Tools that will help you on your online earning campaign  

Greetings everyone. This post is about tools that you can use in order to make your online earning life easier. I am going to mention tools that I use, so I do have personal experience on them. Let's start.

Most of the tools are add-ons for Firefox. If you do not use Firefox, then do so.

***PTC EARNERS***

What's the difference between a successful PTC earner and a not successful earner?
a) Number of referrals
b) Investment capital
c) He got golden membershipz!

And the answer is: None of the above.

The A and Z for earning in the PTC world, is to be O-R-G-A-N-I-Z-E-D. That's ORGANIZED.

At the moment I am a member of 9 PTC sites. Imagine having to bookmark them at my toolbar. There is no space for that! I got other important stuff up there too! So what to do? Something that would be easy to locate, understand, and visualize.

Ladies and gentleman, I introduce you the Speed-Dial Firefox Addon (not a referral link: https://addons.mozilla.org/el/firefox/addon/4810 )

Speed dial is like your mobile's key-pad. You can make it your home page too. It has 9 keys (from 1-9) in which each one of them you can assign a website. The pad then loads the website's thubnail so you can easily understand which site is where.

What if you got 15 sites you want to bookmark? Speed Dial has tabs. That means that the first tab has 9 buttons, then you can create a second tab with 9 more buttons, a third one, a fourth one, etc etc.

Look at my screenshot from my own firefox. This specific tab shows my PTC sites: (not a referral link) http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/1452/mylot.jpg

You see how nice it looks? You can click with your mouse-wheel each thubnail and a new tab will open with this site, which makes it much easier.

**BLOG WRITTERS**

All of us who are blog writters, know how hard it was (and is) at the beggining to drive any traffic at our website. I am not speaking of traffic exchangers. This is all phony. I am speaking of the old good organic - driven - I got backlinks traffic.
There are many tools for lot of platforms. The msot common we use is blogspot. So ladies and gentlemen (drum sound)........ Intoducing you: Windows Live Writer, Zemanta Firefox Addon, Zemanta Windows Live Writer Plug-in.

What is Windows Live Writer: It's the ideal interface for writing your blog. There is a setting too, that Windows Live Writer pings a number of URLs (you specify which URLS) whenever you post something new. WoW? Yes. Get it here: (not a referral link) http://download.live.com/writer
Here's how it looks: (not a referral link) http://img186.imageshack....

What is Zemanta in General: When you write a new blog post, Zemanta "reads" your post, and then comes up with all the related articles from other users that use Zemanta too. That way you earn "points". The more "points" you get, the more chances of your posts to be chosen by others. Be aware that "points" are fiction. There is no point-counter. It's all rellative.

Using Zemanta with Windows Live Writer: You have a perfect environment to write at (Windows Live Writer) and the Zemanta! You can get the plug-in here: (not a referral link) http://www.zemanta.com/download/livewriter/

Using Zemanta with Blogspot's default writer: You just want to log in at your blogspot account and write your posts. No stupid Microsoft software or whatever. Well, would you like to use Zemanta with that though? Of course you do. Download the Zemanta Firefox Add-on (not a referral link) https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7571

**AUTO-SURFERS**

Wanna see a movie while letting your browser surf? Stupid ads from the surfed sites interrupt your movie ? Well here is Flash-Block. (not a referral link) https://addons.mozilla.org/el/firefox/addon/433

Enable this add-on for firefox, and all Flash movies will not auto-play :]
(if you want to open a PTC site, you have to disable Flash-Block, because most the of them use Flash)

***FOR EVERYONE***

Did you find a post that you don't wanna miss? Or a youtube video that explains a lot? Do you think though that a bookmark would be toomuch?

Introducing "Read it Later" Firefox Add-on (not a referral link) https://addons.mozilla.org/el/firefox/addon/7661

There is arrow near the URL bar, so if you want to save that site just click this arrow. Then t will be saved at a visual bookmark book which you can open whenever you want.
Save pages to read later with just one click. When you have time, access your reading list from any computer or phone, even without an internet connection!
Here's how it looks (not a referral link): http://img697.imageshack....


If I have time and found something else (or actually realise that I use a tool which helps) be sure I will make a "Tools that will help you on your online earning campaign 2"

Hope I helped.
