Paula's List of Blogger Salaries...Are you on the list?

Update: For those who continue to enjoy this post, check out my website about 50 real online people making more than $50k per year, and my page where I update my online salary.

UPDATE: Before you read any further or especially link to this old list, please check out "Paula's New List of Blogger Salaries (and Webmasters, Affiliate Marketers, Content Scrapers, Domainers and any other title you can think of) June 2007" by clicking here! ~ Thanks, PAULA NEAL MOONEY

by Paula Neal Mooney

One of my favorite features in Parade magazine is the issue where they grab a random sampling of people and report their incomes -- from the millionaires to the working poor.

Since I'm fascinated with how much money bloggers and webmasters are making nowadays, I've created a similar list -- a random sampling of people making money on the net.

Who's on Paula's List of Blogger and Webmaster Salaries?
I spent hours and hours scouring the internet for the last-reported information about bloggers/webmasters and their revenue. Some are hard-core daily bloggers, some run sites with lots of pageviews but not much written content -- like dating sites.

Be it listed on their own blogs, in articles about them or in the comments section of posts like Google Whores and other places, I tracked down the dollar signs of bloggers/webmasters around the globe.

I even used the Babel Fish Translator to translate info from other languages into English. (A big ol' Queen Liz curtsey to Bonnie Calhoun for this tip.)

For the bean counters...How did Paula calculate the list of blogger salaries?
Whether reported daily, weekly or monthly, I took the income number reported and annualized it to create the below list.

I assumed no growth rate for the annualized salaries, even though some dot com moguls like John Chow are reporting huge growth rates in blogging revenue from March to April 2007.

Since others reported a dip from prior months, I figured assuming a growth rate of 0% would even things out overall. (I did take Intermediate Accounting I and II in college...)

I also took the numbers at face value -- some webmasters list their gross revenue, some net. Others include swag, pay for services, etc. -- all the perks that they wouldn't have gotten if not for blogging.

Who's missing from Paula's List of Blogger and Webmaster Salaries?
You'll also note that some heavy hitters are missing from the list, like John TP, who isn't yet comfortable with revealing his blogging salary.

Also missing is Kevin Rose, whose estimated $60 million, 18-month-long salary touted on the cover of Business Week was called irresponsible journalism by some, so I'm staying away from folks whose salaries are too hard to quantify until they tell us themselves.

I left off the porn bloggers' filthy lucre. I hope.

Lastly, sploggers -- or, "internet entrepreneurs," as he prefers to be called -- like Andre, whom author Ted Demopoulous shared beers and vodka with at the Hotel Taroy bar in Khanty-Mansiysk, Central Siberia, when interviewing for his book, What No One Ever Tells You About Blogging and Podcasting: Real-Life Advice from 101 People Who Successfully Leverage the Power of the Blogosphere, are not on the list.

Sploggers or content scrapers akin to Andre that are quietly making a mint on the net don't go around publishing their income.

Who wants to be a dot com millionaire?
Missing dot com moguls that I'd like to see on future updates of Paula's List of Blogger and Webmaster Salaries are listed in "My Prayer List" section of this Google spreadsheet with all the dirty details of how I arrived at the annualized income on Paula's List of Blogger Salaries.

Here's hoping that the people who don't yet post their income will be included on forthcoming lists, so they can take their rightful place amongst the top earners...

Spot any inaccuracies with my estimated blogging/webmastering salaries?

Did I miss any blogger who posts their income?

By all means, tell me the correct figures! Lead me to their URL!

Are you on it? Wanna be?

Leave me a comment with a link to your post documenting your most-recent monthly blogging income. And title or tag your future income postings with "Paula's List of Blogging Salaries" so I'll know you want to be included.

Reading this list and researching other successful bloggers has inspired me endlessly, like Al's list of the most-read feeds on Self Made Minds.

And of course, good bloggers like John Chow lead the way -- he's one who proves he's not in it just for the money, since he donates all his blogging income to divine pursuits.

Interesting post! It's clear that some people can earn a good living by blogging. One figure I'd like to see added to your chart is how long each blogger has been at it.

I don't publish how much I've earned from blogging (I don't include Associated Content because I've never really been sure if that's a blog) is because I haven't actually earned anything. I have some balances pending, but so far, nothing to cash out.

I hope to change that.

Interesting piece!

