Brick #3:Me and Google AdSense

Hello, my Constituents!

I figured I'd start this post by showing you the money I've earned from Google Adsense.This is  since I began using it.Here are my numbers:

Date	Description	Amount	Account Balance
1/31/2012	Earnings (Jan 1 - Jan 31)	0.01	0.01
2/29/2012	Earnings (Feb 1 - Feb 29)	0.07	0.08
5/31/2012	Earnings (May 1 - May 31)	0.06	0.14
6/30/2012	Earnings (Jun 1 - Jun 30)	0.02	0.16
7/31/2012	Earnings (Jul 1 - Jul 31)	1.17	1.33
8/31/2012	Earnings (Aug 1 - Aug 31)	0.28	1.61
9/30/2012	Earnings (Sep 1 - Sep 30)	0.37	1.98
10/31/2012	Earnings (Oct 1 - Oct 31)	0.01	1.99
11/30/2012	Earnings (Nov 1 - Nov 30)	0.2	2.19
11/30/2012	Earnings (Nov 1 - Nov 30)	0.04	2.23
12/31/2012	Earnings (Dec 1 - Dec 31)	0.02	2.25
1/31/2013	Earnings (Jan 1 - Jan 31)	0.03	2.28
2/28/2013	Earnings (Feb 1 - Feb 28)	0.12	2.4
2/28/2013	Earnings (Feb 1 - Feb 28)	0.02	2.42
3/31/2013	Earnings (Mar 1 - Mar 31)	2.29	4.71
3/31/2013	Earnings (Mar 1 - Mar 31)	0.08	4.79
4/30/2013	Earnings (Apr 1 - Apr 30)	0.02	4.81
4/30/2013	Earnings (Apr 1 - Apr 30)	2.14	6.95
5/31/2013	Earnings (May 1 - May 31)	0.03	6.98
5/31/2013	Earnings (May 1 - May 31)	3.18	10.16
6/30/2013	Earnings (Jun 1 - Jun 30)	0.01	10.17
6/30/2013	Earnings (Jun 1 - Jun 30)	3.58	13.75
7/31/2013	Earnings (Jul 1 - Jul 31)	0.02	13.77
7/31/2013	Earnings (Jul 1 - Jul 31)	1.51	15.28
8/31/2013	Earnings (Aug 1 - Aug 31)	1.05	16.33
8/31/2013	Earnings (Aug 1 - Aug 31)	3.52	19.85

What you see is my slow creep up in revenue. My primary revenue was from blogging with a few Blogger.com sites and then around November 2012, I start seeing money from my YouTube videos. When looking at the numbers, any month that has double amounts, the second number is from YouTube. Once A Husband and Wife Review was added to my catalog in February 2013, you start to see DOLLARS and cents!!

At press time, I'm at $19.85. It took me 1 year, 7 months to earn $19.84! That's $1.10 per month!

Not a lot, but..okay for a non-WordPress, self hosted blog. If you know anything about making money with a blog, you MUST have a WordPress blog to be able to make bigger money. I'll be diving into that in the near future.

I've never ran a Google AdWords campaign, which would allow me to advertise on other websites to increase traffic and sell products.I'll be doing that in the near future.

If you look to the left you'll notice a tab that says " Your Voice Here"(with a little microphone logo). Feel free to leave me a voice message.Good or bad. I want to hear what you have to say.

Next week, I'll be letting you know what my plans are as far as building the Empire!

Stay Tuned, Folks!

Brick032513: Blogging with the Wife

Add caption

I'm a night owl.

I find I do my best thinking at night.I have a Wife who is so selfish when it comes to me that I have to find time like lat night to do the things I like to do.

This is NOT a COMPLAINT

Just stating a fact.I write these blogs late night, so , I can spend time with The Ol' Lady.To me it's a grind. I don't mind. Anywhoo..

We started our blog.It's titled : A Husband and Wife Review. A name the wife threw on the videos that stuck.I chose a Blogger blog so that I can begin to monetize it. We have a blog on Wordpress that showcases our adventures using Groupon.The point was to make money off of Groupon with it.Turns out that's against the rules if you don't have a self hosted site with Wordpress.

Let see what happens...Speaking of the Wife, here we are:

I'm a Publisher!!

As it stands, now, I'm an official publisher! I have:

• Dummy Sauce blog
• No Frills Thrills blog with the Wife
• UndaDog Hip Hop blog
• A Husband and Wife Review 2nd blog with the Wife
• and this blog you're reading now...
• plus I'm a member of ASCAP..got to get some music out there..

I'm starting to make some money with Google AdSense, too.It's chump change right now, but it's money I didn't have ( as my brother would say).My Earnings are as such..
