March 2009

Not the best months earnings by far, but I did get a total of $117 paid out this month, which was handy for all the eBay purchases I have been making in order to build myself a new PC.
Once again PayU2blog are the best source of paid to blog earnings, but generally the lack of quality earnings illustrates the way that paid blogging has gone downhill recently with some services posting opportunities for a dollar and less. The sad fact is that whilst 'quality' bloggers may not give cheaper opps a second glance, there are enough players out there to pick up these scraps, and at the end of the day anchor text is anchor text wherever it is posted... This means that earnings must come from elsewhere, but where??
The ideal would be to be able to create enough revenue through Adense, but the reality is that it takes a lot of hard work to reach a decent level of earnings this way, and the same amount of hard work to maintain that level of earnings. The next most desirable way to create passive earnings would be through affiliates, but I have yet to find the combination of blog niche and affiliate that yield any meaningful revenue - maybe one day that will change, the quest continues...
