I found this article on articles directory by the title How to Get Paid Blogging via Advertising Networks written by Robert Je. This article made me interesting. It explains us the ways how to get money from our blog. This article really encourages me to follow what it explains.
It is said that all of people have opportunity to get money by blogging. Blogging is very popular past time and we are probably have a blog we write on. It is also said getting paid to blog is the one method of internet income that we will not have to pay upfront (or at all period) in order to make money
In this article also explained or described some parameters regarding blogs being accepted and they tend to vary between companies. The common requirements usually about language, Subject matter and some cases a blog must be a certain age to be considered.
In my opinion, this article is really really good. Not only gives us the information about making or getting money by blogging but also give us spirit to do it soon. So don't wait so long time. If you have a blog but it doesn't give you money yet, do it now. Register your blog and wait for approved. But if you have no blog, own it now. You can make blog free, no cost. And there are many tutorial about making blog. You can find it by using search engine.
Don't worry and be afraid about the difficulties to do it. It is really easy. But one you must remember, you must have commitment and consistent to do it. And at least you will get it your money. And to support your knowledge you can visit the articles directory. There are many articles there. And you can learn from it. Enjoy your struggle and good luck.

The Google Adsense Business Still became Favorite
By Indah Musfiroh T.S
From several programs to produce money from the internet, google adsense still became the favourite for publisher. Especially for them who were still new in doing business this online. But also not a little of the old players also went along to idol him. Why could be like this? Because beside its program that has been tested, also could be believed. The condition to join it did not twist like most of his competitors. Be enough to provide one blog with the pure contents (not results of the generator of the program/software) and must use the language that has been supported by google adsense.
Is it true that as easy as that? I myself believe that to join this program could be counted was easy. Supplied blog free then could to join this program. But not meant to be easy in got dollar. Not because it must know the tip or the trick, but rather tended to the blog visitor, because of even more blog/website visitors, your possibility got more dollar.
In the business adsense not the far difference with other businesses. Honesty became the priority, so as to be hoped the follower of this program must take honest measures, because if dishonest and was found out by the side google, then you were not permitted still joined this program. So if registered again by the name of, the address or other elements that were same, continued to be not accepted, because all that has entered the black list google. That was honest then also did not escape from this problem, because could the other side did not like us, then used methods cunning at dropping our good reputation. Not only that, but still had several other factors that often we did not know what became the cause not the implementation again our account.
If you have felt you were convinced could fill the criterion as publisher adsense, you could join this program easily. First prepared blog/the available site of its contents (was not empty), again better if using English as the language especially. If already, immediately registered your blog in google adsense by filling in the form completely. Confirmed also in accordance with the data that was owned by you, to avoid the matter that was not wanted someday. Nevertheless, and you too was given by the opportunity, and could renew the data that has been put by you beforehand. Has been ready to publisher adsense?

Get Paid In Helium
By Indah Musfiroh T.S
This is my first article about business. May be you all know about Helium. Especially you all that like writing. Here you not only write but you will get paid from your writing. I have ever sent my first article. The title is "What About Tomorrow". By joining writing in Helium of course I want my article will give me earn. It is true. Although my articles wasn't bought by publisher, but I still get earn by rate. I know that is too low for you that get more than me. But I thank to God very much that gives me this way. I get $5 in this first month. And I am sure I will get more than it if I am hard to try and write, write and write more. So if you like me, don't be hopeless, if you want, you will try, you will get it. If you are interested in, join right now and learn Helium User Guide First.
Here some ways to get earn from Helium. I Copied this from Helium. Read it !
Upfront Payments
Upfront Payments are based on the number of new articles you submit in a month and the number of stars you have on calculation day (the last day of the month). So, per article submitted in a month, you need 1 rating star to earn as follows:
* 1 Writing Star – $0.50 per article published
* 2 Writing Star – $1.00 per article published
* 3 Writing Star – $1.50 per article published
* 4 Writing Star – $2.00 per article published
* 5 Writing Star – $2.50 per article published
Ineligible channels: Some channels are more lucrative to Helium in terms of advertising revenue, and it makes sense that these channels are where we encourage most of our writing energy. Opinion pieces, poetry, news stories just don’t generate the revenue we need to share with our writers. So the following channels are excluded from Upfront Payments:
* Creative Writing (1)
* Politics, News & Issues
* Religion & Spirituality
* Society & Lifestyle
* Entertainment
* The Recipes sub-channel within the Food & Drink channel
* Other Channel
* All articles written to Debate titles
(1) Creative Writing benefits: We can’t leave our poets, short-story writers and novelists out in the cold! Deserving members, based on writing percentages for their work in the Creative Writing channel, receive new Creative Writing excellence badges in Bronze, Silver and Gold. Please visit our Stars and Badges page for more information.
