After I created my 1st two blog posts, I started creating my affiliate accounts. I’ve never done this before, so I started with several from Kumiko’s Cash Quest blog

1. FriendFinder
2. SlashMySearch
3. MyBlogLog
4. MyLot
5. AdSense

Funny story. I started with FriendFinder. It appears to be a good money maker for Kumiko. I thought it was some sort of chat service. I was right, but its more. Its a single’s network. I’m very much married. Needless to say, I don’t plan on doing much with FriendFinder.

I got SlashMySearch setup, but never really had time to do anything with it beyond set it to my home page. I really don’t do much searches at home, more of an at-work type thing, so I’ll set it up at work tomorrow and see how it does.

MyBlogLog doesn’t really make any money, its like a myspace for Blogs. You look at blogs, add the ones you like to your friends and normally the owners of that blog will see that you added them, they usually check you out, and if they like, they add you. It expands from there. Traffic is the name of the game.

MyLot, OMG. Its a huge posting and discussion site about anything and everything. You get paid to respond to posts and to start discussions. And all this time I’ve been doing it for free! Generally, from what I’ve read, what you get paid depends on the quality of the posting. So going on and posting “duh!” on 100 discussions probably won’t get you much. Plus there is a reputation system, so you have been warned.

AdSense from Google. This is the grand-daddy of online ads. Everyone uses it. Supposedly has the most potental. We’ll see.

I’m pumped! I’ve been checking into other affiliates to see what’s out there. I’ll mention new affiliates as they get added.
