Back online now and happy St.Patricks Day.
I have been working in London for 3 weeks now, I missed my daughters 3rd birthday, but actually earning money and sending it back for them more than makes up for it.

Ok am I making money online?
Well so far this blog has pulled in $10 dollars from people just clicking on the Google ads (AdSense).
I have added an Amazon link (Amazon Associates) which, so far hasn't generated any cash, but I will keep you informed.
And now, hopefully, have added a 'WidgetBucks' widget, which again can make some money.

These are all experimental ways of generating money online. I started this blog knowing nothing about Making Money Online (or even writing a blog). Please read my previous posts to know where I am coming from.

My next step is to build a website (as previously mentioned), again I do not know the first thing about website building, but, after a lot of research online, it is possible. There are several different ways of achieving this without having to know anything about HTML code, so I will keep you posted.

Anyone who has read my previous posts, will know that 'Plan A' was to find a job in the middle of a Recession!.
'Plan B' was to gain some kind of Independence from employers and generate money off my own back. I decided online was the way to do it, and try to generate a few revenue streams.

I have also written some Squidoo Lenses. This can also be a revenue stream, but I think the important thing is to put yourself out there and link all your blogs, Squidoo lenses, websites etc...

I knew nothing about earning money online when I started, but am plugging away slowly. Hopefully now that 'Plan A' has been accomplished, so far, I can concentrate more fully on 'plan B'.

If you are still looking for a job, or even experimenting with Making Money Online, then I genuinely wish you the best of luck.
Take care for now.
