October 2016 Online Income Report

We are now in November, and quite honestly I am pretty shocked a how fast this year has gone! I am looking at my 2016 yearly goal and kind of freaking out as I write this October 2016 online income report and you are going to understand why.

Last month I told you about my doubts and little meltdown regarding routines and this blog. I asked myself last month what was I chasing with this blog. What do I want?

This was an eye opener for me and to be honest, I am not seeing anything changing since the 4th quarter started. Pageviews aren't going up; I am not really looking into sponsored posts because I want to keep them to a minimum, but I will be honest they have helped me with much-needed fund this year.

It got me thinking that I needed to find myself into a mastermind group with like bloggers who want to succeed. I have a wonderful blogging friend who I trust and we help each other out and we were both talking about having a small group that will push each other and commit.

My thought process is that next year I want to be in a group with 5 bloggers who are willing to be honest and help each other up. Bloggers who are  committed to meet at least once a month and even go on a small blogging retreat! This is not a blog tribe but a group of bloggers who want to succeed in their blogging business and work together.

How I Managed To Make Over $11K In 7 Months From Home

The problem is that I don't know where to begin, I don't know if I want to commit to a mastermind and lastly, where do I find committed bloggers.  Honestly, I am not even sure if mastermind group will be a goal for 2017, but it sounds so tempting!

Anyone with any suggestions or ideas regarding a blogging mastermind group, please contact me. Anyway, I am still positive that I will reach my goals for my blog business and go through my EBA course and Market affiliate course, which I recommend, and continue going.

If you are new to my blog, for quite some time I have started writing about my monthly online income report to help me get out of my comfort zone and for accountability. I became a stay at home mom after working for over 15 years. This journey was rough for me, and not just financially, but emotionally too. I formed some stay at home mom bad habits that led me to get out of my comfort zone, and that led me to start making money starting a blog.

I use BlueHost to start my blog, and personally, never had any issues with them. It is affordable, and for over three years, it is the company I use to run My Stay At Home Adventures with no major issues what so ever.

After reading this book, How To Blog For Profit: Without Selling Your Soul, I became more confident and decided I could increase my income. The funny part was that I decided to aim low when it came to my income goal. I didn’t dare to dream big at the time.

I joined EBA (Elite Blog Academy) and that changed the way I handled my blog. I learned so much from turning my blog into a business and started from there. It was when I lost a chunk of my income that the drive to make more money from this blog became more important.

So far this year I have made over $11,000 in seven months, and all from the comfort of my home. I didn’t work long hours, and honestly, I didn’t work much on my blog due to health reasons. I am proud of my blog accomplishments today, though. I am also proud that I made that money on my own.

Below are my 2016 blog goals I created earlier this year:

A New Look! – I continue to work on behind the scene to make this happen, and you should see this late spring/early summer. – Done

Continue to grow my business – I am seeing a growth in my affiliate sales thanks to Michelle's course.

Increase my page views to 250,000 – I am trying to make it to 50,000 by the end of the year now.

Earn a monthly income of $2,000 a month – When I lost a chunk of our income, I was panicking, but I sure was so wrong about it. I am now averaging $13K so far but who knows if I'm going to reach this goal.

Help others – Giving back is an amazing feeling. As the year progresses, this is something that I enjoy doing. Seeing others succeed warms my heart. – Always.

As you can see from the goals above, I have completed some, and not completed others; but the year is not over, and my drive is still there.
