Alternative Income Streams — July
OK well I totally forgot about this earlier in the month, so here is what the blog did financially last month. As you’ll notice, the biggest change is that the freelance income is gone. The job was becoming a time suck for me and was paying me very little per hour, so after some wrangling the last couple of months, we decided to end it. Which is fine, because every time I had to sit down and do that work, it was a major pain. Not only that, it was taking up more and more time without paying accordingly. So that’s a good sign.
On the other hand, the ING interest is up and so is Adsense (even if it is only by a dollar or so). The goal is increase from month to month, even if it is only a minimal amount. And the good thing is that August is looking just as good, if not better. So that’s a good sign. So if you take the freelance money out of the equation, we’re still moving forward, so that’s good. I also got an ING referral by someone who signed up and got $25 for free. If you’re interested, check out my ING page and go from there.
Right now I’m back under $100/month, but next month we should climb back out of that.

Wow that’s really inspiring. I just started my blog a few months ago and I haven’t made any money yet. I haven’t really been trying but I put in adsense and still haven’t broken 2 bucks. Any tips? Come check me out if you have time!
