Ive been thinking about how I can redeem myself for being absent for so long and at the same time, I was watching this program on TV and I thought I should give you an idea about the World's Richest Teens and how they make money whether online or offline. Here it goes. . .

People Magazine views showbiz as one of the premier ways where teens can make money, lots of money. They named the top three teen money makers and they are the following:

• Dan Radcliffe - Who doesnt know him? This Harry Potter star maybe has enough money to make his own HogWarts school. His assets are estimated to be worth at least $50 million dollars. Now, hows that for a money making kid?
• Sam Branson - This guy is my personal favorite (in a finance perspective kinda way). He's the son of the billionaire and owner of Virgin International, Richard Branson. If I was given a chance to read anyone's mind, theres no doubt im choosing Richard's.
  
• Andrew Bynum - This injured laker just missed the championship run of Los Angeles and is now starting to straighten back in for the next season. He's one of the richest of his kind. Think about this: When the Lakers are in a club, off all his team mates, only he is not allowed drink legally (which im sure he violates alot).
  

These are just the view teenagers who have been in the "money train". Im sure would like to be aboard that train using ways to make money online. Would you?

Donald Trump. Hmmm. . . Where will I start?

Perhaps the most recent event of this bad hair day billionaire (my envy got the best of me, sorry donald) was his "fight" in the WWE. He was represented by a wresler against Vince Mcmahon's bet and the loser? Well, co-incidentally, would have his hair shaved off in front of some 80,000 crowd in Detroit. Of course his bet won the match but imagine how he would look like if he lost the match? God, that would be the epitome of a perfect pay-per-view. How do you think he would look like?

Anyways, before this blog turns into a gossip blog, the last time I checked payperpost, I found an offer that really caught my attention. I noticed that the first two offers were from the sites of Donald Trump himself.

Here's the screenshot I made:

(Click for clearer image)

What does this tell us?

Blogging is gaining more importance.
More and more people are realizing that blogs comprise an integral part of building online reputation. Even Donald Trump's employees are recognizing its benefits and they recognize that blogs will soon be a necessity than a marketing edge.

More opportunities for bloggers to make money
As this trend will continue to rise in the coming years, I am firm in my belief that bloggers will continue to rise and in effect, competition will get even fiercer and along with this change will be the increase in online income opportunities for bloggers. Still dont have a blog? Why dont you subscribe to my blog and i'll teach you how to blog and earn.

Less bad hair days for Donald Trump
Well, this is not really part of this review but i really think my envy got the best of me today. However, if everything will turn out right (it probably will), maybe our friend would have the initiative to take a break from collecting wives and maybe spend more time for a hair makeover.

What do you guys say?

Online poker have far been under a very good advertising development through the blogosphere. In fact, I have come across numerous blogs that caters solely for these services and you know what, they earn a very sufficient income but can teens make money online from online gaming?

Lets take one of the betting facilities online and find out. Shall we?

Bet365 is, in my opinion, one of the best there is. Aside from offering the typical online casino, a dedicated section for interactive games and sportsbook betting facility, they offer an unprecedented one-wallet system that makes your betting experience convenient, comfortable and easier.

Going back to the question whether teenagers can really earn money through online games, I have to say no. Why? Simply because teens are, under normal circumstances, not adept to this betting facilities. They should be going to movies, making friends as many as possible and maybe find romance but never betting. Id rather stick to blogging than take huge risks in betting my hard earned money.

Disclosure: This is a sponsored review and I got paid writing this post.

Yes, google pays teenagers!

How can I be sure? Well, I got paid myself. I guess that alone is enough to ease your doubt. If youre still not convinced, why dont you subscribe to my blog so youll get your proof every single day? *wink*

Anyways, I wrote about my eagerness to claim my google money (check it here) and yesterday, I finally had the chance to receive this payment and boy, I have a story to tell you guys. I was on a western union outlet to claim my payment and at first, everybody was very casual. There were quite a number of people there, majority were of course filipinos and there were two american males with their wives. So, I went to the teller (she was around 45, lonely and from the looks of it, she never had a BF since birth. haha!) and told her I wanted to receive my money and she told me in a very strict and somewhat angry tone to get a yellow form and fill it up completely and so I patiently obeyed. After completing the form, I handed it to her and the moment she saw the sender, she said "Uy, Google!" (Hey, its from google!). This was the moment that I started smiling.

