Okay, it’s not as if the internet isn’t flooded with social communities. In fact, they are coming out our ears. I know it, and you know it. Trying to stay in touch with all of them is – well let’s just say it – a nightmare.

That’s why I almost passed on the latest invitation I received, but something caught my eye.

Does the word “money” mean anything to you?

EchoLoops has an interesting premise. The email I received stated the fact that Facebook and their like are making millions, and that means we are the ones making them so popular. EchoLoops, with its growing traffic numbers, is willing to advance your rankings in the search engines (by being a part of the social circle, these things get indexed fairly easily and you can be there, too). They also mention “rebate checks” for shopping, along with combining the power of Facebook, YouTube, games, shopping, etc.

Now, I haven’t a clue where this will go since I do not (unfortunately) possess a crystal ball. I have filled out my profile in much greater detail then several other spots I thought I would haunt. I’m working on the angle that the more you say, the better things go. We shall see. In the meantime…

Signing up is free. And if you’re just a tad tired of any particular circle that’s been running you around in circles, EchoLoops just may be your answer.

Enjoy!

I just visited Business Sphere while working through those money-making “spikes” in CMFAds.

The post that caught my eye was a discussion on Entercard and whether or not the 300 drops per day should be lessened to 150. The question being would that decrease bounce rates and increase quality as one visits someone else’s blog?

That answer remains a mystery, but I thought my own comment was worth repeating for those visiting this blog (and that includes bloggers, web site owners and affiliate marketers alike).

It reads: (more…)

Granted this post is aimed at bloggers and those who would like be become successful bloggers, but it’s also one that will show you that by combining your efforts, you can make money online.

This is not a quick way to pay the bills, however, if you have never proven to yourself, not once, that you can make money well here’s a good way to start.

And, the wonderful added bonus is… you’re driving traffic to someone’s web site, and (if you list yourself) you, too, will receive a flood of traffic in return.

So on the positive side your traffic count goes way up (thus way down in Alexa and those entities out there counting traffic stats) and you have that must-have action – the chance to put your blog in front of a real person’s eyes (so be ready and make sure your business plan is clear-cut for other’s to grasp when they get there).

On another positive note, you can (more…)

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Eye-Fi. All opinions are 100% mine.

I love when I come across something that is timely and of particular interest to my family and me. Just the other day, I took a photo card from my husband, put it into the always-used port reader and what happened…?? Absolutely nothing. We had never had trouble before downloading photos, why all of a sudden did the USB slot “stop working?” It just didn’t make any sense.

Well after much fiddling around, and looking for this and that adapter, we were finally able to get the photos off the card and onto the computer (but it was really frustrating!). To add insult to injury, these memories will most likely sit forever on my C Drive, never printed and eventually forgotten.

So when I came across the Eye-Fi it really caught my attention!

Now here’s a way to literally change how your upload your photos for friends and family, along with a unique way to store them!

Okay, so maybe I’m a tad behind the times (I’ve been really busy, that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it), but it wasn’t until today while reading Mighty Oak Marketing’s latest ezine issue that I heard about the upcoming “Google Wave.”

It’s not available, yet, but according to the preview site (which says very little but has this cool video shown below), they are looking to pull together a massive amount of social media marketing and collaboration tools. Just the thing for Google fans in particular, and (perhaps?) marketers.

Here’s an excerpt from Google (also compliments of Mighty Oak Marketing so I didn’t have to dig around myself), that may or may not explain what you have to look forward to: (more…)
