It was $450 the first year and $200 a year after that. In looking at the program some are doing well, while the vast majority are just making Income School rich. I learned a lot and would say I got about $200 worth. Off loading onto a newsletter is smart and has been talked about for years. I think I might have 54 videos and really only get a handful of traffic. I think I might have 1,300 subscribers. Not sure what's the issues. I have a few ideas on what is going on. I make a blog post for every video mostly because my videos contain code so by making a blog post for those who want to do whatever I am teach, so they can just cut and past. For now I am going to stay the course. I think once I get into the HTML/CSS/JavaScript/Ajax/PHP/MySQL I might be able to get monetized. For now I am going to stay focused on that. Always enjoy your thoughts!! - Keith >> --------------------------------------------------- >> PLUG-discuss mailing list: PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org >> To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: >> https://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list: PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > https://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list: PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: https://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
