As I predicted, the last quarter of 2008 would be little hectic for me to work on my blogs, and that started reflecting in my online earnings as well. You could sense that when I am posting my October earnings almost at the end of November.
UK Immigration on Tier 1 has proved to be a good decision for me. Fortunately, I could get into a job I like very quickly and like any job - it takes little time to settle down initially leaving little room for other activities.
Due to time crunch, my review orders slowed down but surprisingly direct text sale increased. I realized that this blog has become quite popular now, and advertised approached me directly and those deals materialized so I did not need to spend lot of time on webmaster forums. I am hoping to see similar orders for reviews as well for all my blogs. That would save lot of time in internet marketing :).
Without wasting lot of time, let me share my October earnings with you.
October 2008 earning breakup
- Private Sales like reviews, textlinks, banners: $955.39
- Google Adsense Revenue: $307.50 [Almost same as before]
- CPC programs like YPN, Adbrite, Infolinks: $538.33 [Drop of 15-25% than last month].
- Affiliate Sales, Misc checks: $207.00 [YSM program had closed last month, so it's a huge drop for me in affiliate program, but this month it seems to be started again and probably started giving away Yahoo £50 Credit Voucher again. I need to check the details of available coupons again, and post it for you.
Total Earnings of August 2008: $2008.22
Total Earning of 2008 [From 1st Jan 2008 to 30th Sep 2008]: $22,558.49 - Courtesy: Money meter
Target in remaining two months of 2008, Nov and Dec is - $2441.51
I would still need to work harder, specially looking at slow down in November earnings - not because of credit crunch but time crunch
