My Push For A $1500 January

Well today is January 15th the month is half over already. I don't know about you but for me it has went pretty quick. In my 2007 Year End post I mentioned that I had met and exceeded the earnings goals for this blog. My goal was to earn $1000 from this blog alone and $1500 total from all of my blogs. My biggest earnings for this blog are affiliate sales, paid posting, contextual advertising, and ad space sales, basically in that order. My other blogs vary between affiliate sales and paid posting. I was very happy that I met and surpassed those goals, and now it is time for some new ones.

My goal for this blog is to earn $1500 in January. I think this is a very realistic and attainable number. Now the month is already half over and I'm not yet half way to my goal so heading into the home stretch I will be making a big push. I'll be blunt, If you didn't really like me before you probably won't like me now. There will most likely be a bit more paid posting, yep maybe a few off topic, and probably quite a few more posts about my favorite affiliate programs. I do promise that I will also be posting regular content and more of it as well. I had the mosts posts ever for this blog in December and there will likely be quite a few more this month. If you don't like the currents posts just wait there will be more ;) . Please join in with me my quest for $1500 and have just a bit of paitence and understanding. A big preemptive Thanks to all of you my readers.

Here is where the earnings stand for the month.

Affiliate Sales: $424.97
Paid Posting: $142.00
Contextual Ads: $27.36
Ad/Link Sales: $10.00
Misc: $2.00

Total MTD: $606.33


I will be posting updates on the progress towards my goal every couple days until the end of the month. I hope you all will read and enjoy the journey with me.

later all and have a profitable and productive blogging day

What the F Does the C Stand 4

I know all of you have been waiting with baited breathe for my first contest. Well we are taking the plunge together. Here is the chance for all of you to win something for doing almost nothing. Hopefully you won't think this Contest is full of Sh-t . For many many years I have had the "nickname," I guess you could call it, of Cman. Here lately, probably due in part to #10 in my 10 Reasons John Chow Probably Thinks This Blog Is About Him article, I have been getting asked more and more what the C in Cman stands for. Herein lays the focus of this contest. For the person who can guess what the C in Cman stands for I will give them $100. If multiple people guess correctly the winner will be chosen by random drawing from among the correct entries. If no one guesses correctly I will randomly pick from all entries and will award the winner of the losers $20. Clarification: 1. In the words of Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez, "There can be only One." Winner that is. E...

Are We Too Connected?

I have asked myself, and others, this question many times. It all started with the answering machine. Then we had emails, mobile phones, and now mobile phones with emails. We now have Twitter, & ppl posting constantly about their lives. It isn't that I don't see how it could benefit this blog, but simply put, quite a bit of the time I don't give a da-- that you are sitting in Starbucks reading a book. Unless of course there is some benefit to me from that information, such as you are a friend I'm meeting for coffee. Also, I really don't figure you give a da-- that I am sitting somewhere either. I understand Twitter goes beyond that, but you get the point. I use twitter, and yes I've posted that I was sitting in a Starbucks. So we have people running around with their iPhones and Crackberries worried they are missing emails, phone calls, and text messages. They are doing this while listening to music and Twittering away. With all of the social networking a...
