Income Report Recap for The Last Few Months
It’s been a while since I wrote an income report (I haven’t updated since June), and I have received a few emails on an update so here we are. I decided to write an income report recap.
You’ll have to overlook my lack of consistency. Running The Bewitchin’ Kitchen, co-running Click Start Club (and the Click Start Club Build a Blog Facebook Group – feel free to join), and now Lazy Girls Eat Healthy, is a lot of work. I had to delegate and let a few things go, the income reports being one of them.
In the future, I will do my best to update but I may have to skip a month or two here and there (especially with a baby on the way).

Blog services that I’ve paid for and that I couldn’t live without or have made a difference:
Tailwind, Buffer, Dominate The Search Engines with Webmaster Tools, Food Blogger Pro, Tasty Pins, ConvertKit, Nutrifox.
Here’s a quick recap of what happened during the months between June and February.

My plan for 2018
I don’t have a crazy plan for 2018, I actually plan on doing less. Which means I’ll be making less money.
- With a baby due in June, I’m okay with that. I need to take care of me during the pregnancy and put myself first after she arrives.
- I’ve been re-evaluating my expenses, and tracking to see what services I hire out are worth the investment. There have been cuts.
- I begin school in the fall (Culinary Nutrition), which means my Q4 will have to take the back seat, which will mean fewer earnings as well.
- Focusing on quality content, not quantity.
- Putting more effort into affiliate marketing within my posts.
- Updating old posts with new photos, fixing SEO, and implementing the Tasty Pins plugin.
- Work on the Lazy Girls Eat Healthy Beta Test Group and launch the membership in the fall.
- Update Click Start Club Editing in Photoshop and Video Master School.
