With only two months of operation, our blog has been a huge success.

This site monetized by Google AdSense and only adsense. It was a tough choice but we dropped text-link-ads, simply because of how it can hurt our Google rankings. This choice worked out fairly well as we a total revenue of $26.89 for the month. That works out to around $0.92/day.

Although we have seen a strong increase, our goal for March is to hit $50/month. I think it is very doable and I’m confident that we will be able to accomplish it.

Expenses were $6.95 a month for hosting.
We recently added Kontera as another method of advertising revenue and our March Report will feature that. We expect steady growth for March.

How much traffic is your blog receiving? I wonder what the correlation is between traffic and revenue is, given all other things equal.

About 60-100 Uniques per day.

Consider relevant affiliate offers, with the beginning of the new year my adsense revenue hasn't been what it used to be. Many others have had the same thing happen, and some speculate it's because of their stock prices not meeting expectation, as well as the coming recession.

I do a lot better with affiliate revenue anyway, like 5x better when it comes to the numbers.

For this traffic level, it seems like you're getting a bit higher per click than I do on my site but it's also probably due to the different niche. I average about $6 a day on adsense but that's off 1100-1600 uniques per day and about 7000 pageviews per day.

Nice job though. Congrats.

7 Hours a week writing blog posts, average one 1 per day sometimes two. I spend about 2 hours a day marketing, promoting, and getting tons of backlinks and developing our target keywords.
