Something new for 2012
01-03-12I’m not normally one for making New Year’s resolutions, partly because I think folk rarely achieve them and partly because if something is important it shouldn’t need to be influenced by a new set of numbers on your calendar.
Having said that, I’ve decided to be a bit more transparent in 2012 and publish some general goals:
- Blog regularly and grow a subscriber list of over 1000 users
In actual fact, I plan to start a new blog and leave this one for more personal/opinion led posts. More info on the new blog coming soon but it will be strictly SEO/affiliate oriented. - Increase my Twitter follower count to 4000+
- Push my passive income above £3000/mo
Some time ago I wrote a post about how I wanted to pay my mortgage with my affiliate earnings. Well, I’m pleased to report that I’m currently earning around £1000/mo so it is mission accomplished in that sense (although I’ve learnt there’s no such thing as 100% ‘passive’). The one thing I didn’t do was document the process which I regret now. I plan to change that for the next £2k/mo. - Build and launch a web app
This one goes hand in hand with point 3 but I have several ideas for web apps that could make good money. I want to have one live in at least a minimum viable product format by January 2013 - Lose weight and increase fitness levels
Now, I’m no fatty by any stretch of the imagination but I’ve developed a bit of a beer belly over the last 12 months. I want to lose a stone (down from 12 to 11) and be regularly running 5-8k (couple of times a week). The bigger pitcure goal is to run a marathon in 2013, but it’s also about getting motivated physically and mentally.
So that’s it, not a huge list but one I think I can certainly make a dent in.

07-27-09
You hear about people making obscene amounts of money online all day long on the web these days, the Shoemoney’s and the John Chow’s of this world seem to effortlessly rake in the cash selling other peoples wares. But is it really that easy to become a super affiliate?
I aim to find out.
