Progress, Activities and Achievements Report For October
Sunday, 01 November 2009
Author: Bruce Mind

This is my first report on Mind2Earn and probably I should explain why am I writing it and who should find my report useful. Reports will evaluate my work done and will contain some "diary" stuff. Reports will be my self-control instrument. You will see mya progress and hopefully you will make even harder pressure than I make to myself to achieve more.
Because I'm pretty new at IM (internet marketing) I don't want to jump into advising you how to earn online yet. Later (time will show when) I'll share some things that worked or didn't work for me. I'm doing many things for you to be able to track my progress. You'll see things that I succeeded at or not on my progress reports thus you will know what I can really show you.
So here are the list and short descriptions of things I've done and achieved in October.
- My online income. In September I made 20 dollars online. In October I made twice as much - $40. Most of them got to my accounts in the last days of the month so I guess I'll make much more next month. 15 bucks I made from one site getting around 100 visitors a day (most of it with Google Adsense). I made 25 dollars on the other site getting only 15 visitors a day (with Amazon only)! That's great, because since yesterday, after jumping some positions up in Google I receive at least twice more visitors.
- I tried Google Adwords (advertising system). I got $100 coupon to try it and spent 25 dollars out of that sum and didn't make any sales. Probably I had to spend more to see results. Maybe I hadn't prepared my site enough though I start seeing sales from Google search arrived customers. I'll have to play around with it a bit more to tell anything useful...
- My article was approved by Ezine Articles. As you probably guessed I'm trying article marketing as well. About month ago I got my article declined because of multiple violations and grammar mistakes. Two days ago my first article was accepted. I think it's quite an achievement having in mind Ezine Articles are picky and I'm not a native English speaker. My rankings of few keywords in Google jumped few positions up shortly after article approval. Can't believe Ezine influenced rankings so much. Maybe it's just a coincidence? Future will show...
I had an operation. I have some inherited problems with my skin which appear time to time. Operation went pretty humorously because while surgeon was cutting my head skin we (surgeon and I) were having a friendly chat with anecdotes... What a positive attitude! Don't want to go too deep into details but now I have a two-cm-long scar and a nice ribbon on the top of my head as you can see in the picture :).
- My brother shot a shocking video with his cell phone. He filmed a bus driver multitasking while driving! I'll publish the video as soon as I prepare it!
- I continue having volatile mindset about my building engineer studies. I do study responsibly but I definitely don't feel happy about my profession. I'm more into internet. Future will show what I will do about it...
- Inspired by success with my second site I researched a new niche and will start building website and writing content for it soon.
- Since beginning of my blog I made three posts regarding mindset:
I confess, I could have done much more but I procrastinated too much... I should deal with procrastination first...
Any questions or suggestions?

My 21 birthday was a turnaround of my life. I stopped dreaming and started acting. I started learning and following my dreams. And why am I here?

I think you have done very good job! Very productive. But if you want to become more productive, later next week I'll be preparing an article about how to deal with procrastination.
Keep up with good work!
