2007 Goal Reached Eight Months Early

April 10th, 20077 Comments

On January 1st 2007, in a New Year’s Resolution Blog Post, I had this to say:

In December 2006, I pulled in about $1760 from a variety of sources (AdSense, Text Link Ads, Amazon, private ad sales). That’s not quite a livable wage in America. However, my goal is to make at least $3500 in December 2007, which positions me to take this on as a full time job. Total freedom.

At the time I thought it was a daunting goal. But I should have known better. The web is good. Very good. Should I expect $7000/month by August 2007? Who knows. But that’s a goal.

Just wanted give you all an update and also an encouraging word. When the ball starts rolling, it just keeps picking up speed. The hard part is getting to that place where the ball starts rolling. Just keep pushing and striving and you’ll get there.

2007 Goal Reached Eight Months Early

Great Job! Real inspiring for someone like me that is getting ready to launch their first website. Is the 3500 pure profit and is it from the college-startup blog only?

Love the approach Ben…awesome stuff and hope you crush your goals!

Deron,
Oh, definitely not all coming from College Startup. CS has just started turning a profit, and it makes about $100/month. I think of CS more of as a creative outlet to unleash some of my ideas.

It’s revenue before expenses. Expenses only run about $300-$400/month or so.

I have about 20 websites that contribute to the total amount and about 10 more in development. However, the majority of revenue comes from 3 or 4 of those sites.

Congratulations…and nice blog, I just subscribed!

Jeff | April 12, 2007

awesome, but i was wondering how long did it take you to build 20 sites?

Shaun Carter | April 13, 2007

Congratulations on the great start, good luck reaching the $7,000 in August. I think it’s definitely possible.

Alex | April 14, 2007

Congratulations on your successes!
