Last night as I tried to go sleep, I found myself turning over the ideas for this post in my head. In our business, we’ve hired employees, some of whom were excellent, some of whom were decidedly not. To those who were excellent, we are always faced with the challenging question: how can we adequately reward those who do their job well?

So, after salary increases, additional benefits, … we were always left with this question: Is the final step to reward employees giving them a share in the business? It certainly is a step worth considering if you found your employees worth it. But how would you determine who can and who can’t become partners in this fashion?…

In my mind, the next post tries to answer some of that question. Do tag your comments on to the end as you finish reading it…. What would you think?

It’s Monday, it’s a new week, and I’m a member of a new affiliate network. You’ll be seeing the advertisements placed between posts on the main page. Why?

Well, first off, Adsense is just not performing well in those positions. I knew that for some time, but I need to break up the text of the blog with visual images. To deter advertisers from buying cheap impressions on my blog, I’ve enabled images as well. I’m hoping that it’s new position at the top of the blog will help. There will be two more ads (one images, one textual) on individual posts pages, still. But I’m not hopeful of making much money from any of these blocks.

So I replaced the ads between posts with TTZ Media (Yes, that’s John Chow’s media company)… I’ve not tweaked them properly yet, but the placement has allowed me to have a longer front page with more posts. The ads look quite good, though I may need to work on achieving the most appropriate products for my own readers. Additionally, I’m able to put them on the front page between posts (which I have extended from 3 to 10 posts) after being unhappy with the limitations imposed by Google’s Adsense. I think 3 is way too few, but ten may be too many.

I’ll be giving results at the end of the month. Let’s see what happens.

There are a ton of ways to make money on the Internet. In my blog, I’ve investigated about ten different ways or more, but I thought I’d like to introduce a website that lists40+ Ways to Make Money on the Internet. So, take your time today, and look through. See which ways you haven’t tried before, and do a little research. I already found one interesting way.

That’s it for Sunday, that amount of reading will take you a long time! Drop me a line about the ways you found to make money online! Let me know what works for you.
