How slack am I?  I haven’t updated for such a long time.  To be honest I’ve had a bad few weeks, my dog passed away about three weeks ago and I was absolutely devastated.  He was only five years old and had no known health issues so it came as a huge shock when he died and it has really unsettled me quite a bit.  I haven’t been very focused on anything, personal or work, so that is one big reason why I haven’t been updating.

So, now I’m back on track and getting focused again and I actually have some good news on the reporting side of things.

I apologize I haven’t updated for a while, I’ve just been busy with other things.

I don’t have a huge update but will give a quick one for the month of June.

My first 4 blogs are doing very poorly and only the newest blog is really doing anything, but that is also quite slow.  I am getting a bit of traffic to it but unfortunately not too many clicks or sales.

I’m still working on my new blog, blog #5, and have added quite a few pages and posts now.  I feel it’s time now to start building some backlinks as I really haven’t done any backlink building at all yet with this blog.  I still want to add more content to the site and I will continue to do that on a regular basis, but I think I might try and spend the majority of my time over the next couple of weeks building backlinks.

I have written one article today that I am about to post to some article directories and I hope to write one or two articles a day for submission.  That doesn’t really sound like much and many people do much more than that, but I have trouble writing lots of articles in a short period of time, it just bores me too much.

The other day I mentioned that I had a change of strategy and wanted to work on a bigger site and targeting more keywords than just one main keyword phrase.  I chose a niche that I can relate to well and really interests me and one that I will enjoy writing about and so came the birth of blog #5.

Over the last couple of days I have added 6 pages (including a contact page and privacy policy page) and 5 blog posts.  I have enjoyed writing these pages and posts and hopefully will keep enjoying it.

I’ve planned my pages so that they have three or four keyword phrases on them.  I have a notebook where I’m keeping one page for each page of keywords that I add to my site, then I will record each time I create a backlink or an inbound link to those pages and for those particular keywords.

First the update on my blogs

Income for the last 7 days

Blog #1 – $3.74

That’s it!

But hey, it’s getting higher.  I’m really quite disappointed in this blog, even though it is actually making a little money which is more than I can say for the other three.  The other three are quite disappointing at the moment too but the reason I am so disappointed in this one is that this blog is ranking #2 on Google.

Once again I don’t really have too much to update about.  Earnings for the last 7 days are very low still:

Blog #1 – $0.68

Blog #4 – $0.54

So as you can see no big income coming in as yet.  I haven’t done much over the last week though due to sick kids and now that they are all better and back at school they have given me their cold so I feel terrible and am not getting much done at all.
