Just a quick update on what’s happening in my life right now. If you didn’t know I have taken a break from travelling for the past few months and have been at home in England. But now it’s time to say syonara. Sometime I will write a related post about my local city and it’s history (not a common place to people to visit – I’ve never seen it on another travel blog so far), however this will tie in with another attempt at making some money online later on (which involves iPhones).
Anyway, the title gives away the next period in my ‘travel life’. I am going to Japan… for a year. Read the rest! \(^u^)/ →

30 Days Over
I have now spent 30 days writing articles for hubpages in an effort to build a online passive income stream. Of course this is an experiment that won’t show if it works until a year or so into it (whether it generated money straight away or takes a few months). So I will probably report on it occasionally/as demand wants it.
The challenge was to complete 100 ‘hubs’ (a written article of high quality) and publish to the hubpages.com website within a 30 day time limit. I aimed for 700 words per hub, although not essential, it was a reasonable guideline to aim for.
Hubpages.com puts adverts in place and gives 60% of the income from the advertisers to those who wrote the respective article that the advert was placed on and a reader clicked on. So say an advertiser is paying $1 per every click, I would receive 60c from it and hubpages took 40c of that for their own needs.
Anyhow… the results… Read the rest! \(^u^)/ →

Because I didn’t want to clog up this website with make money online posts (which are just a load of statistics that excite the mathematically minded more than anyone else), I’ve put week 2 and week 3 of my hubpages challenge into one post. I will do week 4+ the final days in a post together too. Here are stats on what I’ve achieved on week 2:

21 Days down, 9 to go.
Hubs completed: 12
Words written: 7603
Google Adsense income: £0.80
Amazon.com income: $0

One thing I have in my (in need of updating) about page explaining what this website is about, is how I raise money whilst I travel (not to boast but to help others do similar). I’ve generally ignored this part and not written much about it previously, but 3 weeks ago AdventureRob.com brought me in just over US$1000 in earnings. This was unexpected and delightfully received, as you can imagine! I now have the proof and incentive that making money online is very much possible, so I intend to make some more!
