The blogging world as I used to know it is not what it is today.

Lately I've been noticing small changes to the blogging world, specifically our blogs. Is it me or does it seem like it's getting harder to get jobs from the advertisers? My wife does a good job in staying busy trying to get new advertisers to fill the gap, but it seems like the most popular advertisers are not giving out as many jobs as in the past and my wife is having to work harder to find work. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with this year being an election year for a new president, or is it because of the ongoing sluggish economy, or both. I'm sure there are other bloggers who are in worse situation than we are and we should be grateful for what we do get but it seems like blogging the way I learned it is not what it used to be. I had 2 blogs and recently google stopped by and downgraded my blogs from a PR-2 to a PR-1. Not good. I miss the PR-4 blog that I once had and it seems like reaching that point is so far unreachable at this moment in time. Linking to 366 BPC @ Pinay Sahm.

I signed up for smorty

I've been blogging now for 3-4 months now and ever since i've been blogging i've been blessed with the opportunity to make some extra cash in all the spare time i have while i'm not working my full time job. My wife told me to check out smorty.com if i was serious about the blogging thing and about blog for money to make extra cash in my spare time. So i did and i've hav'nt looked back since then. I love to write post about my days with my family and about the day in general and in turn get paid to blog. Smorty connects advertisers with bloggers and in turn bloggers get paid to post the advertisers products or services on their blog. If you have extra time, why not do what i did, get paid for blogging your unique ideas. You'll have fun doing it too. Blog advertising is simple and besides, can you think of a better way to earn money while sitting at home all day in front of the t.v.?
