I make 100% of my income online and I have done so since 2007.

I have 32 blogs and 537 web sites, but I’m also online an average of 12 to 16 hours a day in order to manage all of them and keep them all current and up to date. It can be done, but not if you have a day job besides.

How I make money with them? Here are the sites that pay me:

Zazzle (I’m a professional artist, painter and illustrator)(I bring in about $200 per month here)

Squidoo (I write how-to and self help articles)(I bring in $75 to $200 per month here)

Etsy (I’m a doll maker) (I make $30 – $200 per doll sold)

LuLu (I’m a self published author) (I make about $4 per book sold)

Amazon (Marketplace)

Amazon (Associates)

Associated Content

eBay

CafePress

SpoonFlower (I’m a fashion and fabric designer)

Commission Junction

LinkShare

Share A Sale

PepperJam

Helium

Avon (I’ve been a representative for 16 years – sell exclusively online)

I use my blogs, FaceBook, Twitter, and MySpace to promote all of the above. I am also a member of more than 300 different forums and online groups. I also own 12 forums of my own besides.

If you want to make money the same way I do, just Google each of them by name, go to their websites, sign up, and than follow the instructions from each individual site.

I am constantly looking for new ways to make money online and every time a new site shows up I join up for it’s Beta Test run. Some flop and disappear after a few months, but a few (namely LuLu and SpoonFlower) go on to become big hits, and in the long run, it’s usually the Beta testers who end up being the big money makers down the road, so the earlier you join a site, the better your chances of a higher income.

It should also be noted that my blogs are far from new, I’ve been online on chatrooms and forums 6 days a week since 1997, and I’m a professional author who write between 2000 to 13,000 words per day.

My oldest blog was started in 2003, currently has more than 4000 posts on it, most posts averaging no less than 1500 words, is a very tight niched blog catering to self published authors, and since I started tracking it in 2007 has had over 200,000 unique visitors and usually gets over 1000 visits per day.

To make money online:

Be creative. Be unique. Be you.

Always remember that people read blogs because they want useful information, honest opinions, and to find others who think, say, like, and do the same things day do. Their first priority is to get unique original information. They do not come to your blog looking to buy something. If they want to buy something they are going to hop in their car and drive to WalMart, not rush to your blog!

Original content. NEVER EVER under ANY circumstances plagerize someone else’s work. If the writer catches you and reports you, you’ll end up with a $25,000 minimum fine and up to 25 years in prison.

Don’t think about money. Have fun. Talk about EVERYTHING that pops into your head, no matter what it is. Have fun. Interact with your readers. Sign autographs when your readers meet you in person (and believe me, if you become famous enough, they will find you!) Be real. Be you. Share your likes and dislikes. Talk on your posts the EXACT same way you talk face to face in person.

Write about things that make you happy. Forget about money. Don’t even think about making money when you are writing your blog posts. Write now, worry about money later.

Go niche. Know your topic. Love your topic. Live your topic.

Don’t know what to write? Ask yourself what you know and write about it: Do you love dogs? Write about dogs. Do you read Horror novels? Write Horror book reviews. Do you spend your free time watching for UFO’s? Keep track of your UFO findings on a UFO themed blog. Did you survive a drive by shooting? Write self help and support articles for other survivors. Do you like eating out every week? Write weekly reviews about local restaurants. Do you breed exotic fish? Than start a question and answer site where fish owners can ask for your advice.

Never give advice you do not follow.

Never promote a product you do not personally use. If you would never buy a Honda, than don’t tell your readers they should be driving one. If you’ve never been on a cruise, than don’t promote cruise line tickets. If you hate the smell of a certain perfume, don’t tell others to buy it.

Don’t be afraid to give bad reviews. If you had a bad allergic reaction to a new face cream – than warn others by sharing with them what happened to you!

Look around your house and find out what you use every day – toothpaste, soda, bread, shampoo – if you use it regular than you know it and love it and will be able to write a 100% honest review about it. Than Google it and find their affiliate program and start promoting it.

Most of the major name brands – including WalMart, Macy’s and Avon, use LinkShare to manage their affiliate accounts, so make sure you sign up with LinkShare if you haven’t already.

