I have decided that I can’t be bothered with the normal pre-amble bit this month so I will simply end it here and let you guys get on with reading what you have come here for, the income report.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for April stands at 3,173 which is a big decrease of 776 from the month of March.

The page impression count for April stands at 6,420, which is a big decrease of 619 from the month of March.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.70 pages.

My bounce rate has dropped from 78.25 to 72.92.

- Traffic dropped quite considerably during March and to be honest I’m at a loss as to why this happen. I spent quite a bit of time pushing my posts and blog on Facebook groups which accessed almost 1,000,000 active users. I dropped back on blog commenting so maybe that is why the traffic dropped off.

UnderDog = $0.35 (+$0.29)
Zapunited = $0.13 (-$0.04)

Total = $695.09 (+$40.96)

- PulsePoint stopped displaying ads on the blog for the past two months, I’m working on getting it restored.

- I saw a drop in review amount because although I did quite a few sponsored posts I am still waiting for payment from a lot of them, some review networks pay quicker than others.

I think it is fair to say that 2012 hasn’t exactly welcomed me with open arms so far but I am hopeful that March will be the catalyst to finally kickstart me and maybe, just maybe, I can get my life back to some kind of normality.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for March stands at 3,949 which is an increase of 889 from the month of February.

The page impression count for March stands at 7,039, which is a big increase of 2,122 from the month of February.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.54 pages.

My bounce rate has dropped from 76.05% to 78.25.

- It was nice to see my traffic stats back on track and there was no problem with Google Analytic disabling itself this month.

This blog, and me earning money online, would not be possible if it was not for those awesome folk over at Bluehost. If you are looking for quality, reliable and cheap hosting then I urge you to check them out today.

I wanted to start this post by addressing something that I mentioned in my last blog income report. I announced a couple of tragedies that had happened to me at the start of 2012 and I just wanted to say that I received so many nice comments, emails and Twitter messages from people wishing me well that I just wanted to say thank you, it really made me smile.

I was hoping that February was going to be better but sadly this didn’t pan out that way, February is normally a bad month for me anyway (normally just behind December) but this month was hit by a couple of problems related to the blog.

First of all Google Analytic disabled itself from the blog so I lost nearly two week’s worth of stats so now my monthly stats look really low and I broke my laptop so I was unable to finish as much work as I was expecting to.

But I’ll soldier on regardless.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for February stands at 3,060 which is an increase of 604 from the month of January.

The page impression count for February stands at 4,917, which is a decrease of 121 from the month of January.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.61 pages.

My bounce rate has dropped from 67.89% to 76.05.

- I can’t help but wonder what the final tally would be if I had not lost 14 days of stats.

2012 hasn’t exactly started the way that I wanted it to. A quick eye over the stats in this blog income report will tell you that I didn’t concentrate on my online dealings in January as I was hit with some personal problems. I don’t want to highlight them all here but it involved the end of a two year relationship and the loss of my first child who was aborted at 3 months.

People who know me will tell you that I’m a tough son of a bitch and I’ll keep fighting no matter what people throw at me.

And without further ado let’s get on with the meat of the matter.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for January stands at 2,456, which is a huge decrease of 1,060 from the month of December.

The page impression count for January stands at 5,038, which is a big decrease of 1,478 from the month of December.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.68 pages.

My bounce rate has dropped from 67.89% to 71.74.

I don’t think anyone will be surprised to see I have dropped a lot of traffic after what I have had to deal with offline in January. Hopefully when I get my head together I’ll be able to put this right again in February or maybe March.

- ZapUnited is a new network that I am trying out.

- I hit a bit of good fortune with my private advertising in January. I really hope that is not a fluke.

- Half of the private writing amount came from some clients I’d done work for several weeks ago, nice to see they FINALLY got round to paying me.

Wow 2011 just flew by didn’t it? It seems like only last week I was writing about my goals for 2011 back in January 2011 and now I am about to set out my goals for 2012.

December was always going to be a slow month for me, not only does it mean less work being offered but I couldn’t devote as much time to writing due to getting ready and visiting people over the holidays. So I was expecting my income to be rather low.

Still I managed to publish 13 articles on this blog and I forfilled my writing obligations before I increase my fee. I was going to do that last month but thought I’d best wait until I got the current assignments out of the way first.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for December stands at 3,516, which is a decrease of 258 from the month of November.

The page impression count for December stands at 6,516, which is a decrease of 312 from the month of November.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.85 pages.

