Edit: Forgot all the website advertising revenues other than AdSense. Added it.
So I thought I should start writing things that are more personal and interesting. I ended up with this crazy idea – posting about my online income. People always want to know how much people make online, and more importantly, how they have made the money online.
Listed below are my primary sources of income from last month, June, 2010.
- Google AdSense – $740.91
- Sales of my own products – $960.75
- Amazon Associate Program – $54.67
- Other affiliate / partner programs – $932.44
- Website advertising revenues other than AdSense (such as the buy sell ads on Kavoir.com) - Roughly $250
And the total amount of earnings I have made online from last month is about $2938. It’s not bad considering I spend like only 3 hours a day and 5 days a week working from home on my PC to get all this. The above earnings didn’t include my freelance projects which I used to rely on heavily for the primary source of income. I don’t quite like them because it’s not passive so I’m giving up on them. Unless it’s a very interesting project that I feel compelled to work on, I’d not do it for less than 5 figures.
If you would like to know how you can do this yourself, making 4 figures monthly, feel free to comment below and let me know. I will help as much as I can. Otherwise, what can you suggest as an interesting topic for Kavoir.com?

How can you do that? I am a LAMP developer.I like reading your articles! Please help me how making 4 figures monthly.Thank you!
How good are you in LAMP developing? If you are better than average, you may get some decent rates looking for jobs at webmaster forums such as http://www.digitalpoint.com. Make sure you provide a strong portfolio before advertising your services. The rate I was getting when I first got started there a few years ago for PHP developing was $10 – $15. Not bad for non-US freelance developers. If you keep pleasing your clients, you will soon find enough jobs to make it full-time. But it’s tiring because rarely any clients let you go without bothering you for fixes and changes. That’s why I left the job to find more passive income streams.
Hi Yang, are your earnings only from this blog or do you have more websites?
I have quite some sites ranging across a variety of niches. Not just this blog and webmastery. However it’s definitely possible to hit this mark by a single site, but you need to have a remarkably great website to do that.
Cool.
I’m planning on launching my site this year – I’ve been doing frontend development for 2 years now since i finished school. Seeing this numbers really gives me some positive energy for future.
Great to know that. Just keep trying and testing. Anyone can do a good job making money online.
Hi Yang;
Just wondering, what products of your own do you sell online?
