Earn Extra Bucks from Firefox Referrals

Wow! I have been using Firefox for a few weeks now and I'm hooked on it. It's faster... way faster than IE. It has the same look and feel as IE but it's definitely better than IE. I tried Apple's Safari and it was cool but I found it difficult to navigate thru the menus and options. FireFox is avaialable for Windows, Linux and Macs. It has built-in security features for secure browsing. Whether it's annoying pop-ups or weird phishing activities, FireFox will take care of it. I would strongly recommend you to read the CNET Reviews before you download Mozilla Firefox.


Ok! Here's the fun part. You can actually add cute colorful Firefox referral buttons to your blogs/sites and earn $1 everytime someone downloads Firefox thru your referral link. I've already integrated Firefox referral links on my sites and blogs and earned $4. That isn't too bad, though. It's not easy to earn money from Firefox referrals. You have to persuade your blogs/sites visitors to download Firefox. It's not just Firefox your visitors download that makes you earn some extra bucks. It's actually the Google Toolbar that is pre-installed with Firefox. Makes sense? That's what Google is paying us for. All you need to do is add referral links, write briefly about Firefox and you're done. Don't forget to add CNET reveiws like I did in this post to your blog/site posts. It just adds a little more credibility to your blog/site content. I can't wait to get my adsense check. Oh yeh! WidgetBucks check is coming soon, too. Yay! I am excited.

Make Bucks with WidgetBucks

I apologize for the late blog post. I've been super busy. This post is about WidgetBucks. I put WidgetBucks widget on Adnets and earned 21 cents in first ten minutes. No, I didn't click any of the ads myself. :) Yeh! It was one of my blog visitors that was interested in buying some tech stuff featured on that cute widget you see on the Adnets blog. WidgetBucks will actually terminate your account if they see any of those fishy activities. Onething I really like about WidgetBucks is its simplicity. It is similar to Adsense but instead of text-based ads you get to display neat widgets that show image ads with brief information about the product.WidgetBucks lets you customize your widget colors, sizes and categories or you can use MerchSense that is a contextual algorithm engine that shows ads relevent to your site- content. Yes! You can run WidgetBucks with Adsense or any other ad programs and you can put UNLIMITED widgets on your site or blog. There's no limit at all. But I wouldn't go crazy putting widgets all over my blogs because it would annoy the visitors.WidgetBucks has an excellent referral program. You earn 5 percent from the referred person's commision. I've not earned any referral money yet but it would be sweet if anyone of my blog visitors clicked the highlighted WidgetBucks link or the widget located right below the blog archive. You get paid monthly and minimum account payout limit is $50. I need another 10 bucks to get my first WidgetBucks check. Hopefully soon! :>) You really need to give it a try. It is worth it. I'll post my future WidgetBucks earnings soon. So, please go ahead and sign up for WidgetBucks now. Feel free to email me or post comments if you have any questions.
