October Stats

by Sapphire (November 1, 2006)

My total earnings for October were $264.81 - a combination of ad sales, affiliate sales and PayPerPost.  Which means my average earnings over the last three months were about $245 per month.  In the three months before that, it was about $110.

I’ve got $77 in ad sales to start the month, which is a little bit weak.  But I’ve also got a plan to earn over $300 per month, not including affiliate sales.  It involves ad sales and PayPerPost, and the bulk of the money will come from Project Mai Tai and Project Taffy.  Actually, I have a few others bringing in surprising amounts, but those are the ones I’ll be able to do lots of PPP posting, and that really ads up.

Of course, the dream is still to get my affiliate sales up, but the methods I’m using aren’t working.  I think I’m a couple of years behind the times - in the past you could just build this and do that and tweak it as time went by, and in time the sales would rise. Now something else is required, and I’m not sure what.  But that’s why I’m incorporating posts with affiliate links into these sites I’m currently building.  Maybe the answer is that thin affiliate sites just can’t cut it anymore, so it really needs to be combined with content, and be all-original content in the copy.

We’ll see!
