Exactly 3 years ago this blog was started to explore the possibility of earning an income online. A few blogs was started and the exercise went into motion for more than half a year. At the peak of the exercise, the income generated was close to $400. Not enough to feed a family and definitely peanut compared to these guys.
Then other business beckoned and attention was distracted. The business didn’t went well but it happens that a startup found me and I joined them. The sites never led me to financial indepencence as hoped. Nevertheless they were just left running together with the ads. It was not too bad for pocket money. The income fluctuates a lot, some months it was below $50 and others close to $200.
Occasionally as time permits, I did a bit of updating here and there, upgraded the WordPress software that runs this site and my theme. The feeling was nice to have extra revenue stream coming in without doing much. It doesn’t cost much to maintain a site either. A $5 a month hosting, paid 2 years in advance, and domain registration of $7/year kept it going and going…
Now here I am, without a job since the startup crashed with the global financial crisis, looking at 2009 before me. Once again I’m back here in a full circle to get the online revenue stream flowing.
That was the update. Let’s get on with the year and business.
