Scratchback is a new site started by Jim Kukral. It is a site which can be used to sell links. Signing up for Scratchback is free. Before that, I have decided to try this site in my blog and to get a link in the sidebar which will be displayed in all the pages, you have to spend as little as $10 and your site/blog will be displayed for 30 days. I have 5 spots in total and one is already sold. So there are 4 places remaining and you can get one easily by just clicking the Get In My Spots. Hurry and you can get one easily.

About ScratchBack:

You can display the widget in your sidebar using a code and you can choose how many spots to have in your blog. I have chosen 5 so that the links will get maximum exposure. Also I have placed in a way that, one need not scroll to see the links. Scratchback is at its beta and hence you will get 90% amount of what you earn. It is to be noted that, Text Link Ads cuts off 50% of what you earn.

The Options Available:

Scratchback offers various options like auto-bump. You can choose the number of days every link should stay in the blog and also the rates. The payment is very easy for advertisers. Advertisers have to enter only the keyword, URL and the amount. Once you click on buy now, you can easily pay it in few steps.

Register in Scratchback and earn 90% amount what you earn.

I have earned $9 (90% of $10) and this is most probably the easiest money I have earned. Hurry and you can get a link in this blog for as less as $10 per month. Good luck to you with the site.

If you have been blogging and making very less money from it, you should try to get sponsors to your blog. It is not very easy to get an advertiser for your blog. Problogger Darren Rowse, once wrote on how to get advertisers for your blog. You should have good content, good traffic and also targeted readers. If you have all the things stated by Darren, then you should be having a couple of advertisers by now. If you still don’t have it, then the following might be the reasons why you are not getting them (My guess). Continue Reading ->

It’s great for me to tell that I have at last stumbled 1000 pages. I joined StumbleUpon somewhere around May 2007 and started to use the site only after July 2007. Before July, I never knew how to Stumble pages or how to find new pages. I never knew the beautiful features StumbleUpon has. To tell the truth, I’m not a great at Digg or Netscape, but I’m pretty good in at StumbleUpon. Few days back I reached stumbling 1000 posts/websites.

Why Choose StumbleUpon?

One of my article, few months back, was stumbled by many people and it got me good number of readers. Few reasons why I choose StumbleUpon are:

1. It drives good traffic.

2. It sends traffic to articles which are even a month old.

3. You don’t need 20 or 30 thumbs up to get traffic. Even a couple of stumbles can get many readers.

4. StumbleUpon is for blogs of all topics. It doesn’t concentrate on a specific niche.

5. The chances for your articles to get famous is more. Reaching the buzz page for a specific category is not very tough and that can get you from 2000-15000 or even more visitors.

6. You can make friends more easily.

7. After all, it feels great to be a StumbleUpon user (Yes it feels great to be users of other sites too).

After reaching 1000+ pages of giving thumbs up and rarely thumbs down, my vote has started to matter a lot. My stumbles have sent from 50-100 visits to few blog posts. Not only pages, but also the number of fans you have and number of pictures and videos you have rated matter. I have 65 Fans (At the moment of writing the post). I will be adding a lot more users from today. So if you have a StumbleUpon account, then add me from here and then if possible send me a message there.
