How much money can a Flash programmer make from Flash game developing?

Flash game developer make money?
Since start blogging about making money as a Flash developer, I've been filtering the big question of most of the Flash developers out-there: How much money can a game developer make as a freelancer? How much money can a Flash developer make by developing Ad-games? Join in-game-advertising networks? Let's start…

Most of the Flash technology programmers in the world were in some point of her life in the situation where they had to decide: Should I go into casual games developing? This issue was on my mind as a Flash site developer since it’s all about finance questions – How much money will I make if I'll stop developing crappy Flash sites and start develop amazing casual games.
If you try to calculate how much will you exactly make – you're heading the wrong way.

Ask yourself first:

1. Can I run my own business?
2. Can I work from home?
3. Do I have the ability to work alone, in professionalism matters?

4. Am I ready to get into the online life of MySpace/Faceboook/NewGrounds/Xpogames etc…? (If you just said: "Huh?" them forget the rest, you're not ready!).
Check out these few facts:
1. There are special portals for game developers: Kongregate, Armor Games, Miniclip etc. Use them.
2. Mochiads (and Google with new bet testing) can supply advertisers for any Flash game. You get paid per click (for 1000 gameplayes, you'll get around $1).
3. Developing games in Flash is the easiest way (the easiest, not 'easy') to get into the game development world.

Socialize and expose your flash game, in order to get sponsored and profitable Flash game in the long run

If you're creating a real cool Flash game, you should think of ways to monetize your game, which means - how do I make any money from my work? From the Flash game I've developed...
Well, first of all
1. Login to the social networks, gaming social network that is, for casual gamers and games developers.
2. Then, you can choose, change and update your developer profile. Take under consideration that many potential users(gamers) and games developing companies will see your page, make it cool, understandable, sell your self!
3. Upload games - you can use one of the site's contests or just upload your game and start making money for it's exposure..
4. Take advantage of the different businesses modal these sites/contests offers for Flash games developers: a. Sponsorship - they pay several (only pro's) Flash games developers in order to be the only link from the game open screen (as Armorgames does for many years now).b. They give you Google Adsense place for your ads, around your games (which is suppose to be the perfect online money making program ever).c. They let you advertise inside the game itself (Mochiads etc.).
Sounds great!?!Let the games begin...
