Hello, What do you do if you reach $500 a month from Google Adsense? Me: I put half of that ($250) on investment by using adwords. Jenny.
Put the funds back into the business for additional content and promotion. I'll probably bank most of it once all of my sites are on auto-pilot.
save half into a savings account to pay taxes on (I realize taxes aren't 50%, but the leftovers every year make a nice nestegg) and invest the other half back into the company.
Well I would simply get all chillicious and enjoy the ride, like someone up there said, I'll too use it all offline.
I invest all of my adsense and other online profits partially in dividend paying stocks and some in high yield checking/savings accounts. Sure, in order to generate $40-$50 annually, I need to have earned and invested $1000 to begin with. But best of all the income then keeps on coming without any significant effort on my part. And best of all, income from interest and dividends is truly a passive income source.
I'm up to almost $500 this month and I plan on using about 3/4 of it to invest into a couple more sites and advertising in my local paper as well as some adwords.
I spend my money going out and having fun with my girlfriend. Mind you my earnings aren't as high as $500 a month yet.
It's something you earned for a reason! enjoy the money, and work harder because you know your site is going somewhere.
Saving and investing is always the best practice besides if you have debt, which you want to pay or making more money doesn't do you much good.
