I have been a member of this new for just one week but they are legit, i have read several reviews about them and they are really legit, they pay you $1 for every 120 words you make, the minimum payout is $5 and its very easy to get the minimum payout, just think of a product,movie or etc and search it on the site and then make a review wait for 24 hours because the site system will update your earnings every 24 hours and after that you will see your earnings. You will also be paid by getting reads and ratings from other members, so you will earn more than $1 per review. The site pays every month.


Example. you earn $100 in the month of august and request for a payout in the mid of september around 12-14th you will be paid by them. Review: as of now i earn $24 from them for just 2 days and i was not so active. If you refer your friend to join them and under you referrals you will get $1 and you will also earn %50 of there earnings.

1. How can I earn money by writing product reviews?
   Reviews of some products will be awarded a small cash payment every time a member rates them "helpful", "very helpful" or "exceptional". To take advantage of this, write high-quality reviews about these products to ensure that you receive numerous positive ratings by other members.
   
   
2. How are earnings for member ratings calculated?
   Your earnings for ratings of your reviews by other members are calculated by multiplying the number of ratings per review by the remuneration rate for each of the reviews written. These totals are then added up and your overall earnings calculated once a month.
   
   
3. What are the different rates of remuneration being offered?
   1 cent per rating, 2 cents per rating or 3 cents per rating. For some reviews, you will not be paid anything for ratings. The different rates of remuneration are indicated by dollar signs which appear next to the name of the product on the product overview page when you have logged in. These symbols are not visible from any of the other product information tabs. The different payment levels are as follows: no dollar sign is shown for non-remunerated products, one dollar sign indicates 1 cent per rating, two dollar signs 2 cents and three dollar signs 3 cents.

* Blog - Start a blog and consistently write excellent content. With good ad placement, you may make some money.

* Commission Junction - If you have a site, you can join Commission Junction. Once enrolled for free, you can choose companies whose ads are pertinent to your site. Companies have the ultimate say on working with you. There are easily over 1,000 companies to choose from here.

* CreamAid - For blogs only, advertisers provide you with a topic and you write about it on your site. To do this, you have to install a flash widget into your blog post. The more people you bring into the conversation through the widget, the more you get paid. It's difficult to explain.

* eefoof - Think of it as YouTube + Flickr + Music. You add original content and they pay you based on the visitors you attract.

* Ether - If you are an expert on something, Ether provides a way for people to pay you to talk about it in a one-on-one setting. If you want to charge $250/hr, that's fine. You have to do all the advertising so you should have a blog or site already established.

* eBay - Come on, you know what this is. Gather your junk and sell it!

* eBay Stores - If you have a real store and want to sell your stuff online, this is a decent option to get you started.

* ELance - Name gives it away. Programmers, Codes, Web Designers, Writers, Editors, can look for freelance opportunities.

* Feedvertising - This is an arm of Text Link Ads and is currently only good for Wordpress 2.0 Users. This does me no good currently, but as you can guess, they place ads in your feed(s).

* Feedburner - Not only are they the best place to house your feeds, they will also add ads to your feed and website. You get paid per impression.

* Google Adsense - Come on, you don't need an explanation. These ads are all over the place. Google displays relevant ads based on your site's content

* Google Adwords - Create simple text ads and choose keywords that determine when they are displayed. This is where the Adsense Content comes from. You do not need a site for this.

* SHUT DOWN Google Answers - If you are good, Google will pay you to answer questions in your specialty. Questions all come from normal people like you and me. You can get paid $2.50+ per answer you provide.

* H3.com - Get paid to fill jobs. Commissions range from $50-$5,000. It all depends on how tough the job is to fill and how desperate the hiring company is. This is another one that's tough to explain.

* Indeed.com - Add their job board to your site. They then post jobs based on the geographic location of visitors and the position types you pre-select. I tried it and I they continually report that I sent 0 visitors and I know that's not right. Nevertheless, I may have an isolated problem so they make the list.

* InnerSell - If you have a customer that wants to buy something you cannot sell, you can sell the lead here.

* Jellyfish - This is a shopping site that pays you a percentage of the purchases made by people you refer. They are not part of a wider affiliate program so you do it direct.

* Jigsaw - It's a pretty flaky model but if you have a Rolodex full of good contacts, you can sell them here. I can't make sense of it but it looks like you get $0.10 per profile.

* KarmaOne - They are basically a recruiting website. If you fill one of their jobs by finding a good candidate, you'll get paid anywhere from $50-$12,000. It all depends on how desperate the hiring company is.

* LinkShare.com - If you have a site, you can join Linkshare. Once enrolled for free, you can choose companies whose ads are pertinent to your site. Companies have the ultimate say on working with you. Like Commission Junction, there are a ton of companies waiting to evaluate your site.

* Microsoft Adcenter - Bid on keywords and Microsoft places your created ads then they are searched for. This is similar to Google Adwords. You do not need a site for this.

