Pun of the day:
I’ve had eNUFF of their NANGuage!
I’m super particular about my blog’s cheesability (read: beauty/ neatness/ reader-friendliness).
That’s why, you don’t see any annoying Google adsense/banner crap on my blog. OMFC very fussy! I could have made some good money out of sacrificing my blog’s friendliness for cash (after some tulanful waiting for the cheque to arrive and then mafanful convertion of different currency MINUS whatever commision you have to let go to the bank), but I didn’t!
That’s because I can’t even tahan seeing that rubbish on Cheeserland myself! I even got irritated by my Kenko’s banner (which i have removed already), because it is so not matching with the blogskin.
If one day Cheeserland become liddis, will you all still cheese me? 🙁
OMFC I think I have blogsessive-compulcheese disorder.
BUT! I made an exception. Notice that pink banner on the side bar?
I decided to join Nuffnang not because they so pinkstakingly customized a PINK banner ONLY for Cheeserland, BUT!
I’m gonna tell you the sweets about joining Nuffnang later.
First of all, Nuffnang is a word in Jafaikan. It means Real Good/Cool. Cool right?
Nuffnang is the First Blog Advertising Community in Malaysia, where bloggers come to earn money and advertisers come to be heard.
And it’s PINK… not. Ya, okay I PSed their website pink, because I hate blue color. See their original website here.
Founded by a Malaysian blogger and his partner who used to blog at lengmou.blogspot.com, Nuffnang is a website that is built by bloggers for bloggers. Nuffnang currently has already about over 900 blogs signed up. Their first paid ads were rolled out on the 25th of March and they’re giving prizes to their exclusive bloggers on their monthly lucky draws. Last months’ prize was an iPod Nano and this month is a PSP (Pink or Black).
For the noobs, this is how it works:
1) Bloggers sign up
2) Do a survey to tell us who they think their audiences are so we can target ads to them. Most bloggers have a good idea of who their readers are since they often interact with their readers or they know of their many friends or fellow bloggers who read their blogs.
3) Paste our HTML code in their blogs so we can track their stats, positioning their ad in good placements so advertisers will be inclined to advertise on their particular blog.
4) Wait for ads to come in. Their earnings will be put into their Nuffnang account at the end of every week once an ad campaign is completed. Once a blogger’s earnings has reached RM100, he/she will have an option to get us to send a cheque and we will send a cheque out to him/her at the end of every month.
Why I think Nuffnang is not annoying really cool:
1) I don’t have a paypal account! And not a lot of people in Malaysia do. Nuffnang pays in RM and you can bank in straight into your bank account!
2) It pays according to the number of average unique visitors you get (which is brilliant) instead of pay-per-click systems. That means you no longer have to place the ads in some stupid places that cause major eyesore in order to trick people into clicking them!
3) It’s so localized! It’s related to all Malaysians. You don’t want to advertise for a cheese company from northern France, which when they send you the cheese you wanted, becomes Vieux Boulogne.
4) The best part! Quoting Timothy, the founder, “We envisioned a website that could offer a piece of the action to as many bloggers as we can, even those that have as low as 20 unique visits a day”, which means, even if there are only 20 people read your blog a day, you’re able to make some money out of it!
This is too cool.
I always think that blogging is not just for some UNEMPLOYED WOMEN to do. Even if, out of 10,000 unemployed bloggers, 8,000 are women, I just want someone to know that, they are self-employed and EARNING something too. At least in a way more decent than he does.
Sign up with Nuffnang today, earn some moolah and buy cheese!
Who will say no to the extra $$???
Wah. I’m strangely attracted to the pink PSP. Weird.
No matter how ur blog looks like,we will always cheese u!!!I HEART Cheeserland! 🙂 🙂 🙂

