Yep! You’ve read it right, I won 3 prizes in one contest over at Life is Colourful Blog Anniversary Contest. This is why I love joining blog contests – WINNING. LOL. Heck, even if you don’t win anything from these contests, just the experience and socialization you develop with other bloggers are a prize itself, so when you run your own contest in the future you’ll have an idea how to pull it off and you can invite those bloggers you’ve met as sponsors or participants.

Now, I didn’t won any cash prize but I won blogging resources tools and banner links instead which I prefer more because it would help me improve and promote Pinoy Raket Online. Here the list of the prizes I won:

The hype built up on the coming Eraserheads reunion concert is spreading like wild fire in the Philippine blogosphere and in the Philippine media as well. I can’t blame us Pinoys with the rising anticipation of the biggest concert event in our country, Eraserheads is the only OPM band that mattered during the 90’s. Eraserhead’s music has sort of been the soundtrack of my life, I sang “Pare Ko” with all my heart when I first got my heart broken when I was 16, the song “Magasin” touched my sentiments in a unique way, “With a Smile” kept my spirits afloat when I’m depressed, while “Ang Huling El Bimbo” was an instant classic that captured the hearts of every Filipino. The list goes on and the influence that the Eraserheads made in our music industry cannot be overlooked.

This entry was guest posted by my cousin Khristina Villacorta, a big fan of the Eraserheads and a true blue music junkie who listens to almost every genre of music from A Tribe Called Quest to Snow Patrol to Hed Kandi. She is now happily married and currently residing in Seattle Washington with her husband VJ and their lovely daughter Katrina Ysabel.

So it is true. The legendary band Eraserheads is having a 45-minute free reunion concert come August 30 at the CCP Grounds. The said band disbanded for six years and this upcoming occasion will most definitely mark a milestone in the Philippine music industry.

Last week, I expressed my disappointment over PTC sites as a breeding ground for scammers. I got a few comments from other PTC members who shared the same experience like I do. It would be easy for me to generalize that all PTC sites are a scam, but I know it would be unfair to other PTC sites who are honest and have been paying their members properly. I think there are a hundred of PTC sites out there today and every other week at least one or two new PTC program comes out, only 5% of that number would survive the first 6 months of their operation. Out of those 100 PTC sites only 10% of them can be considered as a legitimate program to earn money online and one of them is IsabelMarco.

I was chatting with a friend over at YM the other day. I met her online and she happens to be one of my active referral at DailyClicks. She was asking if I already received my payment from Dailyclicks. I wanted to make up a story just to convince her that it’s still okay to trust PTC sites but it would be useless lying so I told her the truth. I haven’t got my payment from Dailyclicks. I requested my payout which is $12 last March and they haven’t lived up to their promise that I’d be paid in 60 days. My money was refunded back to my account so I cashed out again last May 23 a total of $38 that has accumulated since that 60 day period. I’m expecting to be paid this coming July 23. My friend told me she experienced the same. Her money was refunded so she has to wait again for 60 days to get paid. WTF is wrong with Dailyclicks?

It was late last year when I discovered about PTC sites. I was desperate to make extra income and the opportunity presented by Paid to Click sites was a tempting offer you can’t quite refuse. Think about it – you can make money at home without investing a dime, you just click on ads and once you reach payout, you can request for cashout. Simple isn’t it? Even a 12-year old kid can make money off of it. Now, the real challenge is you have to invest your time and effort promoting PTC programs so you can gather referrals and make more money. Even that one is EASY, you don’t need any marketing skills to do that. I told myself, “Why not give it a try.” I became active with PTC but as months passed the PTC industry became a breeding ground for scammers.

I signed up for A.W. Surveys back in March. The program seemed promising enough as I was greeted with 7 welcome surveys that is worth $4 to $6. The instructions was quite easy, you click on a link, you write a 2 to 3 sentences evaluation about a sponsor website and you make $4 to $6 each out of it. Pretty simple huh? I made a generous $26 on my first day and once you made at least $75 in your account you can have your money shipped via USPS or sent through your Paypal account. I had high hopes for A.W. Surveys as a legitimate Get-Paid-To Survey program so I promoted it and gathered 16 referrals for them that was worth $1.25 each so I made $20 out of those referrals. I now have $49 in my account.

The month of June came by fast and it’s about time once again to thank my top Entrecard Droppers. I’m quite happy to find out that Pinoy Raket Online is on a constant place at the second page of Entrecard’s Most Popular page at their Make Money Online category. There are 864 blogs there and to be included in the Top 30 is something. I think much of it contributes to my consistent dropping. I drop at least 100+ cards a day and at peak days I get about 150 cards dropped in my blog. Also, Mommy Ruby’s Surf and Drop project contributed a lot in the number of my regular droppers. Check out Surf and Drop and be included in the list. Once again, thank you for your continued support, rest assured that I will always reciprocate your drops. Here is the list:
