Agloco

Everywhere you look on the internet right now, you see ads for Agloco. What it is?
This is what they say about themselves on their website.

AGLOCO’s story is simple:

Do you realize how valuable you are? Advertisers, search providers and online retailers are paying billions to reach you while you surf. How much of that money are you making? NONE!

AGLOCO thinks you deserve a piece of the action.

AGLOCO collects money from those companies on behalf of its members. (For example, Google currently pays AOL 10 cents for every Google search by an AOL user. And Google still has enough profit to pay $1.6 billion dollars for YouTube, an 18-month old site full of content that YouTube’s users did not get paid for!

AGLOCO will work to get its Members their share of this and more.

AGLOCO is building a new form of online community that they call an Economic Network. They are not only paying Members their fair share, but they’re building a community that will generate the kind of fortune that YouTube made. But instead of that wealth making only a few people rich, the entire community will get its share.

It doesn't cost anything to join, so I figure I have nothing to lose. You never know when one of these ideas will be the next "big thing" like Google or Yahoo.

Pay to Post

It's 24 degrees out right now. We got another 2" or so of snow with more predicted for tonight and tomorrow. At least it's warmer!

I just signed up with another pay-to-post forum site called Dorm Check. People on MyLot and on Dorm Check are comparing the two sites, and, of course, asking which is better. I think for $ paid per post, MyLot is better if your responses are of a decent quality. That means, not just yes, no or I don't know type answers. I only have 71 posts and my earnings are at $2.89. I know, nothing to write home about but the amount of work I put in isn't that great either. I check out the discussions while I'm doing other things, see if there's anything that catches my eye and maybe reply to a couple of discussions. Every now and then I'll start a discussion if something pops into my head.

Dorm Check has multiple ways to earn. They only pay 1 cent per post so to get the same $2.89 at Dorm Check, from posting alone, I'd have to have 289 posts! That's a lot of posts! Quality doesn't matter as much for getting paid although other members get upset with spam type answers so you really do need to give a decent reply. They have grab bags where you can win money or advertising, you can get paid to do google searches, you get paid to log in (not much but something), get paid to click on links and you can buy referrals and earn from those too.

I like the way MyLot is laid out over Dorm Check. Why not just do both? You can make a little at each one.

Autosurfs

Yesterday and today have been in the double digits! It's 15 degrees out now as I type. Much better than the -3 high we had just a few days ago. The horses seem to be weathering the weather pretty well with their new blankets.

I joined 2 new autosurfs. Adsmania and CEP Coast. Adsmania is run by PHP Mike and a site built by members for members. It has several plans you can choose from and is the first guaranteed autosurf! You can also manage all your surf sites from your member's area and post in the member run autosurf and hyip monitor.

CEP Coast is run by Trevor. It's an adshare site and you have the opportunity to earn 130% of your advertising purchase by viewing other advertisers websites.

I have also started a new "Work at Home" Lens.  It's kind of fun to do and, along with my various business interests,  you can find some fun places to shop and even interact with some of the modules!   You may even want to start your own Lens!

Take the Internet Back

It's -3F outside right now.  That's warm compared to last night.  It got down to -19F last night for a low!  Yikes! Two of the horses were shivering this morning when we went to 
feed.  I tied 2 afghans to the miniature horse last night and he was still shivering.  We put him out
right away in the sun and he started to warm up.   We put another blanket on Kasha (our Arab mix)
got her fed and put her out too.  Everybody was good when we got there tonight but Chester's 
afghans were falling off, so we took them off and I put one of my old coats on him and zipped it up
the back.  It didn't zip all the way but it should be enough to stay on him.   They are predicting
-13 tonight and then it's finally supposed to get above zero tomorrow.   

The next Microsoft or Google?  
WOULD YOU LIKE TO OWN A PIECE OF THE NEXT BIG INTERNET COMPANY?? OWNERSHIP!! FOR FREE??
WOULD YOU ALSO LIKE TO EARN SOME NICE PROFITS ALONG THE WAY - WHILE YOU WATCH YOUR COMPANY GROW AND EXPAND? AGAIN ... FOR FREE!!
HOW ABOUT IF WE GIVE YOU $10.00 IN YOUR ACCOUNT TO GET YOU STARTED?

Check out Take the Internet Back. It's free to join and they never ask for more money. You have nothing to lose.

Some of my programs

So far today the high has been almost 3 degrees F.  We are going to get put into the freezer over
the next few days as the lows are predicted to be 12belowF at night with a high on Sunday of about
0 to 1 above.  Wind chills are predicted to be up to 35 below F at night.  Brrrrrr!!!  We have 4 horses and so far everyone is managing to stay warm but I'm going to blanket everybody tomorrow night except for the mini.  I don't have a blanket for him.    This is great weather for staying in by the fire with a hot up of coffee or tea.  I'm thinking soups would be good over the next few days.

There certainly is no shortage of hawkers out there promising us instant wealth if we just try their product.    It's probably true that some people make a lot of money with each one of them too! However, I tend not to make much from anything that requires referrals.  If you're like me and need to find ways to make money that don't require referrals then stick around.  

MyLot is a website that pays you to post.  You can reply to discussions, start your own discussions.  You can upload pictures and make new friends.  You won't get rich from this but you can make a little extra money and have fun while doing it.  While they pay for referrals, you don't need them in order to earn.  

E-Jury pays you to be on their "mock jury".  Lawyers sometimes put together mock juries to see what people are thinking in regards to their case before they go to trial.  You can sign up to be on the jury and get paid for filling out their questionnaire.  I've only gotten one case so far but they paid right away to my paypal account.



Autosurfs
are another popular way to make money on the net.  These are much more risky however.    You also have to have some "seed" money to get started.  There aren't many good, paying autosurfs out there right now.    You buy advertising and you get paid a certain amount for surfing or watching other's ads.    The rule for autosurfs is get your seed money out quickly and play with the profits.  Also don't use money you can't afford to lose!

InstantAutoPaySurf is a new autosurf paying 2% for 75 days.

My website, blogging and Other Stuff

I'm no great writer, as you will quickly see from reading this, but I thought I'd jump on the blogging bandwagon anyway.  I've been looking for a long time for a way to earn some extra money from home to help supplement our income and I've tried many things over the years and wasted a lot of money in the process.

You can actually get paid to blog!  Sounds pretty cool, so I thought I'd give it a try and maybe this can help someone else start making some extra money from home too!  I named my blog Pot Luck because you never know what you'll find here.  While earning
some extra money from home is one of my goals, it's not the only thing in life so you may hear
about my family, or the critters, or our church, or maybe find a recipe here and there.   

I have a website with some of my businesses on it.  I have several businesses and each one makes at least a little money.    My husband and I make horseshoe nail crosses wrapped with colored wire.  
I love to crochet  and have a page for some of the things I've made.  

I am a kitchen consultant for The Pampered Chef and my husband helps me with this business too.  He carries my crate and helps with cleanup while I do the cooking and take the orders.  

LegitOnlineJobs is full of great info for making money from home.   They even have  listings for 
real telecommuting data entry jobs!
