Hey, long time since I last published a post here on TMME. I want to apologize for this lack of fresh posts lately, but some of my current projects are demanding a lot of my available time and so I had to concentrate on that work instead of my blog. It simply had to be done. And in the end it’s all about making money online huh? It usually involves working for it, unless you find the holy grail of getting rich quick

So, will I post any new content soon? For sure, but most probably not as regular as I did in the earlier days of TMME. So don’t fear I will abandon my blog! The next post(s) will deal about one of my new projects, a hopefully very profitable online business that relies on niche blogs, affiliate marketing, public domain content and some other interisting things. More on this later!

For now I have to say Goodbye. Stay tuned!

Hi and welcome back to TMME! Christmas and New Year holidays are over for me and I’m finally back to provide you with fresh money making news as usual. I hope you had some great days and I wish you all the best for this year, which hopefully will be a turning point in my online career too (hey, who knows? )

To be honest, I haven’t really worked out such thing as a master plan for 2009, but at least I know the main direction that I’ll put my efforts and work into. The next weeks and months I will concentrate on building several niche websites and blogs, all with different methods. I’ll do this for different purposes, be it for ad revenue, affiliate sales or even flipping my sites for some healthy profits. Right now I’m still working on my automated blog about water fuel, with which I see some steady progress, both in the blog’s rankings and my (yet small) earnings. The next big thing I’ll test out is a blog purely based on public domain (free and quality) content, more on this later…

Within the next days I’ll write some updates on my current money makers like NeoBux or my affiliate niche sites. So far I can say that I’m still making money with my small online business. It’s not much, but enough to invest some bucks back in bigger projects (or to allow myself some extra Xmas gifts, hehe…).

Ok, enough for the moment. Stay tuned and keep coming back to my blog!

See you soon,
Querblogger

Christmas is here and it’s time to let go of the daily online work, at least for the next couple of days. For the next days to come I will not publish any new posts here on TMME, but rather spend the time with my family and friends by celebrating christmas. So don’t expect any new information from my side (although there’s still enough to report about).

In the same breath I want to thank all my fellow blog readers and wish you a merry christmas too! Thanks for all the participation here on TMME, I really appreciate all the comments posted in the last year. I’m feeling good by knowing that at least some people are actually reading my blog and finding my posts useful.

Special thanks also go to my friend Tiberius who’s finally started his new personal blog called the Wallachianblogger.net! Feel free to check out his blog and give him some nice comments, I’m sure you’ll like his writings a lot (especially if you’re interested in the daily live of a Romanian guy).

Ok, I’ll see you next year, and I hope that it’ll be the year that’ll change my life!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Welcome to my earnings report numer 12! One year of my Making Money Experiment is over now and the last months I made my biggest earnings so far!

To make it short, in September I made exactly $1,115.21 in gross profits! I say gross profits because only a small percentage of this money actually found its way into my wallet, most of it is already reinvested in my projects in order to make even more.

I believe you already know where most of the money was coming from? No? Ok, it’s NeoBux again. This brilliant PTC brought me $994 in this month alone. Thanks to all of my 1850 referrals who heavily contributed in making me that big bucks! Thank you so much!

The next biggest earner was my first niche site. It made me a total of 3 sales for this month and I got another $85 in my Clickbank account. It’s quite amazing how well this site performs since I’ve actually put only around 8 hours into it. The last year it made me over $250 without any further work. Affiliate marketing really rocks!

The rest of the money mainly came from selling links here on TMME and contextual ads (which I’ve dropped right now since they make me barely any money).

In september my blog only received about 2,500 unique visitors, a declining trend not only seen here on TMME but also on other websites. My blog still has a Pagerank of 2 and an Alexa rating of 200,000 due to the drop in monthly traffic.

Anyway, september was the best month in my whole one year making money career, regardless of how much traffic my site has received. Since the earings have massivly increased, I’m quite lucky about it.

Everything began with a small blog hosted on Blogger.com, nearly exactly 12 months ago. I had no visitors, my earnings were around 1% of what I currently make and I was a complete noob. Now, 365 days later, I can say that I’ve managed quite alot the last weeks and months. My blog attracted nearly 25,000 unique visitors. Can you imagine that crowd in one place? Sure, Probloggers and Shoemoneys may laugh about that because they receive such traffic on a daily basis, but I’m still very proud of myself!

But that should definitely be not the end! In the long run I’m trying to quit my regular day job, so I’ll definitely need more cash, and I should also concentrate my work on more serious money making opportunities like affiliate marketing for example. Feel free to follow me the next years to come, I’ll do my best to bring you quality information!

Just a side note, I’ll give up reporting my earnings on a monthly basis since I feel like a boaster and also because a lot of research work is involved with it. But have no fear, from now on I’ll report my earnings quarterly, that means every 3 months instead of one!

Thanks to all my readers, referrals, commenters, my friends, family and especially my wife for supporting me and my Making Money Experiment! THANK YOU!

Cheers,
Querblogger

PS: In some minutes I will announce the winners of my birthday contest!
