Writing for Money

My computer decided to strike on me. It would hang up whenever I try to watch any kind of videos whether it's videos saved on my pc or from youtube it would freeze forcing me to restart. It would even hang up even before it would finish loading windows. So what do a net addict like me do? Well I spent the whole afternoon lurking on a website of travel writers. It was such an eye opener for me. Making me realize that although it's possible to earn money being a writer it takes more than talent to get you published.

Somewhere in my past blogs I said something about not wanting to get published. So allow me to correct myself. I do want to get published but it's not my ultimate goal in wanting to write. I know it doesn't make any sense, but that's how I feel right now.

So what do I want? For now I want to write, and for me to grow I need to explore new things, experience new places, meet more people. I need to leave the cocoons of the familiar in exchange for the adventure of the unfamiliar.

But how do I do that when I don't have the means to just pack up and leave? Work for it I would in the best way I could, writing. I just hope I have what it takes to earn my place under the sun and have the freedom to do what I love doing and that is writing.

That's all for now...ciao!!!

Am standing along side of you Miss. I have always wanted to write myself and lately the inspiration I get comes from so much of what I feel and contemplate on doing. It's always possible. I believe that! Though far but not impossible!! If I ever get the means to go would love to have you along!! Pray that God is willing to allow me that. If he does you'd be the first I'd call!
PACK WE'RE GOING!!! LOL Rho.

Is Yuwie.com a Glimpse into the Future of Online Business?



Social networking site attempts to outflank MySpace & Facebook by sharing advertising revenues with end-users.

If someone only refers three of their friends, who refer three of their friends through ten levels, that one person will ultimately collect a percentage of advertising revenues from about 88,000 end-users, which can translate to about $8,800 per month for that person every month.







Norman, Okla. (PRWEB) December 3, 2007 -- Yuwie.com, one of the Internets newest social networking sites, today announced the details behind their innovative and highly successful new online business model.



MySpace and Facebook have already proven how business can make money from the efforts of end-users, said Korry Rogers, founder and CEO of Yuwie. Yuwie is proving that both businesses and end-users can finally share the $100 million per month advertising revenue that floods into the social networking market today.



Rogers explains that Yuwie's business model is based upon two core tenants: 1) End-user participation is free no sign-up fees or subscription fees are required, and 2) Yuwie currently distributes well over half of the sites advertising revenue back to participating end-users. Not only are Yuwie's end-users paid for the traffic generated for their own personal page, but also for the traffic generated by friends they refer to the site, in addition to traffic generated from their friends subsequent referrals (for up to ten (10) layers or generations of personal referrals).



"The revenue potential for end-users is striking and very exciting once you start to run the numbers explained Rogers. "If someone only refers three of their friends, who refer three of their friends through ten levels, that one person will ultimately collect a percentage of advertising revenues from about 88,000 end-users, which can translate to about $8,800 per month for that person every month."



So far, end-users response to Yuwie's new business model has completely shattered initial projections by attracting 300,000 registered members to Yuwie's brand of social networking in just five (5) months. Moreover, Yuwies growing page views, which currently total 1,800,000 per day, have catapulted the websites global ranking from below the top 100,000 list, to one of the top 2,500 websites in the world.
