(This was posted to my account on Active Rain a long time ago! It’s been sitting in my drafts and decided to publish it “for the record” and for posterity. Some of it is no longer accurate. For example, I publish my income reports here and not on my main site About Social Anxiety.)
Ok. On to the income report!
I’m actually thinking about putting my account here on hold and posting these reports on my main blog instead. This account is quite costly, and I just don’t find that I’m using it often enough. Basically, it will take forever to earn my free account. So if this is the last income report or post that you see from me here, just head over to About Social Anxiety to see how I’ve progressed.

July INCOME:
Advertising (Media.net): $7.85 (I moved my sidebar to the left, and added these ads in the middle of posts)
Advertising (Infolinks): $0.64 (I’ve still been fiddling with this one. I tried adding text links but did not like how it was on my sales pages and sidebar and could not figure out how to remove)
Amazon: $10.26 (I took part in Amazon Prime day promotion)

Total income: $28.24
Monthly expenses:

Active Rain: $39
Total expenses: $96.59
Net blog income: -$68.35 (I’m getting closer to not losing money!)
Note: I’m not including any blogging courses that I purchased here. I think this month I purchased one workbook for $20.
So, my income rose from last month and my expenses stayed the same. Let’s hope this pattern continues!
