My 200th Post

This is my 200th blog post and it saddens me that the topic couldn’t be something more inspiring or thought provoking.  Instead it has to be about spam and CAPTCHA.
Some time ago I wrote a post  about CAPTCHA boxes and how annoying I found them to be.  Unfortunately, because No Job for Mom has been [...]

Time to Remove the Clutter

I was about to backup my computer for my semi-annual reformat and software reinstall which helps to keep my computer running smoothly when and I stopped and took a picture of my desktop. One picture is worth a thousand words.
The Word.doc icons are all articles that I’m in the process of writing. Some of them [...]

Do You Use a Writing Voice?

When I say writing voice, I’m not talking about whether or not your write in the first, second or third person. I’m talking about using the proper voice to convey your thoughts and ideas. Do you use the right…how should I say it… pitch, tone, accent, um…intonation level in your voice when you [...]

Why I Love Residual Writing Income

The other day I was talking to my brother about work, writing, jobs, etc.  He’s a successful executive and travels extensively.  There are times when he’s out of town more days in a month than at home.  For his troubles, he’s paid handsomely.
Being more of a free spirit I enjoyed earning money according to my [...]

Quality Gal Another Paying Writing Site

I came across another paying site for writers called QualityGal. From what I can see from other blog posts, QualityGal is undergoing a few changes, but it seems that some of the current writers are willing to stick with them through the growing pains.

Before I get too excited about any paying [...]

Another eHow Cleanup

Apparently eHow is still in the process of cleaning up their site. From what I can tell, this is the second round of article deletions.
This time around 11 of my articles were deleted. I agree with 10 of them, but the 11th one I can’t figure out why it was deleted nor will [...]

Put Your Letter Writing Know How to Work

In my daily internet wanderings yesterday I came across LetterRep.com . It’s amazing what a person can do when they act on an idea.
LetterRep writes letters for folks who need letters. You really can’t get more basic than that. How many times have you written letters for friends or colleagues who seem [...]

The Not So Bad Newbie Mistake

When I first starting playing around with web design and creating websites, I utilized free article sites like Ezine Articles and Article Database for content. At first I wrote 100% of my content. Then I started adding free articles so the ratio switched to 50-50.
Over time, I think the ratio changed a bit [...]

The Other Side of the Writing Coin

I decided that I wanted to start adding content to one of my websites (I’d really like to revamp the entire site but just don’t have the time). The site consists mainly of databases and is doing poorly when it comes to generating revenue because there are so few articles on the site. [...]

A Blown eHow Opportunity

Today one of my articles was featured as the eHow of the day. Last week I was contacted by someone on staff regarding the main picture for the article. Apparently the size picture I use is smaller than the “eHow of the day programming tool” requires, so she asked if I would mind [...]

An Almost Review of ContentCurrent.com

I came across a site called ContentCurrent.com. What attracted me to it was that it touted that it paid weekly by PayPal.
Writing for Content Current
The signup was easy enough. Simply inserting my name, email address, PayPal info and selecting a password. They didn’t request a social security number so I assumed this [...]
