Philippine Bank Codes: Paypal Withdrawal Updates

This is an update to the previous list of bank codes I last posted. James of Pinoymoneytalk has told me that the list is now updated (thanks again, bro!) and PAYPAL has released an official list of Philippine bank codes.

So here is the official list of bank codes of the major banks here in the Philippines, (you may also access the exact site here):

Paypal Withdrawals: Philippine Bank Codes

Ok,so before you log in or sign up to Philippine paypal and link up your bank accounts, check first your local bank's code. You're going to need this 9 digits bank code along with your bank account number to complete the process.

Fellow blogger, PINOYMONEYTALK has listed down the bank codes of Philippine banks available so far (Thanks, bro!). Sigh, and Banco De Oro has not yet issued one!!! So here are the bank codes:

PAYPAL UPDATE: WITHDRAW FUNDS TO ANY PHILIPPINES BANK ACCOUNT!

Yeah, you read the title right, folks! ALL THE LOCAL PHILIPPINE BANKS CAN NOW BE USED TO WITHDRAW YOUR PAYPAL FUNDS!!! This is so good news to fellow Pinoys who have a hard time withdrawing their paypal monies. You can now link your Paypal account to any bank in the Philippines and get your money within 5-7 days, unlike before that only selected credit cards and banks are available.

I actually have two paypal accounts - a new Phils. account and my old Paypal Australia account. I have set up a Philippine account coz i am currently here in Pinas, but my problem was I didn't have any Philippine credit card or eon card. So I haven't really used my Paypal Phils. account. I thought of applying for eon, but now I don't have to!!!Yehey!

Why I have to set up 2 paypals, you may ask? Well, since i stayed in Australia for a few years, I set up a paypal there and linked it to my National Australia Bank (NAB) account, which I maintain until now. This is what I use for Dneero and Smorty earnings. I recently set up a Philippine paypal account coz if I use my NAB card to withdraw at any Philippine ATMs, there is a transaction fee of A$4 (about 140pesos!) plus the forex conversion difference - that'd double charges!

This is just right timing! Now all I got to do is link up my Philippine paypal to my BDO account, then change all my payment details for all the money-making programs I joined! Ei, that's so cool!!!

MY ADSENSE ALTERNATIVES

Since my adsense account was disabled, people from adsense has yet to reply after my 3 appeals!!! Oh well, I admit I got pissed a little upon learning that they disabled my account. Now I am getting over it, and come to realize that moneymaking is not just limited to adsense - there are lots of alternatives to earn online. Yeah, there are lucky people out there who earn bigtime from adsense, and I admit sometimes I envy those bloggers who make reports to their adsense earnings.

Nevertheless, even if my adsense daydream has become a nightmare, it's just sort of consolation to find out on the net that there are lots of fellow bloggers who are getting disabled everyday, specially newbies like me who are about to receive their first earnings!! Pity,tsk,tsk. They don't give a damn to us small bloggers, ei?

Oh, well, there are other adsense alternatives out there! I have listed some of the programs that gave me some dollars (not yet for this blog, but my other site). So here are my current adsense alternatives:




1. Bidvertiser - The best alternative for adsense, i think. They are now having more advertisers so I have high hopes for this program. Since lots of bloggers are being disabled by adsense, Bidvertiser publishers are growing!!! So adsense, watch out!

2. Smorty - This is the no.1 earner for my other site. So far, I was already paid $63 dollars for the last 3 weeks, and I still have pending earnings of $18. They pay a minimum of $6 per article. I have signed up for Payperpost, but my other site is not yet approved, but I read lots of bloggers are earning from PPP. I joined blogtoprofit, too, and already made some few assignments but I haven't received any payment yet. Per link, they pay 150pesos (less than $4). I am just waiting for this blogspot to reach 3 months (and some more posts!) before I apply to these paid review programs.

3. Dneero Surveys - Cool surveys! You just need less than a minute to answer the easy questions! My first pay of $20 is already deposited to my paypal, and all I got to do is post my survey response!

4. TTZ Media - this is John Chow's advertising media. So far, so good. I already earned a little from this program, though I haven't met the min. $25 payout.

5. Widgetbucks - I have joined this program few months ago for my other site, but I am not earning much from this so I decided to take out their ads from my site. The only good thing about it is their signing bonus of $25 - of course you need to earn first a minimum of $25, I think, before you get this bonus!

6. Blogsvertise, Kontrera , Sponsored Reviews, Adbrite & Shoppingads - My other site's just been approved on these programs I read lots of good reviews for them, so I hope I earn from these, too.

I know there are lots of adsense alternatives. So whether you are disabled by adsense , disappointed with your cent earnings, or just want to try other programs, you better check out all these adsense alternatives that I listed.

HAPPY BLOGGING! :D

AFFIRM YOUR ABUNDANCE

I saw this video from Tracy A. Phaup of Money Mastermind Gym Club, which she got from EJ Cooksy (THANKS to you both!). It's so inspiring especially now I am still sulking over my Adsense account being disabled. This video is a very moving and empowering everyone's affirmation for abundance to your life. I so love it, so I hope you like this, too, and watch til the end, and be inspired money CAN grow on trees!!!

I am the source of my abundance.
I trust my ability to create abundance...
Abundance flows freely to me.
As I do things that I love...

Now, while watching this video I realized that, HEY, MONEY MAKING ONLINE IS LIMITLESS SO I SHOULDN'T JUST LIMIT MYSELF TO ADSENSE!!!THERE ARE LOTS OF OPPORTUNITIES OUT THERE THAT WOULD GIVE ME ABUNDANCE!!!

