I must admit, I am going through a down time in my blogging. It’s one of those times where it is just hard to come up with something to write. I’m a week into it and still trying to get through to the other side. It’s happened before and always subsides, but during this time, I thought I would take a moment to comment on my own experience and ask a simple question.
So is blogging worth doing?
History of decloned
Let me start with some simple explanation of why I even started decloned.com in the first place…
Read More Post a comment (2)If you have been around me very much you know that I am very eager to be debt free and finances over the last year have become a personal passion of mine. But I am also very interested in web applications that can help make this easier. Recently, I found a site that looked interesting. It’s called Mint. I am hoping to get Beta Access here sometime soon so I can try it out.
I’ve decided to take Shai up on her $100 challenge with this site, decloned. I’ve already made that kind of money through selling on ebay. I sold a $15,000 item last year on commission through ebay which rocked. I also run a web business on the side (usually friends and friends of friends only). So I’ve decided to do more here and see what could happen.
Up till last month, I didn’t really bother to monetize this blog. In fact I didn’t bother to do much with it at all. But as I’ve grown more into blogging daily, I’ve revamped the site and decided to make a go of it here on a personal level too. Becca will be joining me on decloned as well so that should make it a little easier.
Now you can go to a variety of sites and get optimization tips for adsense and Amazon and Chitika, but when it comes right down to it, Ads are a necessity of the blogosphere. If you are going to make anything, you are going to have to run ads.
So as I’ve reoptimized decloned for ads, I am now ready to begin the challenge. Right now, I am running both Adsense and Context Link from Amazon.
