Keyword Crash Course Review--Month 4

I'm going to try and keep this post short because one of my sites is #10 in Scroogle for its main keyword and I've got some work to do before the Red Wings come on! But I wanted to make sure I updated with a new post before we got too far into June.

Right now I've been a member of the Keyword Crash Course for almost 4 months. As Court likes to say, things are starting to get "interesting." It's still hard for me to just work on one or two sites at a time but I think it's the best way to stay productive.

It's pretty obvious to me that my success so far is no accident. I've been working hard but the only way I've been able to stay on track is with the help and support I get from being a member of the Keyword Crash Course. I only wish this program existed two years ago when I first started trying to build a passive online income. I would be soooo way ahead of the game!

Since beginning the program I've earned $141.13 in Adsense income and $44.22 from Amazon's affiliate program. This doesn't include any income I've earned from sites I've built outside the program. But to be honest, those websites aren't earning much of anything anyway. Ironically, the one blog I built for the Niche Blogger went down from a PR1 to a PR0 during the last update. Granted, I haven't been working on that site at all for the past 3-4 months, but it just put the nail in the coffin for me as far as the Niche Blogger goes.

On the other hand, my KCC sites did well. One is a PR3, the nine others are a smattering of PR2s and PR1s. I think only one managed to stay a PR0. Not bad for a set of sites that are only 3 months old.
