Sometime ago, someone told me, or maybe I read it somewhere [it_WAS_a long time ago] of this blog called Centrinads, whose tagline is “Where Bloggers Make Money“.

I was curious how bloggers can make money from that blog but it looks like the administrators are giving incentives to blog readers to leave comments on the blog. It looks like a good idea where both parties win. In the past two months since Centrinads has gone live, there are quite a lot of comments already. Hhmmmm my blog lacks a little interaction from readers. Perhaps I should offer the same too?

Centrinads readers stand to gain anything from US$0.06 to US$1 for posting valid, on-topic comments on the blog. Comments are moderated so that earnings could be tabulated instantly.

So far, from what I read from the Archives, Centrinads is a blog on blogging and it makes a pretty interesting read if you are looking to improve on your blog in terms of content, traffic, Page Rank and such. I’ve got much to learn!

Aiyoh, I brain dead drain, man. Spent the past couple of days blogging & blogging and after everything is completed, I just want a little rest and recreation. Man, when this happens, I really miss my page rank *sob* And then only I come here and write whatever I want without having to follow anybody’s rules except my own.

Last evening, I went to Courts [no more "Mammoth", ah?] to check if they have any office desks and cabinets. You know, I’m only free to go shopping in the late evenings and by then all the Chinaman furniture shops are already closed so I don’t have much of a choice.

Well, Courts do not have anything that I want to buy but I saw that they are having a mega sale of up to 80% discount on most of their big-priced items plus buyers only have to pay their first instalment after thirty days. Cool, huh?

Can you imagine having to install EVERYTHING that you have at home, from the car to the house to the living room and bedroom furniture sets, kitchen cabinets, TV set, and other home electrical appliances, computer, laptop, hi-fi set, digital camera and even mobile devices?

And we have yet to include insurance, living and household expenses, gasoline and transportation expenses and other miscellaneous expenses. Eeekkk what is the minimum income that will enable one to live comfortably in Malaysia?

I chanced upon this great article, titled 25 Steps to Launching Your Blog and Making $100+ A Month in 30 Days, this morning. See, I am so damn free now I even have time to research on blogging. After reading the article though, I realized that I have done most the 25 points as advised by Upstart Blogger except for networking. I know, I know I need to network! BADLY!

The thing is, I am trying not to place advertisements in any form on my blog. This is my beloved blog that carries my name and I would like to keep it totally ad-free for as long as possible.

My blog is over four months old now and I didn’t even earn US$1, let alone earn US$100 in thirty days. I feel like a total failure now. SIGH! Do you have any idea how not to place advertisements and yet earn money? Ah… I think it’s time to dig the NewsRoom before my hosting bill arrives.
