Hi,

I'm a web designer/developer and make a decent living from the internet. I earn a little from link rentals, a tiny bit from ebooks, and a good chunk from AdSense. I still keep one client to have some emergency income just in case, but I like to invest as much of my time as possible as opposed to working for earned income.

Although my adSense has been really up and down since summer, I've been above $4000 one month and as low as $1000 from AdSense the next, because google search has been almost completley dropping traffic to the site that brings most of my money. (It's an education site I have been working on - on and off in my free time since 1999).

Because of the recent problems with the google search traffic, I'm trying to get away from Google search dependency and content based sites and move towards more user and community based sites that grow through viral means and don't depend so much on Google. Also these type of sites have much more leverage once they get going.

I hope to to contribute as well as learn from others in the forum. :thumbup:

Welcome to EF. You are right, its good to depend on more than one source of income (Adsense etc.)

Hello buckenmeyer, welcome to the Earners Forum! Come back often! You sound very knowledgeable - always a good thing!

You'll likely learn much here as well - good luck to you!

I agree wit KC TAN - You're right - it's always good to have more than one source of income and not depend strictly on Google, since there algorithms and such change constantly. It still can provide some nice means though if you can keep up with their changes and adapt - hopefully, you'll be able to learn more about those changes here! :-)

Take care and have a happy, safe, and prosperous 2007!

Sincerely,

Joe Chengery III
