Do any of you make any?
Since the inception of this blog, I have made a grand total of $27.35 from AdSense. As it's such a small amount, I've never requested a payment - and probably won't for the foreseeable future.
I have on the other hand been approached by a few people who have/administer websites and wanted to either put up a guest post with links or have a link under my advertisement link list on the right hand side of this page. I haven't made a lot of extra money this way but there has been more interest lately. That said, I never intended my blog to be one that produces an income - I see it as a nice side benefit. The only advise I can give is to make sure that you have an e-mail address posted on your site so that potential advertisers known how to reach you.
After paypal took their cut and the funds were changed into CAD - my most recent bit of blogging income totals $175. After moving the money to my main account, I have made an extra student loan payment of the same amount.
My new student loan balance is $2,923.68.
It feels so incredible to have my student loan balance starting with a $2.... when this sucker is paid off...we're so going to celebrate (and it might just be sooner than we think).
