This post will mark my 251st consecutive day of
publishing on Penguinate.com. For the last 8+ months, I have posted at least
one article. I didn’t take any weekends off, and some days I posted more than
one article. All of that work, plus what came from the beginning of November 2018,
has created less than $2 worth of revenue, and August was the worst month for
income, even though views were the third highest. So, I must be doing something
wrong.
With this information, I have decided that I probably need to step back from publishing so much on Penguinate.com and start concentrating on the places where I can bring in more money. To that end, a lot more of what I publish here will be accessible by Penguinators (those who are a part of my wifes and my Patreon campaign) only. Not everything, just much of it.
Obviously, I’m not going to try to keep my streak alive. I
may or may not publish anything tomorrow. Those 251 articles represent enough
material to make a book if it had been written as such. So, I urge you to join my
wife’s and my Patreon to help me continue writing and to read all the great
content you get here. No matter what level you join at, you’ll have access to
everything on Penguinate.com.
If you have a better idea of how to overcome this
discrepancy in work versus pay, let me know. Leave your content. Otherwise,
thanks so much for reading and through that supporting our creative endeavors.
