Minimum wage no longer sounds too bad. I never thought about it like this before. I write for Associated Content. I try to submit at least 7 articles a day. My average is between $6-$8 an article. I am usually toward $7. It takes me about 15 minutes a piece. You have to keep in mind that this might sound like a lot but you get burned out real quick and you only make this in one day. So that much an hour, sounds like a lot but, take that and multiply it by five days a week, no longer sounds like a full paycheck does it? That is only around $245 a week. I am high maitenance and could not live off of this amount.

cool, can’t wait to read them. john chow takes a good approach too, where he chooses the optimal programs in order to maximize dollars returned (cut out the fat!)

I agree that writing for AC is not blogging, but I think you got the jest of my post. I am more focused on what an activity brings you in dollars per hour along with residual income.

If you are not creating something that can bring you money while you are not working then you are just doing a job. Not that their is anything wrong with that.

I am going to follow up this post with specific ‘traps’ that those looking to ‘make money online’ tend to fall into.

great post! although i just want to clarify that technically, writing for AC isn’t blogging, but i’m just being nit-picky i haven’t spent any time monetizing my blog yet, but i have spent a lot of time taking care of it and trying to create a quality site. i hope to one day make minimum wage blogging. and hopefully pass that stage up quick style and mogul it up…
