My First Dollar From freewheelings.com

By Brandon Edward

It has long been a tradition that local businesses and start ups frame their very first dollar and post it on the wall.  I say why not maintain that tradition even though both the wall and, actually the dollar are both virtual.  Here is a screenshot of the very first dollar (thankfully adjusted for inflation) made by freewheelings.com by means of Google AdSense.  Let it forever linger amongst these posts and pages for all to see.  This blog is my own journey to create a life that doesn’t deny the dollar, but makes it one’s own.  A dollar made in the freedom of your own accord, living your life on your own terms is infinitely more valuable than a million dollars you made following someone else’s rules.  I adhere to this tradition as so many others in the hopes that if this site cannot demonstrate a meaningful convergence of a respect for the past and an embrace of the future, my life itself will.  Thank you to everyone who is interested in my journey and is making this site a success.

    Does this mean that if everybody goes crazy clicking the ads you may get another $2.31 ? Where are those script kitties when you need one?

      Yes, but google has very sophisticated algorithms to detect fraud so it’s probably not the best idea. I’ve been working hard on search engine optimization and driving organic traffic to my site. Surprisingly, the traffic I generate from search engines seems to account for the vast majority of my ad clicks.

    Not bad article, but I really miss that you didn’t express your opinion, but ok you just have different approach

      Hey, thanks for stopping by. I am as interested in your comment as the praise. I spend about half the time on this site expressing my opinions, the other half merely reporting what I see. I thought of this post more as a statement than an opinion, a way to virtually frame my first dollar, more of an event, more of a thank you to the people out there that follow my journey. May I ask you as a visitor what it is exactly that you might like my opinion on and maybe I can address it more clearly? Thanks again for checking out my site. Kind Regards,
