Time to share the latest news on the $100 challenge: Year 3 *! No new participants added to our $100 Challenge: Year 3 participants list. But, it was good to hear from one of our participants, Katelyn, who said that her project is already working its way towards its first $100. Woohoo! Well done and thanks for the update, Katelyn. Looking forward to more.
Now, here’s my own update on my $100 challenge projects (based on April ’09 events).
Project A Update: A long-time blog that needs to increase income after major shifts. Initial target is $100 a month, working towards $100 a week.
It’s quite exciting to see this project’s income continue to climb. This month, it’s due to a mix of Adsense, direct advertising (both banners and text), and affiliate marketing. Total for the month was $188.33.
So again, the tally for this site: Month 1 was $66, Month 2 was $147.80. Month 3 was $154.06. Month 4 was $188.33 So, there you go. Consistently reaching a minimum of $100 a month for three months now. It’s still a way to go before we get to $100/week. We’ll see how long it will take to get there.
Project B Update: Bringing a Brand new site to make its first $100
Suddenly, there’s an interesting twist to this project. Even though I haven’t been working on it, it seems to have started making money via Adsense. To give you a background, this is the income tally for the site so far: Month 1: Non-existent site. Month 2: $0.00. Month 3: $0.21. Month 4: $2.27.
So, even though I haven’t updated the site since I set it up way back in February, it looks like it’s beginning to get some income. Definitely a good incentive to start working on it again, right?
Project C Update: To see how long it will take for a relatively new online venture to make its first $100.
Thankfully, I can now report that this project took approximately three months to meet its $100 goal. And, considering that I didn’t really spend that much time on it, I thought that it’s actually not a bad way to earn some extra cash. In fact, I hope to continue working on it even though I’ve reached this project’s target, as I’m seeing other benefits apart from the obvious monetary rewards.
In any case, as a round-up, here’s the income tally for this project: Month 1: Not yet officially started. Month 2: $20.00. Month 3: $51.30. Month 4: $30.52. Total of $101.82!

That was pretty good. It is very aspiring to new Internet markets who are new to the making money online biz…it seems the longer you build your blog up, the more money you make each month. That was interesting.
