How are your Examiner.com pageviews?

This post has been overdue -- in my brain and heart for a little while, but I've been waiting to see if things would turn around.

Ever since the Google Panda-Content Farms-Farmer update shook up the online world, I've been reading from a lot of different perspectives how it's affecting some folks.

I can't necessarily get a good estimation of how much the Google update has affected my Examiner.com pageviews because I haven't been writing as much for the site as I used to back when it was so easy to get views.

To tell you the truth, it's frustrating when I see those "your piece wasn't deemed Google News-worthy" emails from them that we didn't used to get.

Still grateful for channels where I see I've pulled in over 1,500 views bringing more than 10 bucks for a previous day where I might not have even logged onto Examiner.

And just like in the past, God is using one closing door to open better ones -- like when I temporarily lost ranking on this blog for my name back when I didn't totally understand Google bombing, and how linking to the same site with the same anchor text repeatedly was a no-no in Google's eyes.

That forced me to go out and figure out how to make my own dot com back in 2007, and I've been going forward ever since.

On to bigger and better...

I still love writing on Examiner.com for the ease of some quick eyeballs -- especially on days when the Google News hits and a big story happens and I get in there.

But most of March has found me updating my own sites, trying out some of the tricks I've learned from studying some of my 50over50k people and getting inspired by Amanada Hocking, the Kindle millionaire writer.

I spent most of the day redesigning PaulaNealMooney.com with the Thesis theme I love, and setting up niche sites all about Spanx, Spanx and more Spanx.

But lots of people are still making it into Google News for Examiner.com articles every day, so it may still end up being a very profitable stream of income along with all my others.

And let's not even mention how much my Droid 2 has increased my productivity, with its Droid Blogger app and Android for Wordpress app allowing me to blog laid out in bed on my back when my my laptop is shut!

I've got a feeling 2011 is going to break all kinds of good records...

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-reporte

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.
