Just got a cheque in the mail for $60 USD 
Turns out some links I set up ages ago, have made me some money with all of 5 minutes worth of work. Best of all, I wasn’t even planning to make sales, I added the links just to have some extra content on the site.
How great is that ?
Yeah after a few years of living on student support I have a job. I’m working out the back of a nice coffee shop / deli type setup, the owner is great and the work isn’t very demanding :p
Got my first full shift Thursday (I had a few hours trial today) and on Saturday I’ll do the setup alone. Because it works in with my study hours I’l have plenty of time for both I hope
A few days ago I helped a friend set up a fresh gmail account, godaddy account, hosting, and paypal account, so he could manage his own domain name. When he went to pay for the domain of course, and tried to pay through paypal, it would only let him pay by credit card.
I had already sent enough to his account to cover the domain, but apparently he can only use the account if he has a credit card. WHY ? He chose paypal because he doesn’t have a credit card. If he wanted to pay that way he would have done so on the site without using paypal.
Their customer support sent an email that basically said a credit card is his only option to actually use the account. Useless.
Taking a big step today and buying some traffic to see how it fares on my site. I’ve been ranking productivity at about 130% average on bookmarkers, SE, and trade traffic, it will be interesting to see how this compares. That siad, I’m only buying bargain traffic at $1 per thousand 
For the first time, I have rankings for a few keywords that could be profitable. Right now it’s about 500 extra unique hits a day. I need to alter my pages to make some cash, while maintaining the rankings. I could alter them and lose the rankings, but I’m not making much how it is, so I plan to alter the pages. Too bad if the traffic then dries up.
