I use to supplement my blogging income by writing for a blog that i didn’t own. I got paid around $15 dollars per post. The post could be anywhere from 100 words to 400 words. I took the job not because i needed the money, but rather for experience. I wanted to learn from this blogger. I wrote for an iphone blog. I have been a fan of the iphone every since it came out. During that same time, i started my own iphone blog. I figured that i wouldn’t need to do any additional research for this freelance gig. I don’t blog for other people anymore. I have found that the time invested is just not worth it. I would much rather invest my time into something that i own. But, i did learn something big. I learned how the bigger fish play. I learned how to think bigger with my blog. You can end up with a nice blog farm by setting up your own blog network. Here is why i think that everyone should make money online with their own blog network. Read More to Make Money Online »

I read about this about a week ago and wanted to report on this but i’ve been kinda busy. At any rate, i wasn’t surprised at the purchase price of a blog for $15 million(blogs can turn into big business), but have to admit that i found the story to be interesting. Johns Wu, a 23 year old blogger from bankoholic sold his banking blog for $15,000,000 to bankrate. The blog was set up in July of 2006. I checked out the blog and didn’t find anything special. I guess that the site ranks well for credit card and interest rate terms in search engines. Wanted to write this up to inspire you guys to dream big. Making money with you blog is something that is real. 99.999% chance that you won’t reach this level or get this lucky, but you can still make a few dimes with you blog.

If you guys wrote paid posts for payperpost you know who Colleen is. She’s the big money blogger. She is the highest payperpost earner of all time. She’s the Mohamud Ali of paid posting. That’s quite an achievement. I’ve been curious about who she is and what she blogs about for quite some time now. Never really investigated until today. Just wanted to share with you guys in case you guys wondered who this lady was too.

Who is she? How much did she make? She’s made $18,165.74 with payperpost. Well, Colleen started blogging back in 2003. She runs several other blogs. She’s 31 years old and resides in Florida with her husband. Colleen loves coca cola and 90210…and long moonlit walks along the beach??? Hmmm…i’m started to sound like a dating show host.(Wink Martindale?) Anyway you can check out her site at simplekindoflife.

Johnchow is the internet version of Tom Vu. I mean that as a compliment. He is great at getting attention and his marketing approach is brilliant. His track record speaks for itself. I downloaded his ebook back in July and i read it all the way through. The great thing was that his ebook wasn’t for sale. I don’t agree with everything that he says but there’s plenty of good sound advice for any blogger looking to monetize his site. Johnchow.com made everyone on the net feel like they too could become a millionaire by blogging. A lot of blogs still use the theme he used back in the day.(Mistylook) Many try to imitate john and one site in particular carved out its own niche, johncow.com. Today he announced that his blog broke the $20,000/month barrier. Congrats john, not bad for a site that is a year old.
