A Problogger Mom

I am always on the lookout for legitimate ways to save money and/or make money online. I’ve recently come across an online site that will help you save money when you shop online, and I wanted to share it with my readers. The site is www.deallocker.com and it is all about saving money online with free online coupons, and sharing these deals with your friends. They offer online coupon codes and discount codes for all the popular online stores, as well as for specialty niche shopping sites.

This is a test post, using problogger Paula Neal Mooney’s tried and true method for drawing massive visitors to your blog. Don’t worry, I will also be providing lots of relevant information on the recent California earthquake and  information on Los Angeles earthquakes in general.

Here is a link to the Southern California Earthquake Center and here is a link to the NY Times article on the August 9th earthquake in the Los Angeles area. Many people may also be interested in the massive 1994 Los Angeles earthquake that registered as a 6.6 on the Richter scale.

This is a sponsored post.If you are trying to get more incoming hits to your blog, another unique way to advertise your site is by using car magnets. I have seen more and more of these on cars lately, advertising everything from preschools to dog walkers, so why not your blog? I always keep a note pad in the car with me since I am a list maker by nature, and I am always jotting things down on it that I need to look up on the web, from houses for sale in my neighborhood, to businesses I want to check out online.

I last posted my online earnings on June 21st. Now that August is here, I decided it is time to update you all. At the last report, my total online earnings via blogging, advertising, affiliates, pay to click type sites, etc was $128.90 for the month of May and the first 3 weeks of June.

As of today, my total is $409.15, which means in the last 5 weeks or so I have made an additional $280.25. This does NOT include an addtional $75 I have earned for referrals to Payperpost. I will only receive this money when each of those referrals follows through with writing a paid post and gets paid for it 30 days later. But if you would like to include it, that would make my total online earnings since May $484.15, or just $355.25 for the last 5 weeks or so.

Whoo hoo! A new fun thing to play with! I signed up for Sponsored Reviews last week before leaving on our camping trip, and just found an approval notice in my inbox! I’m looking forward to figuring out how that site works as I have only heard good things about it and that you can earn a bit more from them than you can with other paid posting type sites.

I also just signed this blog up with Payperpost, as I have finally reached the point of having over 10 approved posts on my old blog.
