After seeing many other blogs post their monthly blog income stats, I’ve decided to do this too on this home business blog for 2 reasons. Firstly if you want to make money blogging, you really need a way to keep track of how your blog is performing in terms of income generation. Only then can you focus on specific areas that need more attention and changes so that you ultimately achieve consistent blog income growth.
Secondly, it goes well with this blog‘s mission which is sharing with others whatever changes, tweaks I have done or will do to increase my blog income. It may help some people in some small ways and fashion in their blog monetization efforts. It’s also giving this blog a more focused direction as it is growing steadily in terms of traffic and income.
Blog Statistics:
- 167 RSS Readers
- 3188 Visits
- 6,945 Pageviews
- Technorati Rank: 37,135
- Technorati Auth: 118
- Alexa: 80763
- Inbound links: 13,071
Traffic from search engines amounts to 43% while referring sites and blogs contributed 34% and 23% come from direct traffic. I guess I’m quite pleased with the search engine traffic and it shows that my seo work on this blog is starting to take effect. I haven’t done any study to determine what is a good ratio among these 3 components of statistics. But I did check up one reputable blog of Caroline-Middlebrook just for comparison and she had hers as 45:29:26 for Feb month. So I guess I’m not too bad for now.
Blog Income:
- Private Advertising: $12
- Affiliate Marketing: $30
- Text Link Ads: $16.72
- Backlinks Ads: $12.00
- Squidoo: $1.02
- Links Transaction: $90.00
- eBooks: $47.00
Total Revenue: $208.74
Private Advertising and text link ads continue to generate my blog income and I hope it continues. I’d like to thank everyone who may have purchased advertising or contributed to my blog income one way or another.
My immediate focus is to increase my affiliate commission and I found an alternative to Google Adsense for this blog towards the end of February. It looks like a very good affiliate program to increase my blog income with.
How much money did you make off your blog in February?
