Never quit; failure is not an option: The new Social Media sites

I have been getting quite a few emails and offers to join some new social media sites that not only offer the traditional features you would find in Facebook and MySpace, but the opportunity to earn money from people viewing your profile and people who you refer.

I liked what I saw and joined a couple, here is a brief review. These social media sites have a lot of powerful feature built into them. I.E., blogging, groups, building a profile, email, videos and the ability to change your template look and add gadgets, and they are free to join. The bonus is the opportunity to make money….the best part.

They make a good point, the other media sites take in an average of 20 million a month from advertisers, but they pay none of that money to you. We read the ads, post content and refer friends. Their point is that we do the work, but do not get paid.

They have a system in place called RSR or Revenue Sharing Rate. This is what they use to figure out the amount of money to share with their users.

Now I realize no one is going to become rich using these social media sites and referring other members, but you can supplement your income to help offset some of your advertising cost tied to your main business. Why not get paid for something you are probably already doing.

Be warned, these sites are full of advertisements, but being able to brand yourself, make money and more is a real treat to this online marketer. The only part I did not like with Zenzuu, after starting your sign up process, you are required to complete a set up module, plan on it taking about 10 minutes to complete.
