I've been learning IM actively since Xmas 2007 when I joined the warriors.

Constantly experimenting, throwing stuff up against the wall and running with what stuck. I've tried a lot of stuff, mostly wordpress blogs, and I'm only just now starting to make affiliate sales and building some nice lists...

But that's not the point, although I've made most of my 'pen money' from article marketing and building some basic Squidoo lenses for a few people, I've been putting google adsense on all my blogs/sites just because I thought you were supposed to...

I never even thought about checking my account ! I guess I thought they would email me or something...hehe

So I finally got to thinking about it and checked in and WOHOO! I've been making about $7.00 a month with adsense! I've got $28 in my adsense account!

Now, if I just had about a hundred more blogs set up I'd be set!

    ...OR
    you could add affiliate links instead and make 28$/sale... a few sales per day... then you build 100 more blogs

    Alex,

    I've been affiliate marketing with the articles and the blogs. I was just pleased to see the adsense income I wasn't expecting!

    Thats great work! Now you should build more sites add more ads and make more money. Double what you have and make $14.00 a month.

    I only make a couple of bucks a day from adsense. Affiliate programs are the way to go IMHO.

    Thats kinda like pulling a jacket that you havn't worn for a couple of months out of the wardrobe and finding 20 bucks in the pocket. Its a quick woo hoo moment.

    Well done.

    I don't even want to think of how many potential affiliate sales you have lost because traffic clicks an adsense ad.

    Remove adsense so your visitor can keep all their focus on what you have to say and offer. You will earn way WAY more in affiliate commissions than you ever will with adsense.
