Christmas Cards At The Click Of A Button

Christmas is a time of year that we all enjoy. But, Christmas can also be a stressful time. There are so many things to do! Thank goodness, most stores will gift-wrap for you!

One little job that can be hectic is sending Christmas cards. If you are "organized" like me, you probably have your little list that you pull out each year. People move and addresses change, and the simple task of sending a tiny card in the mail can become a monster!

This is why many people have started sending e-cards. Like e-mail and e-everything-else nowadays, e-cards are sent through the internet, rather than by the old "snail mail."

You simply choose the card you like, and send it from your e-mail account to another. You don't need to spend all that time writing addresses and buying stamps and so forth. And, it's easy to manage your Christmas card list because you can keep it all on your e-mail account, updated and ready to go!

Now, some people might think that sending e-cards is somewhat impersonal. Getting the mail is half the fun, right? Actually, the ease and convenience of e-cards means that you can send MORE Christmas cards. I send e-cards to acquaintances and co-workers who I otherwise might not send a Christmas card to.

I send regular Christmas cards from the store to my family and close friends, and for everyone else I send e-cards. This way I can send a Christmas greeting to everyone!

Besides all that, you can personalize your e-card. There are sites all over the Web where you can find e-cards that are ready-to-send. They allow you to write your own messages, choose a font you like, and some even let you put your own pictures on them.

The Internet offers us many easy ways to keep in touch with the ones we love. E-cards are a quick, convenient and cost-effective way to send your seasons' greetings!

Little Known Facts and Details About the Most Awaited Time of the Year - Christmas

According to the US Census Bureau and the Evangelical Alliance UK, there are many "facts for features" we would all be interested in knowing about the Yuletide season and possibly these will change our perspective about the Christmas celebration as well. This is a season for family, friends, and colleagues to get together and celebrate, to exchange gifts, to contemplate, and to give thanks.

o Please Check The Mail

As much as 20 billion (yes, that's 20 billion) cards and letters were delivered between Thanksgiving and Christmas in 2008. The Royal Mail, on the other hand, was expecting 750 million Christmas cards to be posted approximately on the same period. The US Postal Service also predicted that December 17th will be their busiest mailing day while the Royal Mail expected December 15th to be the day with as much as 123 million cards, letters, and other items being mailed.

o Gifts, Presents, Giveaways

In the UK, survey had determined that an average person spends £384 on gifts. In the US, department stores experienced a 42% increase in retail sales as compared to the previous months. Other stores and shops which experienced the same increase are book stores, clothing stores, jewelry stores, electronics stores and sporting goods stores. The items sold on these establishments are often the gifts and presents one buys for his or her family and friends, as well as for oneself.

o Christmas Is For The Children

Can you remember the time when you were a kid and you left stockings by the fireplace or milk and cookies by the Christmas tree for Santa Claus? Sometimes you even leave a Christmas card with the cookies. Many believe that Christmas is a time for children, a magical time for elves, reindeers, and wishes coming true.

In the UK, children considered Christmas as the celebration of Jesus' birth and approximately two-thirds of children associated the season to giving rather than receiving gifts. They save up for this time of the year to buy presents for their loved ones.

o Christmas Trees And Decorations

Will Christmas be Christmas without a tree or even a wreath? It has been a tradition not only in the US but all over the world to have a real tree or, when this is not available, an artificial one inside our homes. According to the National Christmas Tree Association, the top choice for a Christmas tree is the Fraser fir, a native southern fir.

Handmade Christmas ornaments are also very in demand and decorating the Christmas tree is a family custom in many homes. The most common ornaments and decorations are candles garlands, ribbons, tinsels, and poinsettias. Some of these decorations are even heirlooms passed down from generation to generation.

o Christmas Food Delicacies And Specialties

This may sound harsh to those who love giving out fruitcakes during Christmas because according to a survey in 2006, almost half of the people interviewed say that they will chuck a holiday fruitcake in the trash with second thoughts, and approximately one in every ten person surveyed are willing to rewrap a fruitcake and give it out as a gift.

Mince pies are also a Christmas tradition in the UK wherein children leave a drink and mince pies for Santa Clause instead of milk and cookies.

These are very interesting bits and pieces of information aren't they? They certainly made you more fascinated about the time of the year we all love and that is Christmas. So maybe it's time to make that Christmas list as early as now. You wouldn't want to be caught up in the hassle and bustle when the Yuletide season comes around, like what happened last year.

What Are Paid Online Surveys - Do They Actually Pay?

Truly, online paid surveys are a new medium used in marketing research for gathering data on consumer behaviors. People are invited to fill out forms on the Internet and to give their opinions on various topics. Participants like you and me are rewarded for completing these paid surveys. At least 50% of consumer opinions are gathered with paid online surveys and it is easy to understand why.

