My Websites and Blogs

I wanted to share just a little more details about the sites and blogs that I currently own. I'm not going to give specific names and URLs but I will share the niches. I choose these niches because I have the most fun writing for these topics. At the moment, I'm the only one working on these sites and blogs but I hope to outsource some things in the future.

Introduction and Plan

It only feels right to start this blog off with an introduction and talk a little bit about my plans for not just this blog but for earning money online.

This blog is all about my personal journey to earn enough money online to be able to pay my bills and support myself. Eventually, I hope to quit my day job and focus on online work full time. I will be testing out a lot of different methods and sharing my failures and successes with readers on this blog. The reason I have decided to go with a blogspot blog over my own domain is because this way I won't feel obligated to update constantly in order to chase the money so to speak.

My plan involves trying out different methods to monetizing websites and earning money online. Here is a brief overview of areas I will be trying out:

Adsense: It seems like everyone starts with adsense and I'm no exception. Even though I have some experience with adsense, I am still not making enough money. I need to reevaluate how I use these websites and figure out how to improve my adsense earnings. I will say though that I am very close to my first payout. I'm just having trouble getting there with my current sites. I'll write more about this later.

Amazon Associates: I have used amazon affiliate links before on my personal book review blog. I want to build a website around only Amazon products though in order to diversity some of the sites I already own. I have chosen a site in the Health - Diet and Exercise niche to start with.

Self Published eBooks: I already have some experience with self publishing ebooks. I started writing erotica last year but have fallen out of the habit since then. I plan to pick up writing erotica again as well as branching out to other genres. From what I have read about self publishing ebooks, quantity is very important to being able to earn serious money with this method. Since I have already had some success with self publishing ebooks, I will be focusing on this method the most above other methods.

Miscellaneous: This covers all the other little things that I will try out like postloop, fiverr and mturk.