She asked me lengthy questions on how, when, where I got the money and I told her im a blogger and that among others, we earn from google. She enthusiastically told me she was interested to blog and at this point, I was thinking about her possible niche and one idea struck me; Grave Digging! hahaha! Yes, she looked like that. You get me, im sure!

Among her numerous comments, she told me "uy, ilang million ka nag search sa google para mabayaran?" (How many million times did you use the search box of google to get paid?) and at this point in time, friends, I wanted to burst into laughter.

And so, to make the story short, she wanted to blog but she just couldnt. This experience really proved to me that blogging is not for everyone (and for every age for this matter).

How did google change your life today?

Almost three months ago, I wrote a post about finally switching to adsense and foregoing bidvertiser for alot of reasons. You can check out my post why I trashed bidvertiser away and right now, I think I made one of the best decisions in my whole blogging career. Of course you remember my post about a filipino earning $19,000 a month on adsense alone. Right? Well, im not on that lever just yet. *wink*

I got paid by google adsense!

Yes, thats right lads! I just found out last night that my payment was ready even before christmas day (it was ready for pickup on the 24th). I opted to receive my payment through western union since Its alot faster than checks which would take around 4 weeks and alot simpler than paypal since no bank transactions are needed.

Ive heard alot of amusing stories from other bloggers when they withdraw their money from outlets. Ive heard one sales lady asked a blogger upon payment, "are you working in google sir?" and the blogger said "yes, and we are many". Im hoping to use the same line if ever the sales person asks me today and ill let you know when I come back.

A special shoutout to Dark Knight of blue mumble and Kuya J of PMT for the info about the withdrawal.

Ok, I wrote about my successful withdrawal from paypal and im still contemplating whether to buy a domain and start another blog or to venture into a small business. Meanwhile, I guess it would be very helpful to alot of people especially filipinos if im going to post about the step by step process. Here's how :

1. Sign up for a paypal account. - Make sure you choose the "basic" account and also input all the necessary data truthfully. Dont worry, its paypal nothing goes wrong with it.
   
2. Apply for an EON cyber account - That may sound too futuristic or maybe a bit intimidating but just go ahead and apply. You can apply for a card online, choose which branch nationwide you want to get your card and just wait for sometime until the card is ready for pick-up. You also have to pay Php350 for the membership and card to unionbank upon picking up the card.
   
3. Verify your Paypal using the EON card - Usually, you have to wait for 2 weeks maximum for your EON to be activated. I think every credit or debit card needs that time to get activated but nonetheless, it only takes about 9 to 12 days. After the card has been activated, verify your account using your card (your paypal needs to be verified for you to be able to withdraw anything). This process will take $1.95 from your eon account or equivalent to around Php84. Dont worry, paypal will give it back as soon as you start with your first transaction. After this verification, you have to wait for a 4-digit number paypal reflects to your EON transactions. You can do so by either of this two processes : One, you can wait for your monthly transactions (the one on envelopes) and Two, you can call the toll-free number at the back of your EON card and an operator gives you the 4 digit numbers after you give them necessary infos. I prefer the latter since its way faster and easier. After this one, complete the verification process by entering the 4-digit number you got into your paypal account and that's it, your paypal is now verified!
   
4. Click "withdraw" on your paypal account - Yes, this is the final phase. You can withdraw a maximum of $495 dollars since they charge $6 for the transfer. They said you have to wait for 5-7 days for the transfer to arrive but i received mine after only 3 days.
5. Enjoy your blogging money! - Yes, this is part of the tutorial.hehe I have to tell you, the feeling of finding out you got money from blogging is the same as having the girl your courting to say "yes".
   

That's it guys! I hope this post clear things up. If something comes up and you need some help, im here to help you out. Just contact me or comment below. Dont forget to subscribe to get updates!

Merry Christmas!

What comes into your mind when you hear the word auctioning? Perhaps, the auction announcer that seem to talk like he can recite the whole content of the bible in two minutes flat, or the auctioned items that we see on TV ranging from the rarest of entities like biggest diamonds, or the most unusual of things like the one I saw where a woman is willing to cut her hair off and send it to the highest bidder. Auctioning is very interesting but hey, you can actually make money while online with auctions.

