Passive Income: August Monthly Earnings

by Matt on September 3, 2011

This is the first monthly earnings post I have done because I have simply not been earning very much.  Some of the things going on in August are an adult affiliate site I started with my brother-in-law.  This is a site that sells adult products and I was a little reluctant to get involved in.  It has not produced any income but we will see how it goes.  August was a decent month for Adsense as I repositioned some ads and experimented with them a little bit.  My Amazon affiliation is making some money as well with only about 3 sites that promote Amazon products.

Enough of the rambling, let’s get into the numbers.

Adsense:$11.15

Amazon:$11.49

August total earnings: $22.64

It sounds like chump change but I am excited to have made some progress.  I am currently starting a new blog about PC and Mac computers as it is one of my biggest interests.  You can check out that blog at http://www.pcvsmac.net.  I am also diving a little deeper into YouTube marketing, so we shall see how September goes.

So how are your earnings going?  Please feel free to comment on this post!

Finding the Best Way to Backlink Websites

July 25, 2011

My first strategy in SEO was to outsource everything. I spent $190 for a months service of SEO. I went from no where in Google to top 5 for a not-so-competitive keyword. Turns out that even if you are on the first page of Google for a keyword, it doesn’t matter if no one is [...]
