Every time I see “Cake Icing. Used And New. eBay.Com” type ads or “Four best sites on killing your wife”, it makes me wonder. Aren’t there any GOOD AdWords ads copywriters? Look’s like a great job to me. The ads are only three lines long and if you charge 10 bucks per ad, you can make a lot of money. And the customers are easy to find, too. Just look at all these terrible ads that Google displays on their search engine and contextual network.

132.          Wacky blogs. 

Steve Pavlina gets over 300 dollars a day from AdSense alone, writing on wacky topics, like polyphasic sleep, astral projection and psychic development. Or takeDavid Icke, who claims that president Bush in an alien and a reptilian. Your blog doesn’t have to be true, it just has to be interesting.

133.          Blog whoring.

 There are a number of services, like PayPerPost.Com, that pay for promotional blogposts. Once again, you can do the same thing, cutting the middleman out.

134.          Unique Personal Ads.

135.          Write memorable personal ads for online daters. Most personal ads suck. “Hi, my name is Bambie, I’m a Vergo, I’m 19 and I love dogs.” Here is my favorite personal ad. If people pay for resume writing, they might pay for a great personal ad.

136.          Poet For Hire.

This is nothing new. Still, if you love writing poetry, why not make some money with your rhymes.

137.                    CPM Advertising Networks

CPM advertising networks behave pretty much as PPC networks, except that you get paid according to the number of impressions (i.e., page views) that the ads displayed on your site will generate. CPM stands for Cost per Mille, and it refers to the cost for 1,000 impressions.

A blog that generates 100,000 page views monthly displaying an advertising banner with a $1 CPM, therefore, will earn $100 monthly.

CPM rates vary with the network, the position of the ad and the format. The better the network, the higher the CPM rate (because they have access to more advertisers). The closer you put the ad to the top of the page, the higher the CPM. The bigger the format (in terms of pixels), the higher the CPM.

You can get as low as $0,10 and as high as $10 per 1,000 impressions (more in some special cases). CPM advertising tends to work well on websites with a high page views per visitor ratio (e.g., online forums, magazines and so on).

List of popular CPM advertising networks:

·   Casale Media

·   Burst Media

·   Value Click

·   Advertising.com

·   Tribal Fusion

·   Right Media

138.          Distressed industries

Buying a good company in a distressed industry is often a great way to make money. It would be hard to find a more distressed area today than financial companies with exposure to U.S. consumer spending, so it's not surprising that the stock of American Express (AXP) has fallen roughly 40% from its 52-week high. This is an extraordinary business, but the company's shares have always been too expensive for most value investors -- until recently. While the company will no doubt face challenges for quite some time, we think the stock provides exceptional value at less than $40.

139.          Turnarounds

Turning around a broken business is difficult and often takes much longer than expected -- but when it occurs, a stock can rise many-fold. Our favorite turnaround situation today is Winn-Dixie (WINN), a deeply out-of-favor supermarket chain. Since the company emerged from bankruptcy in 2006, having shed half its stores and nearly all its debt, new management has done all the right things, such as renovating stores. Initially, the stock more than doubled, but weak consumer spending, especially in Florida, where 70% of Winn-Dixie stores are located, caused the stock to drop by more than 50%, to a recent $14. We think the turnaround story is still valid.

140.          Overlooked small caps. 

Among the thousands of publicly traded U.S. stocks that analysts don't cover are fine businesses that are cheap because either no one is paying attention to them or their stocks are thinly traded.A good example is Weyco Group (WEYS), the maker of Florsheim Shoes. It's a well-managed business that we invested in a few years ago after the company announced an exceptionally good acquisition. The stock has more than doubled, but so have earnings, so we still hold it.

141.          Fallen growth angels.

When growth companies stumble, growth and momentum investors often sell indiscriminately, which can be a great opportunity for value investors if -- and it's a big if -- the high growth resumes or the stock falls so much that it's a bargain even at lower growth levels.

Starbucks, which fell from $40 two years ago to around $15 today, is certainly a fallen growth angel. Whether it represents a buying opportunity is another matter, however. We're not convinced that the company will ever return to its high growth rates of the past, and the stock isn't yet priced to reflect this reality.

142.          Growth at a Reasonable Price (GARP).

High-quality growth businesses whose stocks haven't fallen can also be excellent investments. They may not appear cheap by traditional valuation metrics, but the stocks may be worth it if they maintain their strong growth. McDonald's is a good example of a GARP situation today: The stock isn't cheap (it sells for about 19 times this year's earnings estimates), but the company is reporting very strong sales and earnings growth, so investors will likely still do well from here.

143.          Activism

Activist investing -- in which an outsider leans on a company to change its policies -- has been a hot area. The key is whether the activist's proposal for creating value makes sense and whether there's support for change. If the situation is favorable, great money can be made by investing alongside the activist.Bookseller Borders Group (BGP) has seen its stock decline 75% from its high last fall. But we're confident that the company, which is now for sale, will fetch a price meaningfully higher than today's market value, partly because of the involvement of hedge fund Pershing Square Capital, which has an excellent track record as an activist.

144.          Oddball companies. 

Some companies have economic characteristics that are very different from the typical company in their industry. As a result, analysts and investors may initially misunderstand them and misprice their stock. Classic examples are Southwest Airlines, Dell Computer and Kinder Morgan, all of which came to be industry leaders after a period when investors misread their prospects.

145.          Police ID parades

Taking part in identity parades is easy money - you just have to stand there - but work is irregular and may depend on your appearance.

More info: ask at your local police station.

146.          2 TV/film extra

Production companies need people of all shapes and sizes and if you're over 18 but look younger you'll be especially popular, as you can save them the cost of a chaperone for a child actor. Don't expect to meet the stars, though.Average pay: £80 a day, with bonuses for things like providing your own costume or doing a 'walk-on'. Overtime is paid at around £11 an hour.

148.          5 Pose as a life model

More info: contact art colleges and adult education colleges near you.

More info: search for 'field marketing agencies' on the Internet.

150.          9 Mystery shopping
Some men would pay good money not to go shopping, but 'mystery shoppers', on the other hand, get paid instead. It's not just about going to shops but perhaps to restaurants, bars or to stay in a hotel and report on how the customer's being treated. You'll get all the money for your meals, drinks or bills repaid and you may get to keep the shopping, too - unless, of course, it's diamonds.Average pay: from £6 a visit, but could be as much as £100 a day.