“Founded by a Malaysian blogger..” im sure u no the correct english n jz a mistake rite? hehe.. no offence yea.. : )
anyway, i may b signing up for it!
OMG .. earlier today, the founder Timothy just dropped some comments in my blog. He’s a nice and humble guy
i’ve been thinking of signing up for it for quite a while…….. 🙂
thanx for the extra info cheesie 🙂
Good choice cheeser.
Cheesie dear, great job finding something like this. A few ads won’t be hurting your site compared to countless others who have like a billion ads and pop-ups on theirs. Even if yours had all this, it would still be worth sifting through for the content you post that keeps us entertained 🙂
oh ya…i think nuffnang is cool too…will try to sign up.
besides!! the nuffnang team are cheesels freaks!!!! another reason to support them rite! 🙂
Hmmmmmm, so how long have you had BCD (blogsessive-compulcheese disorder)? AND IS IT CONTAGIOUS?

Dave: Since September 2004. Very the contagious. Becheese.
hello chessie. I like your blog, coz its interesting and ITS PINK!! I’m a pink freak. =) I also like you because you friendly and NOT proud like someother bloggers. I like bloggers like you. Cheese or not cheese, i still
i dont care about these stuff you put on your blog…. hey nothing is a free meal. it’s perfectly acceptable to put advertisement on blogs.
Pls pls pls dont sell your soul to the advertisers! Oh wait, you already did. -.-
Whatever you do, just… don’t put up those annoying google ads anywhere near your posts. There are so many blogs worth reading but it’s literally littered with those annoying ads.
I’ve deleted so many of those ‘worth reading’ local blogs from my ‘daily reading favourites’ because of those ads. It’s a pity, but i think i wont miss them. There’s always wikipedia if I need something to read.
I’ve joined it too, and like you said, the blue on my pink is saddening. ;p
@Fishy:
“Founded by a Malaysian blogger..” im sure u no the correct english n jz a mistake rite? hehe.. no offence yea.. : )
What’s wrong with that phrase specifically..?
“In N.E. case, ayam sure Cheesie no’s the collect english n itz not jz a miztake”
@Steve:
Oh yeah, you’re also the one who wants everything for free and can’t stand the thought of someone trying to re-coup their domain registration, hosting and time costs. Those selfish, greedy bloggers! How dare they taint your eyes with 2-3 lines of text ads!!
looks good, thanks for the cheese.. I will sure click the ads for you when it’s ready after a week so you can make more $. By the way, I don’t mind even if you put some google adsense below.. I will help you to click the ads. 😉
donny: I’m very the kam dong! T_T (wait i go buy tissue first)
I didn’t know blogging also can earn money before reading this!!! guess i’ll try out! 🙂
Good Luck Cheesie! I go flex my finger to prepare for some serious clicking for your NuffNang!!

Hello,
I’m glad you posted something about how you maintain your blog, because it is definately one of my favorites… very easy to read, easy to navigate, and pleasing to the eye. It allows you to express yourself rather than being a website, if that makes sense. Did you start this in a class? Is this from a site that you subscribed to? I would like to start a blog myself, and would appreciate all the advice you could offer.
Thanks again for keeping up such a great site!
-Patrick

Oh, almost forgot to mention this as well.

As for cheesie, I think she’ll do ok since she hates those google ads in between posts as well.
Steven – you put cheesie’s blog in the bin just because of the ad? oh well your loss, not that you’ll be replying back or anything. Nice to see such a loyal reader eh guys?
Californian: My blogging journey. I’m using wordpress. Go to wordpress.com, they teach step by step!
Sorry for my ignorance… what does “OMFC” stand for?
I don’t understand what’s with people’s eyes these days. Do they not bother to read before they reply? Too much of speed reading blogs?
Porkie, read. Properly this time. And while you’re at it, take a pill and chill. Never said I’m not gonna reply.
Oh My Cheese ~ Human, forget abt d F.
Anyone try http://www.Kumomo.com before? It seems that you can sell your ad space there without paying any commission and listing fee. It is free, and probably a better ideas to earn more with your ad space.
i love cheese!
