My own most popular site: Work From Home Ideas (a South African site)

Our site Terry and Tony in South Africa also links to all of our over 20 sites or blogs.

I'm a work from home freelancer who also enjoys earning monthly passive income mostly through using Google Adsense. My Adsense earnings for the month of April 2012 were about $300. Although some of this comes from HubPages, these earnings come mostly from my own sites.

May 2012 marks my 22nd month on HubPages. Learn more about HubPages.

I'm not yet one of the HubPages Success Stories but maybe one day I will be.

Hi! I'm South African and together with my boyfriend Tony, I work from home in East London, South Africa as a freelance web designer or website marketer. This work includes html brochure website design, WordPress custom design, WordPress set-up, WordPress customization, domain registration, hosting, keyword research, Search Engine Optimization, writing, image-editing and more. Learn more about Tony and I - and about our services - on Terry and Tony in South Africa 

Due to doing freelance work for a Personal Injury Lawyer in Florida since late 2009, Tony and I have also started a site called Lawyer Marketing Freelancers.

I enjoy SEO. I'm more on the natural SEO side of the natural SEO vs PPC debate. See some examples of the natural (organic) Google page 1 search results we've managed to obtain for clients or for our own sites, 

We are also online writers/bloggers, doing a bit of photography too. Although we sometimes take photos for accommodation establishments when we design their websites, we also enjoy taking photos in and around my hometown East London, South Africa.

Tony, then 50, took my HubPages profile photo on my 41st birthday in May 2010.

I'm the proud mom of two boys, who are 13 and 14 (2012).  I enjoy parenting and supporting my boys with their school activities. 

Tony and I have a few WordPress (.org) sites (self-hosted; not wordpress.com)

We recently (late October 2011) started another WordPress site called After Matric to hopefully assist matriculants in South Africa with what to do after matric, especially when they struggle to find work in South Africa - the youth unemployment rate in South Africa is quite high. Having a matric certificate or even a university degree is no longer a good guarantee that matriculants will find work in South Africa.

Because Tony and I work from home as freelancers, and also earn a little extra income online, and believe that many others can also work from home, we have various work from home ideas and tips for people on 4 of our sites:

I enjoy writing, web design, WordPress (.org), SEO, photography, blogging, parenting, and movies.

I appreciate and like honest and down to earth people and those who try hard at all they do.

Besides writing for clients, writing for my own sites and blogs, and writing for HubPages, I also sometimes enjoy writing for (and earning from) other writing sites like Factoidz and Constant Content, but most of my online writing is added to my own sites.

Bookmarking sites I can earn from: 

I don't bother with too much bookmarking, but I sometimes like to use Best-Reviewer

I'm happy to be on HubPages, and I'm happy to be working from home, even though paying monthly bills and living expenses is still sometimes a struggle.  Just about anyone can work from home if they really want to, and if they put in the effort.
