TURNING my TIME INTO MONEY

How I have done it :  2012  -  2018

The Sites that have served Me Best,  so far

(Right off the bat, do KNOW that I'm no big time guru, nor have I amassed lots of money, nor do I guarantee anything.)

 If YOU want to, You CAN.

That's all I want you to know, really!

Welcome!  Obviously, I'm not here personally to chat, and probably hard at work with what I WANT to do and preparing for my future!


In 2012 I discovered what I had to do after about 2 years of wandering around the WWW, not understanding a thing, but knowing only the one thing that was driving me:


* I WANTED TO WORK FROM HOME, USING THE WWW TO CREATE AN INCOME *


I discovered I had to create a list and have a website


But, I had no money!


(For a quick glance at my (untidy) list of 'things to do', here's the ONE url to my first free website which I've built up over the years:  http://rcarosin.webs.com/) 


I had found webs.com and created that first free website so that I only had to advertise ONE url to the WWW'ebbers, plus have the list handy so that I could consult it every time I couldn't remember which way to go forward with the many sites I'd joined...


Here's the pick of the bunch that I log into every day, sometimes a lot more than once, to collect the pennies and points that add up, like runs in a cricket match...


I have also been able to help a load of Friends who needed a website, and here's an example of one of them:  THE SHARP GUYS


In order of importance, here they are:



0:00/9:50
FIRST I LOG INTO MY LIFE WHEN I BECOME CONSCIOUS OF BEING ALIVE upon waking...  Then begins the job of:
LOOKING AFTER NUMBER ONE so that I shall always and hopefully be enabled to look after those who turn to me for help...  I know that I am able to always reach out and help myself (not like a thief, though!) to the many legit opportunities there are for those who WANT to make a difference in their own lives and those around them without having to resort to any violence or crime.

Listening to JOAN ARMATRADING on MIX FM 93.8 playing now!  And remembering SHAWN COLVIN's beautiful classic:  "I don't know why..."  Yes, it does seem like I always wake up in some kind of revolution...  Oh, it's not easy to keep the peace, but, I try!

So, yes, if you CLICK ON MY IMAGE OR HERE you'll be taken to a website where they sell amazing products at awesome prices and I earn a commission there from sales I generate.  The pic of the canvas bag with my art printed on it, was a surprise pressie I bought for myself when I was testing the buying and selling side of zazzle.com.  It was delivered and I still love it dearly!

Start shopping the VERY BEST deals on the COOLEST gear: Top brand cell phones, tablets, ultra books, drones, arduino, RC toys, smart gear & mobile accessories. What's more,we offer: Outdoor survival, Sports gear, Home & garden, Hobbies...... Etc.


This was the first site I joined, and they haven't ever let me down.  I go here every single day (You can click the image to be taken to the website to investigate further for yourself) Some time ago They changed some things, and are now called ysense xxx  The link will still take you to their site!  Yay!

I have a personal affiliate link for Toluna,  it's a great site and I earn a good few dollars there.

I have no problems and pop in every day.

https://za.toluna.com/referral/rcarosin

There are lots more survey sites I've joined and they're listed on my Things To Do website (http://rcarosin.webs.com/)

You're more than welcome to browse on that very long list to where I have the Survey Sites listed, to join and earn more

Here I have no personal referral affiliate link, but with YouTube, I was able to fulfill dreams I didn't even know I had.

Plus, it's an excellent way to advertise, should you wish to do so.

I've been with YouTube since 2011 and they offered to monetize my account.

Gees, I had no idea of what I was doing in that first year!

Yet, here I am, with my stories and jokes and music videos, art attempts, etc., and I'm totally chuffed as, last year January, I finally earned enough to cash out R1000!

Nope, I haven't got any viral videos, but every cent counts!

Maybe you have the imagination to make videos to capture the hearts and minds of many people.

Who knows, but it's definitely worth a thought.

Have a look at what goes viral.  Also have a look at how other people have show-cased talents similar to yours.  See what YOU are able to create.

