kamila can’t think of one and she has though good and hard!

If you want to see how it works or sign up, which is free and easy, click on the box below. Well worth seeing other bloggers who have giving good feedback on Adgitize.




By the way, after getting a PR3, it lasted 6 days then Kamila fell to a PR2 for a few days beyond that. Now it has gone back to PR0! Crazy! Crazy! Crazy! Google, but Kamila has been well past caring what PR she is for quite a while now.

Finally, there is still time to enter Cornyman's 1,000,00 EC competition. Just look at Kamila's previous post!

“I Hope you are all still enjoying the warmth of Summer”, says Kamila

Chance To Win 4000 EC Credits - Just Comment

Before Kamila starts anything, she is all confused as from being a PR2 then apparently sandboxed by Google to a PR0. She now finds herself with a PR3! This is a complete mystery throughout all the changes, which leads Kamila into thinking that Google really is beyond confusing.

How long her PR3 lasts is another matter. It could be a few days or weeks. Who knows, or more to the point who cares? Kamila has gone beyond that now. At least she might get a few decent Pay Per Post jobs while it last!

Kamila asks is you can check out these past articles from her blog and give some comments on them. Kamila has been reflecting on the year and sometimes forgets how much learning has gone on in that time. I was such a good time reflecting on what has happened and she hopes you can enjoy them as well.

This is in conjunction with Cornymans Money-Blog and the 1,000,00 EC competition that starts today. can win 4.000 ECs, for each comment with 3 to 4 sentences. You need to read the rules first which can be found on Cornymans Money-Blog. Kamila hopes you can put some constructive comments for her where you have a chance to win 4000 EC credits this week.

A summary of the prizes are that the first 40 comments will get each 75 EC + 2 members can win 500 EC - (totalling 4.000 EC)

Wishing you all the best all the time along with good luck

'Chins Up'. Says Kamila

Kamila was looking for a way of getting her PR2 back, but then she thought, why should she. Nothing has changed with her blog, her traffic in fact if anything it is improving very week. All that has happened is that Google have assessed her as having a blog that has no gravity in the world of the Internet. Only Google, no one else!

So now Kamila will carry on as normal, she will not be bullied into changing her ways, why should she. She is not after high search engine listing, but just writing a blog that can earn a little income for her up keep.

To all those who have been sandboxed like Kamila, don’t let this put you off, you have not done anything wrong. In a blogosphere environment there is one party who think they are God, but they aren’t.

“Chins up“, says Kamila

Kamila Sandboxed By Google

Kamila today found out that Google have been quite unfair with now making her PR0 from her recent PR2. Technically it is called being sandboxed Kamila thinks. She can only assume that this was from doing a couple of Pay Per Post blogs and nothing else. This mean that more Pay Per Post jobs are going to be like gold dust and pay even less with her PR value at zero!

Not good news, but Kamila is upbeat at least her Alexa rank is well under 200k and improving.

On another front, there is 100,000 EC credits plus $20 (from a kind donor) for anyone who wants to sell a digital camera. Kamila wants to take more pictures of herself for her website and the current camera’s lens is flawed. If anyone is interested please go to the Entrecard Forum and look up 'Physical Goods' where further details can be found.

A short blog today from Kamila who has to now try and look for a new source of income. How ironic that yesterday’s post was about looking for other sources of income from blogging.

Thoughts Of New Ways Of Making More Money By Blogging

Kamila hope everyone had a great weekend - She did popping peppers on the barbecue!

Back to blogging mode, Kamila has looked again at how you can make more inroads to making money online other than Pay Per Post jobs that a detrimental to your blog in Google assessing PR. Kamila has seen quite clearly this puts so many people off that building their blogs up to qualify for posts then see all their hard work undone isn’t worth the effort.

With AdBrite and AdSense thematic systems that pay for being clicked on, Kamila has found that you need massive traffic to get anywhere near enough just to cover Internet overheads. Kamila’s team has made nearly $200, but it has taken near on 18 months to earn that on AdSense. The AdBrite was experimented on for a couple of months and Kamila earned less than a dollar, no good at all and all down to lack of traffic. Even with hundreds of EC droppers each day, this kind of traffic does not venture into AdSense or AdBrite systems as 99% are drop and run traffic.

So without major traffic and being hoodwinked into thinking that Entrecard traffic does the job, there is a dead end for the vast majority of bloggers trying to earn this way. Other avenues have to be around and the trend nowadays for decent traffic is competitions. Mr Cornyman (Martin) with his blog http://cornys-moneypage.blogspot.com/ and the 1,000,000 EC competition has taken the bull by the horns by initiating the biggest competition to date and it will be very interesting to see what kind of results he gets on this blog. He is using Entrecard as the pivotal centre of the competition, nothing wrong with that as Entrecard encourages it, naturally.

There are many other way to make a bit more blogging and Kamila know you have to be quite original in though and almost unique with ideas that might work. She does know that the wheel can be invented time and time again and with this an old method maybe that had become obsolete a few years ago with be re introduced with a new hat and take off again. A year ago the award chain blogging was the top, this has died now, this will of course come back to popularity in the future, but not as we know it.

In the meantime, if you are a EC member give Mr Cornyman some support with sponsoring EC credits, Ad space, hard dosh, or other prizes that might want to give away. Kamila has given ad space and 5000 EC credits and feels good about it, not just from getting good backlinks either! His site is here Cornys Moneypage Blog or just click on the box below for details of the competition.