Wow that feels good............really!

NIGHTMARE: MY ADSENSE IS DISABLED!

Ok, first I apologize for being lethargic writing here in my dollarsonline site. I was just too busy updating my other website beautifulandhappy.com. I am a novice blogger so everytime I change theme, my mind go agog coz I have a hard time tweaking my lay-out. And whew, I never thought it's hard to maintain a website, let alone 2 sites! So i give my hat to those who can manage with lots of blogs!!! Anyways...................

So now, I finally had the time to write a post here. Supposedly I was going to write a report on how much are my earnings from my blogging so far, both for this site and for beautifulandhappy.com. Last night before I dozed off to sleep, I checked my adsense earnings and it said I already got $80.11 in revenue! I am so happy coz I am already daydreaming how to use the money I would earn this month - I know it's still small, but hey, if you're living in the Philippines, that $80 is about 3,200 pesos - that would have been enough for 1 week run to the grocery!!!

Anyways, so I logged in to my adsense this morning to check it out and what did I got?

MY ADSENSE IS DISABLED!!! So I checked my email and this is what I got:

At least they politely said hello? But HELLO! Why they didn't put any reasons why my account was disabled? They protect both the interests of their advertisers and publishers? But should they say it clearly? I know clicking my own adsense is fraud, so why should I do it in the first place?

I search my former BFF GOOGLE (should I use yahoo or altavista now?) about other blogs disabled by adsense, and whoa! I got a little relief that many others are disabled as well - lots of fellow bloggers -- and many are reinstated (and of course, many too are forever banned - I hope that wouldn't be my case)!

So I filled up their appeal form, but I was advised that they will get to me within 48hours - ok that's about 1 hour ago, so I am waiting now for another 47!!!I hope the appeal would be considered. But for now, my Adsense daydreaming has turned into a nightmare. What would they do to my $80??? They are multi-billion(?) dollars mogul and hey, they are penalizing a small blogger like me who didn't do this click fraud???Hmm, I should have really learned a lesson or two from John Chow and not relying too much on adsense!!! Now I am searching for strategies to earn aside from adsense. Any tips you could give me???

HAVE YOU GOT DISABLED BY ADSENSE, TOO???I'd Be happy to hear from you. Bummer, isn't it? :D

JOHN CHOW the Dot Com Mogul

Every start of the month, I would write about successful netrepreneur who earns bigtime online. This is to inspire me to work harder on my moneymaking journey. I already have started with Ashley Qualls who earns a stagerring $70,000 a month from adsense - surely one lucky 17 year old girl! Where was I when I was 17???

Anyways, my second moneymaker is JOHN CHOW. He's a self-confessed dot com mogul who first built The Tech Zone in 1999, a strong venture for hardware news and reviews. He built another one, the TTZ Media Network, a private shopping network for high quality technology based content sites. This is currently his biggest source of income, though of course, he didn't reveal how much he earns from TTZ.

His other website, John Chow Dot Com, is a haven full of ideas of how to monetize your website, increase traffic and pagerank, and build a successful online business. JohnChowdotcom's catchword is - I make money online by telling people how much money I make online. Hence, he periodically reports his online earnings and for 2007, this site earned a total of $180,305.94.

What amazes me is that, as I am so agog over my Google Adsense clicks and meager cent earnings (like every novice bloggers like me), surprisingly he's not a big fan of Adsense. This is not his biggest income source, and according to his post, it accounts for just 17% of his online income. If you look at his 11 months income graphs, you'll see that he is not a big Adsense earner. His biggest Adsense earning is only $1,246.50 for the month of May (just read somewhere John Chow and Google had an issue - don't have any idea about that, just confused why he doesn't have any google earnings after August?).

Anyways, his top earners are private ad sales, affiliate income, and Review Me, for which John is now charging $450 per blog review!!! Wow, after I have enough money to buy my own domain for dollarsonline, how I wish John would do a review of my site someday - for free! LOLS! For 2008, he's projecting his income for JohnChowdotcom alone to be $300,000 (at the minimum!) in 2008. Now I am drooling, hehe.

Anyways, another reason why I got hooked on his site is because it's not purely about money talks. He mixes the site with his personal ramblings, his love for cars (so obvious on his frontpage!), humor and fun. He's also generous to his readers and newbie bloggers (hopefully to me, too.hehe). He already gave away so far, a miniTV USB, lots of linkbacks (equals much needed exposure for bloggers!), and now he's giving away a Ruff PC worth $5,295! Since he won recently the contest for the best Ruff PC Review, John in return would pick a blogger who voted for him and would instead give the Ruff PC to that lucky one (plus free exposure, of course!). Congratulations John for the good heart, for sure good karma that will come to you. And of course, congratulations, too, to the winner he's going to pick. Darn, why I did I procrastinate about joining John's voting contest? Hmm, lesson learned.

For a newbie blogger like me, who wants to learn how to monetize a blog, John Chow dot Com is definitely a must-read. I am so glad I have subscribed to his RSS, I am now learning a thing or two on how to improve my new site (and hopefully get my own domain - soon!). But for now, I will use John's site as my online money-making "bible", and I am going to start exploring his site again by reading this post, Reward Every Success No Matter How Small - a must-see for new bloggers like me!

Come on, let's start learning and from the dot com mogul JOHN CHOW!
