Hey Readers,
Back to byz, and i can just see you rolling your eyes just by reading the title of this post. " like Divina?are you for real?" " who would seriously wanna make money from these 0.05USD/ survey?" Well i dabbled with that a little.Here's what i gotta say;
If you're looking to make millions a day instantly, this is soo not for you.
If you're not patient, this is not your thing either.
If you're already making it in Internet Marketing, why waste your time?
If you're not one for detail, you shouldn't go there, you stand to lose instead- cos with some of the offers, you would have to enter your credit info and pay some money, you don't want to be paying $3.75 just to make $4-$5. It just makes no sense.
Having pulled out the above unofficial rules to the game, i'll go into some detail, as to what the paid surveys are all about. Simply put, you get paid to take surveys-just as the name implies. Some of thes surveys are actually trial offers and sign ups for which the companies pay these survey sites just to get emails, phone numbers and new members. The surveys require you to evaluate the product by signing up or entring your personal info or credit info to get the credit points, then you complete a survey after that.
It takes a while to get around, cos you don't know which survey is which. After a while, you kind of know just what to do. Some people have made youtube videos and website reviews claiming to make up to $50.00 just taking surveys, personally, i dont believe this. It didn't work that way for me, but that's just me. If you have made it doing surveys like that, pls share your testimonial, we'll love to hear about it.
What I liked:
-Signing up for most survey sites are free, hence its a free source of income for a beginner.
-When you eventually get the payout limits, they actually pay you.
-Its relatively easy to understand and easy to make money after a.....while.
What i didn't like:
-Making the payout limit took forever, like $0.25 per survey, didn't have all the time.
-The surveys are just too long for what they're worth ( like 25 minutes for $1.00 usd).
-There were surveys i took but never got my credits( like $87.00), just showed pending credits, for like... forever. SMH, waste of my precious minutes!!
-The worst disadvantage is all the spam calls and emails i got for signing up for most of the crap offers, and i had to sign up to get my credits!!
-I was asked to place a facebook post about them or tweet about them for extra credit, never got that tooo.
This like other forms of Internet Marketing systems, are sources of online income, so i'm not going to be beating down anyone. However, i'd like to mention the two that actually worked for me; Panda research and Mindspay. I'm no marketer or affiliate for these guys, so don't think by checking them out you're making me some money, ok?
My take? its something, its definitely better than nothing, if you are at rock bottom with time to spare and internet, you might as well....
Finally, if you've seen the light with paid surveys, pls feel free to share by posting a comment. The essence of this blog is to learn and help others to learn. I'd love to hear from you. Cheers
One love

My sincere Appreciation:Just saying......
Heyy Readers,
Hope everyone's had a grinding TGIG (Thank God is Friday). y'all have become an exciting part of me lately. This is not a regular Internet Marketing post, i want to say thanks to all those who sent me tweets on my current reviews, as well as those who sent me Facebook PMs, must say the tweets took me by surprise really, cos this blog is not featured on my twitter- though i've made it a point of duty to take care of that oversight. I actually featured one of my other blogs- my healthy hair care blog on twitter. So you can see why i was just so impressed!!
It was really encouraging to get those few tweets from real honest people who are going through the same struggles and it made me feel the blog wasn't just for the fun of typing, your reading every line of this means a lot to me.
That's why i have decided to dedicate this blog post to y'all. you're super duper awesom readers!! Thanks a lot!!!
I never thought of it earlier though ( i know right? dum dum me!) so now that its been brought to my attention, pls feel free to follow me on twitter- @Nko30- i'll be sure to follow back and respond to your every tweets ( no spams now).
I also just begun a new facebook fanpage on this post ( Internet Marketing) pls like my fanpage if you feel my posts have been helpful in any way.
Gotta go, there's an actuall blog post to come asap. Thanks once again y'all!

Blogging 101
Heyy readers,
As promised, this is my first post on my Internet Marketing experience; why not? this was my first attempt. I must start by saying that while blogging could be a good source of extra income, its mainly an avenue for communication and awareness and hence, its more resourceful if you're blogging about real facts and not just anything that can bring the checks.
I started blogging on another website- for the website, as a source of income. I won't even mention th ename of this company, just know when you see these fakes that its so not worth it!!!I'm sure you have heard about those ads, where internet gurus promise you an easy sail into millions by just blogging for them everyday. They tell you not to worry about traffic cos its automated, and cos they're known. So you labor daily, or weekly, depending on how commmitted you are to the cause, and you write and write and write- you even start lying just to convince people. Maybe you get one or two checks as commission, then everything stops. Wanna know why?cos you're devoting intellectual property to someone else and making him rich!!! took me some good weeks to discover that wasn't the way forward. So the next move came...
I signed up for another system, Presell Pro, in this system, you sign up with a one-time fee of 47 usd, buy a domain with Hostgato ( for which he gives you a discount code of 8.00 usd or so), set up your blogging website and give them authorized access to put up posts for you. So basically, Dustin S, the owner of this system promises you, you dont even have to think of what to blog about, cos they blog for you. However, there's a five module training on getting indexed, getting ranked, enhancing the features and themes on your blog, driving in traffic, and monetizing. thses tips are aimed at making your website more successful, and with more traffic, more money.
What do y'all think? i'll leave that for you to decide. This is not to slander or bash anyone, but i think its unrealistic to make such promises. First off, my first post stayed on for weeks before it was updated!! i had to email for the updates. Secondly, there was a problem with my payment info. I still had Dustin sending me emails trying to convince me to pay again even after i had already paid for the full system!! I had to email over and over before they admitted there was an error somewhere. Third, i realized that my signing up and following all those guidelines and training modules, buying all those SEO tools, i was actually generating income for his Affiliate marketing!! and you know what's worse? i made no money in the whole deal!!
Nonetheless, like i said, this works for some people, so i am very careful to point out that this was my own personal experience. If you're thinking of blogging and feel you want ot be helped, with people blogging for you, feel free to try this system.
While i was in and out of systems, i decided that the best way to discover your own niche is try the blogspot. C'mon now, its free, no pressures you can blog just cos you like to and feel like it, and not cos you need to make up money to pay web hosting and all the extra blas. Its not a money machine, but it sure is a platform to learn about your passion and discover your own niche. And in some magical way, you get traffic too!!! Go figure