Happy blogging as always!

Drop And Run - A Natural Process In Blogging

Kamila understands why people are moaning about drop and run bloggers on Entrecard and Adgitize? The ‘bounce’ factor is a concern to many who fear Google will think their blogs are not keeping people’s attention. But the extent of criticism Kamila feels is unfair.

There is a demand to just click for traffic by drop and run tactics and that’s one option many people take especially if their blogs desperately need traffic. If bloggers don’t want this type of traffic, (bouncing traffic) then they can quite simply withdraw their membership from communities that churn this type of traffic out. There is no point just moaning about all that does is create a bad feeling and alienate bloggers it is better to just move on. On Entrecard this will probably change soon though.

Kamila puts her hands up and admits she does sometimes run through some blogs on a drop and run basis, but she dwells on those that create interest for her. It is natural that good blogs will get less of a, ‘bounce’ type traffic. Most bloggers will pause, read, comment and perhaps interact with interesting elements on some blogs they find that distracts the when they are clicking through. Then others they will just click through. There is no point in dwelling on a blog that you have no interest in. She can’t see what all the fuss and bad feeling is.

There will always be a certain percentage of bloggers who will just be there for quick clicks, but for Entrecard now to put a detection system in on drop and run bloggers so they won’t get credits Kamila feels is a bit extreme. If blogs surfed aren’t of interest to bloggers they just won’t bother visiting them after initial assessment in the first instance.

In all instances Kamila will continue to use the same method of dropping on those who have dropped on her and many will be paused upon if Kamila finds them drawing her in. Others she will just bypass, will she click on the latter if there is no credit involved? Mmmmm, knowing Kamila she will because she is that type of camel, but other bloggers, well we’ll see.

"HAVE A LOVELY WEKEND YA ALL!" - Says Kamila

EC Toolbox And Firefox Compatibility Problem Solved

Kamila had a problem yesterday choosing between Mozilla Firefox 3.5 or EC toolbar, both very good innovations, but a choice had to be made at that time. A message was sent straight away from Kamila’s friend Cornyman (picture to the right) to tell here that there was a new version of the EC toolbar that runs with Firefox 3.5 and that she might want to try it.

Well try it Kamila did and it worked really well. So now she has the best of both worlds with firefox and Entrecard working together to provide a more effective and user-friendly system.

Kamila is a very happy camel right now, but not solely because she has her blogging wish list fulfilled but that there are blogging friend that are there to help.

“People who have time for others are the best kind of people,” Kamila says. And on that note Kamila now is on task with some surfing whilst dropping using the EC toolbar!

A PS from Kamila to say that the EC toolbar she was recommended and now uses can be found here - > www.topclanz.net

Follower Widgets On Blogs - A Great Link Back System ANd More

Fresh from an extended weekend in the village watering melons and tending to potatoes and sweet corn, Kamila is back in the office kitchen now tending to her blog.

She has made a great realisation this morning when surfing through some blogs. She found that she had been mentioned in a friends blog: cornymans-blogreviews.blogspot.com. This was such a pleasant surprise with the nice things that Cornyman had said. He has given SEO advice to Kamila before now so he is very well versed in SEO matters with many other blogs to his name:
The One Minute Guide
All about babies and kids
Cornymans Money-Blog

This aside, Kamila has now added a section to her blog on the right hand side column. Why she didn’t think of this before is a mystery. Perhaps with so many things to think of it was a basic oversight. There is a section now for followers, (called Kamila’s Kind Friends) where you can view new posts each time they are made, this is through Google’s own “Friends Connect”.

This will now give new back links both ways, Kamila’s PR2 blog to those who follow and back to Kamila from friends’ blogs. In Kamila’s own words, “A great and simple way to add back links and make friends as well!”

Kamila now looks for the same system in other bloggers and follows them herself if she likes the blog. How many times has Kamila seen a blog she likes, but then can’t remember where it was? Loads! This can’t happen now with the follower widget in place. And far better than having a RSS subscription clogging up your email inbox!

“Happy days are here again!” says Kamila. “I love Mondays!”

Kamila Opts Back Into AdSense Mode For Good Reason

It has been a month now with Adbrite and Kamila is not happy at all with either the funds she gets or some of the ads that are put on there. At time there was impromptu ads that popped up and readers had to click on the top right hand side to get rid of it. Kamila humbly apologises for this. She did actually opt out of that kind of ad on application, but it obviously got through somehow.

It is now back on home ground to good old AdSense. She may only get a few cents a day, but at least the ads are reliable and there is a chance of a bigger funds from clicks every now and again. With Adbrite it was 1 cent a day and that wasn’t going to improve.

Kamila knew that you need lots of traffic to attract ads that pay more and that just wasn’t going to happen with Adbrite.

“Oh well!” says Kamila, “At least I tried.”

Kamila Secures Another PR5 Back Link

Kamila always has that ‘feel good factor’ when she submits here blog into a directory and gets accepted. Today is one of those days and it is an even better feeling know that the directory called the Super Blog directory is a PR5.

Many directories just accept Kamila blog link without much vetting, surely that is a sign that the directory doesn‘t care too much about quality blogs it lists. Kamila still applies for all directories she can lay her hands on, but quality directories are more likely to get you visitors.
