It just hit me – like a truck – that I’ve just become six figure blogger. <\/b><\/p>\n

When Andy and I selected that name for our course on entrepreneurial blogging<\/a> – earning over $100k from blogging in a 12 month period was more of a catchy name and a dream than an achievable thing – but sometime in the last month or so it actually became a reality.\n<\/p>\n

\nAugust is over and my monthly Adsense<\/a> figures were a new record – the daily average was $511.27 with the monthly total coming in at just a stones throw from $16,000 (USD). The following picture is a screen capture (with my personal details blocked out) of the monthly total. It actually ended up being 0.36 cents higher than the total you see there (it all counts I guess).\n<\/p>\n

\n\"Earnings-August\"<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\nAs you’d expect, I’m pretty happy with that total – but what made me even happier (and made my heart skip a beat) was to look at the total for the past 12 month period and realize that this month’s total took me over the magical $100,000 since 1 September last year. In fact it took me over that mark considerably.\n<\/p>\n

\nI wasn’t planning on an announcement of earnings this month – but I guess in the lead up to a course on six figure blogging<\/a> it might be a good thing to actually let people know that it’s possible for a one person show to hit that kind of mark with enough time, luck and honest hard work.\n<\/p>\n
