I just realised I past an important milestone last week - I’m making over $1000 a month from my various blogs.

I’ve been blogging semi-seriously for just over a year and a half now, so it’s taken a while to get there - and given the fact I’m living in London and the exchange rate sucks right now, $1000 a month is nowhere near enough to live on. But it’s a nice feeling nonetheless.

Of course, Money Blogger is still less than a month old and is only responsible for a tiny fraction of that $1000. But in the process of starting this blog, I’ve probably learned as much about making money from blogging as I did in the year and a half I’ve been blogging.

In case you’re wondering, the biggest earners for me at the moment are Text Link Ads, AdSense and private ad sales. All of them have their place and they all have advantages and disadvantages, but increasing private ad sales are my primary long term goal - and that’s entirely down to there being no middle-man to pay with private ads.
