Affiliate payout!

I have spent a lot of time sowing internet 'seeds' that have not yeilded any fruit, as anyone else that has attempted to make some online cash will have done.
Every so often, these can suddenly deliver a huge unexpected bonus as has happened this month with 'linkworth'. Linkworth is a comprehensive package which caters for all type of web site monetisation systems. From simple paid posts to fixed banner adverts and imbedded keyword linking - Linkworth offers a whole host of monetisation tools.
I had taken a few paid posts, but had not yet reached payout and had more or less forgotten about my balance. However, I have also added some affiliate links in my 'Livewyre.NET' website and unbeknown to me, a few users have signed up via this method. When sign ups reach a certain level of activity, I get a payout $50... this took me straight over the minimum payout level and I scooped $74... which is a very nice bonus this close to Christmas... with any luck, I will get an Adsense payout at the end of December too...
