Let's Do More Than THINKING

Hello there!

Instead of just THINKING of writing, why not write?

After blogging for 2 1/2 years, I'm finally starting a post as a document before I post it to the blog. I'm using Google Docs & Spreadsheets which I can use because I have Gmail. I highly recommend Gmail.com because of the web-based extras (like Google Docs & Spreadsheets) that actually work, as well as the huge storage all for free.

I am close to getting paid for writing. If you are patient with yourself and your situation, you can get paid, too. By the way, if you are already getting paid to write, what I have to say may be too elementary for you. All people of goodwill are welcome, though.

One way to get paid is unique to the web. I know a site where you post an article and after the article is approved, you get paid a little bit every time someone visits and clicks on an advertisement. One aspect of this site that I find most interesting is the financial tracking. I have one article that is making 5-6 times the amount of my "second place" article.

I have noticed two things:

1) I can see an increase in how much money this particular article generates for me every month.

2) I can see the types of topics that generate the most revenue at this site.

Because I see an increase every month, I think a logical conclusion is that there is either a growing number of people interacting with this site every month or a growing number of people interested in this subject. I find it encouraging that the site is growing because as I understand the "deal", I will get paid for the rest of my life by this site.

With the ability to see how the readership values each topic, I can choose to write in only my favorite areas or I can choose to write in the areas that are favorites of the readership. If I choose those subjects that the readers prefer, I can generate more revenue faster. I like having that ability to choose based upon measurable results.

Would you like the ability to measure how much people like what you write? Are you ready to take advantage of that knowledge to create higher revenue for yourself?