I came across a blog/site that tackles how to make easy money online with Ebay, the internet's leader in auctioning. Im not really familiar with Ebay but after going over the blog, I think im now ready to auction off a signed memorabilia of a local actress that i got during her visit to the city. Yes, thats how they offer the most comprehensive guide on how to monetize via Ebay. I am a strong advocate of making quick and fast money online but I think im going to venture on auctioning and im going to let you guys know more about it.

In connection to blogging, the site also offers advice and tips in monetizing your blog if you already have one. If not, you can check out their post about how to start your own blog and I have to say that you will find it easy to get a thing or two from them. Furthermore, the best post that I come to love about them is there post entitled blogging inspiration. If you're a money making blogger, you cannot help but sympathize with them on this one.

I would like to end this post by giving out my phrase of the day coming from the site featured.

If others can do it, so can you.

Making money online is not easy (thats a fact!), some made it, why cant you?

There are really quite alot of ways you can earn money online as a teenager. It all depends on your personality, your time and most of all, your efforts with it. Sure it is easy to earn money online quick as a teen (i can attest to that) but hey, its not something that you can do over the night and the next day tons of checks are on your doorstep (anyone who tells you this is possible, dont believe in them!). I have written post about sure ways to make money as a teenager such as making money from affiliate programs and How to make money online quick as a teen.

Now here are ways that might be to your liking if you want to make easy money online as a teen. Of course, these are the things that i have been proven based on experience to really make money but you are welcome to try anything you want as long as it doesnt involve you paying for it.

Blogging:
This is one of the easiest way to earn without spending a dime while having the privilege to express your own opinions about things. As a starter, i recommend you to use free blog programs like the one im using right now from Blogspot. There are more blogs for free like wordpress and typepad. Just try things out and within a few weeks, youll get the hang of it. Personally, i started blogging without any know-how at all, i learned from the bloggers that has been already successful like mike and carl. Its my fourth month now, and i am happier than ever, just a sidenote, im expecting a check from clixsense within this week. Sweet!

If ever you try out blogging, do not hesitate to contact me and ask for guidance, i am more than willing to help you guys out in starting your blog. Its just passing on the torch. ;)

Joining Affiliate Programs:
Now this one, i wrote about in more post than necessary but dont get me wrong, im just trying to help you guys out in earning money fast and easily. There are alot of these programs nowadays but i highly recommend the ones that i already have proven. These are Treasuretrooper, Clixsense, and Tiktikcash. They will be very handy if you start out your blog and get referrals from your readers. As you get more visitors, you also get to have more referrals that leads to more money. How sweet it is!

Monetize your social media:
By social media, i mean the ones you almost exclusively use the internet for (myspace, friendster). They are undiscovered goldmines if you ask me. They are channels for visitors for your blog, they can be used to extend your referrals for affiliate programs and much much more!

Join get-paid-to-post programs:
These are programs that are very identical to myspace, multiply or friendster but with a little twist of course, they pay you for each post you make! Yes, you heard me right, you can earn a few cents per post that could eventually build up as time passes by. Hey, you would even forget youre already earning! Try them out for yourselves. This one is my top recommended program Mylot. Just browse through almost infinite topics and make friends and money along the way. Now thats what i call, having fun while earning money.

That's it guys! Hope this post gave you an idea on how to teens earn money online the easy way. Keep on coming back for more tips and dont forget to show me some love, just come back often and i will continue to give love to you too. ;) Be safe guys!

Ive been having this idea of changing my main blog's name into something that is more specific, something more defined and something that i can REALLY relate with. Given this, i wanted to target more people on my age, which is of course, the teens or teenagers but i was a bit hesitant as it might affect my search engine rankings but this morning, i pondered well about it and decided to finally go for it.

I realized the pertinent facts laid infront of me : Im blogging for 3 months now and with this, im receiving below 50 unique visitors per day, this alone tells me that theres something wrong. Furthermore, my PR is has not taken any level increase yet again, its something to improve upon. So, i did my research to change my name into "Teens Make Money with Kirby" and I used Google's Keyword Suggestions to find for the right keywords to go for. I wrote all the keywords with high search volumes with less competition. Moving on, i was very much surprised when i google searched the keyword "Teen Make Money" which has highest competition and search volumes, I was on the first page! I didnt know why or how but i guess its something that i have to capitalize on.

To sum it all up, i changed my title into "Teens Make Money with Kirby". Im not 100% certain about this but its a calculated risk of mine. So, lets see what happens. . .