Here's the link to my YouTube page:  

2018 UPDATE  :  GOOGLE NOTIFIED ME THAT i NEED TO HAVE 1000 SUBSCRIBERS AND A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF HOURS VIEWED SO THAT I COULD BECOME A MONETIZED CHANNEL AGAIN - so please, if you have a few minutes, please subscribe and watch a few minutes...  I'd really appreciate it!  I ONLY NEED ANOTHER 645 SUBSCRIBERS AND THEN i SHALL BE EARNING AGAIN!
UPDATE:  6 AUGUST 2020 - YUP, SO ME, ABSOLUTE IDIOTA, STILL HAVEN'T GOT ENOUGH SUBSCRIBERS, BUT, NO PROBLEMS NOW THAT I'VE LEARNED HARD LESSONS ABOUT PUTTING OUT QUALITY VIDEOS!  I MEAN, I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT QUALITY VIDEOS ARE FULLY, BUT KNOW ENOUGH TO KNOW IT COSTS BUCKS TO LEARN AND USE THE SITES THAT OFFER THE KNOWHOW AND TOOLS XXX  ANYWAYS, AS LONG AS I'M LOVED THROUGHOUT MY DAY, I'M HAPPY AND CAN'T BE BOTHERED NOW WITH THE NITTY GRITTIES OF MAKING OODLES OF MONEY XXX  LIFE IS GOOD ON THE EDGE, AS LONG AS I DON'T GO OVER THE LEDGE COZ I'VE HAD TO LEARN THAT I ACTUALLY DON'T HAVE WINGS!  LOL!  BUT, ANYWAYS, GLAD YOUTUBE STILL HOSTS MY VIDS AND I HAVE A GOOD TIME USING THEM AS REFERENCES xxx OH, I STILL FEEL LIKE A TOTAL IDIOT!  But, if i change it to idealist, then perhaps i can get away with it through the day XXX

I love IBO TOOL BOX!

It rocks when it comes to FREE ADVERTISING!

There is an upgraded version for those who need more, but I've been happy with my Free IBO and the other sites Kris, the owner, has developed over the years.

Yes, one has to learn the ropes.  

There is a lovely network of people there, all who are quite willing to help with information and guidance.

Are you on your own on the WWW?

Of course, yes - because YOU make the decisions.

MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS.

Do your homework and find out for Yourself what works for you.

Build up a name for yourself - whether it be a logo, photograph or just a label.  It is your individual fingerprint/identification.

In the Old Days, they used to tell me "The World Is Your Oyster".  

Now I'm sure I can easily say:  "The World Is At Your FingerTips!"

There are lots of free advertising sites listed on my original website

IBO is just one of my favourites...


I'm posting this important development!  I signed up with Songtradr  (http://www.songtradr.com/raine.carosin) as they offered me a month free, so I'm hoping that I'll be able to create some incoming revenue from selling some of my songs!

It's an exciting venture I'm on...  I started selling some of my music via Reverbnation, but I'm finding that Songtradr offers a whole load more opportunities, and an easier paying method (because the pricing suits my pocket).

Well, onwards, eh?  UPDATE:  Couldn't afford it, so a free member now...

IMPORTANT INSERTED UPDATE (10 July 2017)


I went ahead and published two paperbacks, which are also in e-book form at Amazon/Kindle!

I'm so chuffed - another dream come true!

WoW!


The one to the left, and another one called PITYFUL WANDERER by Raine Carosin...


All for FREE!


AND!


I finally was able to put up some of music for sale, and use some of the buckeroos I'd saved through 2017 to buy my own domain name!


Check this out!  http://www.rainecarosin.space/



Well, I did a wild thing!

I made a short teevee AD and put it on my YouTube channel (public viewing) and used the url at BRANDZOOKA, along with the coupon code that I received for being a first time user, and GOT AN AN AD PROMOTING MY Music in the USA, UK and Canada!  (One can choose one's own countries).  

The site is super easy to use, f'sure!  

The hardest thing I had to do was to make a video ad!  (My equipment is aging, just like me, so my mouse is disobedient and loses the 'cheese' every now and again, and the movie maker has some features that just won't work!)  See video above

But, it's done and it feels so good to go to sleep knowing my ad is working around the World!  Incredible!

I'll post a coupon code if Brandzooka can give me one to post here for first time users!   (CHECK AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS WRITING - Yay!  I got a coupon for you!)

I had such a blast!  Wow!  The World certainly can be one's oyster!  With my voucher, I didn't have to pay any extra monies and used only the limit of my coupon.  If you've got bucks, well, what's stopping you?  It's a great medium, f'sure!

