Going Pro as in MacEwan Diversified Media Holdings

December 1st begins the official count down to going pro. Numbers don’t lie. One year ago Text-Link-Ads offer $50 to place 4 words on my blog. My first impression was that of humor. How cute that 4 words equals $50 dollars. So it began I published their 4 words and they gave me $50. Bitten by the bug.Fast forward to the end of June 2007 to my three month experiment. The first month of the Three Month Experiment I didn’t take it too seriously. Work and health stresses kept me focused away until the end of the month showed $650 earned. The second month of the Three Month Experiment I didn’t even start until midway through the month still I totaled $850 for August. Effort appeared to equal payoff.ppp-earnings.png September was a different story. I started the third month of the Three Month Experiment with a mind set to maximize my goal. The effort payed off with triple the previous months earnings coming in at $2,800. A full $2,500 coming from one source alone. The decision was then made to monetize with more effort and share how you can do the same.

The majority of my earnings during the Three Month Experiment came from PayPerPost, an Izea company, but this is only during my initial switch to warrior status. Seriously though, putting all your eggs in one basket is like gambling. Better to spend the time and spread the revenue streams across differing content offerings. Currently I am in the staging time preparing and learning. This is a no nonsense put up or shut up even with real consequences. Just as I gave myself three months to determine if it were possible to make a sustained $2,000 a month ($2,800 was what it came in at) I am working on a three month count down to March 1st. By that time all 25 sites should be in full swing.