Wow, I made the list and I'm actually not at the very end! ;)

Very interesting list though and I can now set goals to overtake those ahead of me on the list!
Paula, you must have spent a lot of time researching this and putting it together. it's wonderfully informative.
I've noticed your page views jumped dramatically from yesterday to today.
Also, I think Darren Rowse's site on ProBlogging is excellent. There's a great deal to learn from his site - and yours.

Thanks, everyone. God is able!

I'm so inspired by these other bloggers and what I learned from researching and creating the list.

Adam - Thanks for hitting me back. I'll update your new and higher salary on the next list.

Mubin - Sorry...I only picked pictures randomly. I'm so glad they fit in the table.

I wanted to get the list finally posted before my Sudafed nighttime pills kicked in. Love 'em!

I'll remember to add your pic on the updated list of "Paula's List of Blogger and Webmaster" salaries.

Hey Paula, Wow this must have taken a lot of work. It's a great resource for judging one's own progress. Thanks for putting it together! I'm already a subscriber so I look forward to updates. Also I hope to have enough income to make the list someday. Right now my income is so low that I would be way too embarrassed to mention it! :-) Rock on!

Hi Paula,

I found your blog through your comment on Single Ma's Fabulous Financials. Great post - I've Dugg it - and I've added you to my favourites so I can keep up with your good advice.

I'm not on the list :( but I'm only a new blog so I'm hoping that will change!

Cheers,

Paris David said…
Thanks Laura and Derek and Don and Kenric and Agent Sully and Rich Minx!

Yeah, I love Single Ma's Financials blog too. I couldn't find her blogging income, so I didn't put her on the list, but hopefully the next one.

I love these face-offs!

And thanks for Digging me everybody:Paula's List of Blogger Salaries...Are you on the list?

This article must have taken forever to write. I must say that i'm inspired by your dedication. Keep up the good work. You'll climb that list soon enough!

This shows there is lots of room to grow the market.

Not that many folks are really making a living at blogging overall.

It also demonstrates that it is not easy. Some of the people on the list are not really known for blogging, but for marketing, or affiliate sales.
Anonymous said…
Remember the old story about the Gold Rush? Most prospectors went broke, but most of the money made was by people selling goods and services to the prospectors. I wonder if web 2.0 is going to turn out the same way?
Any idea how this Blogger salary list would break down between "How To Make $" Blogs and pure content bloggers?
Paris David said…
That's a good idea, Harry.

I can't see this list morphing into many different subcategories:

* Those that are purely webmaster who don't write content

* Those who are salaried and work for sites like Gawker or Weblogs, etc. (and those who are per post)

* And those that are pure content writers...

It could go on and on!

Thanks for mentioning me. Although I don't really own a blog (I should really start one some day soon :P), my earnings come from various other sites where my users create the content.

Thanks for the mention and link Paula, nice list you have going on there (though I am exceedingly surprised to be at the #11 spot).
Martin Lindsey said…
Hey Paula, I have a couple of spin-off questions related to blog earnings.

You and others have mentioned switching your platform to Wordpress. I'm going to do it too. Just haven't decided when.

When I make the switch to a new platform and my actual domain name will that affect my rankings? In other words can my current Technorati rankings transfer to my new domain name or will the new domain have to start from the bottom and earn its own ranking reputation?

For those of you who are already earning income, would changing to your own domain name (for example, separate from your "Blogger.com" site) affect your earnings negatively just because the domain name changed?

Just curious to know while I'm cobbling my master plan together.

That is another great post and I'm glad to Digg it. I can disclose what I've been practicing now for seven years to learn how use the internet to bring glory to God Our Father in Jesus Christ.

It's not about me, but the Desire of Jesus Christ Our Lord, Compassion for Everyone is His Will. Great Day!

Paris David said…
Hey Menthix - I was wondering about your site. That's smart, having other folks create the content! But I love creating my own, too.

Don't worry, Al, you'll probably drop down as more and more of the heavy-earners realize the benefits to posting their income. It's sort of like putting-your-money-where-your-blogging is: People are more willing to follow folks whose methods are tried and true.
Paris David said…
Thanks Jim and Martin for Digging my post!

You're right, the point is to transfer the glory...

And Martin, I was just thinking about that same issue with transferring to Word Press.

I'm holding out for these reasons:

1 - My blogspot domain name is nearly two years old and ranked well

2 - Technorati doesn't yet meld the two links. For example, if I buy BIG6YEAROLD.COM or something, and folks start linking to that new domain name and still link to my old blogspot domain name, Technorati counts those links separately.

3 - There is a woman with a blogspot domain name in Technorati's Top 100 blogs.

