Earning with Inspiration for Success

For a long time I have been in doubt how to earn with this site, as I didn’t and don’t want the site to be filled with all kinds of (random) advertisements. However, one of my original goals with this site was to earn, get rich, like the original author of the Huffington Post site. But just opening that site doesn’t make me happy, as I am not sure if this is what the original author(s) wanted. But doing some more research I see now that it didn’t start as a blog, so maybe this is what they wanted.

Anyhow, I want to keep this site some kind of blog, some kind of informational site about success, preferably an inspiration to be successful.

But as I may be kind of successful with this site as it still exists and is still somehow growing, I am still not successful in finance and career, so I am still not the sample I want to be, the inspirational force that may help you become successful if you feel desperate like I did and still kind of do.

So ‘finance’ means something like ‘earning’, and earning with content seems to be to mix it with selling stuff, advertising stuff. And I always thought that was a bad thing, but I realize there is nothing bad in advertising, as it is just presenting (new) products to people who may be interested to buy it.

So I was thinking what I am selling, and part of those things are being an affiliate of some companies and programs. And spread through the site there are some links with my affiliation code, e.g. to Amazon, but I thought I might as well summarize it on one page, which is why I am creating this page now.

And affiliation means to me I only want to ‘sell’ it if I believe in it. Or at least be honest about what it is if I don’t believe in it (myself).

My affiliations

So what are my affiliations, at least if I can remember them all?

Well, what comes to mind now is:

• Agoda;
• Amazon;
• Namecheap;
• SFI;
• TripleClicks.

So let’s make a paragraph on each of them below, of course including my affiliate link, so my effort of making this site my also return some revenue for me.

Agoda

Yes, nothing beats Agoda I guess when it comes to hotel bookings. I used to do something similar with my sites Luzon Hotels, Mindanao Hotels and Visayas Hotels, but over time Agoda seemed to be a powerful force that could not be beaten. And I know there are more hotel booking sites, but in my experience Agoda is the most present, so somehow the best.

And only after a friend introduced me to the Agoda affiliation program I started to use it, link from it from Luzon Hotels, Mindanao Hotels and Visayas Hotels and some other hotel sites I own, like Malberry Suites and Limketkai Hotel. And at first nothing seemed to happen, but right now every month I earn a bit commission from Agoda. And that is fair as I help customers find a way to find and book hotels online, where I believe Agoda is the best site for that.

Amazon

Well, I guess most of you know Amazon. And I think it developed into something great as I ordered some stuff there and it arrived perfectly, like books in my Kindle account and some physical items even here in The Philippines, and pretty quick.

So yes, I can certainly recommend to buy at Amazon as I believe they do a great job.

Namecheap

For a long time I have been registering most of my domains with Namecheap. And even though they are not always the cheapest (anymore), they do a good job and have excellent service, so I can certainly recommend Namecheap for registering your domains.

SFI

SFI is a Multi Level Marketing concept that, among other things, operates the TripleClicks website. I joined SFI kind of accidentally in September 2015, but started working it in December 2015 when I realized it may just be the thing for me to earn (additional) income as in 2012 or so I was introduced to Amway, a concept I never liked before, but after joining some meetings I learned to appreciate how it works and how it could work for me. Unfortunately due to Philippine law I was not able to join Amway, but now with SFI I think I found a concept that suits me, even though it takes more time and effort than I thought to earn and even though especially the TripleClicks part is not fully developed yet in my opinion.

TripleClicks

A friend of mine asked me a favor around September 2015, like playing a game every week on TripleClicks, which would only cost me five minutes or so, as he was creating a ‘league’. And I had no clue what it was all about, but I decided I could spend five minutes a week to do someone a favor.
