When I posted my October income report, I really thought that was about as far back as I could possibly go. Well, I was wrong. This month’s income is even worse, and I have to admit that I don’t have high hopes for December at this juncture.
First, the numbers; short indeed:
Adsense – $50.62
Google Affiliate Network – $3.07
Infolinks – $7.90
If there’s any bonus for the month, it’s the strong jump in income from Infolinks. What I decided to do early in November is add it to my Medical Billing Answers site on a trial basis. Seems it’s working, and I’m going to leave it there for now. I also decided to add it to my Smoke Not So Much site as well, but that site generated almost nothing. However, that site did generate its first Adsense money in November, so maybe it’s close to being ready to start generating something positive.
I guess the good news is that I’ll be getting an Adsense check at the end of the month; who-hoo! I probably need to figure out a better way to drive people to my sales page, which is highlighted by me holding that parrot on the right, as well as figure out how to drive more people to my other sales pages, if I’m going to continue doing this stuff. At least this blog sent 6 people there in November, Commission Junction should be bringing in nice money; I know I’m doing it all wrong, though.
And that’s that; let’s see what the final month of our first decade in the 21st century has in store for me.
My stats are down as well Mitch, but like you infolinks was up. Also I notice your adsense is still beating mine all to hell. One day I’ll catch up 😀

I figure my stats were down because of the holiday, which means it’s going to happen again during Christmas. Oh well…
That’s OK. It will give us time to relax and be merry. 😀
Oh, and I got an email notification, so I reckon you chose the right plugin.

Great; thanks Sire.
Yup, you’re correct on that one Dennis.
Hi Mitch,
Good that you are seeing nice nos. in Infolinks. I never did like it simply because I find it makes my pages unsightly with all those underlined links. Anyway since it is working for you, that shouldn’t be a problem. Money speaks heh 🙂

I don’t disagree with you that it’s ugly, Peter. Truthfully, I don’t think it works well on blogs. But it’s working well on my one information site, and I’ll take that for now.