4 - I could used a redirect and redirect all this blogger stuff to a dot com, but the Google Pagerank would take a long time to follow.

5 - While there are pro to switching to a dot com: More professional in the eyes of the IT community and everywhere -- plus the fact that some ad places just don't accept blogspot URLs -- I'm just not ready to change yet.

I want to, but I'm waiting till the right time till these issues are resolved.

I'll be more than happy to Digg this one. ;-)
This is false/misleading information. Weblogs, Inc. made $100k a month from Google Adsense--not me personally. Weblogs, Inc. was a professional company with ~100 blogs including Engadget, Autoblog, TVSquad, and Luxist. It was the first large blog NETWORK... you will NOT make this kind of money as an individual on one blog.

Well all I can say is that this is a very encouraging list.

I guess I'm a bit like John TP and uncomfortable disclosing exact earnings. Besides, I'm not even sure if I count because my earnings come from my website, not my blog. At any rate, let's just say that GrownUpGeek.com would come in at around number 20 on your list. Earnings are good enough that the Adsense People were good enough to write about us.
Anonymous said…
The title is inaccurate I think. Several of those on the list make money from non blogging sources. They just happen to have a blog which doesn't generate any income.
Paris David said…
Okay, I'm too excited to sleep right now.

Oh, so that's you, Mr. Grown Up Geek. Okay, I read that. I understand that some folks don't want to reveal their earnings.

Yeah, I should've titled it "Paula's List of Bloggers, Webmasters, Those-Who-Don't-Blog-But-Run-a-Dot-Com-

Jason - Your site amazed me.

Great job with the list. Very informative.

When we talk about Blogger earnings, is it general or only earnings received from blogging? In Markus Frind's case for example, plentyoffish.com probably generates most of this revenue no? And it's a dating service not really a blog.

I was just curious how 'blogger' was defined.

Yeah, I'm going loosely with the blogger/webmaster role.

Some are true bloggers that write content and such, while others are webmasters who run their own domains along with Google ads and such -- like the dating sites, etc.

I was pretty much throwing in any and everybody who posted their revenue.

And thanks for all the links to other folks I missed!

Wow, what a list!
I've only bin blogging 10 weeks and was interested in revenues.
Thanks
Perhaps you would comment on the following?

Website - income - Alexa rank.
Free web layouts - $1.2 million - Alexa rank 4,308.
Weblogs - $1.1 million - Alexa rank 18,120.
Shoemoney - $120k - Alexa rank 1790.
GPS review - $50k - Alexa rank 156,383.
Paula Mooney - $12k - Alexa rank 167,732.
CB Trends - $8k - Alexa rank 29,504.

There is no consistency here what so ever.

Either Alexa is no predictor of revenue (Which it is not desogned to be) or the revenue estimates are poorly reported by the earner.

Or - various bloggers are missing out on potential revenue that could be earned by their higher traffic.

Or, some other reason.
Hi Paula,

Excellent post. I hadn't even heard of the first five. I was surprised to see Problogger way down at 15, also no mention of TechCrunch ? Lots of stuff and ideas to dig into!

Hi again Paula,
A susbidiary comment. No. 46 seems to be wrong somewhere as you have got him as earning $86,000 which should put him higher.

Talia said…
Fascinating post but you appear to have overlooked the celebrity and gossip bloggers who I suspect make big money. People like perez hilton, go fug yourself, tmz etc etc have huge traffic.

What do you think?
Anonymous said…
You know, this is a great list and you did great work on it, but it's not very accurate and you left a LOT of people off. There shouldn't be anyone below six figures on there. I'm not trying to tear you down at all, so please don't think that!

Anyways I was going to say what Talia said....gossip bloggers are making bank. Perez pulls in $30k per ad, and then there's JustJared.com, Pink Is The New Blog, Hollywood Tuna, The Superficial just to name the biggest ones.

Don't forget fashion bloggers either. Especially those in the Glam Network because they pay 20-50c per click.

Last month was actually my best month. I made atleast $1500 not including swag or AC. My blogs aren't all that popular either.

Great work, still!

Paula, it's great to finally have a list of blogging "salaries" so that people who are considering blogging for income can get a reality check on how much you can (or can't) make online. Hopefully you can refresh the list every 3 months or so to add & update the numbers as you find more.

* Rich Minx – Thanks again for your Digg. Hope to add you to my next list.

* Benjamin Jones- Entrepreneur Guide – Yes, it took a few days. And now I’m so grateful to the Lord that the work is paying off. Look at all those backlinks!

