Earn a cash back sign up bonus with Amazon at Points2Shop

Points2Shop - Earn points for free rewards.Points2Shop is free to join and gives you 250 shopping points for joining. I know what you’re thinking, points don’t exactly equal cash, but in the case of Points2Cash they do. 1 point equals 1 cent worth of shopping money at Amazon.

I would like to personally thank Mike,  an affiliate of Signupandmakemoney for introducing this sign up bonus site. Because of this, his referral link is being used on the main site and in this blog post.

Points2Shop looks like yet another site where you can get paid to do various tasks and earn off of other people you refer. Nothing too amazing about that, but since Points2Cash doesn’t cost you anything to join, it doesn’t hurt to give it a try to see if it works better than other paid to do tasks opportunities.

It looks like you get $1.00  and 15% for every free referral you bring in. This looks like a doable program that will not screw the Company or the affiliate.

Over 463,000 members says something. Points2Shop has been around a couple of years, 400,000 + members in only two years is a pretty good job to me, what do you think?

I don’t know what kind of offers they have and if they look like they are worth the time to earn. This will have to be up to you and your good judgment.

I have never really been big into shopping opportunities because I don’t buy a lot of stuff, online or offline. That’s just me. I’m the exact opposite of a pack rat. If I don’t use it, it usually ends up going out the door. You may be different. If you do enjoy shopping, than Paid2Cash is for you.

Improving Signupandmakemoney – recently added functionality

Website construction on a .com.I just wanted to give all the members of Sign Up and Make Money a quick update on the recent improvements I’ve made to Sign Up and Make Money.com.

I’ve been working all weekend to get the site to have a little bit more functionality. There are still tons of things I want to do to the site to make it better for everyone, but at least I was able to get these recent improvements made to the site. One of the reasons I decided to write this blog post was to make myself stop working on the site.

Recent improvements to the site:

Google Translate added

I ran into another site that was using Google Translate on their site and I thought it would be a great addition to this site. This is considering a majority of the traffic comes from China and India. Google Translate works good in every browser except for Safari, I don’t know why, but I think it’s a cool tool.

Comment count added to blog

I added a comment counter to the Blog so you could see how many comments have been approved at the site. Though Sign Up and Make Money has gotten over 50,000 comments, a majority of them are unfortunately spam.

Can now search Google within Signupandmakemoney

I added Google Custom Search so you can search Google in my site. I only added it to the blog and main sign up bonus site. I will add it to the forum at a later date.

Updated sign up bonus header

I put a lot of thought into how I could make the header look better at the main index of the site, but I’m still not happy with it. I hope it suites everyone though.

Updated FAQ page using jQuery

I made the frequently asked question page a little bit cooler by adding jQuery to it. Instead of the crappy javascript I had before, now the FAQ page looks more like Digg.com with animation included.

Added tool tip pop up

Making use of jQuery again, I added a neat little tool tip pop up to alert new visitors of which sign up bonus sites have actually paid me. I’m not very active in a lot of the sign up bonus websites. I mainly just like to build websites, but to see that sites actually pay someone who doesn’t actively promote them shows a lot.

Cool RSS pic at home page

I found a really neat RSS picture using Google Image Search. I just had to use it at the sign up bonus site.

Forum navigation css modified

Now when you hover your mouse over the navigation bar at the forum, the link will change color. It wasn’t a big deal, but I just like the hover effect.

I also added a few more sign up bonus sites, I will write about them at a future date.

Updates yet to come to Signupandmakemoney.com:

  • Ad manager – you’ll be able to purchase and track advertising at the site.
  • Referrals at the affiliate program will be automatic instead of manually approved.
  • New navigation bar at the sign up bonus page using jQuery will be added.
  • Google Search form will eventually be added to the forum.

As always, I would love your opinions of this sign up bonus site. There is a thread in the forum where you can comment on needed improvements to the site.

Get paid to do various tasks at Microworkers

Microworkers - Work and earn or offer a micro job.I ran into a site called Microworkers today. As usual, when I first took a look at what they had to offer, I was a little bit confused. After taking a closer look into Microworkers, I realize they have a good thing going on. Of course, I’m writing about them because they give a $1.00 sign up bonus just for joining and are 100% free to join. That’s just something I always do.

I like Microworkers because you can get paid to do various tasks for website owners. I never seen a site so flexible in their earning options. Some of the tasks are pretty easy if you have some time to kill and want to make some extra money online.

Here are some “micro job” examples:

  • Comment on some one’s blog.
  • Post in forums.
  • Write a short article.
  • Post ads on Craiglist.
  • Write a blog on a particular product.
  • Follow someone on Twitter.
  • Digg a website.
  • Complete a survey.
  • Sign up under some one’s referral link.
  • Link to some one’s site.
  • There is no limit on what a task could be.

If you own a website, Microworkers can help you get traffic to your site at a pretty inexpensive rate.

Anyway, as with anything, nothing is ever perfect. It looks like the $1.00 sign up bonus is supposed to be used towards advertising. This isn’t a complete waste, since being a website owner, I spend a good junk of change on advertising online. You don’t have to own a site to promote something though.

I tried using my sign up bonus to do a quick comment task. I had to do at least 25 positions. I thought this sucked because I was hoping to try their services out before actually putting any real money into Microworkers.

One last downside is that they claim you can earn $1.00 per referral, but in order to get the $1.00 for referring someone, the person needs to earn at least $25.00 in commissions either by  completing tasks or by referring others themselves.

This makes the earning potential go down just a little bit, but overall, I think Microworkers is a pretty unique site with a distinct name for themselves. What do you think?

Take a look at some more sign up bonuses that pay you for doing things and let me know what you think.
