It’s been slightly more than four months since I have updated this blog. And while that is far too long, personal circumstances have had me away from a lot of my online writing. Fortunately, it was nothing so serious that it hasn’t passed and now I am back with a vengeance.
I the last four months, I have written less than 25 pieces total. That includes all the sites for which I write. I took a hardcore serious break. But I still made money. That’s the power of residual income. Even when life happens, you still earn.
Unlike traditional freelance writing, writing online for residual income pays you long after the work has been completed and turned in. And to be perfectly honest, if I had gone through the last four months without my residual income coming in, our bank account and bills would have been in serious jeopardy.
Instead, my content kept earning. People still read my articles, and they still bought with my affiliate links.
While this post doesn’t explain much beyond my absence, it does speak to how important it is to build up a bank of content on the web. It’s crucial for instances like mine. Kind of like a “short-term disability” program for online writers. When something happens, you still get paid.
