Could use some advice.

[Gydian]

Well, I'm contemplating heading back out into the working world, but on a lesser scale. I'd like to bump my income up by about $1200-$1600/month that's continuously recurring and somewhat stable instead of this completely random and unstable amount of money that comes in monthly. (Gotta love getting paid on time, huh? -_-)

My sites are doing pretty good, and I've been doing some project management and freelancing for a company here based outta Toronto that's let me work remotely which is also good. I've also got a couple new projects that're looking to release likely this month which is also good.

So yeah. Target is to increase income by a steady $1200 - $1600/month that pays like clockwork. Any suggestions? I'd rather continue doing my work and such online and not have to head into an office or a store or whatever. So, in this scenario, what would you do to up your income by another $1200/month?

Hey Gydian,

what sort of income are you earning at the moment. (I know you say its somtimes random but on average?).

Hi Gydian,

Are you any good at writing? If so you can probably find a couple of people willing to pay for monthly news, and that's a recurring and stable income for you.

I'm looking for someone to write casino news for example.

My income at the moment currently jumps between $1800 and $5200. The higher end usually coming between June and September (due to my somewhat seasonal business) and the lower between November and February.

Basically, I'm just looking for something that can level even my lowest months out to around $3000/mo without touching the bank account for the higher months throughout the year. Yeah, it can likely be seen as being greedy or whatever, but truthfully, with the baby coming very soon, I'm just looking for some added stability.

My writing is alright. I've had a few people buy articles off me over the past year and they seemed pleased, so I'm going to assume that my writing isn't horrible. I can also code in xhtml/CSS and PHP/SQL. Other than that, my entire career in the online world has revolved around project management, hosting, and a good chunk of marketing (I owned 2 ad networks at one point in time that did fairly well in the RPG/MMO genre)

I don't think thats being greedy at all. With a baby on the way your priority shifts. What stops you from building on what you have already? You obviously have experience building successful sites, why not rinse and repeat?

I think writing would be the easiest solution as well. Five articles a day will only burn around 2-4 hours daily and will bring in $3k/month (at $20/each). Even just doing it 3 days/week would bring in an extra $1,200. If your writing is decent you could just start a thread and update it with the latest topics and they'd sell easily I'm sure. This is a much better option than accepting orders because its so easy to get behind.
