You may have noticed the ad bar in my blog and wondered why the heck it was there. Well, it's been there since I started my job search in Austin and I was seriously considering being a "professional blogger".
Pretty much all the job search websites I browsed would list testimonials of how some schlub started making thousands of dollars each month just by blogging. At first I scoffed at the idea that someone could make a living from blogging, but as I got more desperate, I began researching into the feasibility of being a blogger. I saw how many mainstream bloggers all used Google's adsense (and made bank) so I decided to give it a try.
Thankfully, I ended up getting a job within a week of implementing adsense because with my earnings thus far, I wouldn't have enough to buy a value meal. Looking back, it's pretty funny what kind of schemes I came up with to get money. I figure I'll have this blog for a couple years, so I'm going to keep the program running. It's based on people checking out the ads so feel free if you're so inclined. If not, no biggy.
