Affiliates Tested

Well, not a bad week. Some earnings from Amazon affiliate links, and even some cash from putting adverts in my RSS feeds.

Adsense: $1.66
Scratchback: $0.00.
Widgetbucks: $0.00.
Amazon Affiliates: $1.32
Squidoo: $0.00.
Total $2.96 for the week.

$12.12 for 10 weeks work.

So I'm aiming for a dollar a day from each site. And I'm getting just over a dollar a week from 5 sites.

Well, here are the figures:

Adsense: $3.87.
Scratchback: $0.00.
Widgetbucks: $0.00.
Amazon Affiliates: $0.00.
Squidoo: $0.00.

$6.64 for 8 weeks work

My best Adsense week since starting this tracking, and it mainly appears to have come from one blog, which I tweaked recently to have bigger Google Adsense adverts in a more prominent position for eyeballs.

I actually implemented it before last week's report - when I earned a record $0.00. And that's despite the fact traffic has been similar for both weeks, so either it took a week to really start to kick in, or I've just been lucky - the next couple of weeks should tell!

Well, things really have fallen apart this week. Whether it's the credit crunch and economic recession, or some other disaster, I don't know, but I've earnt nothing. Zero. Zip. Nada. Zilch.

Adsense: $0.00.
Scratchback: $0.00.
Widgetbucks: $0.00.
Amazon Affiliates: $0.00.
Squidoo: $0.00.

The irony being that I've actually moved a couple of ad placements for what should have been an increase in responses!

So the total is: $2.77 for 7 weeks work
