WAHMs, Make Money Through Blogging
March 22nd, 2010
Work & Projects
A friend once said that she sees me as a successful WAHM. I know it’s a very honest remark, but I’m not sure if I really am categorically successful as a work-at-home mom. If I would compare my present earnings to my previous salary as knowledge worker in a software company, I’d probably be downgraded to the level of a poor church mouse. Then again, working from home and being self-employed is a different banana. And it has its own merits, too. While I no longer enjoy first-rate health packages, bonuses, lots of free food and more bonuses, at least I get to spend valuable time with my husband and daughter. This precious time is something that I cannot trade at this point. I know I’d rather do away with a few luxuries than miss out on the many firsts.
So, yea, earning income has dropped to #3 on my priority list (first is family, second is home-keeping). The bulk of my earnings come from my writing and editing projects; the rest is a potluck of meager income brought by a few affiliate sales, advertising, and paid reviews.
If you’re a stay-at-home mom who wants to earn extra income, I recommend doing paid reviews. Anyone who owns a blog can write a review and get paid for it. Advertisers are more than happy to buy blog links if your blog or website has good standing. I’ve received several offers for my other niche blogs and have earned a few dollars from these clients. Just remember not to let all those paid reviews take over your blog. Only accept offers that suit your niche, and then tailor the assigned keywords to your own personal experiences. This makes blogging more fun and profitable.
I hope to be able to share more income opportunities for moms in my future posts. If you have something to share, feel free to leave a comment.

I signed up with LinkfromBlog and earned something already. I agree with you, we should not let these paid posts take over our blog, the reason why I declined some invitations.
In time, I hope to be like you, put earning to a lower priority and enjoy more of the precious time spent with family.
