April turned out to be a pretty good month. I received an increase in proofreading and re-writing work, which I was very happy about. Those are two things I thoroughly enjoy doing, apart from running this website and earning passive income from multiple sources.

Let’s get right into it…

Income from ReplaceYourSalary.com

• ClickBank: $107.77
• PayDotCom – $56.34
• HostGator – $50
• Angela’s Backlinks: $11.25
• Paul’s Backlinks: $8
• Yarie: $23.39
• Google Adsense: $21.11
• SFI: $16.23
• Project Payday: $3 (commissions earned from promoting the program, not actually using it)
• AdFish – $4.20

Total = $301.29

Income from Internet Marketing Services

It’s been a pleasure to be able to work for a highly successful internet marketer. I’m able to learn from and apply the same strategies to my online business, all of which I’ve blogged about here at one time or another.

Total = $160

Income from Proofreading/Re-writing/Editing Services

As I said previously, I’ve gotten a decent amount of freelancing work last month. It’s great to be able to provide a high quality and much needed service, and it’s been an honor serving my clients. You can learn more by visiting the link below.

• Proofreading – $76
• Re-writing – $20

Total = $96

Income from Re-writing Service via David Hurley’s PLR Article Service Membership

It has been an honor to be able to partner with David, a good online friend of mine, and provide the re-writing portion of his article membership. To learn more about his PLR article service, visit the link above.

Total = $57.50

Total online income from all sources…

$614.79

April turned out to be my best month yet since I began my online business venture.  If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s to never give up. Giving up is very easy to do, but sticking with it when things seem impossible is where the real character lies.

In my previous post, I briefly mentioned about the importance of having a mentor or group of mentors that can guide you on the path to online business success. One of my loyal blog readers, Dennis Edell, pointed out that all successful people (especially the top 1%) have a mentor. Well, I don’t know that I’d consider myself successful (financial wise), nor am I in the top 1%, but I do have a group of mentors that have helped me out tremendously in learning affiliate marketing.

The reason for this post is to introduce you to the group of mentors I’ve had the privilege of working with. What’s unique, I believe, is that they’ve been open to helping ANYONE who is either new to affiliate marketing, struggling to make money, or looking to take their online business to the next level. There’s not too many successful internet marketers that are willing to work one-on-one with people, as pointed out by Meka, another reader of this blog.

Of course, they can’t literally work one-on-one with every single person, but I think they got a pretty good setup in place. They have a membership site designed specifically for people who want to get into affiliate marketing by setting up niche blogs. This is certainly the starting point in which anyone who is serious should take in order to start earning some extra income online.

The membership site provides an outline and step-by-step action plan to follow, from planning, getting your website set up, marketing/advertising, optimizing and bringing in a residual and passive income month after month. The mentors who started this membership site all are regular people just like you and me who had a desire to be their own boss and work from home. They saw an opportunity and did everything they could to see their dreams become a reality. They call themselves the Affiliate Power Group.

The mentors have been successfully working from home with affiliate marketing full-time for a number of years and are now sharing their experience and knowledge with the rest of us. That’s my main goal and purpose of this blog. I just love helping people and giving back, and it’s obvious that they’re very willing to do the same.

The great thing about the Affiliate Power Group is that they have a built-in forum (just updated) where you can ask questions and get direct answers from the mentors as well as other members. This is where the one-on-one attention is created because you have direct access to each mentor at anytime. You can also email or message any of the members directly for specific questions if you prefer.

As I also mentioned in my previous post, being able to have direct communication with those who are successful in your field will give you the edge you need to become successful yourself. It helps you grow mentally and provides personal development needed to turn that “hobby” of a website into a real online business. I’m not saying you have to go spend $1,000 to form an LLC, but you have to realize that creating a successful online business takes a lot of hard work and persistence. If you treat it like a real business, it’ll reward you as such. That’s something that took me a long time to realize, which is why I’m still not where I want to be yet.

Affiliate Power Group is able to help anyone just starting out, struggling to make money or trying to take their affiliate marketing business to the next level.  You can give their affiliate marketing training a try for just $1. $1 will give you access to the entire membership site plus all the bonuses. This is a huge deal, and I know once you see the value you’ll receive, you’ll want to continue your membership.

