yes, i now make $10/week...

Congrats, hopefully soon I'll reach this achievement

 

I disagree. Yes, $10/week may only work at to 1.43/day, but just look at the potential. If you work hard and stick to it, you could so earn much more than that. Or, as you say, you could get a job in a supermarket making $6-$7/hr. and be stuck making not much more than that for the rest of your life. I would rather take the chance on a website where the potential is not limited. Plus, I find working on my website a lot more fun than I think working in a supermarket would be and I am home to take care of my three small children. It is a win, win for me. All sites have to start somewhere.

Kudos to the op for your accomplishment. I found your post inspiring. Thanks for sharing.

 

well i actually do have a part-time job in a supermarket, earning ~$13 an hour. I say part-time, it's basically full time

but literally all my free time is spent on the net. 8 months ago i didn't know what adsense was, what html was... what blogs were

i'm addicted now. The possibility of being my own boss and getting all the profits - potentially unlimited, is great motivation for me.

i've more sites in the pipeline so hopefully, i can start to build an adsense empire and steadily increase my earnings

 

Congrats on your new earnings. I'm hoping to at least make $10 /month very soon, but that's when I get my dedicated server up and running. Anyways, I hope you really do succeed with AdSense and I hope it makes it so you wont have to do that Supermarket job of yours...some have made AdSense into a living!

Good luck! rep+

 

Sorry, I didn't mean to down working in a supermarket. Hope it didn't come across that way. If it did, I apologize. I was just trying to make a point. Congrats again.

P.S. $13/hour is pretty good pay.

 

Good luck.

 

$10/week is a great milestone... I remember the week I setup adsense, I did $30 the first week, then $2 each week after that... Kind of a heart breaker... But with hard work I got the adsense paying a modest $40/week... The bigest milestone is the $100/month mark...

 

What caused your profits to drop so sharply?

 

no offence taken!

it's boring, depressing and highly frustrating, along with being pretty heavy work

but it's good money, and means i can plough it into my websites, buy more sites etc..

if i could earn just $100/week from the internet, i'd drop the job like a hot potato despite the fact i'd be taking almost $300 of a pay cut

 

congrats nice tips

 

Congrats, and thanks for the tips. Threads like this one keep up my motivation Rep added

Hehe i agree that working in a supermarket is not nearly as satisfying as working on websites.

When you like to work on websites, learn html/php/sql/stuff and make some money along the way that's perfect. But still don't put ALL your time into something that does only make $2 a day...

It's tempting though...

 

you needed six months to get 100$. Wow, it is quite profitable job .

The good thing is that you might now have approx. 300$ monthly . Congratulations!

 

i think it was something new on the site so alot of clicks, and no smart pricing yet... then i got smart priced to hell and back... so i had to tweak placements, and targeting...

 

good tips for begineer. There's a 10, there will be 100 . I have started from similar background and now i'm earning around 10$ per day your tips is good for beginner but remember to have better unique content. It's a great way to start.

 

I think his goal is to make more than 2$ per day, and thats why he is putting down much time into it (if he does)
