March 2019 Income Report

If you’re new here I started posting income reports when I started this blog, almost seven years ago. I initially had goals of making a few hundred dollars per month and then slowly growing that amount. Luckily, that’s what I’ve been able to do.

In 2012 I decided that earning money online was going to be the only way I could create the life I wanted living in a small town with no good job options. I dove in head first and started trying things out. I’ve failed at sooo many different things and have had great successes with others.

I’ve earned money through being a freelance writer, virtual assistant, and blogger. (And yes, I know how crazy that sounds to most people!) Right now my income is coming solely from blogging.

I took a year off from doing income reports after the birth of my last daughter and now they’re back.

March 2019 Blogging Income

Last month I said February would probably be my lowest month income-wise. Well….in March I only beat February by one dollar! (Haha…so maybe I am right?)

In March I earned $3,013.64

(As a reminder this is the money I actually received in February.)

It broke down like this:

• Ad Networks – $1,006.94
• Affiliate Income – $1,406.70
• Sponsored Posts – $600

Nothing too exciting happened in March. I did a couple of sponsored posts. (I don’t accept many sponsored posts as I only work with companies that truly are a good fit.) Other than that traffic and income all stayed about the same.

Blogging Goals Check Up

I set some blogging goals that I want to accomplish this quarter. I’m scheduled to have these tasks finished by June. Here’s the current progress:

Get 2 Months Ahead on Content – Currently one month ahead.

Create 2 New Email Opt-ins – Haven’t started yet.

Create a Money Product – Haven’t started yet.

Resources for New Bloggers

First of all if you’re always saying that you want to start a blog but haven’t done it yet-why not? Starting a blog is not as a hard as you think or very expensive. (I have a discount affiliate link that will get you hosting for $3-$5 per MONTH depending on the plan you choose.)

Blogging is something that can open up many doors but at the same time takes a lot of learning and hard work to build up.
