#internet monetization

[finnsworlds]

I hope YouTube knows their new way of censorship is going to inspire a whole new wave of elsagate content and predators taking advantage of younger kids through bypassing content restrictions. AI isn't going to be able to stop content slop and badly disguised fetish content from reaching children on the platform.

And the ID verification thing? This is a terrible idea. Data breaches happen all the time (even with YouTube) so how do you expect to keep those on your platform safe when you're in possession of all their IDs and you somehow manage to spill the metaphorical bag containing those IDs on the ground in the middle of a busy street????? This is like the Tea controversy all over again.

For those who are confused why all of this is bad, this is not about kid's safety on the internet. There are ways to keep kids safe that doesn't involve spotty AI algorithms, or involve giving your personal info out to big companies (even though you willingly do that without even noticing anyways). This is a problem concerning censorship.

There are no positives in this, you can think "oh, maybe it'll stop child exploitation better!! You know, considering that YouTube is making it so that only adults can apply for monetization" I don't need to explain why this logic is deeply flawed, do I?? The parent is still able to get the money, still able to exploit their child, and still none of the money goes to the child.

Now, I don't think it's exactly realistic to say "everyone should boycott YouTube" because that's kind of the main platform I personally consume content on, and it's not gonna be easy, but I'm going to make the choice to boycott YouTube once all of this goes into effect.

Unfortunately, I also use their music service, so I'll have to find a workaround for that (before you say Spotify, they're having the same issue that YouTube is having and is arguably matched in evilness when it comes to a company not giving a fuck about their content creators or users), but I'm really really not surprised this is all happening right now. If any of you are interested in learning more about the internet's current censorship crisis, Lexitorias put out a video about it very recently that I watched and informed me about how banking companies such as Visa and MasterCard and Christian fundamentalists are pushing censorship by threatening to withdraw from other companies' payment processes and heres another I highly recommend.

All of this is saddening and it just means that the public needs to make the conscious decision whether it's worth it or not to even stay on YouTube. I want to support my favorite content creators, but I don't want to support Google or YouTube. I may have to switch over to Patreon but at the end of the day we need an alternative platform. All the alternatives that are currently out there happen to be overrun with gore videos and certain forms of content I don't want to get into but on the brightside there are places to turn, just not exactly the same as what we're used to.

also I'm aware YouTube already made a Twitter response, I don't plan on addressing it because it's not notable, it's the same thing they've been saying for years with added: "AI is better than human censorship" which, it's not as we all know, and this just means that we need to leave YouTube sooner than later, due to the insane usage of AI that is absolutely destroying our environment.

Rant is over and done, you should switch over to the indie web btw!!!! It's awesome over there

TLDR: WE NEED A YOUTUBE ALTERNATIVE NOW

Are Paid Online Surveys Really Worth It?

Welcome to another episode of Fast Blackhat Money, the show all about internet monetization. When I talk about how I make money online, people will always ask me; “Can you make money doing online surveys?” It seems that the younger generation has at least gotten interested on how to start making residual online income. It also seems like they turn to Google, and somehow come across online surveys. If you don’t know the basics of IM, it seems like it could be feasible. I mean, online surveys are easy. Anyone can answer questions. The only problem is it’s time intensive.

I don’t Believe Online Surveys Are Worth It

I personally don’t feel that online surveys are worth it. I feel this way for a number of reasons. The biggest is that it’s time intensive. It takes a long time to complete a survey. Sure, it might take longer to write a blog post and get it ranked. It might even take longer to get conversions or ad revenue. But the payouts for blogging and SEO will be higher in the end. There’s affiliate programs that will pay well over $50 per conversion. If that content you write makes one conversion within it’s lifetime, it’ll pay much higher than the single paid survey.

The second beef I have with online surveys is that there’s no lifetime revenue to it. As soon as you complete the survey, it’s finished, you get your “points” and must do another to keep making money from the website. With just about every other form of internet monetization, it’s possible to create a recurring revenue stream, as long as there’s traffic being driven to the various website properties. Whether it’s form organic Google traffic, social media channels or whatever else. As long as the ads and affiliate links are live, they have earning potential. The same can’t be said about online surveys.

Paid Survey Alternatives

Here are some very newbie friendly alternatives to online paid surveys. All of these alternatives should be able to pay out way more than online surveys if done right. Keep in mind, it will take time to build up sufficient traffic to really start seeing income. Once it happens, it’ll be a nice residual income.

