It’s hard to believe that the vast virtual world we call the Internet is just a few decades old, fledgling by any means we look at it. It’s also hard to believe the rapid advances that have been made in an exceedingly short period of time. I don’t think the creators of the World Wide Web would have envisioned the uses that it is being put to today, that thousands of people are able to make money sitting at home by just applying their brains a little bit.

If you earn a significant amount of or all your income online, get ready for some really envious looks and eager enquiries. People are bound to want to get on the moneymaking bandwagon too, and this is where the danger lies. Yes, I’m talking about the future of Internet marketing, a subject that’s interesting and intriguing to anyone who’s even just heard about it. With more and more people lining up for a share in the pie (some of them may not get any but they want to at least try) because of the low investment amount, the almost nil capital cost (except for your computer and Internet connection), and the sensational nature of the business, it’s inevitable that more and more of them are susceptible to failure.

After serving Nuffnang ads in my blog for about 7 months, finally I get my first cheque from Nuffnang! It’s kinda difficult for my blogs to make money with Nuffnang because only my make money online blog received metered campaign from Nuffnang, other than this, I earn nothing. I can only say that my Adsense earning is much more better than Nuffnang earning, because it’s kinda difficult for my blogs to get clicks for Nuffnang ads. I can only earn from metered campaigns, but currently I’ve no metered campaign in any of my blogs. I don’t worry about that because I know I have better choice of advertisement to put in my blogs.

So, here is my cheque that I received this evening. I’d been requested to cashout my earning at 2nd Jan ‘09, I received a notification email from HSBC bank about my cheque at 3rd March ‘09, and the cheque reached my door step at 10th March ‘09 which is today. It takes about 2 months from request payment to receive cheque.

It was about a week ago, I’ve read an article in a forum and discussed about what was the other monetization method instead of using Google Adsense, Nuffnang, and etc. One of the money told us about his experience with an advertising marketplace, it’s called BuySellAds. BuySellAds is an advertising marketplace for those small to medium size blog or website to sell their banners. Blogs or websites with low traffics and low ranking (Pagerank, alexa and etc.), they find difficulty to get an advertiser, so BuySellAds helps them to make money online by helping them to sell banner ads.

A week ago, I gave it a try by registering and placing the code into my blog. although I have my own direct advertisers, perhaps BuySellAds can bring me more advertisers from different countries. After 2days, it was 5th March ‘09, I received an email from BuySellAds told me that I’d sold a banner ads in my blog. I was shocked that I just placed the code for only 2 days and they sold one of my banner.
