It’s a new month, which means a new income report! This summer has been a busy and productive time! As with everything in life, you get out of it what you put into it. And that goes for blogging!!
You get out of your blog what you put into your blog.
When I started my blog years ago (yes years) I wanted to connect with other moms. Making extra income is a perk of blogging but not my main motivation. I love reading the comments readers leave, I love connecting with people across the nation or even world! Blogging is a real passion for me, and I’m loving every minute of it! If you’re thinking about starting a blog…be sure your real motivation is not money! You WILL burn out and you won’t succeed! That’s my two cents on blogging!
Here’s what my August earnings on my little blog looked like!
AFFILIATE:
| Shareasale | $98 |
| Social Fabric | $60 |
| Ebates | $15 |
| Iconnect | $135 |
| Evite | $50 |
| Brandbacker | $25 |
| Groupon | $50 |
| Total: | $433 |
Expenses:
Host: Host Gator $8.95
Board booster: $5
Total: $13.95
My income is down from last month, but I can easily say my time was completely taken up by my Master’s work yet again. (I’m a full time RN and in my Master’s program currently!) This month I’m going to really focus on increasing my traffic and social presence. I’m also focused on growing my Pinterest traffic with Board Booster.
If you have any Pinterest tips I’d LOVE to hear them!! I’m about ready to purchase a program to teach me to ways of Pinterest!
If yore looking for my affiliate programs, I’ve listed here in a google doc, so anyone can access it and use it! I hope this is helpful for new bloggers and small blogs to show that yes, with some dedication and hard work, you can make your blog profitable! YOU CAN DO IT!
What are your blogging goals for the month?
