I recently quit my job to go to college full time and we are feeling the pinch of not having that extra income. I have tried different "referral" systems that work for a month or 2 then seem to fizzle out. But you have really inspired me to keep trying. YOU, young lady, have a very good head on your shoulders and I will be watching your progress as you pay that debt down! I have signed up under you for cashcrate. I have $24.80 earned and another $30 or so pending. I signed on at Gangster too. Squido is up AND I have a blogger!! LOL! No where near as professionally done as yours, but I'm having fun all the same.<br/><br/>Keep up the good work!!<br/><br/>~MelissaLori~ ~Amy~

The sooner you are debt free the better off you will be. I think it's easier the younger your children are, because they love playing at the park, a lot.<br/><br/>We became debt free in March 2007. It is such a huge relief to now have our money working for us. We also did this after reading Dave's book. I recommend it to people all the time. He is so great!<br/><br/>I wish you the best of luck and lots of patience. It is a long road, but the journey with be unforgetable and so worthwhile. You will have an amazing story to tell!

Thank you for your suggestions. Quick question though... how do you make so much money on your cashcrate and others. I only seem to make about $25 a month. Any help would be great.

They wouldnt even let me access my blog to transfer the posts, and there was a lot of them and I had good Alexa ranking too. But, I got a new one going now.<br/><br/>Anyways, Amy, I made a comment on your health blog and gave you a GREAT link to an affiliate program that is totally health related, and they pay 50% commissions. I want to help you find ways to pay off your debt, and this program fits hand in hand with your other blog. Im gonna check out your cashcrate (sp?) thing too so I can make some extra money and also be one of your referrals to hopefully help you out too.<br/><br/>Best of luck to you,<br/>Brad Hello Amy (and Hava),

WordPress.com is a site a little like blogger, in that it’s easy to use, and sets up a blog for you.

WordPress.org is the site where you can actually download the wordpress software, which is the actual blogging software, which you can put on your own webhost (in other words, your very own website). This gives you COMPLETE control over everything about your blog. It is ENTIRELY your website. This is not for the casual blogger, however.

You cannot put affiliate links OF ANY KIND on your site.

Ads vs no ads might make the difference in that decision, I don't know. I can tell you that other than the ads part of it, I really liked WP.com a lot more than Blogger. Better set up, more control, etc. If they would just allow ads, I would have been completely happy with them, but they don't, and have no plans of ever allowing them.<br/><br/>HTH,<br/><br/>Havs I see this suggested a lot, and so I wanted to warn everyone: If you use WordPress.com, you CANNOT put AdSense ads on your site.

Now I am working to transfer my blog from WordPress.com to WordPress.org (two completely different systems in SO MANY WAYS, although they are run by the same company) just so I can put ads on my site.

Just wanted to warn anyone out there who is trying to decide which to go with. Ads vs no ads might make the difference in that decision, I don’t know.

HTH,
