Not here to brag but thought I would mention it as it was a pretty cool thing for me to see when I woke up today. I have had my site up and running for 3-4 weeks now and today when I logged into my google adsense gone were the dreaded $0.00 signs! In their place was the glory of the $0.08AU! Hurrah! Hopefully the first of many and a fruitful life for my website. I have had clickthroughs on my other ads but no commissions yet. |

That's awesome! I love to see people jacked up about a win or a success. Its totally not about the money but rather the sense of accomplishment. I remember making my first $150 for running a workshop as an entrepreneur. I was more proud of that $150 than the $2500 bonus I got in the day job that I didn't enjoy Congrats |

I should also mention that I have only had the google ads working for 2 days. I had the ads on my site for about a week but they were not working due to a complication with my robot.txt I am hoping now I will see a steady increase as the days go by. What is a good percentage of clicks per visitors to shoot for? |

I am hoping the site will see a large amount of growth when I hit more content and then I can look at expanding and marketing it in a more aggressive manner then. I find it easier to work on something like this as it doesn't feel like work at all. | |

Congrats! Btw, never ever click on your own ad.s I learnt my lesson the hard way. I set up my blog on free online business, created an adsense account. Got approved, was tired of the slow increment of the money, went over to different places ( friend's place, airport, cybercafes, etc. ) And click on my own ad.s from different IP addresses. The amount slowly reached to US$20 plus within a few weeks from the start. Google sent me through mail that little google letter containing my PIN or something. Then Lightning struck. They sent me an email telling me that my account is banned because of some suspicious activities analyzed from my blog's ad.s Shucks. Moral of the story, be patient. Ho ho ho.. ![]() regards, Edmund |

I still need some help and work on the keywords and search engine traffic though. Youtube will be a good traffic resource after my trip. I hope to take a ton of videos and upload them to youtube with my site link and watermark my website at the bottom of the video. Another advantage I have found doing a passion site over targetting a boring niche for money is that I have found others interesting in contributing for free. I posted a request for writers on another forum regarding my topic and I had over 50 people send me interest. This will make content creation alot easier and allow me to focus on other areas of development. I know it is a slow game to play IM but I am approaching it like rolling a snowball. Got to build your base first then slowly push it uphill until it is big enough to roll freely and get bigger and bigger. | |

The achievement of making money from a day job is incomparable to making money with adsense. With your daily job you have guaranteed pay, the only requirements are turning up on time and doing your job. But with your own websites, there is so much that goes into it and so many requirements that any return you see gives you that warm fuzzy feeling inside :P. Cheers, -Aidan. | |

Hey, good on you. It doesn't matter how much money it is, you just cannot beat that first sale or adsense click. I remember my very fist commision for a sale which was just over $6, I was over the moon....spent it pretty quickly though ha ha ha But the point is, it validates that what you're doing works, you then just need to get better at it, and do more of it :-) Phil |

I have had about 30 people click through my betting ad and only 2 have signed up with accounts. Neither has deposited any money yet. I plan to do an article for every big MMA event outlining fight odds and my personal picks on who will win and where the money is to be made. I bet a fair bit and have a solid success rate so hopefully I can build a little following and get them into betting through my site. Quote:

Congratulations for earning the first money through online working, its a great feeling to get the first payment. I have been working online form quite sometime... It gives such a satisfaction. The first payment gives you the little confidence that money is there to be made online. Good luck