*Digital Nomad – Yeah, and I forgot to add this quote I found:

“The term weblog was coined in 1997, shortened to the word blog in 1999, and has been mainstream for at least five years, according to research firm PQ Media LLC. As the number of blogs has exploded to more than 57 million today, the blog ad marketplace has also surged -- from $100,000 in 2002, to an estimated $36.2 million in 2006, according to PQ Media. Blog advertising is expected to grow to $300.4 million in 2010.”

So you’re right, there is lots of room to grow the market. And somebody is collecting all that ad revenue! It’s good to see a breakdown of how it all plays out…

*Harry L – Sometimes I think that, too, about the Gold Rush implications. Especially in the case of people buying $47 (or $97) ebooks left and right, hoping to get rich. At least I feel good promoting the free sites – like Associated Content. I like the ones where we only make money if our referrers make money, and so on. So no harm, no foul…

I believe this list will be the springboard for many, many more detailed lists, broken down by pure content writers, dating site webmaster salaries, social networking site CEO salaries, etc.

* MenthiX – Did you give me your domain name?

* Al Carlton – Yes, again, you’re only #11 for now because these are the only people I found who posted their salary. It’ll be interesting to see what number you are on the next, and then work your way back up…

*Martin Lindsey. – You, along with TD Jakes and Sunny Ellis have inspired more than you know these last couple of days. I just bought my dot com domain name. Look for changes! You’re making me an actionist too!

* Jim.Legington – Thanks Jim, again, for standing in the name of God Our Father in Jesus Christ. You are a blessing to us all.

* Financial Imbalance thanks for calling it interesting. As more and more people give me details regarding their blogging/webmastering income, I pray the list becomes more and more accurate – a catalyst for many lists like this to come.

* Neo – It is an inspiration to see how the top earners do it, so we can follow. The honest ones, that is. Teach a man to fish and he’ll eat for a lifetime…

Good for you and your 250 bucks! I pray it grows and grows as the Lord wills it to...

Don't forget to tag your next income postings with "Paula's List of Blogger Salaries" so I can easily find you for the next update.

Hi Svend-
I can't help but think of that Swedish chef muppet when I type your name...(Yer de smer de smer..Do you remember the muppets?)

Anyhow, I just created the list -- and I grabbed the most current info I could find on blogger/webmaster salaries.

I did due diligence to link to reliable sources, so if you click the "Paula's List Source" next to each entry, you'll find further info on where I got the numbers and what date they were reported.

Since you "recognize some of the people on there but also know that they make more than that currently," PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE lead me to a link (leave it right here in the comments section) that states reliable reporting of their more current income, by all means!

I plan to update this list monthly, so check back for the next one around Juneteeth, or June 19, 2007.

But in case the Spirit moves me to update sooner than that, which I'm feeling He might, subscribe to my blog so you won't miss it!

Hi Paula,

I finally got back to your comment to my comment. Yes Michael Arrington mentioned the $150,000 a month in an article to a journalist - there is a link to it here on my very own blog - http://www.netmonetization.com/2007/03/150000-month-from-blog.html
Regards, Vic
Anonymous said…
Where do you get these numbers? Are these based on only the blogs you know of? Because our company (www.linkworth.com) pays bloggers for placing ads through our network and we have MANY bloggers that would score in the top 10 of your earners.

That might be a cool tool someone can come up with....blog monetization ranking.
Anonymous said…
Hi Paula,

Thank you so much for the kind words, God bless you for your kind heart!

I will be sure to include it in my next income report (if the revenue won't collapse, LOL), did you mean just to link to this post or to the Digg's page, or..? Sorry, I'm just not sure how did you mean to 'tag'. I am a pro as you can tell :D

Take care and keep up the great work!

Liza
Thanks to PayPerPost and ReviewMe, a lot of us are profiting from blogging. In April 2007, I pulled in $1300 just from my blogging. I don't expect I'll hit that amount again for awhile, but it was good to see my blogs monetized.

Thanks for reiterating the TechCrunch salary link. Amazing, huh?

Anonymous-
If you click the "Paula's List Source" above next to each salary, you'll find the source that reported the earnings.

And if you click my Google spreadsheet above, you'll get the details on how I annualized the figures.

So, I just popped over to www.linkworth.com -- how much are the bloggers paid over there?

Do you have a link to the top 10 blogger salaries that would blow these off the list?

Do tell, do tell...

I can put you guys on my next list with a good link if you all publish your blogging earnings and revenue.