The total cost of the membership is very undervalued. Although, I like to look at it as the mentors over-delivering, which is really what they do. Seriously, learn the business or take yours to the next level for just $1 today. You won’t be disappointed.

Awhile ago I posted about David Hurley’s Internet Marketing PLR Article Membership. Well, David has just informed me that he’s offering all new members one month of free access.

However, you have to sign up using this link: http://www.grasp-the-nettle.com/Free-Article-Marketing-Offer.html.

You’ll receive 10 expertly written internet marketing related articles every month, with your first month free of charge. I’m so sure that you’ll like David’s articles that you’ll want to continue receiving his articles month after month. But, if not, no worries.

Also, don’t forget that for a small upgrade fee, you can have those articles re-written by yours truly.

I’ll rewrite your 10 articles and make them unique to use for your own site, blog or to submit to directories.

I promised I would update you all on what my new online endeavor was, so here you go!

In my previous post about David Hurley’s Internet Marketing Article Writing Service, you may have noticed I mentioned that David is an online friend of mine. There is also good reason why I talked about David’s service and am endorsing it.

Not only does David offer a better PLR article service than most other services, but he also offers an additional service as well. David provides an upgraded membership to his article writing service where members can receive rewritten, unique articles each month.

These articles are unique to the articles that regular members receive, thus making them even more valuable. As an upgraded member, you will receive 10 unique PLR articles each and every month for as long as you’re subscribed to the service.

Now, this is where I come in.

As David and I work side-by-side in various online communities, we are familiar with each others talents, services, etc. David runs quite a few websites, as well as handling a lot of offline obligations. Due to this , he needed to find a way to ease his workload.

A couple of months ago David contacted me about possibly doing some work for him. I gave him some prices and discussed the terms of what all would be involved. At the time David decided to continue handling everything himself.

Not long ago I was contacted again, this time getting full confirmation that David wanted to turn over the re-writing part of his article writing service over to me.

This would result in an increase in my workload, but it would also increase my monthly income. Since David already had a few clients that required re-written articles, he needed to be able to get the articles to them in a timely manner. Seeing this as a mutual benefit for both of us, I gladly accepted the offer.

Why did David pick me to head up the service? Well for one, I’m a proofreader and have the credentials and experience to perform the tasks that David was looking for. I’m very honored to be a part of what David is doing for the internet marketing community and look forward to our long-lasting partnership.

When you join his internet marketing articles service, be sure to check out the upgraded membership benefits to get the details. You’ll also be able to read more about me and the re-writing service that I’ll be providing for his PLR articles.

Even if you decide not to upgrade, you’ll still receive 10 articles every month that are limited to a maximum of 100 members. The reason for this is so there’s not a lot of saturation in the market, and this avoids having 100’s, if not more, of the same articles all over the web.

Being a basic member is still very beneficial if you don’t have the time to write your own articles, so I urge you to check out David’s article PLR service and see if it’s right for you.

Writing top quality articles is very time consuming. You may have an idea of what you want to write about, but when it comes to actually writing the articles, it just takes time. You may be asking why you would even have a need to write articles, and the answer is very simple. Articles help you grow your online business.

Articles allow you the advantage of getting your name, business and message in front of thousands of readers and seen as an expert… all for FREE. For internet marketers and online business owners who have multiple tasks to complete every day, writing can be a chore.

Introducing…  David Hurley, expert internet marketer, English professional and article writer. David is the owner of Grasp-The-Nettle.com and provides an article writing PLR service for internet marketers. His articles are internet marketing and online business related.

• Free from grammar, spelling and syntax errors commonly found in other PLR article packages
• Limited membership – Articles exclusively available to only 100 members
• Reasonably priced

David’s service provides you with 10 internet marketing related articles each and every month to use for your own use. Why spend countless hours writing your own articles, when you can have David save you the trouble?

I’m a personal friend of David’s and have worked side by side with him for several years through various forums and internet marketing communities.
