Monthly Online Income Report – These Bloggers Make Thousands!

One of the top blog posts I look forward to each month from other bloggers is their income reports. However they earn a living, I am always extremely excited to read about their business.

I love seeing how people are earning money, how much they’re making, what new things they’re trying, and more.

Reading them each month is very motivating.

As you know, every month I publish an online income report, which shows how I earn over $50,000 a month through my blog. I publish these for many reasons.

Before I started blogging, I knew nothing about side hustling and making money online. I didn’t think side hustles were worth the time, and I thought the only way to really increase your income was through your day job by raises and promotions. If it weren’t for others publishing their income reports each month, I don’t know if I would have ever attempted side hustling.

I want to help others see the positives in side hustling and how it can change your life. After all, it allowed me to pay off my student loans in just 7 months, quit my job, be my own boss, travel full-time and more. Now, I’m happier than ever!

I also like to publish my monthly income reports because it is a great way for me to reflect on the previous month, learn from any mistakes I may have made, and to see what areas I need to start working harder in.

I believe these reasons are why a lot of other bloggers choose to share their monthly earnings as well. It’s a great motivator, and it shows that you can actually make money doing something you enjoy.