Hi Liza -
No, I'd better stay away from Digg for a while. I'm on their blacklist!

But seriously folks, yes dear Liza, just place "Paula's List of Blogger Salaries" in the tag section or "labels" section on your blog post -- or, just title your blog post with "Paula's List of Blogger Salaries - My Income for May 2007" or whatever, and hopefully I'll find it.

Now that you've left me a comment, I'll make sure to dig thru all these blogs that have left a comment so that I can include the clean ones that report their income on my next list.

Matthew the Article Writer -
You're an inspiration. I'd better head back over to PayPerPost. I haven't been there in a while. Check for your name on my next list!

Thanks for the post Paula, was a very inspiring read especially for beginners.

It seems really hard when first starting out. I don't even make $1 a day yet, and I'm spending hours everyday trying to promote my blog and get more traffic. My page rank is 3, but I hardly get any traffic.

I think I'll look into the "no follow" movement, will this help with traffic or only page rank? I really need more traffic rather than PR.
Anonymous said…
Paula! I think you need to delete Kumiko's picture. She deletes her picture on her blog after I send her private message on her MyBlogLog "Does Siryur have any meaning to you, check and review me on www.ronalddaniar.blogspot.com" Yes, you will be surprised when you read my article. I like her blog articles actually. I remember she wrote on her blog about herself that it was really her picture. Well, I did not get any reply from her and she seems she does not want to reveal the truth. If it is really her picture, then I will write my apology to her for writing a mistake. Read the article on http://ronalddaniar.blogspot.com/2007/05/kumiko-suzuki-or-siryur-suzuki.html Peace!
Paris David said…
Hi John -
Yes, even with lots and lots of traffic my Google Adsense account earns only a few bucks some days.

That's why it's so important to diversify and not rely on one source of income thru blogging.

And yes, the DoFollow movement can help with traffic too, because folks searching for DoFollow will find you, and if you join the DoFollow blogroll like this one, those people will come visit your blog and comment, too.

Hey Ronald -
I just visited your blog. Interesting story on Kumiko...now I really want to know who the real Kumiko is!

You've helped me formulate a point for my post today. Thank you.

I just might remove Kumiko's pic next list...

You crack me up so much; you are now officially on my Google Reader.

"The two-hundred dollar blogger" as opposed to the much-touted six-figure bloggers in the industry. I love it!

Anyway, you should seriously add the beer-money earned via "signups for affiliate schemes such as Text Link Ads and Google Adsense" to your next income numbers as well.

Take care, happy days, and I love your witty writing.

Paula
Rhys said…
Well my mum always told me to be realistic. The only way I'm going to get a six figure income from blogging is:

1) Get a job that pays me that much
2) Blog from work.

Nah, beer money is good enough for me :)

W3ATB said…
Paula,

I found out about you from Julie Bonner's blog.

The number you reported for my annual income is low. You only guesstimated my Google AdSense income.

As I said at Julie's blog, it is pretty impolite to ask a woman her age - very bad jujumagumbo - so let's be fairly discrete about Internet income.

Suffice it to say that with my current AdSense income (you used data 22 months old), Kontera income, own ad sales, sales of electronic Ebooks and Checklists, and other miscellaneous income, the number you quoted is pretty far off. :-)

But I sure appreciate being on your list! It is indeed an honor!

Paris David said…
Well blow me over with a drill bit -- THE Tim Carter visited my blog and left a comment! Yay!

I've read about you and feel honored, as well, that you stopped on by.

I'll be sure to reiterate the fact that the above list of Blogger/Webmaster Salaries are estimates based on last know income reported, just like Forbes' list of net worths.

Glad to see you're doing even better now, 22 months later.

And you're right about not chasing money, as you commented on Julie Bonner's blog, in her in-depth piece about you.

I believe that reporting the last known income of bloggers/webmasters is wave of the future.

I love blogging and writing -- it is my God-blessed passion -- and I believe He is the one blessing me with favor and the ideas and fortitude to even create posts like this in the first place.

And you're also right, the money is following it.

This is only the tip of the iceberg...


Take care and happy vlogging,
Paula

John TP finally revealed his Adsense income of $1,218.75 for the month of May 2007, which is an estimated $14,625.00 per year from them, so I just left a comment questioning whether I could assume an annual estimated income range of $15,000 - $35,000 for him in total, assuming his other TribalFusion and stuff.

