Hi,

I am coming to a year now after venturing into IM. While I have made very little money from Adsense but none from Affiliate Marketing yet, I have not given up yet as I believe in it.

I am now relooking at my strategy and trying to identify other niche product or market to work on.

I do enjoy what I am doing and I find it quite challenging but it definitely helps if the money can trickle in a bit faster else my family think that it is a hobby rahter than a business opportunity.

Nice article Darren. This is the truth, as with anything these days, patience is the key to making a project of yours perfect. I know in each of us we have our own little way of fine-tooth combing our projects making sure everything is perfect. The “blog” is one of those projects that you can actually do that with, it’s a continuous fine-tuning that will never stop as long as the blogging community keeps changing and adding new ways for bloggers to blog.

Hello, I am interested in blogginb for extra money. However, I am unsure how to go about it. I have typed a few bloggs on Blogger.com, but that is different than makeing money for blogging isn’t it? I am trying to pay off alot of debt incured from a bad divorce, and then, in time, go back to college. I am 40 and I feel as though I am outside looking in, as other people make money on the internet. I work 6 days a week as a milk truck driver. I see all sorts of opportunities to make money on the net. However , most of it seems like hype. What I’m trying to say is that I have no idea how to get my ideas out there on the net. Can anyone help?

Great points you list there. I think the difference between AdSense winners and losers is simply patience. Most people give up after a month or two of trying to make money with AdSense.. You just have to give it time!

[...] I’m talking about self-employed people who rely on blogging for the majority, of not all, of their income. The most successful I can think of right now is Darren Rowse, who currently makes 6 figures a year (USD) from Google Adsense alone across his portfolio of 20 blogs. I was planning on sharing some of the advice that I’ve picked up over the last 12 months, but as it happens, today Darren posted the best bit of advice you could possibly hear: making money from blogging takes time. He says… So if your goal is to grow a substantial online business – one of my main piece of advice is to take a long term view of it. While a very small percentage of successful online business people do seem to make it big overnight – the examples of this are increasingly becoming fewer and farer between. [...]

It takes time and it also takes a sense of what will work. Putting up a post is the beginning of the process. Who is linking to you, where are you sending information for people to find you. Are you wired to your community? Have you done everything you can to make your site user and SE friendly.

I’ve been at my present blog a little over a year and see 6-8000 uniques. and this month 600000 PV. And in my niche that is a base. Finally getting PR was great. But getting out of the sandbox will be better. That all takes time.

Great ArticleDarren. Too many people think that blogging is easy. Quality content takes time and building a strong voice takes experience. We appreciate you sharing what you have learned from both. Let me know if you ever come ot Steamboat Springs for a ski trip, I’ll hook you up. We attract quite a few Aussies here and I would be honored if you came this way.

[...] Rebelbagwan left a comment on my last post asking about posting goals. He writes that he intends to: “write 5 posts of some quality a day , so far starting from zilch getting currently 60 uniques a day and will try and double this every week , do you think this is realistic and what is your reco for amount of posts per day ( 11000 divided by 3 years per day= 11+ per day in your case ?)” [...]

Problem is in this age of instant gratification – you want everything now!

You make a good point though.
