After doing pretty good in the month of February 2008, I was pretty confident that I would cross $60,000 mark for the month of March 2008. So, the month is gone and its the earnings report time again. I know its pretty late for the report, but I was kind of busy with something else.
In the month of March 2008, I crossed the $60,000/month mark for the first time. I am pretty excited about it. In march I made $61,343.62 in total from various advertising networks and advertisers for all of my sites (around 200 of them) combined.
Here is the screenshot.
Here are few points about the earnings:
The biggest earner still remains Adsense. I did some banner tweaking on some of my sites and I did pretty well with adsense. I did around $36,780 with adsense as compared to $31,611 in February.
With Kontera I crossed $7,000 mark last month. This month I crossed the $8,000 mark with them ($8,327 this month). I am planning to cross $9,000 for the month of April.
My medical affiliate programs combined (LECash, Market Health and Sytropin) were the third best for me doing $8,316.
Other big earners were Casale Media, Burst Media, Text Link Ads, Click Bank and NeverBlueAds.
To compare my earnings with my previous months:
March 2008: $61,343.62 (this month)
February 2008: $55,123
January 2008: $47,740
December 2007: $41,300
November 2007: $45,000
October 2007: $41,900
Septebmer 2007: $40,000
How much are my expenses on these sites?
My expenses in terms of hosting (2 dedicated servers and 8 shared) and domain registrations are at around $1,000. Other expenses like SEO, outsourcing etc. are another $1,000 or so.
What am I expecting from April 2008?
Here are the few things I am planning/doing for April 2008:
Planning to cross $65,000 in earnings for sure. But will target for around $70,000.
Will buy some 2 or 3 good sites to try to reach that $70,000 mark.
Will cross $9,000 with Kontera.
Will also focus more on Indian related sites and will monetize them more with local advertising networks like Axill India.
Focus more on affiliate networking.
How was the month of March for you? Did you do well? As expected?
