Here is a breakdown of my income for March 2011. .
Google Adsense – $181.79
Affiliate Income – $295
Brokered Ads – $41
Direct Ads – $231.55
Ehow – $11.01
Amazon – $15.54
Ebay – $9.54
Total – $785.43
My online income increased from the month before so I won’t complain. I believe that if I work on my sites consistently I will make over $1000 a month by the end of the year. I have had a dry spell for affiliate income though and need to fix that. I’d like affiliate income to make up the lion’s share of my income because I think it has more upside potential than Adsense or ads.
I really enjoy seeing these breakdowns so I can get an idea of what AdSense, affiliates, etc., realistically pay. As a new blogger, this is very enlightening information! Thank you for posting it!
I agree with Paula – this information is so helpful and I appreciate your transparency in sharing it. If you don’t mind my asking, was this your income from one site or multiple sites?
Thanks for sharing your stats, for me brokered ads make up the vast majority of my income.
Is that just from this site? or do you have others?
Hey Everyone. The income is from multiple sites. Right now I have three sites that contribute the vast majority of the income plus another site that adds a little. I also have a few sites that don’t make anything that I hope to get making money later this year.
That’s a pretty high amount of Amazon income. That’s affiliate stuff right? I have barely made a Dollar the entire year I’ve used them. Any tips on improving?
I report my income when it is actually paid so that is several month’s income from Amazon. I only make about $10 – $20 a year from them. I got lucky on this one since somebody ordered a Kindle after clicking on one of my book links.
