Happy New Year! (kindda late)

I hope everyone had a great New Year celebration.  I know this post is kind of late, but I was away for most of Christmas and New Year and just got back in town.  Since I’m not (..not yet) a hard core blogger I don’t have the luxury of ‘mobile blogging’ capability.

So did I spend all my riches earned this year on a New Years eve party?  NOPE!  I actually had a pretty quite New Years Eve!  I spend most of the night planing for 2008, pausing the last 10 second count down and kiss and hug the ones I love and then it was back to work!

Well it’s almost 10 days into the new year, have you made your plans yet?  One thing I’m planing on changing is to increase my monthly income from this blog from ‘covering weekend bar tabs’ to something more!  My girlfriend said my blog tag line makes me sound like an alcoholic anyways.  So the challenge to myself this year is to make this blog break at least the 5 digit mark in monthly revenue (yes $10,000).

Here are some summarised report of my top 5 money in 2007 (numbers are for the whole year.

1. Adsense $747.85
2. Private Ads $375.00
3. Affiliate Programs $242.29
4. ClickBank $172.92
5. Text Link Ads $112.82

I know it’s nothing to brag about, but keep in mind I started this to make a few extra bucks for my weekend outings, with minimum efforts.  Now it’s time to put in some efforts!!

What’s on the agenda for 2008?

1. More organized ad sale (working on it)
2. Increase efforts on what I’ve tried and made money: (BANS, SEO, New affiliate programs to try such as TTZ Media, DealDotCom)
3. Try some new strategies: Google Time (just read that the other day), Free Google Ads (which I read the past few days and seem promising, will update with a review next week)

Good luck in 2008!
