Share the Money With Us – Creating and growing a successful blog
February has come and gone. Another month trying to break into the online earning industry. Another month of improvements and another month of experience gained.
This past month was an interesting one. I’ve been online making money now for over a year, and this is the first time I’ve ever used Yahoo Publisher Network consistently. I can say that for the most part it performed at a higher level than Adsense. The fluctuations wig me out and confuse the crap out of me. But at the end of the day it’s only the numbers in the total column that matter.
February also marks the first full month I have expanded with Adbrite. I was using Adbrite dating back to mid December, but only started experimenting with interstitial ads this month.
To start things off, I want to discuss briefly my Adsense earnings for February. My total Adsense earnings for the month were $124, down from $352 in January. The main reason for the drop was of course me moving one of my bigger sites to YPN. Another reason for the lower Adsense earnings is because College football season is now over. Fight Song Lyrics earned $150 in January alone, mostly because it was bowl season. Fight Song Lyrics only earned $55 this month. I can expect similar earnings from this site until August when football kicks off again.
Now onto Yahoo Publisher Network. Pimp Myspace is the only site I have running on YPN. In January while running with Adsense, this site made $122, but in February wilth a full month on YPN it made $377. A nice $250 increase. There were no drastic increases in traffic either.
In the next coming months I hope to incorporate YPN into more of my sites.
The final revenue machine I use for my websites is Adbrite. Adbrite was very good to me this month as well. In January, Adbrite earnings were $24. This is running just on Pimp Myspace and not using interstitial ads. In February, total Adbrite earnings were $100. Like I said, no drastic increases in traffic or ad placement. PRetty much just adding interstitials.
So total February earnings from these 3 streams: $124 + $377 + $100 = $601
That come’s to $21/day. An increase from where I was, but still a long way from where I want to be. I’d like to increase my earnings by an average of $5/day each month. That means when I calculate my March earnings, I need to be at $26/day.
Wish me luck.

2Things look like they are going great for you, mate. I should sign up for YPN for my arcade site. I might just switch SciFreak over too if I do get accepted.

6Just wondering, what about text link income? I notice you have sponsored posts – are you going to include this in your calculations or are you keeping blog revenue private?

7Paul – I sell sponsored blog posts for $5 each. I’m guessing I’ve sold maybe 15 or so in February, so that’s $75.
This post I was strictly doing contextual earnings.
Thanks for the comments.

10Looks like things are really beginning roll David. Just keep plugging away. It’s easy to say it’s not much money, but look at the percentage gains over such a short time. You could never make those kinds of percentage gains on a day job salary.