Upfront Payment calculations: A member must have at least 1 rating star and at least 1 writing star to generate an Upfront Payment. All eligible articles submitted from the start-of-day on the 25th of the month to 23:59 GMT on the 24th of the following month will be calculated. (We need the extra days at the end of the month to allow articles to settle in rank and to be thoroughly vetted.) You need to have your rating star and any writing stars bright and shiny on the last day of the month, the day we calculate Upfront Payments. Articles submitted on the 25th of the month and after, will be included in the next month’s calculation. Remember, all deadlines are figured on GMT. (Figure your local time from GMT here.)
Empty Title Bonus
Helium also offers a bonus to the Upfront Payments: The Empty Title $1 Bonus! Earn $1 for each empty title that you’re the first to write to.
We’re constantly coming up with new titles based on what readers on the web are searching for right now. Unfortunately, many of these titles remain empty on our site – and they offer great long-term earning potential!
It’s simple: For each empty title on Helium that you’re the first to write to, you’ll earn $1.
If you’re looking for empties, click the “Write” button in the top nav, go to Title Finder, type in your interest and click the “Empty only” button under “Show titles.”
Don’t forget, all the rules of Upfront Payments apply. (The eligibility time frame for the Empty Title Bonus started on the beginning of Dec. 25, 2008.)
Marketplace Kill Fee
Starred writers who write to Marketplace but didn’t get their article selected, are eligible to receive a “kill fee” for each piece that transitions to Helium. Kill fee payments are paid on the same star basis and are subject to the same requirements as Upfront Payments: 1 rating star, only titles in eligible channels, eligible time period.
You’ll see a line for Kill fees and another for Upfront Payments in the Adjustments section of your Earnings & Payments page
Stock Content – The Newest Helium Publishing Opportunity
Wouldn’t it be great if businesses in need of content could browse your archive of articles and choose ones they want to use? You wouldn’t have to write query letters or track down opportunities. The publisher would come right to you. What’s more, payment would simply appear in your account!
Dream no more. Helium introduces “Stock Content” and it works like this: Publishers of everything from niche newsletters to newspaper advertising sections need specific content for specific needs. They’re attracted to Helium’s range of content and are looking at your work on Helium. When they find something that suits their needs, they contact us to complete a licensing arrangement. We send you a letter telling you which article was licensed and the amount credited to your earnings. Now, that’s easy!
This is a golden opportunity to expand earnings and exposure for our writers. What’s more, because the publisher is not purchasing exclusive rights, your article remains on Helium to attract other publishers.
You still own the copyright to your article. But because you share rights to it with Helium, we’re able to facilitate publishers getting the content they need – and your earning on your work. And you get your byline with the article (as long as it’s an acceptably real-sounding name).
If a publisher has licensed your content, you’ll be sent an email from Helium that tells you which article and the amount paid. You can verify this in your Earnings & Payments page by clicking on “Adjustments” – that page will list the price and “stock_content” with a number. That number is your article ID number. To find the article, copy the number and paste it at the end of this URL: http://www.helium.com/items/[number goes here].
So, sit back, relax and let your work work for you. Oh, we didn’t say relax, did we? How about another article, just in case there’s a publisher looking right now…
Contests and Marketplace
You can earn through writing articles and contributing to Debates. But there are more ways. You can also enter:
* Contests: Helium loves to hold writing contests. And they help you earn some extra cash! They can be seasonal, topical or run indefinitely. They are a fun way for Helium members to increase their writing skills by writing to selected channels and topics. If you win, earnings show up in your account immediately.
When contests are being held, the main Contests page explains how the contest works and what’s expected of you. Typically we’ll also display running contest statistics. Of course, there you’ll find a link to more in-depth rules.
If you’re looking to earn some relatively big money, bring your A-game. Check out the latest Helium contests today.
* Marketplace: Get hired by publishers — write to Marketplace titles today.
Marketplace provides access to big-name publishers looking for freelancers. Currently, earnings range from $16 to $200 per article! Marketplace article titles are specific in their needs, which are described by each publisher. If the publisher chooses your article, you get paid as soon as possible.
There’s more! If you’re a starred writer on Helium and your Marketplace submission is not chosen, you’ll receive a “kill fee” when the piece transitions to Helium.com. Get all the details here.
Other ways to earn on Helium
* Earn by rating! Because rating is critical to the community and the success of Helium, we want to reward our star raters. If you have 5 rating stars on the last day of the month, you will be paid a $3 Rating Bonus.
* Earn through writing! In addition to the Helium revenue share, you can make your writing pay off big for you through our contests and our Marketplace.
