Health Blog : Income Report for the month of October 2009

Chris — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 10:33:57 +0000

Last month I blogged about how much one money one Health blog can make alone in 15 days without adsense. I am very much excited to share result of the same Health Blog for the month of October 2009. Only change made was I added Kontera Intext Advertising which made around $8600 with the past project which i started long ago. Out of my surprise this experiment was successful and once again i made good money with In-Text Advertising.

Last month i had set target of making around $2500 from this Blog & Finally ended up making $2641, which is huge achievement according to me. I have mentioned below the break up of income. Network wise along with the screen shot for each of them which will clear all the doubts in the minds of people who thought that one blog could not make $2500 in one month.

Kontera Technologies : $477

Burst Media : $475

Value Click Media : $1299

Ybarnt Digital Network : $390

All together Kontera made $477 apart from 1-2 days when there was some serious problem with the Hosting company. Kontera report approximate 350k Net Impressions for the month of October 2009. I was very much Excited to see additional $500 coming my way just by doing some normal changes on the blog to attract In-Text advertising in the eyes of my Health Blog readers.

For the very first time Burst Media Reporter over 2 Million Impressions with 957 Clicks. Out of 2 Million total Impressions 1.6 Million Impressions were Paid which made me really Excited this time. eCPM was also not that bad which supported me to make money in good way. So finally i was very happy with my decision of starting Burst Media advertising on my blog.

Value Click Media which was one my Favorite advertising network made $1299 with almost 1.5 Million Impressions. I have kept all of their advertising Banner above fold across 5k Pages of my blog which is getting more then 15k to 20k Unique visitors on daily basis. If your sites have more then 2000 visitors on daily basis you can apply to Value Click Media or approach me i can get it approved for you guys.

Last but not least Ybrant Digital Network reported 1.6 Million Impressions with the revenue of $390. I was little disappointed with the eCPM & Cost per Click which i got & planning to replace this network with advertising.com from where i got offer last week.

I hope i can scale Higher next month with the same Health blog. Let’s see what happens ??

As far as Kontera performance is concerned it made near about 1 Million Impressions with great Ecpm & Earnings. From my past experiences i have been always telling bloggers that Kontera works very well as far as content based websites are concerned & the results which you see is unbelievable. I always recommend Kontera for the Bloggers who have recetly started their career in online industry and have around 1k visitors on daily basis.

Last month same websites made $2188 & this month, together they made $2686 which is very Impressive according to me what you guys think about it ?? Let me know your thoughts about it.

July Month Rocking – Kontera + Adsense – $2188

Chris — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 09:31:37 +0000

Finally Asia & Europe Travel website has successfully completed 1st month of making money. It has made $1016 from Kontera & $1171 from Google Adsense. I am totally surprised looking at the Adsense Performance of last week of July where website made around $800 in just 7 days. Over all Impressions for the month was around 900,000 & i am expecting website to make 1 Million ++ Impressions in coming month.

Adsense is working exceptionally well with Travel niche. I has never expected that just in span of 15 days adsense will make $1171. Blending plays most important role in order to optimize Adsense revenue. Current website is doing really well & now i am looking forward to see result of this month.

July 3rd Week Rocks – Kontera + Adsense = $472

Chris — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 09:42:43 +0000

Looking at the Success of July 1st Week & 2nd Week, I decided to Implement Google Adsense on this Travel Website & out of my Surprise it made $472 in last 7 days which again $100 more then Last week’s Earnings. As far as Kontera earnings were concerned i saw little down trend which got covered by Google Adsense Effectively. At the end of the week combined results were positive. Google Adsense is high payer as far as Travel Niche is concerned for around 10k Impressions & Clicks i earned $268. Compared to last week traffic was around 4 to 6 Percent less on daily basis, inspite of less traffic Earnings were promising which is positive sign at this point of time. Main reason for less traffic was downfall in rankings for 2 major keywords, have made necessary changes in order to achieve rankings again let’s see what happens.

While I developed this website & launched in the month of Jan 2009, side by side i was developing few more websites related to various Travel places across the globe, one of them is Africa related website on which i have Implemented Kontera Yesterday & waiting to see the first week results, in coming days i will share my experience with regards to Traffic, Keywords & Income from Kontera. This website is very Informative & gives complete information about various aspects of Africa like How to reach, African History, Resources, Car rentals, African Culture, African Sports, Tours to various parts of africa, Entertainment in Africa etc etc. In all website has 87 pages of Rich content & user friendly navigation.

It has total of 1000 web pages quique content written by Travel writers, which includes top most places to see across Europe, Asia & their specialities. It took 4 months of real planning & hardwork with regards to Designing & content development, before i launched it in the month of January 2009. On daily basis around 4000 unique visitors comes on the website with approximate 40k Impressions. Most importantly i would like to share is that i implemented code once website reached 40k impressions on daily basis.
