How to Make Money With Google Adwords
Feb 12th
It seems counter-intuitive to say that you can make money with a service that charges you for every click it generates. For those of you who don’t know, Google Adwords is a service that allows you to create an ad and choose keywords for when you want your ad to appear. The ultimate goal is to have your ad show up in search results when a customer is ready to by or sign up for a service and it just looking for a link to get them there. More >

How to Make $5 and Get Paid Within 5 Days
Nov 8th
People always say the one thing that sucks about trying to make money online is that you have to wait forever to get paid or you don’t even get paid at all. Sometimes that’s true, but in this case it’s complete b.s.
If you want to make money and get paid within a few days it’s possible… in fact, it’s pretty easy. You just need a PayPal account and decent writing abilities.
Head over to Associated Content and register as a writer. Spend some time researching available categories and write a good article. It doesn’t even have to be that long. Really folks, it’s the quality that matters, not the quantity. You can even write a poem. Seriously, watch for grammar mistakes and write with detail, authority, and in an organized manner.
Submit the article for an upfront payment. You could have your article rejected if you didn’t write something they were looking for or if your article had spelling or grammar mistakes. In that case, get your crap together and start again! Never give up!
Most likely, if the article is of decent quality, you will be offered at least $5.00. My first article submission received an offer of $10.00. You can reject, but if you’re planning on making any money, I would accept. Your money will show up in your PayPal account within a few days. See how easy it is to make money online?

Guaranteed to Make Millions! Top 5 Ways to Spot the Fakes
Dec 22nd
How many times have you been told you are guaranteed to make millions with a program? How many times has it actually worked? I’m so fed up with hearing this guarantee that anytime I see it I instantly throw out the idea of trying that money making program. I wish the people who create this programs would give you the facts upfront. It’s time to catch these bogus programs in their tracks.
- They tell you “you can earn up to $1,000 a day.”
- There is a disclaimer at the end saying that the results mentioned above are not typical
- There are no tax forms to fill out.
- It only costs $29.95.
- It’s not a job opportunity, just a guide telling you websites to go to.
5 Ways to Spot Programs That Don’t Work
It can be so frustrating trying to find online money making programs that actually work. There are so many paid survey sites out there that give you a list of survey sites for $29.95 but promise that you’ll make hundreds a day. Of course it is possible to make this amount of money… it would just take a lot of hard work and a lot of time that could be used more productively elsewhere. So, how do you find the programs that work? Look for websites that don’t charge for a database of websites. Look for programs that tell you upfront that you probably won’t make hundreds of dollars a day. Most importantly of all, look for programs that have gotten good reviews.
One thing that I’ve noticed is that $29.95 is not an investment that will get you a large return. If it were, then wouldn’t everyone be shelling out $29.95? Sometimes you have to invest a little more money than you’re normally comfortable with and you can expect a better return. That’s not to say all programs that cost $100 work… (I wish). Follow your gut and don’t ever invest more money or time than you can afford.
Should You Have to Pay to Make Money?
Jun 11th
My biggest annoyance with making money online is having to pay websites who promise that I’ll make thousands of dollars. It would be fine with me if they took a small percentage of my earnings (maybe around 3%) if I used their program to make money online. At least then I would know that their program actually works, or else they wouldn’t make any money either. Everywhere I read things like, “You shouldn’t have to pay to make money!” and “Getting a job should be free.” But since we’re working online and only completing paid surveys or similar, are we technically getting a job? Even if we are, everyday people pay companies to help them find jobs.
By now you’re probably thinking that this is outrageous and that I don’t know what I’m talking about. Personally, I think that making money online should be free. All these paid survey companies and paid offer companies are making more money off of everything we do for them than they pay us. One thing I realized is that I’ve never had to pay to sign up with a paid survey website. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever had to pay for signing up with any “get paid to” website. The only sites that I’ve seen that require a fee are the ones who claim they have the method or program that will make you hundreds of dollars.
So, you have to think; are you paying to get a job or are you paying for a program that shows you how to get paid surveys, or likewise, online. Technically when you sign up for a paid survey site you aren’t getting a job, and they clearly state that in the Terms and Conditions. Unfortunately most of these paid survey programs just throw you a list of paid surveys that you could have gotten anywhere else for free and give you barely any advice whatsoever. Even worse is that on top of the fee they get for your membership they make money every time you sign up for a website through them. Basically, they could have given you a free membership and still made a ton of money off of you. Makes it feel like you’re being taken advantage of, huh?
All in all, you shouldn’t have to pay to make money online. Some ways of making money online, such as affiliate programs, may be more profitable if you invest a little money in advertising, however in order to take paid surveys or do other “get paid to” programs, you should never have to pay. After trying those programs that promise you’ll make hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars, I can honestly say that they do not work and that all the information they offer can be gotten for free at other places (like Flurbl.com!).
Feel free to take advantage of our free paid survey database and send us an email (support@flurbl.com) if you have questions about making money online or if there’s something you’d like to be written about.

$1000 a Week?
May 27th
So you’re sick of paid surveys; what else is there to do? Paid surveys are pushed as the most profitable way to make money online, but are they? What about paid to click, paid to surf, and paid offers? You read about all those people making $1,000 to $10,000 a week solely from filling out surveys and getting referrals, is it true?
For the past 3 years I have been working my butt off online to try and make some money with paid surveys. What have I gotten out of it? Pretty much just a headache and a few hundred dollars. I’ve filled out surveys left and right and I still don’t make what some sites promise. I’m sure this has happened to some of you as well.
What’s the problem then? I’m working harder than ever filling out surveys and it’s just not possible to make $1000 in a week. The trick is to find survey sites that pay for referrals. For instance; MySurvey.com pays the equivalent of $1.50 for each qualifying referral you send to them. You get them 10 referrals a week and that’s $15 a week. Say you do that for 10 sites offering a similar reward, then your effort turns into $150 per week.
The more sites you sign up with, the more opportunities you have to get referrals. Getting referrals is key to earning a substantial amount of money online. Even if you only get 5% of your referral’s earnings that would mean that for every $5 survey they take, you get a quarter. if you have 100 referrals averaging 2 $5 surveys a week per referral that’s $50 a week.
The top referrers have a little over 1,000 referrals; meaning they average around $500 to $1000 per week (between $26,000 and $52,000 per year). The only thing these people do is get referrals. I understand that it is easier said than done, however once they get referrals the money rolls in on auto pilot.
This is true for every type of online money making site. Whether it’s paid to click or paid offers, getting referrals is the way to earning big money. This isn’t to say that you should stop taking paid surveys and completing paid offers.
Imagine if all of your referrals simply stopped doing that and just aimed for getting referrals? You would earn no money. Taking just 2 $5 paid surveys a week lands you and extra $520 per year. Also, getting paid to click or read emails may only get you about $.25 a week for each site, but say you’re signed up at 10 sites; that’s an extra $130 per year.
Getting started with making money online is the hardest part. Once you get going you just have to sit back and check on things once in awhile.