Read books, watch movies, listen to music, than join Amazon Associates and start reviewing (on your blog) everything you read, watch, and listen to.

And well, I’m sorry to have say this, but you kind of already need to have a lot of people seeking you out to begin with before you start blogging, if you want to make money at it. So, it helps to already be a celebrity and have tens of thousands of followers on FaceBook, Twitter, and MySpace as well. It’s kind of the “big secret” to my blogging success – I have crazy fanboys and fangirls who spend their time following me around online (and offline). Like I said – I’m a professional author, so people read my books than go looking for me afterwards, so it might help you out if you took up writing books first and blogs second.

And for those who would ask, (as people always do) what it is my 32 blogs are about. I’ll tell you. Each one is about one of my hobbies, which include: Ufology, CosPlay, Costume Making, Feral Cat Rescue (I currently have 16 cats), How to Survive Being Homeless and Getting Back on Your Feet Again (I was homeless for 3 years after a flood), Faeries and FolkLore, Self Publishing, Writing Advice, NaNoWriMo, Comic Book Collecting, eBay (I’m overly addicted to it), Autism (I have it), and My Religion (I started my own religious denomination more or less).

Your Zazzle Store » Lucky, or unlucky?

savileislove		Posted: Tuesday, December 22, 2009 6:22:57 PM
Groups: Member Joined: 8/26/2009 Posts: 94		Are you guys lucky or unlucky on zazzle? Im feeling quite half and half because i get around 70-90 views A DAY, but never end up selling anything! Ive got 3 sales so far on zazzle, and im hoping for more. What do you consider yourself?
Back to top

I don’t see it as luck.

When I first joined in 2004, I had 15 products and no editing to my store front, and did zero marketing. I averaged $3 in sales per month for the first 3 years.

Than in 2007, Zazzle did a huge overhaul, and it became easy to create products (the old Zazzle was just hell to create a product.) By April I had 2000 products in my store, had begun a marketing program, and by Sept I was getting monthly checks for $25 – $30.

In April of 2007 I started creating Squidoo lenses for my Zazzle products. Each of my galleries has it’s own lens, and each of my paintings, has it’s own lens, and I made a series of how-to lenses for artists, each of those featuring my Zazzle products. All together I have created 507 Squidoo lenses, with nearly 200 of them being devoted to my artwork. After creating these Squidoo lenses, my Zazzle sales skyrocketed.

On my master gallery are links to each of my smaller galleries, so much of the traffic trickles to them from my master gallery. Each of my smaller galleries pays $25 – $75 about every other month to every 3 months.

Today, I have 8000+ products in my master gallery, plus several thousand more across 7 smaller galleries. I spend an average of 8 to 10 hours a week painting and drawing. Another 10 or 12 hours a week scanning art, uploading art, and than I spend4 or 5 hours per day 4 or 5 days per week creating new products. I average about 10 to 30 new products added to my gallery each week. And now my monthly checks from my master gallery are rarely less than $75, with a few being over $200 and sales continue to grow each month. My master gallery get 100+ visits on “slow” days and and over 1,000 visits on “busy” days. If my earnings continue to rise at the rate they are right now, I will be a “ProSeller” by Spring of 2010.

In short, there is no “luck” in my success on Zazzle. My first couple of years on Zazzle, I spent only a few hours a year on Zazzle and made only a few dollars. In my last 2 years on Zazzle I spend and average of 20 – 30 hours a week working on Zazzle, and now make a full time income here. So, no, not luck, but hard work. You get out of Zazzle exactly what you put into it.

Waiting for Emmett to come.

Than in 2007, Zazzle did a huge overhaul, and it became easy to create products (the old Zazzle was just hell to create a product.) By April I had 2000 products in my store, had begun a marketing program, and by Sept I was getting monthly checks for $25 – $30.

In April of 2007 I started creating Squidoo lenses for my Zazzle products. Each of my galleries has it’s own lens, and each of my paintings, has it’s own lens, and I made a series of how-to lenses for artists, each of those featuring my Zazzle products. All together I have created 507 Squidoo lenses, with nearly 200 of them being devoted to my artwork. After creating these Squidoo lenses, my Zazzle sales skyrocketed.