Become A YouTube Publisher – Becoming a YouTube publisher is a great way for anyone to start making money. Also be sure to start a Blogspot blog and start blogging. If you’re a new publisher and webmaster, it might take some time to become AdSense qualified. This is a prerequisite for monetizing the actual YouTube videos. It’s still possible to monetize your videos through affiliate marketing in the mean-time.

Build A Niche Site – This does require a little upfront investment for a domain name and hosting, but it will definitely pay off in the end. When you’re the webmaster for your own site, you have complete control over the content and methods of monetization. Rock some display ads, affiliate programs and anything else you deem worthy. It takes a little while and a little knowledge of basic SEO, but it’s definitely worth it in the end. Here’s a guide to building a WordPress site to get you started.

NSFW Tumblr Blog – If you don’t mind working with adult content, this is a very easy and newbie friendly tactic for making a residual income. NSFW (Not Safe For Work) photoblogs can easily be automated through a number of different techniques. Tumblr is real liberal about ad placement (though they’re getting stricter). It was a lot more profitable when you could put JuicyAds pop-unders and redirects. Actually, it was ridiculously profitable for what it was. The ad choices are shrinking, but there’s still options. Check out the linked-to guide for more details.

Start Blogging For Free – If you don’t have any experience with HTML and don’t want to pay the initial cost of a domain name and hosting, you can still get started blogging today. Blogspot makes it very easy to setup a blog. This is actually a very smart move, because you’ll slowly get exposed to HTML and what’s possible. By writing content and getting it ranked in Google, you’ll learn very important aspects of SEO which will really help when you start building a real site. Blogspot can be monetized with AdSense as well as affiliate marketing.

Affiliate Marketing Through Twitter – I’ve gotten email marketing and web hosting commissions just through tweeting. By following the right hashtags and @mentioning the people with links to your content or just affiliate links, it’s possible to earn commissions. Remember, some affiliate programs pay over $50 per commission. So one tweet, if done right, has the potential to earn some major money. Much better than paid surveys and doesn’t even require a website.

Fiverr / SEOClerks Method For Making Money

This is a great method for making money off Fiverr and SEOClerks and it’s real similar to the strategy on making money off Fiverr and Craigslist. Instead of Craigslist, we’re going to be using SEOClerks. SEOClerks is a website for people to buy, sell and trade various inbound marketing services. Many of these same services are offered on Fiverr. The trick here is real simple; You find some good SEO gigs on Fiverr and resell them on SEOClerks.

Some Fiverr Gigs That Work

Content Curation – All SEO, whether it’s onsite or offsite requires good content in order to be done right. Therefore, there’s a huge demand for content for SEOs and a lot of SEOs offering content curation. Find some good writers on Fiverr and start selling the gigs on SEOClerks.

Social Media Marketing – There are plenty of social media gigs on Fiverr. These range from tweeting out specific messages to gaining YouTube likes and so on. Find some good social media services being offered on Fiverr and resell them on SEOClerks.

Linkbuilding – This is sketchy business in my opinion. Especially $5 linkbuilding. Still, you might be able to find some small gems that won’t get you penalized. Be very careful outsourcing linkbuilding gigs.

Good luck! And make some money.

This is a real simple money making tactic that uses both Fiverr and Craigslist. Fiverr is a website where people sell all sorts of services for only $5. Craigslist, a website I’m sure you all know about, is a classifieds site where people post a lot of requested services. This is a real simple grind. A lot of the services being requested on Craigslist are available by people on Fiverr. The trick is to play broker.

  Match Requested Services To Fiverr Gig

The first grind is going onto Craigslist and find people looking for the same services that can be found on Fiverr. Usually the person on Craigslist is willing to pay more than $5 for whatever they’re looking for. Design work is great because there’s plenty of Fiverr gigs dealing with graphic design. Simply outsource the gig to the Fiverr designer and sell the finished product to the person via Craigslist. You pocket the difference.

  Place A Service Ad On Craigslist

The second grind is to find a Fiverr service and start marketing it through Craigslist. For example, if someone will do logo work on Fiverr, sell discount custom business logos for only $25 a pop on Craigslist. Since you’ve already found an awesome Fiverr designer that your comfortable working with, this works incredibly great.
