For the last few months, I have been overwhelmed with other ventures and issues pertinent to my impending move to the extent that I have neglected this blog entirely. Although I founded this blog on a particular precept that has now expired, I plan to continue this blog as a general MMO (making money online) [...]

Occasionally, I buy and sell a few things on eBay. When selling, I always try to provide the best service possible and have until now maintained a perfect 100% feedback score. However, this week, eBay made changes to the way its feedback system works that seem to make the entire setup very biased [...]

March saw quite a spike in traffic for the sites in my portfolio. Aggregated across all non-trash sites (discounting sites such as proxies, MySpace resources sites etc.), 649926 pages were pushed which is a healthy increase of about 61%, far in excess of the target 10% monthly increase.

As we get going again (and in order to facilitate a distinct feeling of deja-vu), here are my goals for this blog project for the coming year.
i. Report on making $25 000. Yes, the final target remains the same, folks. Although I set this as my target some four months since at the commencement of [...]

During this time, I was not completely away from the ’net but much of my efforts when on the computer were spent elsewhere (I have a few small developments to report on - perhaps in [...]

Just a small update detailing what I have been up to the past few days. The proxies are running well, and AdBrite is comfortably installed on the proxied pages. Daily returns from AdSense seem to fluctuate markedly while AdBrite’s are consistent, even showing a slight upward trend as daily page impressions increase.

Since my last brief dispatch, I have been working like a Trojan in order to get some sites up and running for the commencement of this informal challenge. I figured I should have a little passive income trickling in from the outset for two main reasons. First, the psychological boost of seeing some immediate return [...]

Following on from yesterday’s notions on accruing additional startup capital, I took time earlier to research a few ideas for celebrity type sites. In doing so, I used several free online tools and, half way through, it occurred to me that my methods of research would make a good blog entry and potentially be useful for others.

With so little start up capital, my immediate focus will be endeavours offering a quick return at minimal expense. I have perused various forums and other blogs in order to determine the best entry points and several options beckon.

In my eager haste to get this blog started, I neglected to mention in the inaugural entry that I do have a very small amount of start up capital. Not a lot, mind you. About $100. And to clarify another point, the $25 000 target is $25K gross. I plan to rake in that amount [...]
