I have to tell you, I was struggling at the start of this week.

I’ve been pumping out pages for this site for about 2 months now, and while I’m starting to get into the swing of publishing content, I’m also conscious that things aren’t moving very fast.

I knew it would take time.

I knew it would be hard work.

But the results (while really encouraging) have also been minimal. Particularly on the revenue front.

Again — I knew this before I started. But this week it hit me, and I was feeling rather discouraged.

Working it out, I’m less than 10% of the way through my target number of evergreen guides. And the whole business plan relies on me making little bits of money from many guides, not the other way around.

Then, in my hour of need, someone bought a phone through the site.

It was a small action. It wasn’t enough money to pay for a year of hosting, even.

But it showed me that the idea is sound. Small amounts of revenue over plenty of pages.

And so, I am kicking on. I still have hundreds of guides to write, after all.
