How to Place the AdSense Ads for the Best Earnings

May 11, 2012 – 11:46 AM No Comment | 7 views

For me, Google AdSense remains the best money making tool as a professional blogger. However, simply putting a banner “wherever” on your blog is certainly not the way to do it to get more money blogging. As strange as it might sound, how to place the AdSense banners on your blog is really important and [...]

How Much Money I Made from Blogging in October 2011

Submitted by on November 1, 2011 – 9:48 AM3 Comments | 55 views

Another month has passed and it’s time for my monthly income report for the month of October 2011. If you’re curious to know how much money did I make from blogging this last month, you’ll see all the stats below and we’ll analyze them a little bit since some really interesting things happened. Here is the image report of my main income source, Google Adsense:

Before analyzing, let’s see the totals: how much money I made from blogging in October 2011:

Google Adsense: 690.39 EUR ($955.26)
In-text ads: $195.78
CPM banners: $122.16
Affiliate sales: $59.42

TOTAL: $1,332.62

Unfortunately for me, this is about $200 lower than last month, with big drops coming from AdSense and Affiliate sales. However, I am not panicking: even though the hated Google Panda update might be a reason for the drop of AdSense income (even though traffic did not decline significantly), there are a few reasons for the even lower total earnings this month:

- first and most important, I took 1 week off from blogging this month and 7 days of no content do matter!
- I have launched no less than 4 new blogs in the past two months part of a strategy revamp which will hopefully pay off. However, this meant that my existing blogs received less content and promotion and this is seen in the revenue reports.
- I have stopped selling one affiliate product and that’s why the loss is there.

Blogging plans for November 2011

This month I will continue to work on my newly launched blogs and promote them and I’ll also try to start monetize them, while also trying to keep content fresh on the existing, established blogs that I own. I have already purchased a bunch of articles (since guest posting can’t be expected on a fresh blog, I had to actually buy some content for my new blogs) and hopefully they will start to pay off.

Financially, I hope that in November I will get back on track and once again reach the $1,500 income mark from my blogs. And hopefully, I’ll only go upwards from here on.
