Earn With Cash Crate

Cash Crate is very much like Swagbucks.

Earning with this site is relatively easy, and the FAQ claims that some members are earning $1,000 a month on referrals alone.

Some of the ways to earn with Cash Crate include: completing surveys, playing games, watching videos, and claiming "coupon codes".

The coupon codes are codes that are found on Facebook and Twitter.

If you are comfortable with Swagbucks, Cash Crate will be a good addition to your portfolio.

Whoopsie! Major blogging set-back

Image via WikipediaI am still so new to all of the blogging world. Nothing ever seems to go simply and smoothly. Live and learn. For the life of me, I cannot figure out the ftp part of it all.
I wanted to switch hosts for my pet related blog. I had no idea how to download the blog's contents and upload them. Some tech assistant helped but it didn't go as smoothly as it should have and we lost it all. So, for the next week or so, I will be rebuilding that blog from the ground floor. A set-back yes, but it is a huge savings in hosting fees and I can now look at beginning another blog.
It's all a learning experience and each time, following Amy's Niche Blogger plan, rebuilding isn't as confusing as starting from the beginning.
Anyone have any ftp experience to share??!!
Blog on!

Monthly Earnings Report - April 2011

April Earnings
(Payments Received throughout the month of April)
Amazon Affiliate – $36.12 (Jan. and Feb.)
Squidoo - $12.01 (Feb. earnings)


This does not include any venues that have not met the minimum balance for payout. The balances for AdSense and others are still below the payment threshold for this month.

In May, I will be focusing more on the AdSense, CashCrate and InboxDollars through ads, blogging and participating in offers more diligently. Also, working more on the niche blogs. I can be prepared with keyword phrase research, post writing, product selections, etc for when I can afford to purchase a new domain.

Making Money Online- What are my goals?

I am a stay at home mom of 1 active pre-teen whom we home-school. 

My husband is retired due to a severe illness and back problems.

I cannot work outside the home due to having at this point uncontrolled seizures. It is my choice to not drive, so I don't qualify for disability.

My main job at home is sewing, knitting and crocheting. I sew cloth dolls, doll clothes, crochet and knit doll clothes, bed dolls and baby sweater sets.

My goal for working online is to supplement my day job with an active and passive income through various venues. My financial goal is to work up to $500 a month by the end of 2011.

I do not have the money go at this aggressively. More aggressive measures will bring in more results more quickly, but right now I just can't do that.

Here are a few free to join ventures that are earning a little bit which is helping greatly in getting started in self-hosting blogging.

Squidoo - Write about your passions, knowledge or write up a sales page promoting a product you love and get paid to do just that. You are also paid a percentage of the revenue your lens (page) earns through ads provided by Squidoo.

Hubpages - Very similar to Squidoo, but you are paid directly from AdSense, Kontera and the other ads appearing on your pages. I started with a hubpage about tropical fish.

CashCrate -  You get paid for completing free and trial offers, daily surveys, play games, watch videos, check in, and several other activities. Minimum cash payout set at $20 via check (or direct deposit to silver+ members).

SwagBucks -Earn "SwagBucks" for using their search bars, doing daily polls,playing games and other activities. Earned swagbucks can be redeemed for cash, giftcards, and prizes.
