How to make money from a blog? Infolinks


I added another advertiser to my blog. Infolinks is the leading provider of In-Text advertising. You will now see text link advertisements within the content of my blog. If you hover the mouse over that link, you will see a floating information bubble with an ad. Every time someone clicks on an In-Text ad, you get paid. It's as simple as that. How much do I get per click? I'm not sure yet. I'll update you guys later.

May 24, 2009
A few months ago, we expressed interest in participating in a social interaction study for a McGill research while we were at the Salon de la Marié at the Palais Des Congrès. New openings for couples are now available and we have been invited to participate! We are now doing the study. Filling out a couple of forms for the next 20 days for any social interactions that occur during the day. The forms take 10 to 15 minutes per day and we get pay $160 each or $8 per day. Very good deal! Want to take part? Check back from time to time and I'll post any studies that I find.

How to make money? Invest online!


The best way to make money is to invest. This is a complex subject which takes countless hours of research and analysis. Since I follow the markets daily, I would like to share with all of you my investment strategies. A blog about the stock market is not really relevant in my Cheap Ass in Montreal Blog. Therefore, I have decided to start a new blog: Montreal Investor. You can also find a link to my new blog in My Blog List on the left.

How to save and make money? Auto Insurance Quotes

Updated: Here is a link to my new Montreal Insurance Blog.

Today, I received a notice to pay my driver license fees. I just noticed that I haven't lost a single demerit point for the last 7 years and I should be getting a better insurance rate. I started looking for insurance online and auto insurance quotes and found several insurance companies. I have no idea which one will give me the best auto insurance coverage and the better rates even though most of them offer free online quotes.

Have you ever wondered how much money Google AdSense generated in revenue per click? Or, have you asked yourself whether your content belong in a niche market that would generate high revenue?