GOT A COUPON CODE FOR YOU!  Yup, Jenna and the Team there made my day over and over for the rest of my life:  check this out -  Jenna at Brandzooka wrote to me:  "I just made a special coupon for you to share: makeitraine!  It's good for $50 towards a campaign and you're welcome to share it with whomever you'd like!"  UPDATE 6 AUGUST 2020!  Wow!  Seems like the saying MAKE IT RAIN went viral, and I was too stoopid in my own problems to LOOK at my awesome GIFTS!  Oh, THANK YOUS!  You Guys!  Wow!  Okay, this seat is hot under my butt, so please understand how silly I feel!  Oh, I'm nuts!  But, Yous know that I'm HOPING BIG-TIME FOR Y'ALL TO BE WELL AND HAVE BEAUTIFUL LIVES!  STAY AWESOME & KEEP MAKING GOOD MEMORIES XXX  Love Yous! xxx  (Oh, how am I supposed to deal with this today?  WoW!  It's incredible!  Oh, Heaven's, can you see how 'the pieces just fit'?  Wow!!)  Remember that GOD doesn't let Yous down, but the flesh can!  So, keep up good works!  It makes MY day beautiful with God <3

Me and the gaming site called FantaZ go back long time - but they had some refurbishing to do, and I kinda forgot all about the site until I got an email just now telling me that they're UP AND RUNNING AGAIN!

You're gonna love this site, I just know it!

Join me and see if you can beat my score, if someone hasn't already!

FantaZ Membership also allows you the ability to create Private Tournaments and earn hosting fees, while at the same time building a residual income.

Individuals are not the only ones who can benefit from FantaZ’s incredible ZBO Compensation Plan and technical platform. You can now monetize your business database of customers and employees in a completely new and exciting way.  https://www.fantaz.com/join/rainecarosin

I went nuts and joined QuickAppNinja, and created 17 Puzzle Game apps and went through  the process of monetizing them and uploading them to Google Play Store!

They're FREE to play, and I earn from advertising.

This one was hard work for me who's no natural geek, but, in today's climate, it's good I stay indoors and keep myself busy!  Try it!  You may just create the best game!

PayPal has been like my right-hand Man when it comes to working the finances on the WWW.  A totally MUST HAVE to assist with the future of monetary transactions.  There are lots of other PayProcessors - find what you need.  Remember to do your research before you jump into anything.  (You can click the image to be taken to the website to investigate further for yourself)

And this is what I really look like, without the false eyelashes and the make up and the hair blow-dried and the false teeth...

Yeah, image counts a lot in this old vain World.

I do a make-over once a year to keep my public profile pics up to date and looking flashy and dashy and creatively appealing to the eye.

But, I'm also a down to earth, honest person who is not here to fool anyone with false promises and scams.

So, remember:  you got your NAME and your IMAGE.  

Do the best you can to create something you and Yours may look back on without regrets!  (UPDATE 6 AUG 2020 To keep up with how i'm looking 'nowadays', you can check out my Smule videos on YouTube!  (BTW:  Smule is an awesome instant brilliant music video site for singing artists!  The APP WORLD AND CELLULARS ARE INCRED!  I just saw that SAMSUNG has brought out a newie, and how I'd love to be able to get my grubby paws on that!  Anyways, learning a lot about LIFE IN GENERAL during THE YEAR OF PERFECTING ONE'S VISION TO GO ON TO 2021 )  I'm also on TIKTOK being an absolute 'nana!  Otherwise, yes, my FACEBOOK was deleted in a BIG HURRY by me because of some really awfully horrid idiots calling me on messenger showing me how they were playing with their members!  Y''know what I mean!  I think I'm only going to get really embarrassed when I can wrap my mind around HOW ON EARTH DO PEOPLE GET REDUCED INTO DOING SUCH THINGS?  Anyways, I'm glad for my little niche on the WWW, and VERY GRATEFUL AND THANKFUL TO GOD FOR ALLOWING ME TO BE MYSELF amid the chaos of trying to understand why, through all this time, there are still MURDERERS, KILLERS, RAPISTS, MOLESTERS, PEDOPHILES, SCAMMERS, JUNKIES and CARELESS PEOPLE OUT THERE...  I learned NOT TO BE AN ASS, but a GOOD KID OF THE UNIVERSE, CREATED BY GOD with the FREE WILL GIFT in HIS FAVOUR as I like it to be xxx  MAY YOU ASK FOR GOD'S BLESSINGS ON EVERYTHING YOUS DO SO THAT YOUS, TOO, MAY ENJOY THE FULLNESS OF BEING at ONE with ALL CREATION xxx
I'm far toO arty-farty and lazy to go the whole hog and rush myself into an early grave, SO I TAKE IT EASY AS POSSIBLE ...
However, my 'work' is a 24/7/365 job
...AND, I'm a Mental Case on Disability who's not allowed to work in the 'real world', BUT I'M MAKING AND DOING THE BEST I CAN with what i've got TO FEEL USEFUL AND A PART OF THE WWWHOLE!