My bounce rate has improved slightly from 70.48% to 67.89%.

- Although I have dropped in both unique traffic and page impressions I really can not grumble about it because I have taken way too much time off from this blog.

TLA = $4.00 (Re-added)
UnderDog = $1.16 (+$0.88)

Total = $605.25 (-$28.69)

- I gave Clicksor another chance last month and they repaid me by displaying ads that redirected pretty much every time people visited for a couple of days until I removed them. They have been allowing this to happen for 7+ years, and they refuse to deal with it.

They have now lost me as a publisher.

- My slow phase out of Traffic Revenue is now complete, like Clicksor they were more than happy to turn a blind eye to redirecting ads and ads that installed malicious programs. I value my visitors to much to continue using them.

- Starting today I’m putting up my prices, I hope my Private Writing income doesn’t drop too low now.

My Targets For January

Break 4,000 & 7,000 Traffic Barriers – I did not acheive this last month but I think if I get back into the swing of things then I should be able to break the 4,000 barrier for unique hits and 7,000 barrier for page impressions during January.

Lower My Bounce Rate – As I said last month my bounce rate is something I have never really bothered with but according to other more experienced bloggers it is something I should be looking to lower in the not too distant future. Apparently below 50% is the aim?

Increase Passive Writing – Although I am happy with the $17+ a month I roughly get I think I should push on with this and try and hit $20 a month. I’m going to start publishing one article a week to InfoBarrel and Hubpages.

Increase My Freelancing Fee – I said I would do it last month but I didn’t think it was quite the right time when I had a lot of asignments left to complete. Now I have finished them I shall increase my fee.

This blog, and me earning money online, would not be possible if it was not for those awesome folk over at Bluehost. If you are looking for quality, reliable and cheap hosting then I urge you to check them out today.

December is now upon us and Christmas is well and truly underway in my household, I’ve taken to seeking refuge in my office to keep out of the way and pretend it isn’t happening. I’m not a Christmas person at all.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for November stands at 3,774, which is another nice increase of 569 from the month of October.

The page impression count for November stands at 6,818, which is a massive increase of 1,253 from the month of October.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.81 pages.

My bounce rate has improved slightly from 73.35% to 70.48%.

- I am really pleased to see that I managed to increase both unique traffic and page impressions by over 500 and 1000 respectively. I thought October was a fluke but thankfully that doesn’t seem to be true.

Traffic Revenue = $0.18 (-$0.16)
UnderDog = $0.28 (+$0.07)

Total = $633.94 (+$25.16)

- I am going to stop using Traffic Revenue because they are displaying far too many ads that are redirecting my readers to other sites. I’ve contacted them and they have tried to solve the problem but I can’t risk losing more traffic.

- Clicksor have been given another run by me. I wanted to replace Traffic Revenue and thought I’d give Clicksor another shot. They doing OK for the amount of traffic & clicks I’m sending them.

- I’m going to start slowly scaling back on the amount of private writing that I am doing because I think I can do better than write 1000 word articles for $3-$5 a pop.

- My passive income took a slight nose dive but I did absolutely nothing to add to it last month.

- I seem to have struck a cord with a post that was posted in October about the five most successful business ideas in history, three of the top five search terms were linked to that blog post.

- My favourite search term last month was ‘how to look cute while sitting around the house’ I have no idea what they thought my blog was about but I hope they were not too disappointed.

My Targets For December

Break 4,000 & 7,000 Traffic Barriers – I will try and reach or break the 4,000 barrier for unique hits and 7,000 barrier for page impressions. I think this will be rather easy to achieve if I continue to do what I have been doing the past couple of months.

Lower My Bounce Rate – My bounce rate is something that I have never really bothered with but according to other more experienced bloggers it is something I should be looking to lower in the not too distant future.

Get Back To Passive Writing – I have neglected my passive writing articles lately (articles I have written for publication on article sites that generate passive income for me) so I think writing one article a week for Hubpages, InfoBarrel and Bukisa is a good place to start.

Increase My Freelancing Fee – Since I started freelancing I have been working for peanuts, receiving maybe $5 at the most for 500+ articles, this is because of the amount of people willing to undercut each other just for an extra Buck. No more, from today I’m putting my prices up and to hell if I don’t make another dime.

This blog, and me earning money online, would not be possible if it was not for those awesome folk over at Bluehost. If you are looking for quality, reliable and cheap hosting then I urge you to check them out today.