On my master gallery are links to each of my smaller galleries, so much of the traffic trickles to them from my master gallery. Each of my smaller galleries pays $25 – $75 about every other month to every 3 months.

Today, I have 8000+ products in my master gallery, plus several thousand more across 7 smaller galleries. I spend an average of 8 to 10 hours a week painting and drawing. Another 10 or 12 hours a week scanning art, uploading art, and than I spend4 or 5 hours per day 4 or 5 days per week creating new products. I average about 10 to 30 new products added to my gallery each week. And now my monthly checks from my master gallery are rarely less than $75, with a few being over $200 and sales continue to grow each month. My master gallery get 100+ visits on “slow” days and and over 1,000 visits on “busy” days. If my earnings continue to rise at the rate they are right now, I will be a “ProSeller” by Spring of 2010.

In short, there is no “luck” in my success on Zazzle. My first couple of years on Zazzle, I spent only a few hours a year on Zazzle and made only a few dollars. In my last 2 years on Zazzle I spend and average of 20 – 30 hours a week working on Zazzle, and now make a full time income here. So, no, not luck, but hard work. You get out of Zazzle exactly what you put into it.

Waiting for Emmett to come.

How to price a spell for sale to clients

In talking about the possability of selling my spells online, the discussion of how to price my spells came up. I determined that it was not possible to sell my spells for less that $300 per spell, and even that was pushing the limits, with prices of $500 or $700 range being a better option. Once I had said this though, I was posed the following question:

Why would your spells so expensive? I see other Witches selling spells online for only $30 or $50 per spell, heck, I can get a mass produced Voodoo Doll for ten bucks on Amazon! I bet you’d sell more spells to more people if you brought the price down by a few hundreds dollars. Isn’t it to your finacial advantage to sell more spells at a lower price?

It is an interesting matter, the topic of how to price a spell for sale, and I have decided to devote a post to explaining how I came up with my figures.

Fiirst off, I would like to point out, that in September of 2009 (just a few months away) I will be celebrating my 30th year of practicing Witchcraft. I have been a practicing Sea Witch since September of 1979. In my 30 years of spell casting, I have never once recieved payment for my services. Not one single penny. I have always simply helped those in need, as the need was found. Likewise, my use of Poppets (Voodoo Dolls) has been on a very traditional basis, in that the client, never has actual contact with the doll itself. I keep and later destroy the doll. I complete the spell from start to finish. The client takes no part in the spell being cast, never has the doll in their possession, and never even sees the doll at all.

The move to selling the spells online, results in a need for a slight change in my methods: namely, the client will recieve the doll, use the doll, take an active paart in the spell casting ritual, and if need be, they will destroy the doll after the spell is complete.

The difference in price results from Federal, State, and Local laws, which require a change in the materials I will be useing to make the dolls. When the doll itself never comes into physical contact with the client, it is possible for me to make the doll out of any material I happen to have laying around. However, should the client need to come into contact with the doll, Federal, State, and Local laws require that the doll can only be made out of certain types of mmaterials and that said materials were bought new and unused and are certified as safe for use in items for sale to the public. In other words, when the doll was not made available to the client, I could make it out of old .99c peices of fabric I found at Goodwill, whereas when the doll comes in contact with the client, I must go out and buy the cloth for $7.95 – $54.95 per yard from Jo-Anne’s Fabric Store. What this means is, by selling my spells online, I have increased my overhead by as much as 500%! This in turn means that there is no way for me to offer the spells without pay, due to the fact tha I must buy the materials to make the doll. This means I can not sell each doll for anything less than the cost of the fabric used to make it.

