I make money online.

This blog started as a hobby, a mean of stress relief.  To this day, that remains its primary function.

However, I do make a little bit of money off of it.  I have also made money off other internet activities as well, all entirely legal and over-the-table.

Now, I'm not saying I make the crazy amounts you see boasted on sleazy sidebar ads, you know, the hundreds or thousands of dollars a day people claim to receive.  In a bad month, I pull in about an extra $20.  In a good month, it may be $100.

Also...it is work.  There's nothing easy and effortless about it.  It takes time, and it's not always enjoyable.  (Some of it is downright tedious.)  But, though it's low-paying and not always a ton of fun, it's something I can do in my spare time, from home.  And I've come to really appreciate having that little bit of extra income.

So, how does one do it?  How do you make money online?  Well, there are quite a few ways.  I'm going to break them down for you, and tell you what's worked for me.

I need a few good (looking) people...

Majorly exciting things going on with the 8PP Store!  I've been putting a lot of work into this bad boy, and am really happy about what I have to show for it:

• There's about a dozen new designs, including Maternity wear for before you're showing, and oh-so-exclusive Paternity wear.  (Exclusive because, can you name another baby blog that sells paternity gear?  See?  Didn't think so.)
•  The store layout has been really revamped and streamlined, so it's a lot easier to find the products and designs you're searching for.
•  I'm also offering free design customization upon request.  Simply drop me a line over at the Contact Page (just be sure to leave a way I can contact you back, like an e-mail or phone number).

 And, for today through Sunday only, Printfection, the company which hosts the store, is having their massive birthday sale.  Enter the following coupon codes prior to check-out to save:

• PFBDAY$5 Save $5 off your subtotal of $25+
• PFBDAY$15 Save $15 off your subtotal of $50+
• PFBDAY$35 Save $35 off your subtotal of $100+

Lastly, as you might have inferred from the post title, I'm interested in finding a few people to model 8PP gear for pics for the store.  I can't offer much in monetary compensation, but I can pay you in internet fame and free swag.  (Which is way better than money, right?)  Again, hit me up at the Contact Page if you're interested.  I'm ideally looking for:

• One adult male, mid-20s to early-40s.
• One adult female, mid-20s to early-40s.
• One pregnant adult female, far enough along to be showing.
• One child, between the ages of 2 and 8 (preferably a girl).

Thank you so much to all who read for all your support.  You guys make this fun.
