This May 2017 Income Report marks my fourth income report on the blog. This is all the income I earned in May, I may not have actually been paid yet for this work. This also does not factor in taxes or expenses.

How I Earn My Income

I primarily earn money through freelance writing, affiliate marketing, driving for Lyft, and a few other hustles here and there.

If you want to get started freelance writing, I highly recommend Gina Horkey’s 30 Days or Less to Freelance Writing Success. I helped me go from novice to full-time freelance writer.

I’m still working to build my affiliate marketing income, but I do only share tools and resource I have used myself and find helpful. If you want to get started with affiliate marketing, I’d recommend Michelle of Making Sense of Cent’s Making Sense of Affiliate Marketing Course.

Wanting to get started on Lyft? You can read my post on becoming a Lyft driver.