Quality of the cloth is another factor to consider. The cloth I use for my dolls is a high quality 100% cotton. Those $10 Voodoo Dolls on Amazon, are made out of polyester. Polyester is a man made material, and does not conduct a high output of energy. Poly-Cotton has some cotton in it, and thus a higher output of energy as the percentage of cotton in it increases. Of course the more cotton in the fabric, the higher the cost of the fabric, and 100% cotton is a high range fabric as a result. Now, if I was worried about cutting costs and making a finacial success of things here, I would do like those mass produced dolls and use poly or poly-cotton, however, the weaker energy output would result in a much weaker and far less effective spell. 100% cotton is going to put out the highest out put of energy possible for a fabric to put out, thus resulting in a far more powerful and effective spell. So, by cutting corners on cost, I would have to also cut corners on the effectivness of the spell as well, and I’m not willing to do that. But I do have to buy the fabric to make the doll, and so again, I can’t sell the doll for anything less than the cost of the fabric.

Of course it’s not all about the fabric. I use crystals and gemstones in my spell casting, and gemstones being a commdety means that during a ressesion, their value goes higher and higher while the value of  paper money goes less and less. The end result is, an Amythest crystal which in 2005 I could have bought for $3 now sells in 2009 for $30. And here’s where selling the spells  directly to the client, as opposed to me preforming the spells alone, comes in: I can reuse the same crystal for each cllient. Thus my $3 crystal can be used over and over again for years, so long as I purify it and reenergize it between clients. However, when I sell the spell to the client, the crystal has to be sent to them, along with the doll. This means that now, instead of useing one crystal for every one, I now must buy one crystal per client. This means that I can not sell the spell for anything less than the cost of the crystal or gemstone. (Keeping in mind here that some crystals and gemstones sell for $500 or more per stone!)

There is an advantage to this change, of sending the crystal directly to the client. Though it will cost the client more money to buy the spell, it will however be a stronger, more powerful, and longer lasting spell. Here’s why: When I cast a spell, reusing a crystal, I had used on an older spell, there is a chance that some of the old energies are still effecting the crystal and thus causing the spell to not be as effective as it should be. Also, once I have finished the spell for one client, and reenergized the crystal for the next client, the crystal has not had it’s connection with the first spell broken, which means the first spell will begin to weaken from that point onward, until it is rejuvinated. 

However, if the crystal is instead given to the client, the cystal will continue to work on the spell every day, and each time the client picks up the crystal, the crystal becomes slightly more energized making the spell slightly more powerful each day, instead of growing weaker each day. What this means is, that a spell which would  have lasted only a few days, without the crystal’s connection, will now last for weeks, months, or possibly even years, because the crystal is focused only on  this one spell and never used for any other spells. The end result is an extremly powerful and very long lasting spell.

Okay, now we come to another factor: Visualization. Certain colors and symbols each have certain universial meanings, which, even if you do not know their meaning, you are envocking their power simple by looking at them and visualizing them in your head. Now, I know most of these color and symbol meaning by heart, and can just close my eyes and visualize them in my head without the use of the actual symbol in front of me. This cuts a huge ammount of cost, because I do not have to buy physical repesentations of the colors and symbols and when doing spells fulling on my own, I have no need for them. However, when a client buys a spell, nine times out of ten, said client has no idea which color to use when or what they symbols even look like let alone what they mean. This posses a problem and results in the need for the client to have in their possesstion some way for them to visualize and know what to visualize when and why. I have found a way to solve this problem, but it is not cheap.

Back to fabric used for the doll itself again. Being a Witch is not the only thing I do. I am also and auther, a writer, a painter, a pet artist,  a fashion designer, and costume maker. Well, all that rolled into one means, that I have access to fabric companies who will take your artwork and for a fee will print up bolts of fabric using your art work. What this in turn means is that in addition to designing my own patterns and sewing my own clothes, I also design the fabric used to make those clothes. And here’s where we get back on topic: To solve the visualization of symbols and colors problem, I painted a series of art works featureing those symbols and colors, and had fabric made up from them. Fabric of 100% cotton, to be used to make the caftans worn by the dolls, but fabric which due to it being custom made costs a whooping $54 per yard. Ouch! Well, once again, it’s a case of, I have to buy the materials to make the spell, and I can’t sell the spell for anything less than the cost of the materials used to create it.

Of course there are other materials included with the spell. The JuJu (or Voodoo Doll) is the main focus of the spell, and the crystal is the main battery which powers the JuJu, but than there is the soap used in the ritual baths (by the client) before the client can complete the spell, and there’s the candles, and any of the additional smaller items unique to each individual spell. Likewise there is the incese and oils I used when blessing the JuJu.  Each of those items adds up.

