Still Passively Earning
Hello folks! I'm still here. In the background, lingering.
Still earning cash passively through the Internet, through blogging and through Google Adsense.
Life's changed a bunch for me, however, with the seperation of my 9 year relationship and delving out on my own. This summer has been a time of renewal and re-programming.
Right now I'm in the process of going through all of my existing blogs and making a few new entries, and deciding what it is I want to do with the various blogs for the future.
Some blogs need to be moved off of the blogger.com setup and into my own hosting space, where I use Wordpress for my preferred blog server type. I need to import entries and do a bunch of low-key template adjustments - once I find a suitable template! This has proven to be challenging, but I've recently begun looking for 'wordpress theme pack' in Google and came across a few 'packs' that include more than a single theme within them. Widget-ready even!
One of my oldest blogs has over 1000 comments waiting to be filtered through and approved or deleted as spam. I'm actually looking forward to going through that content over the next month or so (I need to set a goal to get through it all, and of course new comments are being added every day) because it gives me a lot of ideas about new entries.
One of the beautiful things about blogs is that once you get them going with enough momentum and get folks leaving comments for you and asking questions, then writing the blog in the first place becomes SUPER easy, because you no longer have to worry about coming up with topics to write about. You read your comments, and topics fly out at you like crazed bats going for your hair.
This blog... I'm not sure what I'll do with it yet. I think maybe until I run into a snag I don't like, I'll keep it where it is and keep contributing to it. Or maybe I'll set up over on Wordpress.com where the tag pages do a really good job at bringing new traffic into the blog.
Hmm, for now, I think I'll make sure Technorati tags are sufficiently set up here, even though the Wordpress category tagging setup is MUCH easier to handle.
