A small update...

So my ehow articles are not preforming up to thier past abilities, whic is kind of sad, but I did manage to add a few more articles to try and jump start it.

I did manage to FINALY see some results from my amazon affiliate account, I made a new site and got 7 items ordered in the last week in about an hour work I put in another hour today, so I really hope that it can boost my earnings.

Here is what the site looks like.. http://blu-raynews.blogspot.com/

Growing my Passive Income

I now have 50 Articles up on ehow. I am averaging $2.60 a day, and have ramped up my efforts in promoting my articles.

I am going to give my Amazon Affiliates account a major push here in the next two weeks, and if I can not generate any income (and I mean any) I will be giving up on it completely.

A few status updates...

Hey everyone first off, I would like to say that I actually out a little bit of quality work into my revenue streams today. First, I wrote three new ehow articles. I also used these to reccomend products (video game system cables) using referal links in my amazon affiliate program. The cool thing about this, is EVERYthing they purchase through this link I will recive a small precentage of. So if they pick up a $10 cable I make a few cents, but what if they add a game that they wanted to their checkout cart? The possibilites are endless and I hope this generates something.

Speaking of amazon, I logged on for the first time in a while an noticed that I am up to almost $5 in earnings, by doing absolutly nothing. That reminds me that I need to work more on getting my links out there. I am no where near a payout, but this shows a possible true passive stream of income.

How much is my site worth update - I added a cool link to the left of my home page just for fun (scroll down to read full entry on it) and saw an update button on thier site so I decided to hit it and BAM! my page worth is now up too $277.40!

Check it out!

Totals for July 2008

Just a quick update for the end of July

ehow.... $49.58 - Not really dissapointed in the result of the money, but dissapointed with the level of effort I put in. My August goal is going to be $75.

ebay - $330 in profit. This pretty much all come from stuff (collectables) that I have laying around doing nothing that I have no intrest in anymore. I have a big deal that should be going through in the next day or so ($475) and will set my goal for next month at $750

HSBC Online Savings - $2.79 Paid. There is only two ways to get this number higher. 1) Do not withdraw anymoney from this account (shouldnt be an issue) and 2) add more into it. There is already 200 more than my average daily balance than last month with $100 more going in mid month, maybe more if I can scrape some more ebay auctions through!

Amazon Affiliate, adsense, stubhub affiliate - Goose egg on them all. I will try and build a dedicated Blu-ray Blog again when I get my Blu-ray player fixed, but thats going to take about $150 I dont have to put towards that at the moment.

And the side tally has been updated.

Yesterday was brutal...

The lowest earnings in over two months. Just under a buck. Thats weak stuff. I guess I am going to put some extra time into yeahoo answers and ehow today, just to get my traffic up.

Updated totals for July 2008

I am up to $31.50 on Ehow this month, not on pace with what I did last month but good for the little effort I have put into it (maybe 2 hours total MTD). I have updated the totals to the left once again.

CashCrate....

Well everyone, one of my criteria for deciding what to try online is there has to be no use of up front capital in doing so. I had heard a lot of mixed things about the cashcrate site, and it requires a credit card. If there is no risk, they shouldnt need a credit card. You can tell that I really do not approve of this place just due to the lack of link in it, lol.

If anyone has had a different experience, please let us know in the comments. And, because this is a discussion and not a link whoring event, referal links will be deleted.

Beating Expectations...

I pretty much did all of the things I was aiming for tonight, minus the ebay listings as of this postings, but they will be there tonight. Here are the articles (because they mostly pretain to making money) I put up.


July 14th Results...

SO I only pulled in $1.34 from ehow, am awaiting a paypal payment from a recent ebay auction, and have practicly givin up on adsense. I am just not pulling enough traffic to warrent it. I will leave it up, but it will take 20 years to get enough for a payout.

The goals for tonight -
Publish a minimum of 2 ehow articles
List atleast 2 ebay auctions
Subbmitt some of my articles to Digg.
Answer 5 yahoo answers questions for ehow traffic... (someone remind me to blog about how well that works.
