Celebrating My First $1000 Month

1. 39

   Spacey Graceyposted 13 years ago

   Can't wait til the month's up, and I know I shouldn't start celebrating until the checks are in the post, but that won't be for weeks, and I am far too excited. 90% on Amazon, 10% from Google, but together they have tipped me over $1000 for the month.
   
   Grinning like a Cheshire cat.
   
   Hoping this will serve as inspiration to others as I worked many many hours for no money without knowing whether that work would pay off.

      Thanks for pointing that out Oli - speed typing with small children hanging round the house = lots of mistakes
      
      I meant $1000 - I've corrected it now.

      Lol - I have no idea if I signed up under a referal or not. I joined after reading a Hub blog article about Girly-Girl and thought I could probably make a go of it- glad I did now. Hopefully there will be more months like this to come.

    Wow!  I'm impressed!  I had never made a penny with Amazon and haven't been adding those capsules in a long time and even went back and eliminated them from old hubs.  Perhaps I had better start adding some? 
    
    This October will be my first $100 month with Google Adsense and I thought that was good.  I really need to learn more!  Can't wait for Hubcamp coming to Houston next March.

    Wow, $1,000 in a month and most of it coming from Amazon. That's pretty incredible. I've been a member two months longer than you, but your stats put me to shame (and inspire me to keep writing!).

    Gracey,
    
    Awesomely happy with the news you have broken another milestone. If someone or even myself had told you 7 months ago, your experience here would be enough to greatly affect your life and that of your family in a positive way, you may have well laughed at us.
    
    Really happy you have reached a point where it is all strawberries and cream from here on in.
    
    Rae,
    Congrats to you as well, looking to the day when your Amazon and eBay gets up and close to your adSense.
