Today I have sold my last link placement through TextLinkAds. I recommend them if you are interested in selling some text link space. They are very easy to deal with and the payouts are fair.
Currently TLA is the main way that this blog makes money. It is about 25% of my total online income currently, but I am expecting more. I have added the ability to sell private ads using OioPublisher. This is a great plugin, very easy to install and manage. The only downfall, if you can call it that, is that it costs money. I will write a full post on it in the very near future, because it really is worth everything that you pay.
Right now I am offering 3 site wide banners and 1 inline ad. I have “default” banners located there now, so there are 4 spots available, so get them now before they are gone 
My next step in my hobby is to let one site die and build on another. The killer for me is that the site that I don’t have to time for is the one with the more profitable niche, however I have more “fun” writing for the other site. Since this is a hobby I am going to leave it this way. I may not let the other site die prese but maybe I will just let it sit and buy some post for it in the near future.
For my next step I am going to start to investigate my entry into the affiliate marketing space….again. There seems to be a number of people doing the same, but I am sure that I can succeed. I have a monthly profit goal in mind that I want to reach for the new year. If I reach it, I may plan on making this hobby into an actual company. This has the advantages of limiting my personal liability, but it costs money.
That is enough rambling for tonight. Maybe in the future when I have more cash flow into this blog I will post my earnings like JohnC and TylerC.
Ciao
