January 2008 Earnings Update

My earnings have dropped off significantly the past two weeks. I’m not sure what to attribute this to, other than the Christmas shopping season is over. I will definitely be keeping an eye on things, and hopefully this will turn around.

On a bright note, Commission Junction just issued a payment to me. It wasn’t for as much as I had hoped, but anytime you get commissions is a good thing. It’s very encouraging and motivational to keep going. I’ve been at this since September–only working part time–and I still feel like I have a lot left to learn and even more left to implement. So making money where I’m at… which I feel is still somewhat at the beginning stages… is very encouraging. How much more can I make when I keep plugging away and get a chance to implement more and more of my ideas?

Hopefully the sky’s the limit!

On another note, I’ve recently been experimenting with a few different methods for getting backlinks and traffic to my sites. I’m still somewhat in the “experimental” phase, so I’m not quite ready to talk about them. Stay tuned though, because whether the methods succeed or fail, I plan to discuss them here. For the most part, I plan to let you know what I tried and whether or not it worked.

Well, until then…
