No more does advertising on a blog mean using Google Adsense only. Clickbooth CPA Network is yet another CPA ad network which helps you earn money from your blog or website and in the process keeps a cut of the money the advertiser pays to advertise.

Signing Up

As with any new ad network, you need to first sign up with Clickbooth as a publisher. It’s a very simple process where you need to enter the usual stuff like name, address, etc. One thing I liked about the registration system at Clickbooth is the verification tool. You select your country & enter your phone number, and the system calls you and gives you a verification PIN code which you must then enter on the site. No e-mail verification needed !

The next step was to enter the websites. There is something weird here. You can enter as many sites as you want but choose only a single category for all the sites. That is a bit of a problem because not all of your sites will belong to the same category.

Sign-up is over. Next comes the waiting. After the sign up process, I got a message that one of their reviewers will get back to me. Only after that I will be able to view the options available.

Till then….

Smorty is another new entrant in the arena of paid review sites which connect advertisers with bloggers. Smorty is a bridge between bloggers and advertisers. Advertisers start campaigns with Smorty and Smorty delivers them to the right bloggers for publishing an opinion on their Blogs. Smorty helps you make money from your blogs.

Smorty Points

1. You will be paid with Paypal. There is no minimum amount and you will be sent the payments weekly. This is something that will entice small bloggers as they get their payments fast and quick.
2. Your blog must be at least 3 months old and you should be posting at least 2 new articles every week in your blog.

Places for improvement

1. Smorty still does not have a direct advertising facility where advertisers can browse the marketplace to select which blog they want to order their review from.
2. You do not get RSS feeds for the campaigns. So you need to keep checking if you have any offers in your account.
3. They should have had an inhouse affiliate program. You need to sign up separately for their affiliate program.

Overall in my opinion Smorty is yet another service which lets bloggers make more money by writing paid reviews. One of the places where Smorty pips its competitors is payment option. They send out the payments weekly and there is no minimum amount. Lets wait & watch how Smorty evolves !

Puzzled by the title ? Yes, you can indeed earn money for receiving SMS ads on your mobile. mGinger is a new beta service which will pay you money for receiving ads on your mobile. At first I thought this was yet another spam service which will fade away after some days. But after reading their website, I think that it is indeed possible to receive money for getting ads on your mobile.

How mGinger works ?

Once you sign up with mGinger and verify your e-mail and mobile number, you will start receiving SMS advertisements on your mobile. For each ad that you receive, you will be paid 20 paise. You can receive a maximum of 10 messages per day. But as with any other online money making service, the actual earning starts when you start referring your friends to mGinger. For the people you refer, you will receive 10 paise for each ad that they will receive. Similarly, for each of the friends that your referrals refer, you get paid 5 paise for each ad. Keep on counting, and you have an easy earning for receiving ads on your mobile.

Whats more ? mGinger has provided a calculator on their homepage to help you calculate how much you can earn.

Bonus Tip : With mGinger, you can set the time when you want to receive the ads. So if you want you can set the time to be somewhere around 3:00 AM in the morning so that the ads do not come in the way of your work.
