~ TAG ENDS HERE ~

To be honest, I didn't start blogging for the sole purpose of publishing my creative works (not that I have any) or to put my personal life on the internet. I am a rather private person though sociable. I mean I am friendly and likes to make friends but I am still a little reluctant to write very personal stuff online. I started this blog as a means to communicate with my members when I was running a PaidToClick site. I had long closed the site now.

By the time I have decided to close the site, I had a few months and perhaps 20-30 posts by then. I felt that it was a waste to delete this blog as it was named in such a way to be open ended and I can write whatever I want to from then on. I had Adsense ads only from the beginning and I used to put PaidToRead and PaidtoClick banners on the blog. I still have one or two small ones at the bottom. Other than that, since I've learn a few more sites that pay bloggers for posting and also learn some tips at blogging community such as BlogCatalog, I am more serious about earning through blogging now.

This blog is now sponsored by PayPerPost, Blogsvertise, Bloggerwave, and Smorty. I am still on the search for more sites that I can earn from and if any readers and probloggers who are experienced and would like to share more of such similar sites, please be so kind to let me know.

The earnings are used for paying the internet bills for sure and if there is surplus would be channeled to the family's monthly expenses.

* There is only one rule that I would break for this tag and that is to tag another two publishers. I don't know anyone for now but will list them when I find them.

  1. I've posted about it.
    I don't know if it's acceptable.

    It's a touchy subject at the time.

  2. Hi Serena!
    Thanks for doing this meme..and sharing your story.
    I was like you. I did not start blogging (in 2003) for money but rather just to communicate with family and friends..I only started doing sponsored posts late August this year. It does feel good earning while blogging, isn't it? :)

    I wish you more opps and good earnings. I will not only add you on my list of participants but also on my blogroll..I'd love to visit you again.

    Terimakasih!
