Blogging has become part of my life now as I'm trying to make money online with it. It has been so much that recently my girlfriend started to complain that I spend more time facing the computers than shower her with love. But lucky me that she's someone who is understanding and of course I do take some time off blogging to attend to her.

Well, I've been using blogger.com since 3 years ago. This blog has become my personal diary. I have other blogs. Before starting a new blog, I have to buy new domain names and also subscribe to hosting plans. I like to buy domain names from goDaddy.com. It has one of the best pricing.

Recently I found out that this site called jj9 provides discount codes for purchases at goDaddy.com. I've use some of them to purchase a few domain names and a couple of hosting with goDaddy.com. In total, I've save more than $100. That's great because my make money online initiative hasn't start reaping in big bucks yet. Just small pies.

There are many other coupons and discount codes can be used with other online stores such as Apple Store, Dell and The Body Shop. JJ9 updates the coupons offerings almost everyday. New discounts can be download for purchases. One of the deal that I like is the "Free Shipping for orders of purchase more than $50" for Apple Store. Hey, which Apple gadget costs less than $50. Well, this really saves me the shipping fees.

Do you buy at online stores? If your answer is yes, head to jj9 to get your discount codes and coupons now!

The PayPerPost Revolution Accelerates, Sponsored
Blogging Marketplace Secures $7 Million Series B

Draper Fisher Jurvetson leads round and joins Board of Directors

ORLANDO, FL – (June 12, 2007) – PayPerPost, the leading marketplace for advertisers to reach bloggers and other consumer content creators, today announced it has completed a $7 million second round investment led by Draper Fisher Jurvetson, an investor in the company's Series A and one of the world’s leading high-technology venture capital firms. The financing brings the total amount of capital raised by PayPerPost to over $10 million, giving the company considerable resources for further development as the industry’s leading Consumer Generated Advertising marketplace. Additional participants in the round include existing investors Inflexion Partners and Village Ventures as well as new investor DFJ Gotham. With this investment, DFJ Managing Director Josh Stein also joins PayPerPost’s Board of Directors.

“PayPerPost created this exciting new advertising space and has established itself as the industry leader,” said Ted Murphy, chief executive officer of PayPerPost. “Although we’ve only used a portion of our first round capital, this added support from investors unlocks significant growth potential. Our content creator and advertiser ROI metrics clearly demonstrate the upside for PayPerPost’s model. We intend to use this capital to build the infrastructure, visibility and professional expertise necessary to reach and retain a greater network of advertisers and content creators than ever before.”

Since its founding in June of 2006, PayPerPost has signed more than 6,500 advertisers to its groundbreaking service, which has enabled Consumer Content Creators to be compensated for their efforts discussing specific companies, products or services via blogs, videos or other media. The content creators are required to disclose relationships with advertisers on their blog, providing transparency for the end reader. Over 125,000 Internet postings, most in the form of blogs, have already earned money for their creators through PayPerPost’s innovative marketplace. PayPerPost recently released PayPerPost Direct, a disruptive new service that allows advertisers to contract and negotiate directly with individual bloggers they identify through a safe, managed system.

“PayPerPost has laid a strong foundation for the future,” noted Tim Draper, founder and managing director of Draper Fisher Jurvetson. “It continues to attract a critical mass of participants from both the advertising and blogging communities. Analogous to Overture’s sponsored search model, we believe PayPerPost’s business model holds disruptive potential and will enable the company to thrive in the evolving paid-content arena.”

To mark the $7 million dollar funding, PayPerPost has launched a new website detailing the company’s service offering at http://www.payperpost.com. Bloggers and advertisers can easily sign up at the site and begin leveraging the self service marketplace.

The USD$7million they raised is really a big chunk of money. Of course I'm extremely interested in getting a piece of it. I'm sure all the bloggers' have turn into ($_$).
