A while back I added Amazon product links to one of my sites to find out if it would make me any extra money. I had the Amazon affiliate products on the site for about a month and I only made 1 dollar. The worst part about the affiliates are that my adsense revenue for the site went down (maybe because people were clicking the amazon ads instead of the adsense ones).
In my personal life I have just got a job working in web development (full time – only a 6 month contract), I had to get a job quite a distance from where I live as there weren’t many jobs in web development close to were I live. Because of this I have had to rent a room in a house and move out from my parents house. This has taken nearly all of my time over the past week (to organize, move and buy stuff). The downside about the new room is that I don’t have any internet access so I know that this is going to slow me down at building websites etc…

My revenue for this month has fallen by about 10%. I ain’t too sure if this is because of everyone is skint(short of cash) because they have spent a lot of money on Christmas so the advertisers cut their budgets etc..
It could also be due to my sites falling in popularity or something. This is something I need to check.
Today I will be sorting out getting some articles wrote and also on getting links.
On a separate not e I have just got a full time job, it’s a six month contract building IT systems. This should cut the time I have for my websites but I will probably outsource a lot of the work.

Well not much has been happening to be honest with you.
Over Christmas I was working a lot in my bar job, I worked Christmas eve, Christmas day, boxing day and also new years eve and day. I have also decided to start outsourcing a lot of articles.
2007 goals:
- Automate tasks that take a lot of my time
- Use more affiliate schemes e.g. rather than ppc
- Increase earnings by $100 a month every month
- Outsource more work to save time
- To have 75% of my domain names developed
