5 Reasons I Use ViralTag For Social Media Scheduling

5 Reasons I use ViralTag for Social Media Scheduling

I have been using ViralTag for over 6 months now and want to share with you why I recommend it as an absolute MUST if you have your own website. This page contains ads/affiliate links. See my full disclosure for details. Using social media is the easiest way to get your website noticed. Between Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, StumbleUpon, Tumbler, etc. there more ways to reach your audience than anyone has time for. You could spend all day pinning and tweeting, but who has time for that? Virtually all bloggers now use schedulers to post for them. That way you can set exactly what time and day and how often you want your post to appear without manually doing it yourself. Many bloggers have schedulers that pin for them over 100 times a day! After I write a post, I schedule that post to be pinned sporadically for the next three months and it only takes about 5 minutes. I do that with ViralTag. If you're looking for a good scheduler, here are 5 reasons I recommend ViralTag. 1. Multiple Social Networks There are many schedulers out there that only work for Pinterest or Facebook or one type of platform. Currently, ViralTag can schedule posts on Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Tumbler. It makes my life so much easier to have all my posts, pins, tweets, etc. all in one place! Pinterest accounts for over 60% of my traffic and I wouldn't be able to do it without ViralTag. It saves me a ton of time!   2. Easy to Use The interface of ViarlTag is very easy to use. To start, click the + sign and then you'll be prompted to upload an image, the URL it should go to, and any text you want to add. From there you can schedule this post on whatever social media site you choose. You can see in the image below that I selected my Pinterest…

Why You Absolutely MUST Track Your Finances

Why You Absolutely MUST Track Your Finances

My husband and I got married when we were 21. We were both in college, had little part-time jobs, and we didn't have a dresser. That was our first "big" purchase we needed to make. We were renting a townhouse, he had a car, my parents gave us some furniture, but we didn't have a dresser. His savings were drained after buying me a ring and taking me on a honeymoon, but I had a little money saved up to get us going on our newlywed journey. When we started pricing out furniture, even spending $100 was a big deal to us! We decided we needed to get our finances together and see exactly how much we had and how much we could spend. That's how tracking our finances started for us. I'm not sure why, but my husband had Quicken on his computer. We opened it up and entered our single bank account into the software. This was one of the best financial decisions we've ever made! Since that day we've tracked every penny we spend and make. Seriously, everything. We've been married over 14 years and can look back and see what our monthly expenditures were back in 2004 or whenever. We can see what we saved last year vs what we saved the previous year. We can see our overall networth change, track our mortgage payments, easily find deductions when doing taxes, and more! Even more importantly, we sit down together at least monthly to look at our finances, analyze the charts, and make sure we're on a successful financial path. If you are not tracking your finances, I implore you to get started now! It will make a huge difference in every aspect of your finances!

How Do I Get Started Working From Home?

How Do I Get Started Working From Home?

I have a friend who's youngest child just started 1st grade this year. It's the first time in 14 years where she's had a significant block of time during the day to herself. Sure there's still laundry, grocery shopping, cleaning, bills to pay, etc. Trust me, she isn't bored and her kid's after school activity schedule is so crazy that many days she tries to squeeze a nap in there. She told me that she's thinking about getting a part-time job at a clothing store she likes at the mall. I asked her why. She said she wants to just make a little money on the side to help pay for a few shopping trips and some fun random things. I asked her how much the store would pay her. She said $10/hr. Then I asked if she could set her own schedule. Would they really just let her work during the day when her kids are at school? Would she have summers and weekends and holidays off? Probably not. So this $10/hr "just for fun" job is going to affect her whole families' lives! Who would drive her daughter to softball if she's working? Can she have Sunday off to go to church with her family? The more we talked about it, the less and less appealing this job sounded to my friend. I asked her why doesn't she just work from home? She said she'd have no idea where to even start! What would she do? How would she make money? Let me give you my best ideas, most of which I have personally done. They're organized below by income potential which corresponds with difficulty level. All of these jobs allow you to set your own schedule and make money on your terms! Let's begin your income journey and start working from home today! This page contains ads/affiliate links.

Ibotta Review – How I Use Ibotta To Save Money On Groceries

ibotta Review – How I Use ibotta to Save Money on Groceries

I started couponing over 10 years ago. At that time there were no smart phones or money-saving apps, but there were helpful coupon websites that I taught me how to combine my newspaper coupons with store sales and get awesome savings! Then a few years ago, I started seeing my couponing sites refer to this thing called an "ibotta rebate" and I had no idea what it was and I just ignored it. Then when I finally got around to getting a decent cell phone I decided to download the app and give it a try. Now I use it almost every week and it (along with other grocery apps) has become part of my shopping routine. This review is specifically about ibotta, but there are other great coupon apps that I highly recommend. To see my full list, click here. If you are brand new to couponing and not sure how to get started, click here for my detailed article, "How to Coupon Without the Extreme".

February 2017 Income Report

Welcome to my 8th income report! Check out my past income reports here. My personal goal is to make as much money as I can from home while not sacrificing any of my family responsibilities. This means I’m cooking, cleaning, going on field trips, arranging play dates, driving to/from sports, etc. and then working from home in my “spare” time. My goal at My Income Journey is to help you learn how to make money from home too! I hope you can gain some insight into what works (or doesn’t) and improve your own income journey! I love being a stay at home mom and think everyone should have the option to stay home and earn money if that's what they want to do!
