I am on a new project!

Posted by Aristotle the Great | Thursday, September 11, 2008 | , | 4 comments »

In the interest of the College Kid's Quest for Cool Cash Online Experiment, I have decided to start a new project, yes I am starting a new blog. What is the blog about? Well it will help you clear your debts. Are you under debt? Then I can help you out. Yes a 19 year old boy, a geek money maker- a guy who could just manage to make 5.81 dollars in the last month is gonna teach you the way out. Sounds interesting-sounds more funny too.

Well there are many plans behind it. The actual reason to start the blog is obvious-TO MAKE MORE MONEY. I know the amount of time required will be a little too much and a lot of hard work must be put into it. But once you start making money online, there are no excuses really. So get on with it, its life after all!

The second reason is that the Experiment needs to explore the passive streams to making money online rather than the active ones. So I am trying to achieve that. So my personal advice to you all will be to have as many sites as possible. But take care to maintain them all. I know its all not that easy. But the other side of the coin is that its better to have one site earning you 100 dollars a month than 20 sites collectively erning you 100 a month. So think about that too. Its your decision.

There are many more reasons which I am going to unfold in the coming weeks. So subscribe to the Cool Experiment so that you don't miss any of the adventure. Its gonna be better and better.

The College Kid's Quest for Cool Cash Online kick started on the 4th of August 2008 and we had many ups and downs in our journey. Its nearly a month over. Today being the first of September, I thought that I should sum up a month's journey an break the numbers for you.

We started with a zero and now at the end of the month when I look back I can say that we have achieved many things in the past month. This is what we have gained from the Blogosphere at large....

*Great help from like minded bloggers
*Good comments from readers.
*Great ideas from the readers of this blog.
*A few dollars added to the experiment.
*Decent traffic obtained-over 200 visitors.
*A new attitude overall.
*Less sleep, too many posts and new pals!!

Technorati:
I don't know why but only a few bloggers bother about the Technorati rankings. Our journey is from position no.4567345 to position no.4,591,694 which is not a total failure, but a few adds to technorati favorites and a few link exchanges can may be rise our rank.

Income:
Since it was our first month, we were too much on the backfoot as far as income is concerned. It was because we needed traffic and we were finding the traffic sources and other stuff like researching on SEO, etc. However there were a few dollars in the kitty from the Experiment. This is the summary of our earnings for the month of August.

Sources:
Active:
Myhpf
Mylot
Bux.to(I am not doing it anymore)

Passive:

Google Adsense

Earnings:
Myhpf $4.80
Mylot $0-63
Google Adsense $0-38

It makes roughly about $5.81. Remember I give just a half hour for my online endeavours as I am a student. So this could have been more if more efforts were put in.

At the start of the experiment, I used to think that google adsense would be best earner for me, but sometimes even the best blog earners slip under the radar. One reason for Google adsense income not being the best because I don't get Average joe visitors but my visitors are more Tech savvy and I think they know what they are looking for so they don't click the ads.

Well September is gonna be even better with newer income sources. I may take surveys, write some reviews for companies for cash and my focus will be accumulate a lot of cash in September. Since our goal is to make a Thousand dollars this year, I think we are on the right track. I encourage my readers to help me with more income sources both passive and active.

Thats it for today, see you in September. Till then ta-da...

Guys I am feeling great today to tell you that the first few cents have been credited to my Adsense account. This money is small i.e. 18 cents, but thinking about it its passive income off this site. I had almost nothing in my Google Adsense since I joined it in May and placed it on many of my other blogs.


Obviously I gave away little efforts on those blogs so I didn't hope anything from them. But for the last two weeks of thinking about articles and a good amount of hard work has brought the first passive money here. It has now boosted my confidence and now it seems that I will be writing articles on this site very frequently from now onwards(except if its exam time).

So here I go to think about my next post. Keep visiting. Keep commenting. Till then ta-da...
