Good morning<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A post more than once a year. It’s slowing getting back. In the last week I have been trying to build out some back end processes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First off, Google AdSense has been a bit of a pain in the last week. Moving between Canada the USA a few times, you open\/ create accounts in which ever country you’re in at the time. Well, turns out you can’t easily switch AdSense countries. I had to close my old account and open a new account in Canada. Normally they would expect you to use a new email address, but I found a trick on YouTube, by linking your YouTube to a new AdSense account, you can continue to use the same email address. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, as you will see in this post, I joined an affiliate network. I was even approved by LEGO<\/a> to show their ads\/ links. So, that’s exciting. Give it a click, and every little bit helps increase my available time by tossing me a few cents here and there. That almighty dollar motivation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, I joined the Amazon affiliate network. If you look to your right, you should see Amazon selling stuff. Again, they toss me a few cents per click. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both processes were pretty straight forward. Give them your site address, your email, and how to be paid, and boom, in about 24 hours everything was working. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that all the business stuff is out of the way. The big news. I ordered a Canon EOS M50 with a few lens. It’s being shipped. I wish they had it available in store, as I really want to be playing with it and starting LEGO<\/a> build videos on YouTube. <\/p>\n\n\n

<\/p>\n

I was also picked up by Microsoft, so excited about that.

I think that’s where I’m going to sign off for the day, but please click the links so we can see how everything works.<\/p>\n

Cheers,<\/p>\n