November will hopefully mark a new chapter in my life as I am waiting for some news to come through. I won’t announce it right now in case it doesn’t materialise but I will say that it will mean big changes for me and my online work.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for October stands at 3,205, which is a lovely increase of 599 from the month of September.

The page impression count for October stands at 5,565, which is a big increase of 741 from the month of September.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.74 pages.

My bounce rate has jumped from 66.03% to 73.35%.

- I am really pleased to see that I have beaten the 5,000 impression barrier, hopefully I can now set more goals like hitting 4,000 unique hits and 6,000 page impressions.

Traffic Revenue = $0.34 (+$0.07)
UnderDog = $0.21 (+$0.18)

Total = $608.78 (+$92.28)

- Still not happy with Underdog, I gave them over 6,000 hits this past month and 15 clicks and only got $0.21. But then again it is the same with Adbrite & Smowtion. One of them I delivered over 40 clicks and still made no difference.

- I have really been digging in with the reviews this month and I have money that is owed that will be paid during November so that is nice to look forward to.

- It is nice to see that the passive writing income is starting to increase. $15 a month may not sound good but it is a good place to start.

It is a lot later than normal but I have finally gotten around to writing the monthly income report for September. A lot has happened to me in the past month which is why I have not been as active as I promise, culminating in the end of my engagement and relationship to my fiance.

But I am back now so on we go with the details.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for September stands at 2,606, which is an increase of 151 from the month of August.

The page impression count for September stands at 4,824, which is a decrease of 35 from the month of August.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.85 pages.

My bounce rate has dropped from 66.03% to 65.92%.

It is nice to see that despite me not being active on the blog I am still getting a decent amount of traffic, those long hours blog commenting are really paying off.

- I don’t think it will shock anyone to see that Underdog have gone back to paying me peanuts again.

No list this time, I’ll try to include it next time.

This blog, and me earning money online, would not be possible if it was not for those awesome folk over at Bluehost. If you are looking for quality, reliable and cheap hosting then I urge you to check them out today.

August was a month where I did quite a bit of travelling. I went to Plymouth for two weekend breaks and I spent a weekend in Manchester, so I am quite surprised that I managed to still find the time to make any money this month and publish any content.

Not only that but I managed to smash my traffic records for this blog since installing Google Analytic. And I earnt more than last month!

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for August stands at 2,455, which is a big increase of 570 from the month of July.

The page impression count for August stands at 4,859, which is another huge increase of 701 from the month of July.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 1.98 pages.

My bounce rate has increased from 63.24% to 66.03%.

ContextWeb (AdsDaq) = $0.71 (+$0.07)
Fidelity Media (AdJuggler) = $0.20 (+$0.02)
Passive Income = $9.62 (+$0.17)
Private Writing = $350.00 (-$10.00)
Reviews = $148.88 (+$57.88)
Smowtion = $0.24 (-$0.02)
TLA = $4.00 (+/-$0.00)
Traffic Revenue = $0.26 (+$0.05)
Twitter = $0.00 (-$0.00)
UnderDog = $6.92 (+$6.89)

Total = $520.91 (+$55.06)

- UnderDog really shocked me this month, I was so ready to ditch them and they responded by giving me more this month than I have earnt with them since I started using them. I hope it continues next month.

- My passive income is really starting to take off and I could not be more happier.

July was a month where I actually did some work. I know, I can’t believe it either, shock horror! The fruits of my labour will not show that much in this month’s income report though because I will not receive the money until some time in August, so it will appear in the next one.

Page Impressions & Visitor Count

The unique visitor count for July stands at 1,885, which is a big increase of 413 from the month of June.

The page impression count for July stands at 4,158, which is a MASSIVE increase of 1,117 from the month of June.

This means that each unique visitor looked at 2.21 pages.

My bounce rate has dropped a tiny bit from 63.99% to 63.24%.

- I am DELIGHTED to see both my unique hits and my page impressions have risen by a big chunk. I can only hope that this is something that will continue; maybe I can reach the 2,000 and 4,500 marks respectively next month?

- It was good to see that despite a drop in private writing I still managed to earn more than I did last month.

- I’m not sure what is going on with Underdog. I deliver over a 1,000 more impressions than last month and you still pay me LESS? What the hell?!

- I’m please to see my Passive Income is starting to take off. I used a few new methods which helped spike the income; I’ll publish a post about it sometime this month.