And finally to adress the issue of: “Wouldn’t it be to my finacial advantage to sell my spells at lower prices?”

Yes. Finacially speaking it would in fact be to my advantage to sell my spells at lower prices. And yes, if I did like other online Witches did and sold my spells for $30 or $50 per spell, I’d probably sell dozens of spell every day and make an easy quarter of a million dollars each year. But, there is a magor problem with that concept, and I’ll explain it to you. For starters, those so-called online Witches selling dozens of spells a day for $30 to $50 per spell are frauds, and I can prove it. They are selling their spells so cheaply because they are not selling you high quality spells, if they are even selling you a spell at all. How do I know this? Simple. A spell takes a lot of physical and mental energy to pull off. An effective spell can’t be ppulled off  in less time than a week. 

If the Witch is asting several smaller, weaker, or otherwise less powerful spells, she’ll at her best be able to create only 2 or 3 spells per day, but than not every day. She’ll have to take a day off every 3 or 4 days to recharge her physical and mental energies. For bigger, stronger, and more powerful spells, she isn’t going to cast more than one spell each week, not even if the client was Bill Gates offering her ten million dollars to do so.And after casting a big spell (such as a JuJu Spell) she may very well need a week or more off to reenergize her physchic strength.

I was out to become the next millionaire psychic, I’d be creating tons of tiny mini-spells and selling dozens per week at low prices. The thing is, I’ve spent much of my life homeless and living off the land; I’ve rarely had an income of more than $2,000 per year, far less than the average person earns in one month. Money, has never been a high priority in my life. My goals have always been on a spiritual level, so, I have no reason to be out there trying to pass off a bunch of non-effective cheap spells that don’t work. When I make a spell, I want to make sure it’s going to be as powerful as I can make it. What this means is, I rarely make more than 4 or 5 spells a month, usually less, because I want to conserve my energy into higher concentrations, less frequestly, rather than low consetrations very frequently. As such, I’ve never cast more than 50 spells a year, never more than one per week. So if I sell them for $300 per spell, that’s only $15,000 of whih $12,000 would have gone to materials, which means at the end of the year I would only have $3,000. Not very much, when you look at it that way is it?

What’s your take on this? I’d love to hear what you have to say about this post. Leave a comment and share your views!

How to price a spell for sale to clients

PLEASE NOTE: This answer only applies to my JuJu Spells (these starting at $300 and go up) which require the making of a JuJu (aka a Voodoo Doll), and is in response to why the dolls have such a high price tag on them. My other spells and readings are not nearly as expensive (starting at $9.95 and going up) as the JuJu spells due to the differance in materials used to make the JuJu Spells.

In talking about the possability of selling my spells online, the discussion of how to price my spells came up. I determined that it was not possible to sell my spells for less that $300 per spell, and even that was pushing the limits, with prices of $500 or $700 range being a better option.

Have you joined Magpie? I canceled my account :(

I keep hearing how great Magpie is and how you can make tons of money on Twitter with them, but I have yet to actually find a member who has made a cent yet, and I’ve asked about 400 people so far!

I did join a while back, and I had my account set so Magpie would post 1 ad for every 10 tweets I made. About a month and 2,000 posts later, I still had yet to see a Magpie add posted, and when I asked them why, they told me that the adds they post are topic related, and that I had yet to tweet on a topic they had an ad for! Well, I use twitter to talk about everything under the sun with my online friends and my tweets vary from music to movies to the weather to food to travel to video games to pets to cars to crafts to art to sewing to cooking to gardening to writing to authors to books and every other thing I talk about, so I had to wonder what kind of ads they were going to post if my topics of conversation did not match any ads they had available. 

Well, I canceled my Magpie account about a month ago, because I decided the only topics I hadn’t covered with diets, prescription drugs, and sex, and I came to the conclusion that if those are the only topics I’m not talking about, than those must be the only ads they had, and I didn’t want them on my twitter account anyways.

