Come see some recommended sites, tools and programs that are fun, money saving or just plain cool.
 
Have you ever seen a link or a banner that looked interesting but you were afraid to click on it due to unwanted pop up adds? Unfortunatly many times when we click on a particular banner, we are suddenly redirected to one of those "Please visit our sponser" pages where you have to fill in all your information then another one and another one. This can go on to the point that you forgot what it was you were actually interested in to begin with. In addition to that if you fill in any of the information at all you can very soon be billed for 'other' programs & services that you did not sign up for at all.
Welcome to GoHarlan, no pop up ads, no formd to fill out just to hijack your personal information. If we recommend a site or program to you can rest assured we have tried it ourselves and approve. If you have any questions regarding anything you read on this page please feel free to contact us. So feel free to read on below, and check out some of the 'cool stuff' we recommend.

 

 

Squidoo works great, its fun to use and 100% free!


Squidoo is a wonderful website geared toward the blogger making money. I myself have tried several of these get paid to blog sites. Most of them to my dissappointment were so filled with pop ups they were too difficult to use. Squidoo is great, anyone can use it successfully.  For starters is completly and totally free, there are no pop ups or flash ads that are impossible to close. You simply write a page about something that you know a little about. It can be as simple as "How to make a Baked Alaska", "10 Great Birthday Party themes", or even "Why I love online gaming". It's your page and it can be about anything you want it to be about. Squidoo has its own money making modules to products and services. You choose what you like and place them throughout your page. If someone clicks on those products and buys it, you get royalties. It's that simple! Some of our readers already use Squidoo and have submitted thier pages. We will be featuring them here in the near future. So if you make a page on Squidoo please send us the link so that we can feature yours as well. If you would like to join simply click the Squidoo link to the left and get started!

 

 

 

Do you sell online? Have you considered it? There are some money saving tips you need to know!


Seller Source Book is my image hosting choice for online selling. I've tried several and by far they are the best and have been around longer than most image hosting sites. I have been using it for about 5 years and the price has never changed. I pay $8 a month and store unlimited photos. I currently have close to 3000 photos stored on thier site. If I sell something on ebay or another online source I use the auction templates that they have thousands to choose from. Very nice graphics make for a cool auction. In addition to that you can use as many photos as you want on your listing. Ebay charges .35 cents per photo. If you are using sellersourcebook you can use as many photos as you like on your auction and it doesn't cost a penny extra. 

 

 
Do you shop online? If so this is the best money saver you'll ever find.

This is in my opinion the absolute best money saver / earner online. It is totally free, it works like a charm and is so easy that anyone can use it. I've been using this for some time and get regular monthly payouts for my shopping. If you shop online simply go to your bigcrumbs page and click on the store you wish to shop at then shop. A percentage of what you spend will tally up until payday, then your earnings are payed out directly to you.
If you do not shop online this is a great time to consider it. Online shopping is great for many reasons. With the economy like it is and it doesn't look to improve anytime soon we need to find alternative means to save and make money.  Online shopping means you are saving your fuel for one thing. Have you ever got to the checkout line and your 3 year old is throwing a fit for some toy they didn't need? How about when you went to buy only a new pair of shoes but came home with a trunk load of stuff you wish you hadn't bought? All of those problems are easily corrected when you shop online.  There are other ways to save online too. Here is an example of something I did very recently. I needed printer ink which I always buy online and in bulk.  I clicked through my bigcrumbs acount to the inkstore I use, then I pulled up another browser and googled in the name of the store and coupon code. Instantly I found a coupon code for an additional 10% off. I copied and pasted the code into my checkout. So, I got the ink on sale, bought at least 10 cartridges so I got it a little cheaper, then used my coupon. My total price with shipping was under $20. I had clicked through my bigcrumbs so after the month ended I earned an additional $3 and some change in cash back for the order! It doesn't get much better than that. I use bigcrumbs for shopping on ebay, sears, zappos, The Disney Store, and even Bass Pro Shops.  I got cash back a second time on this transaction from Paypal for using my Paypal Debit Card to pay for it. If you'd like to give BigCrumbs a try click on the link above and start saving. You have nothing to lose!
 
 
 
 
Are you an online Merchant who does not accept Paypal?

I would consider giving Paypal a try. Many people use paypal for various reasons. I myself use my paypal debit card to pay for my purchases for the main reason that I do get cash back on every signiture purchase that I make. Last year alone I recieved over $1000 in cash back.  So, naturally websites that do not accept paypal typically get overlooked when I am shopping.  Another good reason to accept paypal is because many people are now selling thier goods online and most of the online money made is deposited directly into the paypal account. Most paypal users will not request a money transfer to thier bank accounts because there is a fee for doing so. Many will simply spend the money directly out of the account, earn the cash back and save the transfer fee.  If you've never given paypal a try and would like to start simply click the link above and sign up. It is totally free and works ver well! I use it for both shopping and for my online store.
