Is Redgage a Hobby?

Like any site, the more active you are, the more beneficial it will be for you. I joined Redgage sometime in August of 2009. One of my photos was featured right away, which gave me a bonus of $4.50. Shortly after that, I became too busy with other sites, (mainly Squidoo... OK pretty much Squidoo) though I was still making money without even being on Redgage. Once I put a few hours (maybe not even that much) of effort during a week in Jan. 2010., it paid out with an additional $25 bonus won in their raffle. Today Jan. 11, 2010, I received my visa card from Redgage. After this all future earnings will be added to the card.

When you first sign up with Redgage, click on the "Tools" tab and chose the Import tool. Redgage will automatically upload your content from YouTube, Blogger, Flickr, Facebook, Wordpress and Twitter, no need to manually upload everything. I was surprise how much content Redgage uploaded for me. Afterwards, every time you create an article, blog, a new Zazzle product, another Squidoo addiction lens, simply upload it by clicking on the "Upload" button on your dashboard.

Once you hit the "Upload" tab you will see something like this. Fill in the blanks with Title, Description, Tags and click on what type on content to upload. Is this case, I will be uploading a picture taken of my daughter wearing her diversity mask as part of an assignment in her diversity class.

Once it is uploaded the picture is instantly displayed This is placed in my "Profile" under "Content" and is automatically placed in the "Default Collection". To view this click on the "Collections" link on your profile page.

Once you have finished uploading your content it is placed in the "Default Collection." The Default Collection is the default grouping of all the content that has not been placed into a custom Collection. To make a custom collection, click on the "Create" tab. Once there fill in the Title, Tags and Description. Then upload an image that best suits your custom collection.

Under your "Collections" tab, you have the option to Edit or Remove it. Hit the "Edit" button and you can then transfer your content into that group. Once you are in there, you will notice that you can move your content to a different group as well.

My picture which I just uploaded was moved out of the "Default Collection" into my "Photo Images of Everything" on page 2. To see a larger view on the Redgage site Click here to view