With these type of surveys, marketers can collect consumer opinions quickly and in a cost effective way. Giving incentives to web participants is much cheaper and more efficient than surveying customers on site, over the telephone or through the mail. Marketers have been using opinion research for decades as a way to explore customer needs. Paid online surveys are now reinventing the way it is done and it is a great opportunity for all of us.

Paid online surveys jobs are boom now a days in the internet world. Every where you can find ads promising you that you can make up to $200 every hour taking paid surveys or simply read E-mails and earn money. Even you will see ads like make money by using your free times in Paid surveys, online data entry jobs, product and services review and analysis of many companies, E-mail reading, Mystery shopping, paid opinion etc.

A lot of people may be skeptical about the possibilities offered by online surveys and with good reason when most of the established sites tend to cream off so much for themselves that the survey participants end up with little more than a few bucks here and there. But then, they are a fun way to make money online. You can simply take surveys or participate in product research. You can get started even for free.

Do online surveys really pay?

This is where paid surveys get way too hyped out. You will not be making $60 or $80 for an online survey, especially right off the bat. For offline surveys, it is a different story and you can make double, triple and ten times this, up to around $500. Online you can get paid $5 to $30 per survey and if you build a reputation you can move up and get paid $40 or 50 per survey. The reality here is once again like most things in life, it is a numbers game.

If you get invited to take 5 surveys a day and they all pay $10 each and you do this 5 days a week 4 weeks a month that is $800 a month extra cash in your pocket for around an hour a day taking online surveys. Many marketing companies spend a lot of money on market research and analysis to find the consumer responses for their product and services. The online opinion surveys are a good tool for the business organizations and other service providers to study about their products and services.

You can participate in the free ones or the paid online surveys which you must pay first and fill out the forms by visiting their website. This is really where you will make the most money. Like i said before, they are a fun way to put some extra cash in your pocket every month.

All you have to do is to join as a member with those companies operating from and accept Indians. Before joining as a member you have to open a separate email id for this purpose. Provide the email Id and the service providers will start sending emails to you. In the emails there will be links to their websites. Once you log in, you will be provided mails on that another links to the customer websites will be there. You have to visit the page and it is not necessary to make purchase. You will be paid every time you read a mail or visit a website. The whole process may take only few minutes.

Get Paid to Read Emails Every Day

Most sites that offer get paid to read emails daily programs are either scams or have a similar behaviour, as they do not let anyone to reach a payout but it is not true for each and every website on internet. Some sites are honest and legitimate and they do not claim to pay $5 or $10 per mail. They do not claim to make you rich if you join there program today because they know it is not true and these legitimate sites do not want to ruin there credentials by making such false claim.

Give Permission to Email Marketers and Make Some Money from Mailbox

Joining any such program means you give permission to email-marketers to send emails with information on there products and services and pay you a little money for viewing such offers. It is not a bad idea to open a mail and then click on a link to inform them that you have opened and read there message. There is no obligation to open each and every mail that you receive from these marketers. You can do it as and when you have time or you are free to have some fun.

Making some money from mail-box is better then opening a spam and then deleting it. A spam also takes few seconds to be opened and deleted and besides being an unethical marketing method it does not pay anything to anyone including you and me. It is better to permit those who honestly sought your permission to give some details of there products and are willing to pay you in return. Its a win win situation for both parties one who is receiving the details and other who is trying to market its products to you.

How much money can we expect from our mail-box each month

Honestly speaking it depends on several factors like your preferences, your demography, number of persons referred by you and whether you return code the way it gets credited or not, whether you visit advertisers website or just returned code from email.

On an average one can expect to earn something from $1 to $3 or more if he/she has referred a number of persons in this program who are actively participating in it.

How much money we earn from each email from email-marketers?

It varies from one program to another but typically its around $0.01 per email for example at HTMail payments are processed in two currencies UK Pounds and US Dollars, you earn US $0.10 i.e. UK £ 0.05 for each code you return after visiting advertisers website. If you do not visit advertisers website and instead return code for reading email then you earn US $0.01 or UK £ 0.01. This much money you make for your own actions, if you have referred others then the earnings are US $0.05 or UK £ 0.03 for visiting advertisers website by person referred by you and US $0.02 i.e. UK £ 0.01 for persons who were referred by someone you have referred. Every program which pays to read emails also pays to refer others, only thing that matters is whether the program is legitimate or not i.e., whether it will pay ones you reach payout or it will simply refuse/delay payout on one pretext or another. Most email-marketing companies are not able to survive for long period because there business model is not that strong but some programs have been there for years.

Most of these programs are available to international users that is anyone from anywhere can be there member but some program owners do restrict user participation to a given region i.e the programs can be restricted for members from USA, Canada or UK only. This is how they have there arrangements with there email-advertisers who only promote products, services in the given regions.