* Invite-a-writer ™: Let your smart friends do the work for you. “Invite-a-writer” is a way for you to spread the word about the great communal writing spirit at Helium, to help the site grow and to earn more money. For every person you invite who registers and writes, you earn a 5% bonus based on his or her article earnings. The more successful invites you have, the greater your Invite-a-Writer earnings. Learn more about sending invites and your My Invites pages.
* Link in: Let the World (Wide Web) do the work for you. Cast a wide net throughout the Internet to spread the word about your Helium articles. Place Helium links on your website, blog, MySpace and Facebook accounts — anywhere on the web. These links will draw people and revenue directly to your articles.
* Improve your “About Me” page: Let your persona do the work for you. Keep readers on your “About Me” page. When people are on this page, they read your listed articles and bring more traffic to those pages. This helps your potential earnings. Besides, blank space sets off the boring alarm. Show off and watch your earnings rise.
Things you can do to get more traffic to your articles
Of the top 50 writers on our site in the last three months (measured by how many people found their articles through search engines), HALF of them had their pages’ PageRanks on their About Me pages of 2 or more.
So what does this mean and what can you do to improve your PageRank?
As you might know, having a high PageRank in Google has a huge effect on whether search traffic finds its way to your web pages. On a web site, each and every page has its own PageRank. To examine your own pages’ PageRanks, you can download the Google Toolbar, go to your own About Me page and check your PageRank. Browse around to some of your articles and look at their PageRank.
The best writers on Helium have obtained PageRanks for their About Me pages of 3 and 4, although even a 2 is good for an About Me page.
How can you improve your pages’ PageRank? Here is a list of techniques that will help.
Things you can do while at Helium:
1. Write articles that rank in the top 3 of the title. Because of how the intrasite linking works for highly rated articles, you will get more PageRank by being in the top-rated articles under a title.
2. Be in the top-ranked articles of titles that have more than 10 articles. Being #1 of 1 doesn’t get you any PageRank benefit. But there is a point of diminishing returns, so adding one more article to a title that has 100 isn’t going to help you.
3. Win contests. The links that come to your About Me page from the contest leaderboards tend to help a lot in PageRank.
4. Write a lot of articles. How your articles automatically link to your About Me page and vice versa has a positive effect on your pages’ PageRank. Two hundred great articles are more than twice as good as 100 great articles.
5. Participate in the discussion boards. Again, there is a point of diminishing returns, but adding a few useful posts helps all around, although this is the least useful of the techniques mentioned here.
Things you can do at other places:
1. Get more “high-value” links from other sites to any of your articles or your About Me page—with the emphasis on “high value.” Adding links to your articles from your own blog (where the blog has no PageRank) isn’t going to help you much. Adding links to the navigational bar of your blog helps less than you think. When it comes down to it, not all links are created equal.
2. The best high-value links are ones you don’t create but come from respected members of the community who read your articles and link to them. So don’t be shy about telling other people about your work!
Here’s a recent interesting article that talks about social link building. Please read it for more ideas.

It’s simple: For each empty title on Helium that you’re the first to write to, you’ll earn $1.
If you’re looking for empties, click the “Write” button in the top nav, go to Title Finder, type in your interest and click the “Empty only” button under “Show titles.”
Don’t forget, all the rules of Upfront Payments apply. (The eligibility time frame for the Empty Title Bonus started on the beginning of Dec. 25, 2008.)
Marketplace Kill Fee
Starred writers who write to Marketplace but didn’t get their article selected, are eligible to receive a “kill fee” for each piece that transitions to Helium. Kill fee payments are paid on the same star basis and are subject to the same requirements as Upfront Payments: 1 rating star, only titles in eligible channels, eligible time period.
You’ll see a line for Kill fees and another for Upfront Payments in the Adjustments section of your Earnings & Payments page
Stock Content – The Newest Helium Publishing Opportunity
Wouldn’t it be great if businesses in need of content could browse your archive of articles and choose ones they want to use? You wouldn’t have to write query letters or track down opportunities. The publisher would come right to you. What’s more, payment would simply appear in your account!
Dream no more. Helium introduces “Stock Content” and it works like this: Publishers of everything from niche newsletters to newspaper advertising sections need specific content for specific needs. They’re attracted to Helium’s range of content and are looking at your work on Helium. When they find something that suits their needs, they contact us to complete a licensing arrangement. We send you a letter telling you which article was licensed and the amount credited to your earnings. Now, that’s easy!
This is a golden opportunity to expand earnings and exposure for our writers. What’s more, because the publisher is not purchasing exclusive rights, your article remains on Helium to attract other publishers.
You still own the copyright to your article. But because you share rights to it with Helium, we’re able to facilitate publishers getting the content they need – and your earning on your work. And you get your byline with the article (as long as it’s an acceptably real-sounding name).
If a publisher has licensed your content, you’ll be sent an email from Helium that tells you which article and the amount paid. You can verify this in your Earnings & Payments page by clicking on “Adjustments” – that page will list the price and “stock_content” with a number. That number is your article ID number. To find the article, copy the number and paste it at the end of this URL: http://www.helium.com/items/[number goes here].
So, sit back, relax and let your work work for you. Oh, we didn’t say relax, did we? How about another article, just in case there’s a publisher looking right now…
Contests and Marketplace
You can earn through writing articles and contributing to Debates. But there are more ways. You can also enter:
* Contests: Helium loves to hold writing contests. And they help you earn some extra cash! They can be seasonal, topical or run indefinitely. They are a fun way for Helium members to increase their writing skills by writing to selected channels and topics. If you win, earnings show up in your account immediately.
When contests are being held, the main Contests page explains how the contest works and what’s expected of you. Typically we’ll also display running contest statistics. Of course, there you’ll find a link to more in-depth rules.
If you’re looking to earn some relatively big money, bring your A-game. Check out the latest Helium contests today.
* Marketplace: Get hired by publishers — write to Marketplace titles today.
Marketplace provides access to big-name publishers looking for freelancers. Currently, earnings range from $16 to $200 per article! Marketplace article titles are specific in their needs, which are described by each publisher. If the publisher chooses your article, you get paid as soon as possible.
There’s more! If you’re a starred writer on Helium and your Marketplace submission is not chosen, you’ll receive a “kill fee” when the piece transitions to Helium.com. Get all the details here.
Other ways to earn on Helium
* Earn by rating! Because rating is critical to the community and the success of Helium, we want to reward our star raters. If you have 5 rating stars on the last day of the month, you will be paid a $3 Rating Bonus.
* Earn through writing! In addition to the Helium revenue share, you can make your writing pay off big for you through our contests and our Marketplace.
* Invite-a-writer ™: Let your smart friends do the work for you. “Invite-a-writer” is a way for you to spread the word about the great communal writing spirit at Helium, to help the site grow and to earn more money. For every person you invite who registers and writes, you earn a 5% bonus based on his or her article earnings. The more successful invites you have, the greater your Invite-a-Writer earnings. Learn more about sending invites and your My Invites pages.
* Link in: Let the World (Wide Web) do the work for you. Cast a wide net throughout the Internet to spread the word about your Helium articles. Place Helium links on your website, blog, MySpace and Facebook accounts — anywhere on the web. These links will draw people and revenue directly to your articles.
* Improve your “About Me” page: Let your persona do the work for you. Keep readers on your “About Me” page. When people are on this page, they read your listed articles and bring more traffic to those pages. This helps your potential earnings. Besides, blank space sets off the boring alarm. Show off and watch your earnings rise.
Things you can do to get more traffic to your articles
Of the top 50 writers on our site in the last three months (measured by how many people found their articles through search engines), HALF of them had their pages’ PageRanks on their About Me pages of 2 or more.
So what does this mean and what can you do to improve your PageRank?
As you might know, having a high PageRank in Google has a huge effect on whether search traffic finds its way to your web pages. On a web site, each and every page has its own PageRank. To examine your own pages’ PageRanks, you can download the Google Toolbar, go to your own About Me page and check your PageRank. Browse around to some of your articles and look at their PageRank.
The best writers on Helium have obtained PageRanks for their About Me pages of 3 and 4, although even a 2 is good for an About Me page.
How can you improve your pages’ PageRank? Here is a list of techniques that will help.
Things you can do while at Helium:
1. Write articles that rank in the top 3 of the title. Because of how the intrasite linking works for highly rated articles, you will get more PageRank by being in the top-rated articles under a title.
2. Be in the top-ranked articles of titles that have more than 10 articles. Being #1 of 1 doesn’t get you any PageRank benefit. But there is a point of diminishing returns, so adding one more article to a title that has 100 isn’t going to help you.
3. Win contests. The links that come to your About Me page from the contest leaderboards tend to help a lot in PageRank.
4. Write a lot of articles. How your articles automatically link to your About Me page and vice versa has a positive effect on your pages’ PageRank. Two hundred great articles are more than twice as good as 100 great articles.
5. Participate in the discussion boards. Again, there is a point of diminishing returns, but adding a few useful posts helps all around, although this is the least useful of the techniques mentioned here.
Things you can do at other places:
1. Get more “high-value” links from other sites to any of your articles or your About Me page—with the emphasis on “high value.” Adding links to your articles from your own blog (where the blog has no PageRank) isn’t going to help you much. Adding links to the navigational bar of your blog helps less than you think. When it comes down to it, not all links are created equal.
2. The best high-value links are ones you don’t create but come from respected members of the community who read your articles and link to them. So don’t be shy about telling other people about your work!
Here’s a recent interesting article that talks about social link building. Please read it for more ideas.
