It’s only been a few days since I’ve written about a friend going to Cebu. Well guess what? I’ll be going to Cebu myself!
It’s been more or less 5 years since I’ve been there. If memory serves my right, I was there the year 2002 and was never able to revisit. However, just a few days ago, my grandmother invited me to accompany her to the city of which I excitingly accepted. I may not be able to freely stroll around Cebu the way I used to since I’ll be acting as my grandmum’s bodyguard and all, but hopefully I’ll still be able to make time to see old friends and acquaintances.

As I have stated in one of my previous posts, I will take every opportunity I can to be able to monetize this blog. Recently I found another site that provides bloggers a way to earn money using their blogs. The site is Pay Per Post.
More commonly known by the abbreviation PPP, it is one of the most popular sites that provide bloggers opportunity to make money online. As a legitimate company, it adheres to the word of mouth ethics which is for the protection of both the advertiser and publisher. This is manifested through the implementation of using a Disclosure Badge after each post.
Ever since I joined Pay Per Post, I really did not experience any problems with them. The system gives your pay promptly and with no hitches. Pay Per Post also provides their publishers quality advertisers. I think this is very important so as to maintain the integrity of the publishers’ or bloggers’ Web Sites and blogs.
Whatever earnings I get from Pay Per Post, I will save to be able to pay for my web host as well as renewal of my domain name. If I earn more than what I need for those two purposes, then I will use it to support my other online endeavors.
So if you have a blog and want to earn from it join now.

A friend recently told me that he was going to Cebu City for a seminar. Given that I have lived in Cebu for 2 years, he asked me what hotels would be best to stay in. One hotel that I could think of is Waterfront Casino & Hotel.
Waterfront Casino & Hotel is one of the most popular hotels in Cebu City. In fact it is considered as a famous Philippine landmark. When I was there a few years back for the Ad Congress, the first impression that I got when I entered the place was, “WOW”. It is the epitome of style as well as elegance. I think Waterfront Casino & Hotel is the best place for first time visitors of the city like my friend. This would also be a convenient place for him to stay since they provide wireless Internet which is very essential for an active blogger like him. Another good thing about the Waterfront Casino & Hotel is its location.
Actually there are still other great hotels in Cebu City – it’s just that I’m not that familiar with them. I suggested to my friend to stay in Waterfront Casino & Hotel but I also recommended him to visit the site hotelscombined.com as it contains a lot of information on different hotels around the world. The site has a comprehensive list of hotels in Cebu City which can be found at http://www.hotelscombined.com/City/Cebu_City.htm.

When I got the domain lazygoy.com I decided not to use it for monetary gain. However, when I was short on cash to pay for my Web host, I decided to accept some offers to create sponsored posts and what do you know, I was able to pay for my monthly web hosting bill and a few extra bucks to by me some scag (cigarettes). So now I decided, if ever there are any opportunities that I could make money from this blog, then I will grab those opportunities in a heartbeat.
While browsing the World Wide Web looking for good opportunities, I found SocialSpark. It offers bloggers, not just a way to make money online, but to be able to build communities and drive traffic.
SocialSpark has certain unique features that separates it from other blog paying sites. It has a 100% Audit-able In-Post Disclosure. This feature’s main purpose is to preven a “conflict of interests” and this is done by placing a disclosure badge at the end of each sponsored post.
100% Transparency is another unique feature of SocialSpark. Bloggers are given the chance to be able to know who the advertisers are by letting them see their respective profiles.
Last but not the least, SocialSpark is 100% search engine friendly. Bloggers are allowed to put “nofollow” tags on the links in the posts. This means that blogs are not at risk of losing page rank while even doing sponsored posts.
If you have a blog and you want to earn some cash to buy some scag or for whatever purpose, join SocialSpark.

Yo! Welcome to Lazy Goy.
You might be wondering how the name "lazy goy" came to be. Well, it is just actually a combination of the adjective lazy with the last three letters of my nickname "Gigoy." Why lazy? Hmm… I guess that is the best adjective I, and a million other people (especially my mom), would use to describe me. ^^
Anyway, this blog will be about… uhm… I guess any topic that pops into my head. If you do have any suggestions for a topic don’t hesitate to tell me. I will do my best to make a post about it - that is if I don’t get lazy. ^^ I’ll try to post and upload at least once a day so please do visit once in a while. Thank you and once again welcome to Lazy Goy ^^
P.S. I would like to thank Randen Rosete of DCWebhost for being so accommodating when I was applying for the domain name and hosting services.
creating projectiles orally seems to run in the family doesn’t it? hehe :D...
