PaidViewPoint is a survey site that pays you to take short market research surveys based on your demographics and trust score. When you join you will not be required to give your name, only information that will help them to match you with the right surveys. For USA members, you will need to verify your phone number. Either with a landline or cell phone number. Instructions will be given through the registration process.
It is a new survey site from the makers of ICS which currently resides on our Elite List. We have fully tested the site and we feel it is time to move the site from the Ongoing Investigations List to the Legit List. Site is over 6 months old and paying without any issues.

Fair warning, while the site allows most countries, this site will benefit USA members more. Non-USA members pay receive one survey a day for 3 cents. If they are lucky. However you can still earn from referrals and doing these 3 cent surveys. It is up to you to decide whether or not it is worth your time.

Here are the pros and cons of this site:
Pros:
1. Fixed Minimum Cashout - $15 is the set minimum cashout. Might seem a little high to many but at least you don't have to worry about it changing constantly after each cashout. However there is a bonus to help you reach your first cashout....
2. Signup Bonus - For USA members a $1 sign-up bonus will be given after you complete registration. With an additional $0.10 for verifying your phone number. All other countries will receive an average of $0.80 at sign-up.
3. Unlimited Direct Referrals - There are no limits on how many referrals you can have. Great for promoters and those who can refer a lot of people.
4. Forum - This site does have a forum. Forums are great for communication between members and staff. Members can post payment proofs, get support, and stay up to date on changes made to the site. You can find their forum here:
5. Paying - We have tested the site and we have been paid. Several others have been paid as well:
Cons:
1. New Site - Naturally with new sites you will not find payment proofs. With this site you do not have to worry about losing investment, since they do not require or ask investment from you.
2. Promotional Material - You wont find banners for bloggers and site owners to use. You will have to create your own banners to if you plan on promoting the site.
3. Personal Information Required - Like most survey sites, you will be required to give your address, date of birth, and other person info.
- Warning: Changing your emails address will either cause your account to be zeroed out or you will not be able to cashout for another 6 months. So be sure to enter a working email address when you join.
(More income opportunities to members with higher TrustScores)
- Trust Score:
"Be honest about your demographics and traits, always give your honest opinions, and don't be fickle. Change your mind only when it is really changed. Lastly, remember, we aren't interested in your personal identity. We don't even ask for your real name. We want to learn about you and your candid opinions but we maintain your privacy so that you will feel free to speak your mind. "
- Number of Surveys: Depends on too many variables. Trust score, your interests, ect...
- The maximum number of questions in a survey is limited to 25, but on average, PV surveys are around 10 questions long.
- Referral Earnings : Earn up to $25.00 for each new friend you invite. You will get 20% of every Biz survey reward when your friends cash out.
- VIP Community Builder: Those that have over 100 referrals can apply for VIP. VIPs do not have to wait till their invitees cash out to collect their 20% referral fees but will receuve the awards every time their friends completes Biz survey rewards.
- Whenever one of your invited friends wins the $10 PM grand prize, you win $5. Also, whenever an invited friend of one of your invited friends (think "grandchild") wins the $10 grand prize, you win a $2 instant cash prize.

Facebook added some upgrades recently that came with lots of privacy options but most people find it hard getting used to the new facebook settings. Posting comments on people's status updates and posting on your friend's wall leaves a trail on your wall and this makes it easy for others to track your facebook activities. Do you feel like hiding your posts on friends' wall and comments on people's status updates from your girlfriend prying eyes? Or you just want to keep your parent's nose off your facebook business? Maybe you're someone who loves being discreet and want to hide your facebook activities from stalkers on your friends list.
The screenshot above shows exactly what I wrote on others wall and my comments on their updates. Facebook also shows all your friending activities by default but you have total control on which information you share on your wall. Hiding your recent activities on facebook ensures your privacy and some people already know just how to get this done. The steps below are for those who are yet to get used to the new facebook privacy options.
To hide your comments, wall posts, friending activities, facebook likes and other recent activities, click the remove button right beside the post as shown below:
Select Hide all comment activity and confirm your option by clicking Hide all:
This hides all existing comment activities and future ones. The same goes for wall posts, facebook likes and friending activities too. The screenshot below shows just how to hide friending activities from your wall:
Just click remove (the tiny X button) on any post you wish to hide and select hide all to hide all posts similar to it.
In case you want to undo the changes you made and show your recent activities again, click on Edit Options at the bottom of your wall.
This box that pops up shows a list of posts you've hidden from your wall news feed.
Just click the remove button (X) to unhide any wall story you intend to show. Though this hides recent activities from your wall, it's not guaranteed that it's gonna hide it from your friend's news feed also but at least, no one gets to track you by just visiting your facebook wall. Consider sharing this post with your facebook friends if you find it helpful.

Apart from working on traffic and search engine optimization (SEO), there's a need to intergrate your blog with popular social networking platforms. A floating share buttons (social bookmarking) widget by the right of every page is just one of the gadgets you must add to your blog if you intend to get free traffic from facebook and twitter. I wrote a post last week that went viral thanks to the power of facebook sharing. The post received close to 500 facebook likes in just a week! Underestimating the power of share buttons is like neglecting a major source of traffic to your blog. I've already written several posts on integrating your blogger hosted site with facebook, google plus and the rest of them. These posts include adding like buttons to individual blog posts, adding google plus buttons to blog posts, facebook comment box for blogger and large share buttons under blog posts among others.
Having a floating share buttons widget makes it even easier for your blog visitors to share your blog posts they find interesting. Unlike the previous ones, it's easy to get this done as you won't need to do any sort of HTML editing on your template. The floating sidebar sharing widget comes with the most popular social sites. You can see the widget just at the right side of this page and it scrolls with the page, leaving your visitor no choice but to share your content.
How To Add Floating Share Buttons On The Sidebar
1. Log in to your blogger account and click on Design
2. You're now looking at your blog's layout, right? Click on Add A Gadget on the sidebar.
3. Select HTML/Java Script
4. Paste the code below into the box and save. There's no need for a title.
<!--SideBar Floating Share Buttons Code Start-->
<style>
#pageshare {position:fixed; bottom:15%; right:10px; float:left; border: 1px solid black; border-radius:5px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px;background-color:#eff3fa;padding:0 0 2px
0;z-index:10;}
#pageshare .sbutton {float:left;clear:both;margin:5px 5px 0 5px;}
.fb_share_count_top {width:48px !important;}
.fb_share_count_top, .fb_share_count_inner {-moz-border-radius:3px;-webkit-border-radius:3px;}

<!--SideBar Floating Share Buttons Code End-->5. Save the widget and preview your blog.
If you already have a google plus button above or below your posts, the one in the widget might not appear. It seems you can't have two +1 buttons on a page.
If you're using a dark template, you can try out the code below if you don't quite like the first one:
