Make Money Blogging while Sleeping

Posted by Adi Wong On July - 24 - 2009

I can’t tell you guys how many times I hear or read this on other blogs, newspapers, emails or even from friends. It is partially true because blogging does make you some residual income. Provided you made quite a some good post that keeps people from coming back to your blog. I have been pretty lazy the past 2 weeks and most of my blogs and websites are not quite updated, nevertheless, income does remain pretty steady and does not drop, of course, I could not do this for months like what most people would say, financial freedom.

I do make money while sleeping are mainly because of:-

  1. Years of blog post inside this and most of my other blogs.
  2. Quality blog post does make people come back for more.
  3. I am always thinking of new ideas or posts that are different from the mainstream but does get pretty good search.
  4. Persistant throughout the years of posting with little to no income.
  5. Years of experience in SEO and Internet Marketing.

Okay, this is not intentional as I was spending some time with my family and daugther, some time on my job, and helping my wife with some new business. Although I may not be as successful as those big time blogger but I am still doing pretty decent on my online empire.

Chitika Review – I am liking it

Posted by Adi Wong On June - 25 - 2009

As always, whoever pay us more we like them right? This is partially true because Google Adsense is still my highest earner. Previously I did started well with Kontera but income slips to cents/day altough traffic does increases and I felt trap because my earning is at $50.00+ but the payout is only at $100.

Chitika is a totatly different advertisements system, a little similar to amazon ads and having some inteligent to detect the source of the traffic from search engine by showing relating products or services. Chitika is pretty fair because they do not appear if there is no related ads and if the traffic is coming from non-paying region, the advertisements does not appear as well.

The ads look like this but they have quite a lot of different sizes and different type of advertisements that you could do try out on your blog.

Best of all, minimum payout is only $10.00  (via paypal) and $50.00 (via Check). I am using paypal because I could use them to purchase domain and pay hosting easily. Anyway there is method to withdraw from Paypal if the money starts piling up in Paypal. Payment is okay, one month after you accumulated the trashold (USD10 if you are using paypal).

So far, Chitika is not earning as much as Kontera as I have receives my first payment from Kontera, but Chitika was only installed one one of my blog and Kontera is actually installed on 2. With this rate, I am sure that Chitika will pickup pretty quickly.

If you are a blogger who wants to earn some small money for domain and hosting, you should check out Chitika.

p/s This is my personal Chitika Review, you have have a different experience.

Will you quit if Blogging earns more?

Posted by Adi Wong On March - 4 - 2009

I am sure that there is a lot of bloggers out there wishes to earn more money so that they could quit their rat race job. Or some of you out there are affiliate markerters, SEO gurus and Internet Marketing experts, who are trying to get a decent living working hard to have an earning that surpass your current salary.

Don’t be afraid to admit it as I am also one of the people in this list :) . My goal is to earn $100 per day as of now and I am pretty sure that I will not quit my job as I am like my current job that I just started in the technology field. But because I started in a new field, my pay is low. Hopefully I could excel.

I am not exactly earning solely from blogging as I have a classifieds website (this is my first website), community portal, blogs, ecommerce and also a business website. All this contribute to my current online income. As said, my plan was not to replace my current job but things may change if my online ventures requires more time and attention.
