 I've earned well over $100,000 writing online. I share my writing philosophy, insider tips and lessons learned in my Make Money Blogging book. $9.98 is a small investment to make when you consider all you stand to gain. Buy the book; you'll be glad you did (also available as an ebook).

Happy New Year!
I tried my best to stay away from the computer during the holiday season. I was marginally successful. Anyway, it’s a new year and many of us are back with lofty goals. My goals for this year aren’t too lofty. I want to increase my income without increasing my workload. I want a sustainable writing [...]
My Struggle with Active vs. Passive Income
Kidgas’ comment on the recent Exceeding Minimum Wage post is the inspiration for this post. If you haven’t read his comment, please go back and do so (also, check out his Cash Flow Mantra blog – he’s got some great stuff there). His comment inspired me to back up a bit and outline my inner [...]
NJFM’s Blogging for Beginners
This is old news to folks who subscribe to the newsletter, but for those who don’t I’d like to share the release of my new ebook with you. The name of the book is Make Money Blogging. Since most of you are already blogging and have passed the beginning stage, you guys aren’t my target [...]
Freelance Writing and Rainy Days
I tried searching NJFM for the term “rainy day” and realized the only place the term showed up was on page 15 in my ebook “So You Want to Become a Freelance Writer.” Since I didn’t write about it here on NJFM I feel I need to talk about it now. Writing and Rain If [...]
The Panda Returns
You know something is up when you walk into a room and the kids suddenly get quiet and each of them has “that look” on their face. A mother’s gut knows something is up. Well, when I clicked on my statistics page for my page views, one of my sites had “that look” while the [...]
Lipstick on a Pig
Most of us start new sites/blogs because we have a passion for the subject matter. Well, let me re-phrase that. There are some sites we create because we’re passionate about the topic and other sites we create for the money. If the moneymaking sites don’t make money, I recommend getting rid of them because unless [...]
I Thought So
Being the numbers junkie that I am, I keep close track of my earnings, and to a lesser degree my page views. I especially keep track of my Google earnings to get an indication if Panda is morphing into a kinder or meaner type of animal. According to my numbers, somewhere around September 22nd, things [...]
A Melancholy Observation
In my hiatus from writing for money I was able to see which sites have been truly passive. Currently, Suite 101 and Demand Studios revenue share fall under the truly passive category for me. I haven’t written an article for Suite since May 4, 2011 and my last revenue share for DMS was written on [...]
When is a Blog Really a Dud?
My last post made me ask myself (and answer) the question of what to do with dud sites. First, before I tell you what I do with a site that I consider a dud, I need to define a dud. Keep in mind that this post is purely subjective and I strongly suggest that you [...]
I Work All the Time…When Will I Get a Break?
Oh man, I remember when I first realized I could earn money as an online writer, I felt like I worked all the time. I’d get up early and write before the kids woke up. Once I got them up, ready for school and successfully on the school bus, I’d go back to work. Sometimes [...]
