Time for Passive Income!

Hitting my goal of $100 for this month may be a little difficult since I'm just now getting my adsense account up and running (it's not actually there yet but an "adsense pro" is working on my case). I do however have my amazon and kontera accounts up and running on my hub pages and I have put amazon on my blogger blog. I've also set up a OpenX ad server for the sites that I'm building and have managed to pull in 2 cents in revenue from that, which isn't that bad seeing as these sites are still in development and have pretty much no traffic. Considering pushing my goals back one month and therefore having $100 profit being my goal for August, will look at how July turns out before making that decision.

Got to get back to learning PHP, MySQL, and writing articles.

Peace!

Been Busy but little progress

Over the past few weeks I've been busy with a few different ideas and opportunities I've come across. First, I've continued to expand my post runner site which now has several articles on it, some of which are full length and others are short link building articles submitted by others. I've begun creating a article directory which I intend to be something similar to Hub Pages or Squidoo. I've written a series of backlink articles and submitted them using the postrunner system. Overall, progress has been slow so far as I'm also trying to learn to write PHP/MySQL/Javascript.

I also got distracted by an opportunity to work on marketing and monetizing a Facebook fantasy football game. Not sure if it is going to get anywhere since the game's developer appears to be putting the project on hold for the time being. I learned a lot about marketing and monetizing while doing a substantial amount of background research for the project which I believe I will be able to transfer over into my Passive Income projects.

I'm still working on getting a Adsense account (a month later) but my inquiry has been submitted to be reviewed by an actual Google employee so I'm hopeful it will get worked out soon. I'm going to reapply for a Amazon account this week now that I have some content on my sites (got rejected for applying before I had something to show them). Unfortunately, I didn't meet my goal of breaking even for June due mostly to the slow progress and my lack of accounts to monetize. I was only down about $20 which isn't bad. My goal for this month is to create a profit of $100. The success of this being highly dependent on whether or not I get a Adsense and Amazon account within a reasonable time frame.

Back to work!

Passive Income - Week 3

Now at week 3 I have my postrunner site set up and have accepted my first 2 articles. I'm also getting ready to post a couple of my own articles on the site and starting to write summary articles to create backlinks. I've finished messing with my class site after attempting to add a forum to it and struggling with that on and off for a week. Now that is taken care of and I can focus on creating income. I have been unable to register for a adsense account due to have a past account that I have now shutdown but am waiting for that to go all the way through (I'm told it could take a couple weeks). I have also created a hubpage article that I have posted. Unfortunately I am unable to monetize anything due to the lack of adsense although I am going to apply for an Amazon Associate account this week to monetize a couple sites with. Overall, I'm very behind on article writing but will be very busy this week with other business and therefore will not likely be able to catch up until next week.