* Overstock.com - Sell your stuff on Overstock.com

* Pageflakes - This is a company that developed a user-defined Ajax homepage to show feeds, flickr photos, and a ton of other things. Think of it as a replacement for your Google Homepage. Anyway - they'll pay you $1 per referral that you send over. They are not part of a wider affiliate program so you do it direct. This one is pretty simple.

* Pay Per Post - I don't agree with this model entirely but they have advertisers that will pay you to write about their products on your blog.

* Pheedo - If you have an RSS feed, run it through Pheedo. Like Feedburner, they can include ads into your feed and if you really become large, advertisers will pay a premium for you to show their ads.

* Shareasale.com - I've never really worked with them but I do have an account. They are similar to Commission Junction and Linkshare however they seem to have lower tiered companies with advertising offers.

* Shoemoney - This is a blog that can teach you a ton on making money online. I've spent hours reading his old stuff.

* Software Judge - They will pay you up to $50 to review software.

* Text Link Ads - I have never made a dime here but I know people that have. You can earn by sending advertisers to them or by selling spots on your site. You must have a real site or blog to do this - nothing on a shared domain (i.e. /blogspot).

* Vibrant Media - Don't bother unless your site has 500,000 page views of text based content a month. If you have that readership, these are the guys that display bubble box ads to underlined words on your site.

* West Work At Home Agent - Not entirely online but this is worth a mention because it's won awards and is very legitimate. If you are an at-home Mom or free-lancer without work, you should check this out.

* Yahoo Publisher Network- This is the Yahoo version of Google Adsense.

Google Adsense may be the best online money-making program right now, but Filipino publishers looking for an alternative or complementary means to make more money need not look further.

Asia Century Multi-Advertising, Inc. or AsiaCenturyPH.com is a Philippine-based online advertising network that is very similar to the Google Adsense program. Like in Adsense, a website owner registers his site in Asia Century’s affiliate site and, when approved, can start placing ad codes on his site. The site publisher earns whenever the ads deliver a click, a lead, or a sale.

Here is our initial review of Asia Century after trying the program for one week.

First impressions

We first received an invitation to join Asia Century in June this year. We took a look at the site but back then, we were not yet ready to entertain other advertising networks. But Asia Century’s CEO Anders Barris was persistent. Almost every other week, the email invitations kept on coming. And so last week, we decided to give it a try. We thought, what’s not to like if it’s going to complement our Adsense earnings?

We signed up and in a matter of minutes, PinoyMoneyTalk.com was approved and the ad codes were ready to be placed on the site. We logged in to the affiliate site and, interestingly, the interface was very similar with another affiliate management site Commission Junction (CJ).

The CJ-like interface works for Asia Century’s advantage because it is familiar and easy to use. The main difference, of course, is that Asia Century’s ad campaigns are targeted to the Filipino public and well, sadly, offer lower payouts as well.

Still, those looking for a complementary money-making program won’t be disappointed. More than 34 affiliate programs are running right now, with varyings offers such as free music streaming, free TGIF gift cards, and a games site that gives away free cellphone load (sample ads can be seen at the bottom of this blog article).

Ads have various formats that can suit a site such as text links, small banner ads, big banner ads, and, yes, bigger banner ads. We noticed, however, a few campaigns that do not offer any ad unit so we wonder how a publisher can promote that campaign.

One good thing is that most offers don’t necessarily have to generate a lead or a sale in order to generate income. A click on the ad normally would suffice, and the income from one ad click may vary from P0.50 to P0.70.

Another plus point is the comprehensive earnings report which details which ads made money and when the ads were clicked. These information surely help site owners determine which affiliate programs should be highlighted and which ones should be terminated.

Needs improvement

As a new player in the local online advertising industry, Asia Century is definitely not without flaws. One major problem is the slow loading of the affiliate login site. Actually while writing this review, it took us 3 minutes before we were able to log in to our account.

We also noticed that the Affiliate Login field in the AsiaCenturyPH.com main site doesn’t work. It looks like a JavaScript problem but we’re not sure if the problem is with our PC or with the site itself.

Regarding the ad campaigns, having more ad format options won’t hurt, and we’re not just talking about the size of the banner ad. Alternative ad colors or new ad content can help publishers select which ad formats they think will generate more clicks on their site.

It also would be good to have a search function that can filter campaigns depending on how a publisher can earn from the offer, i.e., per-click or per-lead or per-sale.

Of course, constantly adding more merchants and affiliate programs is a must and, if possible, increase the commission rate as well to attract more publishers. We think the per-click commission of P0.50 might be too low but we’re extremely satisfied with the per-lead payout of up to P100 per successful lead.

Our Conclusion

A week of trial with Asia Century earned us a total of P40.00. Asia Century is definitely nowhere near the caliber of Google Adsense in terms of higher payout but why complain if you can earn by simply adding a simple code to your site?

If you’re looking for an alternative or complementary way of making more money online, you should take a look at Asia Century advertising network.