Pure content bloggers rarely publish their income. I make about $300 a month running google ads in The Knitting Fiend
I never intended that to be a big money making blog, I don't put ads in "hot spots", but I do recover my hosting fees and make enough money to buy some yarn. (With knitting, the revenue varies during the year. I make more in December and less in June!)

Hmmm...do websites count for income as well? I don't make much from the blogs themselves, but my blogs feed my websites which is where I get most of my revenue. Hard to estimate on an annual basis and the sites are all new and growing. I would guess that right now I am making about $600-800 dollars a year from a combination of three websites and three blogs. Note that all but one are less than a month old and I just began promoting that one recently. Am I doing well? I'm happy so far and have great optimism!

This is a brilliant investigative post. But I am a little disappointed. I came here from Problogger expecting to see a list of bloggers with six figure income. As someone commented earlier it shows that the rush for blogging as a living is not healthy. John chow is right, 99% of the bloggers can't earn more than 100$ a month. A more realistic approach would be to consider blogging as a part time job to earn a few hundred extra apart from your day job. And a few hundred dollars a month is all that even a very dedicated blogger is likely to earn from blogging and thats what I am going to do.

Paula, great work. Hope I can make it to the list in a few months. :)

You have quite a talent on getting those informations.

how much are you making right now every month?
Paris David said…
That's a good question, Paul.

I'm thinking of posting my income again at the end of June 2008 -- if you follow the blog posts linked to at the top of my blog under the "how to make money online" link, you'll see more recent figures than this list.

But I still haven't posed income since December 2007, I believe. Or November 2007.

I know other people on these lists are making more now, too.

Check back for updates in July 2008 -- I pray...

I have read your article and a couple of those you listed and I am pretty much sure that if you follow them right,
There are lots of people who get on the internet hoping that they will be able to learn how to make money online fast, but most usually without a clue as to where to start.

I have earned over $1000 just from Adsense alone this year alone. I wonder why I am not on your list.

It's amazing that this post still gets so much traffic.

@ Jobexpert and Newsfeeder - As you can see on my new website about people making money online, I make a lot of money by writing for Examiner.com and through Google Adsense and Amazon Associates affiliate/referral program.

Go on over there and subscribe to get email updates -- because I'm trying some new stuff and researching how people are making more money online than me, and I will update people on how much my income grows by trying the new methods.

Thanks for reading,
Paula
It is really difficult for average guys to make money from blogging.
Just for fun, not for money, maybe this is a right attitude to blogging.

That's a great list, although a little old at this stage. I see a few names on that list who have gone on to blow past what they were making here.

I've recently posted a short listing of bloggers who list out their income reports on my site. You might find the list helpful or useful. The post is here: Encouragement Through Income Reports.

I'm not on your list here, but one day I hope to be worthy of the list. Thanks for the encouragement and information.

Paula's New List of Blogger Salaries (and Webmasters, Affiliate Marketers, Content Scrapers, Domainers and any other title you can think of) June 2007

FIND OUT HOW MUCH BLOGGERS REALLY MAKE ONLINE -- CHECK OUT THIS NEW WEBSITE ABOUT MONEY-MAKING ONLINE CALLED 50 OVER $50K... by Paula Neal Mooney The time has come. The time is now. Paula N. Mooney will you please publish that list now?! (Yes, I fancy Dr. Seuss' iambic pentameter.) My WebMaster blest me with a viral post called "Paula's List of Blogger Salaries," and the response was so wonderful, here lies an update. It's bigger and better than ever before with more pics, and double the amount of bloggers, webmasters, domainers, affiliate marketers (or a smidgen of some or all of those titles) and their reported incomes. How Much Do You Make? Money is funny. The abundance of it, the lack of it, the subject of cash in general gets attention. While some invoke their choice not to post their online income nor discuss it at all, I've always been of the Suze Orman mindset ever since I read her first book. Suze encourages people to talk ab

UPDATE: PLEASE CLICK THIS LINK TO DIGG THIS STORY AND TELL DIGG TO PLAY FAIR... by Paula Neal Mooney Many of us know the power of Digg.com, dreamed up by Kevin Rose, who touted it as a "user driven" site that says it allows the general public to determine the stories they want to see make it to the front page by voting for interesting articles they find across the web. The more votes the public gives an article, the better chance it should have to make it to the front page. Theoretically... The power of Digg's front page Digg.com -- according to Alexa -- is now more popular than The New York Times. Getting one of your articles or blog posts to the front page of Digg.com will get your website seen by plenty of eyes. John Chow experienced a one-day traffic record of 55,856 page views when one of his posts hit the front page of Digg.
