This a a very overdue post. Supposedly shared December last year but was too busy to complete. Nevertheless, better late that never.
I’ve been blogging on and off for the past
few years, ranting personal experiences and or just talking nonsense. Because I
don’t really have the skill in writing (especially English), monetizing my
blogs will be very difficult. Over the years I have received only few “once in
a blue moon” opportunities from the paying sites that I have joined. The pays I
got were kept on my paypal account, and just enough to buy and renew my
domains.
It was last year that my personal blog got
more opportunities from a paying site that I have recently joined. Getting $5
for a minimum of 60 words post is very handy for me. I got more views too, thanks to my friends at
the bloggers community, they helped me get noticed. In fact I also received two
collaborations from the two biggest online shopping malls in the country.
Last month, I finally got a Unionbank EON
card and withdrawn my paypal earnings. And guess what I got for myself? A smart
camera that I can carry all the time! I needed a smaller camera
to continue my blogging journey because the DSLR is too bulky, and my
smartphone has limitations.
I was eyeing for the red Samsung WB250F
Smart Camera displayed at SM City with price tag of P 11,990.00 for months
already. Because I love colored gadgets, especially those with striking color,
I was dreaming for it.

But you know what? I disregarded the color this time because I found the same model which was cheaper by P2,000.00 at Robinsons. It was on Christmas Promo and the only available color was blue. (Sayang naman ang P2,000.00)

So here it is, my new baby Samsung WB250F
Smart Camera.

I’m still on the process of learning and
exploring the features. I hope to make my own review soon…
Wow! Congrats. At least you've seen something from your online earnings :)
ReplyDeleteang galing mo talaga, sis! with your full time job, a new baby to care for aside from your older son, you manage to still monetize your blog! i'm looking forward for the review of this camera soon and more blogging opportunities for you too in the future! :)
ReplyDeleteSurely that camera will help you to achieve wonderful photos for your blog posts. :) I hope I can purchase one for myself too. :)
ReplyDelete**Sorry if this is a duplicate**
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice reward for your blogging profits :) Looking forward to see photos you shoot with your new baby.
Good for you that you reaped the benefits of blogging! Taking good photos does wonders for blogging.
ReplyDeleteI have my very first branded handbag from my online task. As a matter of fact, most of my earnings went to signature bags hahaha! But now that I don't have work, all of it goes to my parents for a little support. I don't earn much like before, but a $5 is still a blessing.
ReplyDeleteWow, I love your camera! I'm actually planning to buy the earlier version, the WB150F, kay mas barato haha. I'll be waiting for your review!
ReplyDeleteNice new camera that you got. Whao..so much in price just because of the color.
ReplyDeleteGanda naman. I want naman yun Nikon kaso ang mahalia naman. Anyway, yung tablet na lang ang ginagamit ko for now. Or I can ask my photographer if I want to take photos, hehe. As for our online earnings, since our three blogs are already earning ng paunti-unti we are also planning to get an EON card. But for now habang walang pang card ginagamit ko muna pangbili ng craft things online, hehe...

Wow congrats for your new baby... I was eyeing for a new "glass" naman. lens kit lang kasi ang meron sa DSLR ko for now...
ReplyDeleteThat's the camera I wanted to buy last December too. I had some blogging earnings too that I wanted to use to buy the camera but unfortunately I had to use it for something else. :( Oh well, I just have to save up again, I guess. Congrats to you though! :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your new camera! I can't wait for your review soon!:)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new camera! So far my blog earnings only pay for my hosting and domain hehe. Hopefully this year will be more profitalble for my blog, and I'll be able to treat myself to something nice already :p
ReplyDeleteWow, nice reward for yourself. It's almost a must for bloggers to have a handy camera to take good shots of something to tell. Hope you get more opps now that you have your camera.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear that you already got something out of your blogging. it's really inspiring when you earn a little something for yourself. That camera is really cute! Hope you get to enjoy it! Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteVery nice. blue is not bad.
ReplyDeletegosh! i have the same dilemma.. i was torn between buying a new phone or a camera.. sometime i am too lazy to bring my slr especially when i commute. hehehe
ReplyDeleteWow, sis. congrats! May remembrance na talaga ang online earnings mo and you get to post more beautiful photos pa because of your new camera. Oh, I'm also so happy because my 2 blogs were approved too, just last December. The 5$ per post is really a big thing for me na, considering I am just a newbie blogger (just started a year ago). Being a SAHM that I am, I am so so so happy about this new blessing when I got approved. I was jumping with happiness! Haha! :-) Cheers to more blogging opportunities for all of us! :-)
ReplyDeletei also have three blogs for that $5 per 60 words site and majority of my earnings came from that hehe aside from D.A.s and other sites
