To see the offer you need to be logged into a chase account.

- Valid From 1/1/08 - 5/31/08
- The first deposit must be within 60 days of your account opening
- You can expect the $125 bonus within 60 days (faster than our Bank Of America payment then!)

- It’s free as long as you keep a direct deposit going in there every month - otherwise expect to pay $8 monthly
When you open the account make sure you cancel the checks they will want to send you - it costs $23 to send them out….
For anyone hunting for a new bank account, Bank Of America are offering a mouth watering $75 for new customers who sign up here, before April 30th 2008.
They say - To receive your $75, apply online or go to your nearest banking center. Use offer code AOU260208.
You can do this online, or in one of the many Bank Of America branches.
Note: Be patient with Bank Of America over this… we signed up with an account a year and a half ago for the $50 bonus… it took over a year for the money to go into our account as they couldn’t find the offer code we gave at the time. So - when you apply, ensure you keep a note of this offer code and MAKE SURE the bank teller (if you do it in a branch) correctly enters your offer code…I was told if the bank teller doesn’t enter the code, you will not get the money even if the offer was running at the time.

Basically, you create a website - slap the adverts on it and with a little bit of good fortune, visitors will not only enjoy your content, but also want to view the adverts on your site. With each click, you earn a few cents. Some ads you CAN earn more than that - but don’t hold your breath.
We have tried most if not all of them, including the giants at Linkshare, Primary Ads and Commission Junction but for us, the current number one way to make money from the internet is with a company called Azoogleads - due to their vast array of available offers. Plus they offer Net 15 payments which means you get paid 15 days at the end of the month. This is great as many companies can take 2-3 months to process your payments.
Secondly, they are great because they are pro-active in helping publishers make money by sending detailed stats on request on which offers are the best performing on their network in your chosen category.
Let’s get some things straight. It’s impossible to make money on the Internet without doing SOME work at the start. But that doesn’t mean it has to be a job spending 6,8 or 12 hours a day trying to earn a few bucks. After all, you wouldn’t be here reading this and I wouldn’t be asleep on the sofa thinking about my next holiday.
So. Follow the hints and tips on this site and you can earn a serious amount of money using the programs I provide. It does take grunt work at the start, but don’t let that put you off. It’s all doable. It’s all good. You can do it.
