    Adnan,
    When I started gathering links for this post your competition was still going. Sorry I didn’t update that before it was posted.

    Thanks everyone for visiting and for leaving your comments.

    I read the article about freelance blogging… I feel like you have to be extremely established for that to make any kind of financial sense. It’s a great idea once you make it to that point, though. I’m new to blogging right now, but maybe someday I’ll be able to make some money from it… Thanks for these links!

    Aaron, I was a little surprised myself at the possibility of making money from freelancing. I do some paid writing for a major blog, and I was offered the position shortly after starting my own blog. No, I don’t make a living doing it, but it is nice to make some money each week and supplement other income that way. Thanks for you feedback!
