October 2008 – Blogging Income Report

It’s time again for some blogging income news. As you know, I recently split the blogs into two primary threads (Blogging) and (Personal Finance). As a result I decided to split the income news. So this report is only part of my online success: online ONLY!

One other change that is making itself felt is the change to cash accounting. Rather than count promised money (some of which I may NEVER see), I am now ONLY counting money that ends up in one of my CASH accounts, a Broker Account or Paypal. I still accept cash, too! I’m no longer counting airy-fairy money either. If it isn’t in my hand, it isn’t real!

So this is October’s results. Overall, it’s been not too bad a month!

  • Networking Ads – $139.38
  • Private Ads – $164.22
  • Blogging – $76.50
  • Sales – $15.00
    $395.10

I’ve had a lot of success with one of the blogging networks this past few months, and the number of assignments has kept up. So earnings on that front have been fairly consistent. There was no income from consultation or hosting this month, though, and I’m not counting affiliate income either, since I haven’t seen any checks for that.

I’m slowly increasing blogging on some of my other sites as I learn how to manage the networks. They’re as a result seeing some growth in traffic. It’s a sobering thought that Darren Rowse at Problogger once said that he makes MORE money from his non-blogging blogs than from Problogger. That’s something I should strive for.
