A Gift With A Difference.

How many times have we be stuck for gift ideas, when it comes to christenings, anniversaries, birthdays, etc? I mean, there's only so many baby clothes a newborn can wear, eh?

Well, worry no more! There's a new business on the block, and it's about time. No, really, it's about time. Well, clocks to be precise. Handmade, decorative clocks, each lovingly inscribed with words that will make your gift to someone truly unique. Long after you've left the party, and the photographs are starting to fade, you will be remembered as the person who thought just that little bit more in their choice of gift to their friend.

With many years experience designing, manufacturing and selling on eBay, Jason and Samantha Quincey have finally decided to spread their illustrious wings a little further and now you can purchase these unique gifts directly from their website - cdclockgifts.com.

With something for everyone, this really is a site I'll be coming back to again and again, and I urge you to take a look, today, and make your next gift to someone that bit more special.

You Just Can't Please Some People

A couple of funny things happened this week. Firstly, I couldn't give $10 away!

Whilst surfing at Traffic Era I saw, in chat, that one of my team-mates, Nickybite, was asking another member if he knew of any way to make money online. As it happens, I've been a member of Ad-Ventures4U for around three months, and now earn just over $10 a week from them. Those that know me, I hope, will know me to be a fairly generous sort - and I decided to offer Nickybite a bit of a helping hand. I sent him a personal message, it's here:

Hi,

I was watching chat, this morning, when you were talking to Robbie about ways to earn money on the internet.

Well, I've been with an exchange called "Ad-Ventures4u" for just over three months and, just by surfing 25 sites each day there, I now earn just over $10 a week - and it grows EVERY week as well!

They're a "revenue sharing" exchange, which means that they share 75-90% of their advertising income with paid up members.

Now, it's free to join but, to earn, you must purchase "ventures" for a minimum of $10, through AlertPay (they don't accept Paypal.)

What I'd be happy to do, because I know that it's NOT a con as I've been paid many times, is to actually PAY $10 FROM MY OWN POCKET, to buy 10 ventures, so you can start earning money.

If you fancy it, join by clicking on my referral link, http://ad-ventures4u.com?r=66390

I only have just over $6 in my AlertPay account at the moment I'll purchase 10 ventures for you next week, when I get paid again from them.

Best Wishes,

John.

So far so good, eh? Offering to put up $10 of my own cash to help a team-mate out. Well, this is the reply I got:

Nicky

Obviously didn't quite take in the fact that I was putting up the money, in full, for him! Nonetheless, I replied, with the payment proof he'd asked for, though at this stage, I was wondering why I'd made the offer!

12 hours later, even though he'd been surfing, I'd got no reply - so I sent him a message telling him the offer was no longer available. Lo and behold, 5 hours after that, he send me a message tellng me he's joining! Too late, Nicky - far too late! It was a genuine offer, but I won't hold an offer like that open indefinitely!

Secondly, during big races at Traffic Era, I sometimes like to award incentives to whoever get, say, the 222nd clock - my reasoning being that it encourages team-mates to stay surfing a little longer, increasing our chance of winning.

Well, this week, I was offering credits at Traffic Splash - 500 to be precise - for whoever got the 222nd clock. Guess who got it? Yep, Nickybite!

But he announced that he wasn't a member there. I offered to send him my referral link in a message, so that he could join. 3 days after that, he decided to join - under someone else! Bless him. On me telling him that I'd transferred the credits and thanking(!) him for joining under someone else, this was his reply:

yes. that is not an issue for me.

Thank you anyways

Nicky

Thanks, Nicky, for your commitment to teamwork, and good luck in your next team.

I Never Thought I'd Touch Them!

Normally, I steer well clear of anything with the word, "Matrix" in it. To me, it's always conjured up images of a chain-letter, with no tangible product or service being offered.

Two days ago, however, I came across a company that's been in business since 2002. I tend to prefer these opportunities, as opposed to the "New this week" type, as they've stood the test of time.

This company is called, "MatrixMails" and is a Paid-to-Click site with a huge difference.

To start with, you get your own website. I don't mean a generic, "Promote what we say" site. No, your own website, where you can promote whatever business you want! Now, I have one already, and that costs me £5.95 a month, which works out at just over £70 a year. With MatrixMails you get this for a one-off payment of just $60!

It doesn't stop there! For this payment, you get entry into their matrix which can earn you $400 to start with, even if you refer nobody!

You can see the full range of benefits by clicking here.

For the price of a decent night out, you really do have the opportunity, with MatrixMails, to change your life for the better. Do it today!

Take A Leaf Out Of Warren Buffet's Book.

What relevance has Warren Buffet got to the use of traffic exchanges to earn money? Well, he doesn't like risks - much preferring to invest his money in household names, such as Schweppes. Everyone drinks Coke, so it's a sound investment.

The same philosophy can be applied to traffic exchanges. There are literally thousands of them, so surely it makes sense to invest your time in the popular ones. You'll get more people looking at your site and, as they're household names, people trust them more and may join under you.

So how do you find which ones are the household names? Well, Traffic Hoopla, run by Bill Carr, regularly monitors the traffic exchanges and, with independent statistics, comes up with a weekly list of the best ones with regard to traffic delivery and results.

Three that regularly feature in the top 3 are Traffic Splash, known for its regular cash giveaways, StartXchange, which gives a whopping 1000 credits to three lucky people every day and EasyHits4U which rewards you with 30c for every 1000 pages surfed and regularly has upwards of 500 surfers at any one time.

Each of these three top sites give you up to 50% commission on upgraded members that you introduce. With these figures, doesn't it make sense to concentrate your efforts on these?