The way I figure, if I’m talking about a million and one topics and they don’t have an ad that covers a single one of them, than I don’t need their ads on my account at all. If they had had ads that matched my topics of conversation, I would not have canceled my account, but I just don’t like having accounts I don’t use, and it was a waste for me to keep my account with them if they were never going to post any ads on my twitter anyways.

What’s your take on this? I’d love to hear what you have to say about this post. Leave a comment and share your views!

Are You REALLY Making Money Via Squidoo?

When I first joined I didn’t know you could make money on Squidoo. I came here to build lenses and share my knowledge about my favorite subjects. Than I learned I could make money doing something I loved doing: writing about my hobbies, so now I have made I my goal to make a regular and steady income here.

My goal is to get $458 a month, in direct payout from Squidoo.com (NOT including off-site affiliate incomes) and to keep that amount rising higher as the months and years go by.

SQUIDOO INCOME UPDATES:

From April to September 2007 my income from my Squidoo lenses ranged from $5 to $12 per month.

Since October 2007, I have not made less than $24 per month.

As of February 18, 2008 I am happy to announce that my monthly income from Squidoo, now ranges from $24 to $37 per month! WOO-HOO!

The April 2008 PayOut adds yet another payout milestone for me, with $62.88! Nearly double the average I had been getting.

May 2008 payouts just came through with a total of $94.06 for me! My pay is still going up each month!

Can’t wait to see what the June 2008 payout will be. This will the first PayOut to reflect the addition of the new Glam Ads that Squidoo added to the pages.

I love watching those numbers rise!

What is it about Squidoo that has caused you to stick around?

uhm . . . I don’t know. I just plain have more fun here than on any other website I have ever visited, so I spend most of my online time here now.

I love to talk/write about things I know, and I love sharing ideas and info with other people. Squidoo allows me to do that with a limitless abandon. I can write about anything I want to, when ever I want to, in whatever way I want to, and I can do it any time night or day.

I just love Squidoo, and so I keep coming back day after day, month after month.

What is it about Squidoo that has caused you to stick around?

uhm . . . I don’t know. I just plain have more fun here than on any other website I have ever visited, so I spend most of my online time here now.

I love to talk/write about things I know, and I love sharing ideas and info with other people. Squidoo allows me to do that with a limitless abandon. I can write about anything I want to, when ever I want to, in whatever way I want to, and I can do it any time night or day.

I just love Squidoo, and so I keep coming back day after day, month after month.

What’s your take on this? I’d love to hear what you have to say about this post. Leave a comment and share your views!

Are There Other Ways To Make Money With Squidoo?

Making Money Via Squidoo Other Than From Squidoo

The figures listed in the last post are only the PayOut figures from my payments, made to me by Squidoo themselves; this is NOT however the only money my Squidoo lenses bring in.

Most of the money I make from my Squidoo lenses does not actually get paid to me by Squidoo!

Zazzle.com is where most of my “Squidoo income” comes from. I have been a Zazzler since December 2004. I am and always was an artist. I paint animals, dogs, cats, roosters, birds, flamingos, peacocks, goldfish, eels, and more using watercolors, acrylics, pastels, pen & ink, and digital media. I also illustrate books. To add to the mix I am a costumer and fashion designer, and do a lot of figure art as well for that. All in all, art is a very major part of my life.

What does me being an artist have to do with making money via Squidoo? I sell prints of my art via Zazzle. I sell T-shirts, greeting cards, mugs, mouse pads, magnets, buttons, Christmas ornaments, tote bags, and more all featuring my art on them. I have more than 20 Squidoo lenses that do nothing but promote my art for sale on Zazzle! About 65% of my lenses have at least one link on them to at least one of my products for sale on Zazzle. I make $40 – $120 a month from Zazzle via sales of my products off my Squidoo Lenses.

After Zazzle, my second biggest non-Squidoo Squidoo income comes from CafePress. Like Zazzle, I have been a member of CafePress since December of 2004. I joined them both the same day. Like Zazzle, I sell my art on various products.

Cafepress is different from Zazzle in that, Squidoo has a CafePress module which allows me to promote my CafePress items using that feature. Via CafePress I bring in about $70 per payout, which is about 3 times a year.
