My main goal for 2009 is to become virtually debt free. In order to do that I not only have to spend less money but also make more money to pay down all my old debt. So I am looking for ways to make some real money online. I already sell stock images, do mystery shopping and get paid to post. I have seen a lot about blogging and was wondering if it is worth the time it takes.
TIA for any input.

2 . "Blog? Well, there's always Google Ads, Yahoo Ads... Pay Per Post, and there's Today.com where you can apply to blog there (I'm thinking it is $1 per post)"

Can you write content? Check out Associated Content. I earn Paypal from them too... also Gather.com has some kind of thing where you earn Gather Points for posting content that people like (I don't know much about their program since I don't write there....) in short, there's lots of things you can do to earn extra. Yahoo ads have a lower payout threshold (50 bucks) vs. Google's (100 bucks) and my blog is a year old and has only accrued 26.00, so a long way to go til payout.

I have signed up to many sites including Mylot, Mypoints, Gather, Associated Content, Helium, Ciao and a host of others but wasn't sure if blogging really paid or if I would be wasting my time. I guess it pays but takes some time to add up and reach payout.
Thanks again for the information.

4 . "Tammy - what's your AC user name?"

Just curious!

Plus, on AC at least, if you submit non-exclusive (or display only) you can take your article and put it other places for sale - like Daily Article for instance - for reprint rights only and maybe make more money. You can also post a teaser on your blog - like first paragraph - and then link back to your AC piece. Same goes for Squidoo lenses. It can be a bit of work, but link backs are always a good thing b/c there's more chance your article will be found.

6 . "Tammy - you probably don't want to muck up your professional site and make it look spammy, but you could start a blog or do a squidoo lens and monetize, yet link to your main site. Maybe a how-to kind of lens? There you could find some good books or resources on Amazon and link as an affiliate for Amazon... "
