   Nice income, I figured that they are all from free traffic and from this site. You are one of the few that actually published your real internet income. Thanks buddy!

   @William,

   I know a few others that post their income, but not many do. My premise is to be upfront and honest with people. It may not be the most glamorous looking income report, but it shows that it’s possible.

   I don’t spend much time promoting my site, so if I can make a little extra income on the internet, then anyone can. Eventually I’ll be doing this full-time (that’s my goal anyway).

   Thanks for stopping by and contributing. Hope to see you here more often.

   @Alan Mater, I think most that don’t – don’t because they know by now that the majority of readers will think them full of …. anyway, unless they provide and outrageous amount of detail and “proof”, which few are prone to do.

   A simple screen shot or two will no longer pass as legit.

   @Dennis Edell, Agreed. I’d say it’s the slimy, dishonest marketers that have ruined it and made it much more tougher for us honest marketers.

   @Alan Mater, The other thing is, many smaller blogs look real bad doing it.

   I can’t count how many blogs do this, for example…..

   Write up a nifty article about scoring big with adsense; 3 weeks later posting adsense earnings of $3.49…..excuuuse me?

   It’s toughest for me when I know they don’t even realize it. I sit facing a contact form for an hour figuring out what to say or even if I should. lol

   @Dennis Edell,

   LOL… I would say to just not say anything and let them keep making themselves look dumb for doing it. BUT, that’s probably not the nice thing to do.

   @Alan Mater, Ouch! LOL

   Nah, if I know it’s merely beginner ignorance, I’d rather try to turn them around.

   @Dennis Edell,

   Well, hopefully they’re not stuck in their ways. We’ll call it beginners ignorance.

   I was only joking earlier… anything to help a fellow blogger out is admirable.
